Understanding the Self-Hypnosis Process
Self-hypnosis is a simple yet powerful way to create positive change by working with your subconscious mind. Unlike stage hypnosis, it’s a calm, guided process that helps you reach a deeply relaxed state while staying fully aware and in control. In this state, your mind becomes more open to helpful ideas and positive suggestions that support your goals.
How Self-Hypnosis Helps the Subconscious Mind
During a self-hypnosis session, the conscious mind—the part that analyses and worries—begins to quieten. This allows direct communication with the subconscious, where beliefs, habits, and emotional responses are stored. Positive suggestions can then be gently introduced to replace old, limiting patterns with new, more supportive ones.
What to Expect During a Self-Hypnosis Session
A typical session involves finding a comfortable place, closing your eyes, and following a calming voice that guides you into relaxation. Gentle breathing, visualisation, and affirmations are often used to deepen the experience. As you relax, you may feel lighter, calmer, and more focused—a sign your subconscious is open and responsive.
What are the Benefits of regular self-hypnosis practice?
With regular use, self-hypnosis can help reduce stress, improve confidence, support better sleep, and break unwanted habits. Each session builds on the last, helping you create lasting, positive change at your own pace.
