Unfortunately it is not that simple. Hypnosis can only help the mind do or achieve something it wants to do. If someone has a habit or way of thinking that they have had for many years, then it often takes some effort to break it, even if they want to.

Your point is well taken. More accurately, trance is all around, as your examples demonstrate; and yet not all trance is hypnosis. Marketers use many of the same techniques hypnotists use to bypass consious resistance, but to call that hypnosis is a semantic stretch, that doesnot ring true. During years of working night shift there were many mornings I arrived home without a recollection of my trip home. Was I entranced? Definitely. Was I hypnotized? No. There was no collaborative process between me and a hypnotist, there was no acceptable suggestion offered,and there was no intentional use of the trance state to achieve an outcome (three elements that differentiate trance from hypnosis). Is this just a matter of definitions? Yes, and it's important, because to equate all trance and social influence with hypnosis ("in one form or another") just muddies the definition of hypnosis.

]]> Comment on Can Hypnosis Change Habits? by Steve Harold - London Hypnotherapist http://hypnosisandbeyond.com/hypnosis/can-hypnosis-change-habits/#comment-344 Steve Harold - London Hypnotherapist Sat, 03 Nov 2007 13:47:32 +0000 http://hypnosisandbeyond.com/hypnosis/can-hypnosis-change-habits/#comment-344 I believe that many people use their imagination in a negative way... imagining what they don't want to have happen or what they fear the most. This is why they get anxious about let's say that speech in public. They imagine embarrassing themself and then based on this mental imagery develop anxiety and may lose sleep over it. Half the idea of hypnosis for me is the encouragement of using the imagination towards what you do want to have happen.... eg a successful speech.

It is as important HOW you talk as it is what you say. You should talk in a way that is passionate. If you sound even slightly disinterested, it can greatly effect the therapy. A person seems to be hyper sensitive to these things when in trance. Very good. It is as important HOW you talk as it is what you say. You should talk in a way that is passionate.
