Hypnotherapy
Every practitioner of hypnotherapy has his or her own vision of this mystical art. Brain wave measurement does not adequately reflect the phenomenon that allows us to put our conscious mind aside and invite our unconscious, our higher wisdom, and maybe all time and space and consciousness in.
I
have been fortunate to see auras when my clients go into trance, and even
more fortunate that, as I change my vibration, they often follow, so that
I often do not have to use a formal induction to work with them.
Once in trance, what they have discovered for themselves has been astounding. "Other lives," "entities," "long lost loved ones," "guides"... one woman even danced with her cancer. I believe that our creative imagination is engaged in wondrous ways and that all of this might simply be metaphors. But they are metaphors that heal.
I once told my friend, fellow hypnotherapist Timothy Trujillo, that I wanted people to know that they aren't limited by their names and their jobs and their cultures and the bad things that might have happened to them. That they "aren't what they think they are." He smiled, hesitated just a second, and then corrected me. "People are exactly what they think they are."
Either way -- as in the saying "whether you think you can or you think you can't, you're right," — we're both right. It's entirely up to you and your willingness to use your unlimited imagination.
You'll find more about metaphors for healing in my articles, Sixth Sense and How We Deal With Fear and Get Unreal! and in my book, Journey to Alternity: Transformational Healing Through Stories and Metaphors.
