Hypnosis comes from the Greek word ‘ypnos’ which means sleep, due to the “trance-like state” of consciousness that one slips into during hypnosis. However, during hypnosis, the subject does not actually fall asleep or lose consciousness, and is fully aware of their surrounds the entire time. Hypnosis has been defined in various ways by different people. The most popular traditional view of hypnosis is a sleep or trance–like state.

A trance is a natural state which we all experience from time-to-time. Let’s take daydreaming, for example: When we daydream, we are mentally focused on some internal event, and we have decreased awareness of the things around us. In a trance, one’s attention is focused narrowly – on imagery, on internal events, on a spot on the ceiling, on the voice of the hypnotherapist, etc.

A state of relaxation and heightened suggestibility is often seen under these conditions and this is what hypnotherapists / health practitioners use for treating various problems that also have an underlying mental / emotional factor, such as weight gain due to emotional eating or smoking under times of stress.

Hypnotherapy is often applied in order to modify a subject’s behavior, emotional content and attitudes, as well as a wide range of conditions such as obesity, substance abuse, pain, ego, anxiety, stress, amnesia, phobias, and matters of performance.
