WHAT IS HYPNOSIS?
Hypnosis is the art of leading someone into a trance state and then using the imagination to create experiences that are helpful for the client to overcome problematic issues. In the trance state, the subconscious can be offered new alternatives for behaviour and reality.
Since 2006, hypnosis has been recognized as a scientifically based method by the german "Scientific Advisory Board on Psychotherapy". Research suggests that in many ways the unconscious does not differentiate between vividly imagined and actually experienced situations, at least with regard to the effect of these imaginations. Thus, the effect-related work with the unconscious is the focus of hypnosis.
As a certified hypnotherapist, I can tell you that trance itself is a natural, and often occurring, relaxed state of mind.
