YES Allright, this is a question that many people have thought about even after the second or third time they actually found themselves making changes easily. Everyone CAN be hypnotized and they do it naturally every day. We call it daydreaming, your mind was wandering, you were busy thinking, and so many other states of mind. Hypnosis is merely a special state of mind that makes things easier. Some people are too SCARED, DON'T UNDERSTAND or simply DO NOT WANT to be hypnotized in order to get rid of their problems. |

how they do this and using it to help them do something different.
NLP is used in education, business, sports, mental health, personal empowerment, relationships, and wherever people
want to expand the limits of their own thinking into new and more exciting places.

It feels a lot like a wonderful daydream and most people find it very relaxing. There is no magic or mind control other than the magic of your own mind finally taking control of your habits, beliefs and behaviors. Hypnosis allows you to recognize the direct and indirect ways that cigarettes used to be in control. Hypnosis allows you to take charge and run your own brain in a new way. There are a lot more details if you are interested! |
