people who have addiction issues). People with
anger management issues can
use hypnosis as a method to control their impulses. Hypnosis gives people a way
to regain control over their lives and to mitigate the effects of explosive
outbursts that sometimes accompany a deficit of anger management skills.
Recover repressed memories
Repressed memories exist as the result of years of abuse as a child.
To protect
ourselves from these memories, we bury them deep in our subconsciousness.
While there is great controversy
around the hypothesis, there is sufficient
evidence to suggest that human beings are capable
of withholding information
from the consciousness mind as a type of prophylactic against the emotional
upheaval associated with past traumatic events. (See
section on regression
therapy).
Hypnotherapy can be used to retrieve these memories so that we can understand
the abuse we’ve suffered and how it has impacted our lives, as adults. It can also
be used to recover the happy memories that might have been erased due to an
accident or a fall, as well as the life skills, speech and motor skills that may be
lost to Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI).
Besides
these benefits, hypnotherapy allows people to enjoy happier lives by
improving their overall attitudes. When a person
undergoes hypnosis sessions,
they tend to be calmer and more confident.
Their relaxed mind frame makes them attractive people to be around. Hypnosis
also allows them to have clear minds, which enables them to be more creative
and successful in their professional lives, as well. Hypnotherapy is often used as
a path to success. Rather than directly leading people to success, it shows them
the path they should take to achieve it. If a lack of self confidence is the only
thing stopping someone from becoming successful in life, then hypnotherapy
can help them regain their self-confidence, so they can then take control of their
lives and live more fully.
