ARTICLES The Ideal Hypnosis Client How to get the most from your hypnosis I talk to people about hypnosis nearly every day. I have for over twenty years. It's great when I discover someone is a natural - the ideal hypnosis client. But more often it takes a measure of guidance to ready them for a great hypnosis experience. Here's how you can get the most from your hypnosis sessions. DESIRE WHAT YOU WISH FOR Do you truly want to achieve your goal? People often say, "I have to quit smoking" or "I've just got to lose this weight." Both statements imply need imposed by external requirements rather than by inner desire. 'Need' has little to do with desire, while 'want' is where desire blooms; it's the passion from within. If you have desire - really want something - then you're on your way to getting what you wish for. MAKE IT PERSONAL What's your motivation? Your number one reason should be self-directed. I love hearing people say, "I'm fed up with this habit" or "I'm ready for a change in life." These are strong, self-motivated declarations that will carry you to success. THINK ABOUT IT Have you taken time to think this through? Mental preparation is also very important. I define mental preparation as giving thought to what changes will take place once you've implemented a decision. How will your life be better? What are you prepared to do to see your goal realized? Practicing self-hypnosis should be part of the process. It requires only 3 minutes a day. SEE IT HAPPEN Can you imagine yourself better off? How does that look to you? If you can imagine what is possible then change will happen more quickly. Look forward to being creative. Hypnosis is wonderful for tapping into the creative part of your mind that is always ready to see you through to a better you. BE OPEN-MINDED Are you willing to give hypnosis a chance? Resistance will hamper progress. So make a decision from the outset to be open-minded. Proceed positively and learn about the basics of what hypnosis is and how it works. Knowledge will erase fear or apprehension and sets up realistic expectations. If you don't possess all five ingredients of the ideal hypnosis client, don't let that hold you back. Not all traits are required to succeed. That's right, not all traits are necessary for success. But developing these characteristics will greatly enhance your ability to reach your goal. And now you know what you can do to get ready for a great hypnosis experience. ................... The Ideal Hypnosis Client. Greg States - Hypnosis Center - April, 2003.
