Hypnosis Therapy |What Does It Really Feel Like?

Understanding hypnotherapy is very difficult if you haven’t been hypnotised before or if you have only recently started learning hypnosis therapy. Because it can be hard to know what to expect. So today I’d like to share a great description with you. It will prepare you for the experience of being hypnotised and if you are planning on joining me on the Triple Diploma in Strategic Hypnotherapy, Mind Coaching and Online Therapy – then you’ll be able to share this with your own clients and prepare them for a great therapy experience with you.

So What Does Hypnosis Feel Like? 

Here’s a great description of it to help you prepare yourself and your clients for the experience

Well it’s difficult to know what it will feel like before you experience it first-hand.  Even then the experience will be totally subjective and as individual as you are. 

It’s important to understand that hypnosis is a totally natural state of mind and for many of us the hypnotic state is a common occurrence. 

When you are hypnotised both parts of your mind — the conscious and the subconscious are working together in harmony on the same idea at the same time.

This unity of purpose may feel completely natural to you or completely strange and unusual depending upon your psychological make-up.

Ryan Elliot, 1995

Light trance feels like being relaxed, but in a deeper trance impressions are fresher, imagination is quicker to respond and senses and images more real. 

What Sensations Will You Feel in Hypnosis?

Here is a description of some of the more common sensations reported by my clients and my students who are learning hypnosis therapy on our Triple Diploma Course, or who signed up for some of our free online courses on our home page.

• Some people feel light as a feather and other people feel heavy as though they are sinking down into their own relaxation.
• Sometimes it is hard to discern where your hands and feet are as they just seem to melt into trance.
• Some people feel numb and other people tingle. 
• Your conscious mind may wander. 
• You may remember things you had long forgotten.
• Irrelevant thoughts might float into your mind and float out again.
• Your eyes may water and your eyelids may flutter.
• Body parts may twitch as they let go of tension and stress.

Most people feel relaxed and very comfortable – too comfortable to move and too restful to do anything, but just allow the hypnotist’s voice to guide them towards your goal. 

Most people find that time seems to move by very slowly and that they have all the time they need to think, relax, change and re-charge their energy levels. 

But whatever you feel, one thing is for sure you will awaken from your experience feeling confident, relaxed and in control over your thoughts, your feelings and your life.
