Hypnosis
Hypnosis is a natural state into which you allow yourself to enter. It is a state of focus which we experience in our daily lives. For example when you have taken a journey and realised that you have missed your turning, or when watching a really good movie where imaginary events can cause real fear, sadness or happiness. Simply put, a focus on just one thing.
The Subconscious
Your subconscious mind holds a vast amount of information and is responsible for your reaction to situations without you even being consciously aware of it. It is where all the things you have learnt to do without thinking are done.
For example, when you first learn to drive a car you have to concentrate on which peddle your foot should be on, when to change gear etc. As you improve and practice you can not only drive the car, you can also talk to your passengers and navigate all at the same time!
Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is the application of hypnotic techniques in such a way to bring about therapeutic changes.
