Self Hypnosis Basics

Now that you have a very basic understanding of how the conscious and subconscious mind work, your first step is to learn how to put your mind in an Alpha state yourself in order to facilitate the changes that need to be made. Since self-hypnosis is simple to learn we will begin with that modality and give you several examples that you can use for self-hypnosis.

The first thing you need to do is learn how to hypnotize yourself. There are three tools that you will be using: suggestion, concentration and imagination. If you have a good imagination you will have no trouble mastering these techniques very quickly.

It is important not to try too hard. The whole concept is to just relax and let yourself go. If you try too hard you will become tense and this is exactly what you don't want.

Also ignore any analytical attitude. If you don't, you will keep the conscious mind awake and the whole object of hypnotizing yourself is to relax.

We assume you want to hypnotize yourself or wouldn't be doing this. You can't go into self-hypnosis against your will. Therefore you can't do it unless you follow the rules.

Before we begin, it is important to realize that there is no set "script" to the verbiage of a hypnotic trance. There are different techniques used by pioneers in hypnotherapy. The first technique was developed by one of those pioneers. His name was Charles Tebbetts who was already a teenager by World War I. Charles is known for his comment that, "all hypnosis is self-hypnosis, and the power is in the mind of the person being hypnotized."
