The Power of Self-Hypnosis

Hello,

I’m Jonathan Garside from The Hypnosis Clinic. Today I’d like to talk to you about self-hypnosis.

I discovered self hypnosis, in 1996, when I went to see a clinical hypnotherapist in London, with a view to becoming a non-smoker.

I was very sceptical about if it would actually work, even though I’d studied psychology at university. I needn’t have been worried, the treatment I received, was wonderfully successful, after a 20 year habit, I became a non-smoker in just two sessions.

It made a tremendous difference to my life, and I wondered if hypnosis might be able to help me with some other areas of my life, to become better at the things I wanted to do, to get rid of some of the lazy habits that I’d picked up.

My hypnotherapist suggested that I learn about self hypnosis and to attend the course that he ran on weekends. Full of intrigue, I attended although I wasn't really sure what to expect. Over the course of the weekend, we learnt about what hypnosis is, what it isn’t, how to harness its power, how to use it for our own benefit.

At the end of the course we were given the opportunity to prove to ourselves that our self-hypnosis was really working, by embarking on something quite terrifying!! I was told to take myself into hypnosis and give myself a suggestion that my arm was numb and free from bleeding. I came out of hypnosis and the instructor gently pushed a nappy pin through my arm. It didn’t hurt, or bleed. I was utterly amazed.

Obviously, please don’t have a go at doing this to yourself, it was performed under strict conditions. If you try to do this to yourself, it will hurt and you will bleed. I take no responsibility for that!

It changed my life! And my career; within 2 years of that course, I had qualified as a clinical hypnotherapist.

For the last 25 years I’ve been running my own self-hypnosis courses. Over 3000 people have learnt the art of self hypnosis, taking charge of their environment and living their lives to the fullest.

The course teaches you about the awesome power of communication, the vital importance of the words we use in every day life and teaches you how to relax at a molecular level. You will see demonstrations of deep hypnosis and learn to use the special programs that have been developed to take yourself to a level where you can communicate directly with your subconscious mind; the seat of all change.

Today I teach this course individually, 1-2-1. It’s much faster that way and takes about 6 hours, rather than an entire weekend. Generally we work in 2 hour sessions, at our clinic in London’s Regent Street.

To find out more about the work I do helping people learn self-hypnosis skills, make an appointment for a free consultation. You can either come to meet me at our clinic in London’s regent street, or via a Telehealth video call.

I look forward to meeting you soon.
