When it comes to hypnosis, one on one therapy certainly has its benefits. However, one of the advantages of recorded self-hypnosis downloads is the ability to listen as often as you like. Hypnotherapy works because deep relaxation allows the unconscious to be more open to suggestion.

Talk to any hypnotist about suggestion and they will tell you about the law of concentrated attention. The more you hear something, the more you hear the suggestion, the more likely it is that suggestion will be taken on board at an unconscious level.

With hypnosis audio sessions you can benefit from deep relaxation once or even twice a day. The more you listen, the deeper the message is received. Of course, regular deep relaxation such as this is therapeutic in itself. But audio sessions are also empowering.

When you choose this type of hypnosis, you are in the driver’s seat, so to speak. You have chosen to takes steps that will improve your understanding of yourself and your mind, and that will improve your well being.

Obviously if you go to see a hypnotherapist working one to one, you will probably work on more specific problems. It’s all part of that live interaction between people. But the cost of doing so can be quite expensive. It goes without saying that it is less costly to use audio recordings. I do believe in the personal aspect of the one on one session, but I have no doubt in the great value that recorded hypnosis offers. This is why I offer both options and sometimes suggest a combination of the two.

Some people may think that self hypnosis CDs and hypnosis downloads are just not as good as the real thing or that they don’t work, but I certainly disagree. They are very effective! I have seen and personally experienced the results. The bottom line of hypnosis is about suggestion and, as I said earlier, the more people hear the suggestion the more likely it is to be productive.

We are all unique beings. There is no set way of doing anything across the board that will work for everyone. If you have access to one on one therapy then that is great, but don’t underestimate the value of self hypnosis recordings. If you are willing to dedicate the time to deep relaxation and allow the suggestions to work with your unconscious mind, you can benefit from self hypnosis.

What is the most important factor in making self hypnosis a success? To me the answer is as simple as this: regular listening. You should try to listen as much as practically possible, and by this I mean daily. Many people say they are just too busy for that, but in order for hypnosis to work you have to make a certain level of commitment. You need to find the time and really listen.

How you listen is also important. The best place to experience hypnosis is in an environment where you have privacy. It should be a place you are very comfortable relaxing. Consider listening while lying down if possible. This is, after all, the most natural position for relaxation. Of course it is not written in stone, it has to be whatever suits you individually. Sometimes finding out what works for you is kind of a journey. You get to experiment and find out what works best.

Peace and quiet is another important factor for getting the most out of hypnosis. Headphones are especially good for this. Our self hypnosis downloads are done in stereo, not only for the high-quality sound they produce, but also for the therapeutic element. By listening through headphones it almost seems like the sound is plugged directly into your brain. Obviously, this also aids in cutting down on distractions. Concentration is a key factor in hypnosis and your focus can be easily interrupted by outside noise. 

The right timing will also help you make the most of it. Listen to your hypnosis sessions anytime when it is private, comfortable, and convenient for you. It could just be whenever you are able to find the spare time or maybe right after tea when your body begins to get tired and slow down a bit. Possibly you prefer listening at night, when the day is behind you and you are free of outside demands. It’s ultimately up to your personal preference. Try it at different times and determine when you feel the most relaxed.

But how does one relax? Many people say they have trouble with this and fear it may impact their ability to benefit from hypnotherapy. I suggest to them to try not to think so much. It’s natural for your mind to wander from time to time, but as you become aware of it you can bring your focus back to my voice. If I’m asking you to concentrate on certain part of your body, try to follow and keep that focus.

Self hypnosis does not come easily for everyone. Some people will have to try harder at it than others, but if you dedicate yourself to getting the most out of each hypnosis session–you will. By staying motivated, listening often, and following these suggestions you are sure to experience successful self hypnosis.
