Although there are free hypnosis induction materials that are available on the internet, it is not always a wise choice to utilize them. First, there is a lot of training that must take place for a person to be able to effectively and safely use hypnosis in therapy. If this training has not been done, there is a risk in letting that person have access to the subconscious mind in a hypnotic state. People who use hypnotic trance induction should be fully trained and certified by a professional organization such as the National Guild of Hypnotists. In order to be a part of the NGH, the person has to go through their extensive training program and pass the exams. It is also a good idea that the therapist has other psychological training, such as having their counseling license through the state so that they are able to address other issues that the hypnotic trance induction techniques do not.
Deep Inside
The use of hypnotic trance induction is often used when the other types of induction have not been successful. In the hypnotic trance induction, the therapist introduces suggestions to the patient in what is often called the ‘room of nothingness’ or the ‘room of forgetfulness.’ When any suggestion is made in this room the patient will not remember that the therapist has made them. However, the suggestion itself is still planted in the patient’s mind so that he will act on it in every day life. Thus, the hypnotic trance induction therapy can circumvent more stubborn patients who are unwilling in other hypnotic states to accept what the therapist is suggesting to them because they remember where the suggestion comes from.
The other therapies besides the hypnotic trance induction can be used in a lesser level of a trance state. These therapies will often focus on particular issues that the person is facing. The scripts will usually include what the problem currently is that the patient is facing and will also include a visualization of the problem and a casting out of the problem. The problems can be related to health issues, mental health issues or addictions. There are also some problems that children often have such as bedwetting which can often be solved through the use of hypnosis. Anxiety issues and work related issues are also very commonly healed through different types of hypnotherapy, as well as public speaking butterflies and certain phobias.
