Subliminal Hypnossis - A Beginners Guide

By Article Expert on Mar. 4, 2009.

Subliminal hypnosis gains access to your subconscious mind it goes past your logical thinking and overwrites your negative behavior from the inside out - here lies the real benefit - your body can’t tell the difference between imagining something andhaving it happen for real.. So if your conscious efforts have been failing, then subliminal hypnosis may be able to reprogram these unconscious thoughts that have been holding you back.

For example if you want to lose weight, but you have tried and failed so many times previously then you may have several limiting beliefs, even if they are subconscious; beliefs like “I will never be that slim / I could never achieve a six pack like that / My metabolism is too slow, I just don’t lose weight that fast”. Hypnosis changes your beliefs for positive and beneficial ways of thinking to help you in certain areas of your life whether it is losing weight, improving your sports performance, or even improving your body image.

Subliminal learning it is just a milder type of hypnosis. It works on the same principals of accessing the subconscious mind to change behavior and negative thought patterns that are holding you back. However there are several differences and pros and cons of each method:

• Hypnosis can be very powerful, just one session with a qualified professional may be all it takes to change your behaviour forever. Subliminal CDs should be played every day, at least for the first 1-2 weeks - the effects are more gradual
• Hypnosis can be expensive, especially for a highly trained hypnotist. Subliminal CDs are cheap and easy to use.
• Hypnosis requires that you go into a deep trance like state. Subliminal Cds can be used at any time during the day -while relaxing, or doing any activity.
• Depending both upon your state of mind and the skill of the hypnotist you may need to “get used to” hypnosis first so that you can “learn” to go deeper and receive full benefit. Subliminal CDs don’t put you into a deep trance, but you still receive the messages to your unconscious mind.

Many people use subliminal messages as a simple alternative to hypnosis, however there is no best method to use, it depends upon your beliefs, circumstances, the nature of the change you want to make, and your personal preferences. Subliminal hypnosis CDs can even be a great compliment to any hypnosis session you have - they will enforce any changes you are making, and promote the behavior you want to adopt.
