Hypnosis/hypnotist
Hypnosis is a mental state (state theory) or set of attitudes (nonstate theory) usually induced by a procedure known as a hypnotic induction, which is commonly composed of a series of preliminary instructions and suggestions. Hypnotic suggestions may be delivered by a hypnotist in the presence of the subject ("hetero-suggestion"), or may be self-administered ("self-suggestion" or "autosuggestion"). The use of hypnotism for therapeutic purposes is referred to as "hypnotherapy".
The words 'hypnosis' and 'hypnotism' both derive from the term "neuro-hypnotism" (nervous sleep) coined by the Scottish physician and surgeon James Braid around 1841 to distinguish his theory and practice from those developed by Franz Anton Mesmer and his followers ("Mesmerism" or "animal magnetism").
Although a popular misconception is that hypnosis is a form of unconsciousness resembling sleep, contemporary research suggests that it is actually a wakeful state of focused attention and heightened suggestibility, with diminished peripheral awareness.In the first book on the subject, Neurypnology (1843), Braid described "hypnotism" as a state of physical relaxation ("nervous sleep") accompanied and induced by mental concentration ("abstraction")
The American Psychological Association's Definition of Hypnosis
Hypnosis typically involves an introduction to the procedure during which the subject is told that suggestions for imaginative experiences will be presented. The hypnotic induction is an extended initial suggestion for using one's imagination, and may contain further elaborations of the introduction. A hypnotic procedure is used to encourage and evaluate responses to suggestions. When using hypnosis, one person (the subject) is guided by another (the hypnotist) to respond to suggestions for changes in subjective experience, alterations in perception, sensation, emotion, thought or behaviour. Persons can also learn self-hypnosis, which is the act of administering hypnotic procedures on one's own. If the subject responds to hypnotic suggestions, it is generally inferred that hypnosis has been induced. Many believe that hypnotic responses and experiences are characteristic of a hypnotic state. While some think that it is not necessary to use the word "hypnosis" as part of the hypnotic induction, others view it as essential.
Details of hypnotic procedures and suggestions will differ depending on the goals of the practitioner and the purposes of the clinical or research endeavor. Procedures traditionally involve suggestions to relax, though relaxation is not necessary for hypnosis and a wide variety of suggestions can be used including those to become more alert. Suggestions that permit the extent of hypnosis to be assessed by comparing responses to standardised scales can be used in both clinical and research settings. While the majority of individuals are responsive to at least some suggestions, scores on standardised scales range from high to negligible.
Commonly hypnosis was used for Hypnotherapy, Medical applications, Psychotherapy, Self-hypnosis, Stage hypnosis. Hypnotism has also been used in forensics, sports, education, physical therapy and rehabilitation
Self Hypnosis
Self-hypnosis happens when a person hypnotises himself or herself, commonly involving the use of autosuggestion. The technique is often used to increase motivation for a diet, quit smoking, or reduce stress. People who practice self-hypnosis sometimes require assistance; some people use devices known as mind machines to assist in the process, while others use hypnotic recordings.
Self-hypnosis is said to be a skill one can improve as time goes by, and can help reduce stage fright, promote relaxation, and enhance physical well-being.
before that, we must understand first that we have 2 types of mind that control our behavior, they called with conscious and sub conscious.
conscious is that we understand mind in day-to-day, that is the device that we use to think logically and rational. while sub conscious is the set of experiences, understanding, understanding, and belief system and our self-image, similar to the data there is a disk in the computer, the results of absorption we are born until the start of today.
From this second type of mind, the sub conscious mind has a very big influence on our behavior, much greater than the influence of conscious one .A popular psychology books even mention that the contribution of the sub conscious mind in our behavior is 88%, and the rest of 12% is the contribution of conscious thought.
Now imagine, if we have a lot of data "does not empower" in our subconscious mind. What will happen? Even rational understanding-nor will we be able to help!
How we understand that diligent study and hard work is one of the key to success, but why we often lose the motivation to do this? Yes, this is because the subconscious mind may save patterns that undermine motivation.
There are many more examples of "loss" caused by the subconscious mind, among others: phobia, traumatic, as well as various physical disease that is triggered by the psychological aspects of the "Psychosomatic Illness", for example, is: ashma disease, interruption of blood pressure, allergies, etc..
And what relationship with SelfHypnosis?
Self Hypnosis is a method to "enter the" unconscious mind, so that we can do "re-programming" of our subconscious mind, and also "data cleaning", so that left only things that truly "empower" themselves us. With Self Hypnosis we have the opportunity to "re-establish" ourselves!
Basic Principles of Self Hypnosis
Basic principles of Self Hypnosis is "talking" and "provide instruction" to ourselves. The definition of "ourselves" in this case is "The sub conscious mind". Next expected if subconscious mind is that we understand what "instructed", the subconscious mind this will affect our actions in daily life,
Subconscious mind has a "gateway", and also has a "language" itself. Therefore, if we have the ability to "open" the gate, and we are also able to communicate with the "language" understood by the subconscious mind, then we can do programming themselves as described beginning.
So the basic principle of Self Hypnosis is:
1. Opening the gate, sub conscious mind
2. Talking with the subconscious mind in accordance with the "language" that understand.
Self Hypnosis in full will consist of 3 main parts, namely:
1. relaxation
Please sit back in a comfortable place, eg on the sofa, do in private with a quiet environment, turn off your handpone! Niatkan to stop all activity in a few minutes. Put your hands freely on thigh, and let your feet free of the loose
2. Self Programming
anything that covers the whole emotional conditions that we want. Want to start from the healthy, happy you want to, want to rich , want to have a high self-motivation, to increase the confidence, etc..
Programs:
Specify only one kind of theme first! Example: want to increase the confidence to speak in public.
Compile the script is good with respect to this main theme, to comply with the basic principle, namely:
Use positive sentences. Say what you want, not what you avoid. (ex: i want health instead i don't want sick)
Use the Present Tense. Think of you already are in a condition referred to.
Make the repetition-repetition-dikalimat the principal associated with the main theme.
Use sentence-the sentence that can arouse positive emotions, remember that the subconscious mind is very sensitive to the emotional.
When reading the program, add the imagination, make this imjainasi in such detail, as if you are in a condition referred to, until you can feel the positive emotions (happiness, pride, etc.).
3. Termination
this is example command for termination:
"I will count from 1 to 5, and count on me to-5 will open the eyes up in conditions that are very fresh, healthy, and positive" [Start doing the calculation slowly].
well that is a little bit theory that i had from this half day seminar, hope this share have a benerfit to you all.
