Hypnosis coaching combines hypnosis with life coaching and is very similar to a traditional coaching session, with exercises in goal definition as well the use of questioning and suggestion techniques. During hypnosis coaching, you may experience new sensations such as a floaty feeling, while having easier access to your feelings, emotions, memories, or other parts of yourself.
The sessions can be done sitting or standing, with your eyes open or closed for better focus and immersion. Hypnosis coaching sessions can take place anywhere, but it is best to find a quiet, secluded place, so that you feel comfortable. They can also be performed remotely with a virtual hypnosis coach. Sessions last between 1-2 hours with most patients experiencing positive results after about 3 sessions.
How hypnosis coaching can help you
·Overcoming phobias: One of the ways hypno-coaching sessions can be beneficial is in managing phobias. Gradually exposing a person to the situation that is stressing them out is a common technique to eliminate phobias. Depending on the phobia a person is struggling with, hypnosis makes it possible to place a person in an imaginary situation in which they have complete control. Today, many mental health experts are currently evaluating this technique in the management of various phobias.
·Dealing with post-traumatic stress: As with phobias, hypnosis is a tool that can be very useful in supporting people with post-traumatic stress. It makes it possible to recreate a past traumatic event, and then train them in techniques of relaxation and stress management. The result is a relief from negative emotions associated with past trauma.
·Coping with chronic pain: Through hypnosis, a person in pain can become immersed in a pleasant mental state which has the effect of reducing or eliminating pain through the effect of dissociation. The person thus becomes aware that this pain be tuned down when needed.
