Can Hypnosis make you Happier?

This Hypnotherapist says it makes her happier!

Angela Vincent is a Clinical Hypnotherapist in Tasmania working with clients Australia wide thanks to Zoom and she knows she feels better after delivering and receiving Hypnosis!

Anxiety, depression, stress, insomnia, nightmares, relationship break-ups, loneliness and grief are all reasons people seek out Hypnosis and for good reason. It offers a place for the body and mind to experience moments of relief from their emotions and thoughts and gain some sense that it can feel better in real time. We work with the very difficult and we can offer some space between the pain and their urge to genuinely feel better.

Here are some reasons Angela finds the world of Hypnosis impactful in a positive and at times, humorous way and here are some of her why’s…

Hypnotherapists often possess a unique sense of humor that sets them apart in the world of therapy. Here's why they tend to be funny:

1. Engaging and Relaxing: Humor can be an effective tool for engaging clients and helping them relax during hypnotherapy sessions. A light-hearted joke or witty remark can instantly break the ice and create a more comfortable atmosphere, making it easier for clients to enter a state of hypnosis.

2. Builds Rapport: Humor can strengthen the rapport between hypnotherapists and their clients. Sharing a laugh creates a sense of connection and camaraderie, fostering trust and openness in the therapeutic relationship.

3. Dissolves Tension: Many clients come to hypnotherapy with underlying stress, anxiety, or tension. A well-timed joke or humorous anecdote can help diffuse tension and lighten the mood, making it easier for clients to address sensitive issues and explore their emotions.

4. Facilitates Change: Humor can be a powerful catalyst for change. By injecting humor into the therapeutic process, hypnotherapists can help clients reframe negative thoughts and beliefs, challenge limiting beliefs, and adopt a more positive outlook on life.

5. Creative and adds Flexibility: Hypnotherapists often need to think on their feet and adapt their approach to meet the unique needs of each client. A playful sense of humor allows hypnotherapists to approach therapy with creativity and flexibility, exploring new techniques and interventions to achieve therapeutic goals.

6. Models Relaxation: A relaxed and lighthearted demeanor sets the tone for the session and encourages clients to let go of stress and tension. Hypnotherapists who incorporate humor into their practice serve as role models for relaxation, demonstrating the benefits of a positive and light-hearted attitude towards life.

7. Enhances Memory and Learning: Humor has been shown to improve memory and enhance learning. By weaving humor into hypnotherapy sessions, hypnotherapists can help clients retain information more effectively and internalize positive suggestions for change.

8. Boosts Resilience: Laughter is known to boost resilience and help individuals cope with adversity. Hypnotherapists who use humor in their practice help clients develop a more resilient mindset, enabling them to navigate life's challenges with grace and humor.

9. Creates Lasting Positive Associations: Clients who associate therapy with positive emotions and experiences are more likely to continue their therapeutic journey and make lasting changes in their lives. Humor creates a memorable and enjoyable experience for clients, fostering a positive association with hypnotherapy.

10. Celebrates Progress: Humor can be a powerful tool for celebrating progress and milestones in the therapeutic journey. Whether it's cracking a joke to lighten the mood during a breakthrough moment or sharing a laugh to acknowledge a client's achievements, hypnotherapists use humor to affirm and celebrate the progress their clients are making.

All in all, hypnotherapists use humor as a versatile and effective tool for promoting relaxation, building rapport, facilitating change, and creating a positive therapeutic experience for their clients. Through laughter and lightheartedness, hypnotherapists help clients tap into their innate potential for healing and transformation.

Hypnosis for Weight loss and the neuroscience

Combining hypnosis and neuroscience for weight loss is a fascinating topic!

In recent years, there has been increasing interest in using hypnosis as a tool to support weight loss efforts, and neuroscience has shed light on how hypnosis can potentially affect our behaviors and habits.

Hypnosis is a state of focused attention and heightened suggestibility, where individuals become more open to suggestions that can influence their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In the context of weight loss, hypnosis can be used to target specific behaviors and habits that contribute to thoughts about eating, overeating or unhealthy eating patterns.

From a neuroscience perspective:

Hypnosis has been shown to influence brain activity and neural pathways associated with behavior change. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have demonstrated changes in brain activity during hypnosis, particularly in regions involved in attention, perception, and self-awareness. These changes may help individuals become more receptive to suggestions aimed at promoting healthier eating habits and lifestyle choices.

One way hypnosis can aid in weight loss is by targeting the subconscious mind, where deeply ingrained beliefs and behaviors reside. By accessing the subconscious, hypnosis can help individuals identify and address underlying issues that may be contributing to weight gain, such as emotional eating, stress, or low self-esteem.

Hypnosis can be used to reframe negative thought patterns and beliefs about food, exercise, and body image.

Through repeated sessions, individuals can reinforce positive attitudes and associations with healthy behaviors, making it easier to adopt and maintain a balanced approach to eating and exercise.

It's essential to note that while hypnosis can be a valuable tool for weight loss, it is not a magic solution on its own.

It works best when combined with other evidence-based strategies, such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and behavioral therapy. Additionally, individual responses to hypnosis can vary, so it's essential to work with a qualified hypnotherapist who can tailor the sessions to your specific needs and goals.

Overall, the combination of hypnosis and neuroscience offers exciting possibilities for supporting weight loss efforts by tapping into the power of the mind to foster positive behavior change and promote long-term success.

Consistent effort and mindfulness-based Hypnosis provide an excellent platform for a life free of the blocks around body image, strengthening the body and nurturing and nourishing the Body for a positve relationship.

The Neuroscience of Hypnosis: Unravelling the mysteries

Hypnosis has long captured the imagination of both scientists and the general public.

From stage shows to therapeutic interventions, its allure lies in its ability to tap into the inner workings of the mind and induce a state of heightened suggestibility. But what exactly happens in the brain during hypnosis? In this blog, we'll delve into the fascinating world of neuroscience to uncover the mechanisms underlying this intriguing phenomenon.

The Brain in Hypnosis:

At its core, hypnosis involves a state of focused attention and heightened suggestibility. Studies using neuroimaging techniques such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG) have provided valuable insights into the neural correlates of hypnosis. One key finding is the alteration of activity in brain regions involved in attention, such as the prefrontal cortex and anterior cingulate cortex. These areas show decreased activity during hypnosis, suggesting a state of reduced self-awareness and increased receptivity to suggestion.

The Role of the Default Mode Network:

Another important player in the neuroscience of hypnosis is the default mode network (DMN), a network of brain regions involved in self-referential thinking and mind wandering. Research has shown that hypnosis is associated with changes in DMN activity, with reductions in connectivity between regions within the network. This disruption of the DMN may contribute to the sense of detachment from the self often reported by individuals undergoing hypnosis.

Hypnosis and Brain Connectivity:

In addition to changes in activity within specific brain regions, hypnosis also appears to alter functional connectivity patterns across the brain. Studies have demonstrated changes in connectivity between regions involved in cognitive control, memory, and emotion processing. These findings suggest that hypnosis may modulate the way different brain regions communicate with each other, potentially leading to alterations in perception, memory, and behavior.

The Power of Suggestion:

One of the hallmarks of hypnosis is its ability to harness the power of suggestion to influence thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Neuroimaging studies have revealed that suggestions given during hypnosis can produce distinct patterns of brain activity, even in the absence of external stimuli. For example, suggestions for pain relief have been shown to reduce activity in brain regions involved in pain processing, highlighting the therapeutic potential of hypnosis for managing pain and other symptoms.

The neuroscience of hypnosis offers a fascinating glimpse into the inner workings of the mind.

By unraveling the neural mechanisms underlying this phenomenon, researchers are not only gaining a deeper understanding of hypnosis itself but also shedding light on broader questions about consciousness, suggestibility, and the nature of subjective experience.

As our knowledge of the brain continues to advance, so too will our understanding of how hypnosis creates positive experiences and outcomes.

IBS and ABC936 Talk Back

Thank you to Leon Compton of Statewide mornings for welcoming me on to discuss IBS and gut-directed hypnotherapy!

Irritable Bowel Syndrome is complex and can be life altering in the least for many people. IBS has become a leading reason for visiting the GP with sufferers experiencing pain on digestion and for many they have an inability to digest FODMAP foods resulting in cramping, diarrhoea, constipation or both. What we know is that stress can make symptoms worse and for some they may have a dramatically reduced number of foods they can safely digest.

Natural State Hypnosis specialises in Gut-directed Hypnotherapy. Angela Vincent follows the Monash university evidence-based protocol for IBS and the FODMAP diet guidelines. Allow Angela to help your body regain it’s ability to digest many of the foods they have not had success with in the past.

Hypnosis for weight loss

Lose Weight and Embrace your Body Shape!

Cravings and unwanted food habits can lead to weight fluctuations and for many battling weight loss, the process is complex and multifaceted.  We are not all born alike, we have our DNA, upbringing and social influences impacting on how we navigate this life with all such variables contributing to our overall self worth and body image.

The addition of hypnosis provides a window of opportunity to assist in the effectiveness of dietary changes and an improvement in the regularity of exercise for people looking to lose weight. The idea is that the mind can be influenced to change habits like overeating. However, every individual will respond differently and despite it’s effectiveness in improving one’s self worth and improved body image, the amount of weight loss differs from person-to-person.

Does Hypnotherapy work for weight loss?

A 2018 study has provided evidence that the support of Self-Hypnosis techniques and hypnosis recordings.  The group provided with hypnosis reported better outcomes with a reduction in caloric (overall food) intake, a decrease in their urge to eat (satiety) and a reduction in the inflammatory markers related to obesity.

What to expect from your hypnotherapy weight loss program

During the hypnosis session certain words or repetition of certain phrases may be used and used throughout the program.  Your therapist may also help you visualise yourself reaching goals through sharing vivid mental imagery.  Hypnotherapy programs come with conscious tasks and an mp3 self hypnosis track to utilise.

Being a parent is tough and as a parent of a youngster that expresses anxiety, fear or panic at any stage can make parenting even more difficult. Hypnotherapy is a gentle and in many cases effective way for kids and young adults to bravely work through their fears. Visual imagery and story telling are often wonderfully effective ways to engage young people and Hypnotherapy may be provided in a waking state as children are still very efficient at moving in and out of trance-like states.

Hypnotherapy for kids anxiety

If your child appears to have lost that toddler courage that you remember which allowed them to brush themselves off and attempt the next trick on the monkey bars then they could be in need of some confidence boosting. We know that as adults our resilience can take a beating when moving jobs, cities, sports teams or a myriad of different changes and our Children and young adults can lose sleep, forget to eat, be more hesitant to leave our side as just a couple of examples of how these feelings play out in children.

With Child Psychologist wait lists being stretched to capacity it is the perfect time to consider other options. Hypnotherapy can provide immediate relief being reported by many parents of my young clients. During a hypnotherapy session Mums and Dads can expect to remain in the room for the entirety of the 45min-60minute consultation to ensure that your child feels supported and comfortable for the duration of the session.

Despite children and young adults being quite suggestible to hypnosis, Hypnotherapy is most effective when a minimum of 3-6 consultations providing long lasting change and resilience for our young population. These programs aim to create a sense of self worth and building self esteem.

Hypnosis and mind-body therapies can assist you in keeping you calm and steady during the ups and downs of conception, miscarriage and a myriad of other physical and social factors that come into play when you’re planning for a child.

How can Hypnosis help?

Hypnosis is one part of the therapy provided by a Hypnotherapist. As a Nurse and Clinical Hypnotherapist, I combine my knowledge of the biology of the body and in almost all cases, I’m able to provide a lay (wo)man’s explanation of why it’s important to keep the stress hormones to a minimum and more importantly, how to do it with a few simple techniques.

You see, our body’s nervous system is fuelled by our minds’ response or our perceptions of fear and panic. We may not have saber tooth tigers to fight but that does not mean we’re not responding as if one is in front of us.

What does this have to do with you, I hear you thinking?

For women wishing to conceive after a long period of attempting to fall pregnant naturally simply approaching a scan, an Obstetrician appointment or just seeing a familiar medical professionals number come up on their phone it can be enough to release a fear and even panic response in the body. Our mind is often on the watch to avoid moments of extreme distress, prolonged discomfort or mental hurt. It is during these times that our body releases adrenaline which is counterproductive in the conceiving and birthing body.

Clinical hypnotherapy for chronic pain

Clinical trial evidence consistently provides positive results for hypnotherapy effectiveness in reducing daily pain intensity levels in people with chronic pain.

Hypnotherapy harnesses your ability to retrain neural pathways and develop new patterns in the brain and body helping you reclaim control and relieve unrelenting chronic pain.

Chronic Pain and illness is debilitating, exhausting and extremely stressful.

Chronic Pain is considered as pain that occurs most days of the week and has been persistent for longer than three months. It may include pain that no longer has an identifiable cause regions of the body that have physically healed and pain remains.

Other physical identifiable causes include: 

·       Arthritis 

·       Autoimmune syndromes

·       Cancer 

·       Chronic nerve pain and bone / cartilage & ligament damage 

·       Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

·       Complex Pain Syndrome

·       Fibromyalgia 

·       Motor Neurone Disease / ALS: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

·       Multiple Sclerosis

·       Neuropathic pain syndrome

·       Phantom Pain Syndrome

·       Shingles

      ….. just to name a few.

It is estimated that 1 in 5 people suffer chronic pain.  It’s complex and the cause and treatment options which suit one person may not be as adequate for another.  Treatment options often require reviews to medications, changes to treatment recommendations and emotional resilience falling short at times due to the sea-sawing effect to ones’ ability to maintain healthy emotional reserves when the chronic pain remains.  

As a person in chronic pain there are some real concerns to address such as their primary chronic pain site, mobility and mental distress as well as financial hardship.  These issues present consistently for a person with chronic pain and their family as a decrease in their capacity to earn, ability to maintain social connections and their needs as a caregiver becomes compromised. 

What we do know is that there is not one single treatment that alleviates all chronic pain.  It takes good communication, support and the ability to advocate for yourself or your partner.  

It often requires the combination of proactive strategies about how your mental and emotional health may be maintained and health care professionals focused on providing you with positive outcomes and improved quality of life.

Quit smoking with Hypnosis

Does it really work for smoking? 

.. that is the first question I’m asked when people hear about my day job.

Yes!  Is my first response, however, it comes with some further investigations from under our Hypnotherapist caps.  We want to know whether you think it works?  Why and who suggested it and whether their opinion is held in high regard.

You see, we all have free will.  Whether we are hypnotisable or not will make minimal difference if the purpose of smoking is providing a reward more significant to the person than simply quitting.  Lifestyle habits, relationships and others opinions can create inner conflict and its effects may over-ride one’s better good at times.  But never forget, every attempt is one step closer to the winning day as a non-smoker for good!

Are you ready to quit?  To bring your plans and goals to the forefront of your daily, weekly and monthly plan?

Would you consider Hypnotherapy if you were certain one of several long-lasting changes could be installed such as never being able to consider having another cigarette ever again?

Perhaps you would rather not be drawn to the ‘draw-back sting’ at the back of your throat?  Hypnotherapy can have the natural gag response to the smell, taste and sting at the throat enabling you to quit the cigarette with the support of anchors such as red traffic lights reminding your mind and body that you have quit and you’re committed to that change.

Or perhaps when you smell the carpet in a bar you are reminded of how unpleasant smoking is and you feel relieved as a non-smoker once again..
