Why More People Don"t Use Self Hypnosis.
Hypnosis is becoming more commonplace in our rapidly expanding world. You can find it in the News on a regular basis. But one of the saddest realities is that "Self Hypnosis" is still widely misunderstood. People are led to believe that special power is needed, which is false.
There is a lot of money to be made in Hypno-Therapy. The COST for Hypno-Therapy range from as little as $50 an hour, to as much as Thousands of dollars an hour... with the norm being about $200 an hour.
If people were to use true Self Hypnosis, which means that they are not relying on the Hypno-Therapist's recorded messages or "Phone Therapy", the Hypno-Therapist industry would suffer tremendously. It is easy to see why they do not teach true Self Hypnosis. Most Hypno-Therapists claim to teach Self Hypnosis, but then they send their clients home with a recorded session - which, as we know, isn't true Self Hypnosis.
My intent is not to diminish the Hypno-Therapists; they do have a place and provide a valid service. But, we do not live in a one-size-fits-all world. For the most part, true Self Hypnosis is the best alternative; most people are perfectly capable of dealing with their problems when they have the tools - an understanding of, and instruction in, Self Hypnosis. Some people do need the guidance of a Therapist, but not for Hypnosis. Some Therapists use hypnosis in therapy, which is great, but we are discussing "Self Hypnosis" and why more people don't use it. The answer is very simple... the only reason that more people don't use self hypnosis is because they don't know how!
Self Hypnosis can easily be leaned in as little as 24 Hours by anyone that is not "mentally disabled" or suffering from traumatic brain damage... which means that virtually anyone can learn and use Self Hypnosis. It is very difficult to find true Self Hypnosis training or instruction, but it is not impossible.
You might ask, "If self hypnosis is so easy to learn, why don't more people just learn how to use self hypnosis?"
The answer is two-fold:
1. True self hypnosis instruction hasn't been readily available. Most people that claim to use self hypnosis are deceived; they are actually practicing "remote hypnosis". They have purchased or been provided with recorded messages and have been told that they are practicing self hypnosis.
2. Some people just don't want to.
Not everyone WANTS to practice Self Hypnosis; some people are willing to pay for companionship; the visit and conversation is more important to them than dealing with the actual problem. These people want a shoulder to cry on, someone to listen to them, and that is fine; but again, it has nothing to do with Hypnosis. In these cases the Hypno-Therapist will help them deal with their problem, but it is more about companionship than hypnosis.
