World Hypnotism Day What's the Truth About Hypnosis

Jan. 3, 2013 - PRLog -- January 4th is World Hypnotism Day 2013, which is about educating the public about the truth and benefits of Hypnosis. Dallas Hypnosis Expert, Darren Hiller, gives us some insight on truth about Hypnosis. "There are still so many myths and misconceptions out there about hypnosis. The truth is that Hypnosis is simply a natural focused state of awareness that we go into many times throughout our day, like just before we fall asleep, when we are daydreaming, driving on the highway, or watching a movie.”

Another common myth about hypnosis is that you lose control when hypnotized. Darren says, “The opposite is true, hypnosis gives you more control to change habits, thoughts and behaviors. The Hypnotist cannot make you do or say anything that you do not want to.”

This is the one day that the entire Hypnosis community has dedicated to spreading the word about Hypnosis. Many cities and towns across the world have officially declared every January 4th as World Hypnotism Day!

Hypnosis is being used as an alternative healing technique by more people and for many types of issues. Darren explains, "The use of hypnosis as a viable therapeutic modality is becoming more accepted today than ever before. Hypnosis allows you to use the natural power of your subconscious mind to make positive changes in your life.”

Some common uses of hypnosis include: smoking cessation, weight loss, sports performance, stress relief, overcoming fears and phobias, pain relief, and as an adjunct to many medical issues.
