Date Mar 01st, 2010 12:38 Over-hypnotised??

Please share your light. I am just wondering if it is possible to over-hypnotise? (being that I do several hypnotisms for various concerns in one sitting, one after the other. For example. Confidence, stop smoking, adhd, prosperity, fear of rats and stop drinking alcohol ... all in the same afternoon. And then everyday there after. Are there any detriments to doing so, are there any side effects or does it reduce the effectivness in any way. Thanks for your insights.

Hi I dont think there is a risk of it reducing the effectiveness if anything I would say it increases the effectivness for the client as it is suggested that repitition is one of the best ways to help a client and it can help by using repetitive words and phrases in scripts. hope this helps?

In my opinion it is better to stick with one problem at a time (for example dont mix sessions that arent related in some way). Also whilst I agree with Joanne about repetition I feel that that over-doing hypnosis sessions every day can make a person lose their sense of reality.

If a client comes to me with more than one issue, I ask them to prioritise them and decide which one to work on first (that in itself encourages the person take ownership of their problems). I never work on more than one issue at a time unless theyre linked (eg insomnia & anxiety). I think the mind is more effective if it can concentrate its focus on one issue at a time. Ive been practising for 13 years and this approach has always worked for me.

PS. It can take the brain up to 21 days to act upon a new behaviour so I dont see there being much benefit in hypnotising someone every day. You need to allow some time for the suggestions to sink in - that way you can evaluate your clients progress and do any fine tuning at subsequent sessions.
