You know those hypnosis videos on youtube that are supposed to make you feel relaxed?
Anyways…
There’s like several videos that sort of work on me. Like when it says you are getting sleepy or something like that I actually get sleepy but I never go into a trance.
Anyone know why this is?

Thanks!

I cant seem to get this old flame out of my mind and he is all I think about. It is controlling me. Can hypnosis work for this? Please help me!

What do you think < (-+-)> mind control < (-+-)> hypnosis < (-+-)>

So…this is going to sound weird and maybe a little funny. I have my own suspicions about what happned and I want your answers to double check. Ok…I play piano and am a piano teacher. Recently I have been practicing for a performance and have been very nervous..so nervous I couldn’t concentrate and play well. My bf is an english teacher and part time stage hypnotist. He suggested that he hypnotize me not to be so nervous. Well he came over and he was able to hypnotize me (very quickly..people who play music ae susceptable) Anyway..I was not nervous anymore and played fine..the thing is..when I woke up from hypnosis I found that my feet were really sticky feeling. I didn;t remember much from hypnosis and had him tape the session..but nothing could explain my sticky bare feet. So…what do you think happend? Help a girl out. Thanks

It isn’t for every woman, but “hypnobirthing” certainly has its fans, including Carla Breakey, a 38-year-old home business owner from Idaho. And rave reviews from women like Breakey are helping this method of natural childbirth grow in popularity around the globe.
Breakey used hypnobirthing for two of her three children. Hypnobirthing teaches women how to hypnotize themselves to manage their labor, helping them to relax and let their bodies take over. The theory is that, in the absence of fear and tension, severe pain does not have to accompany labor. In this calm state, endorphins — naturally occurring chemicals in the body that can relieve pain — replace the stress hormones that contribute to pain, proponents say.
“I enjoyed the experience a lot more and was a lot more present when I used hypnobirthing,” Breakey tells WebMD. For her first child, Breakey had a standard hospital birth with an epidural. That time, she says, “I felt like I was fighting the labor, and after the epidural was administered, I couldn’t feel anything, which was scary.”
That’s why she, along with her husband, Jeff, decided to try hypnobirthing for their second child. “I was very skeptical the first time, but the experience was unbelievable. I was relaxed, and it really does help with the pain,” she says. “With hypnobirthing, I felt confident, and when the contractions would come, they weren’t scary at all.”
And although some experts warn that undergoing any type of drug-free childbirth requires a high level of determination and commitment, proponents say hypnobirthing really can help ease women’s fears about the birth process.
“Hypnobirthing is a childbirth process that includes a major focus on many of the techniques used in hypnotherapy to relieve fear,” Pat Burrell, RN, a hypnobirthing therapist based in State College, Pa., tells WebMD. “It integrates factual information on the childbirth process along with hypnosis.” Burrell is also an instructor with the American Board of Hypnotherapy and an executive board member of the Hypnobirthing Institute in Epsom, N.H.
“Other childbirth processes approach pain as a given and try to find ways to deal with pain, from medication to massage, but hypnobirthing teaches women to transform the sensation of pain so that it feels like something else,” she says. “The healthiest way to deliver a baby is to be very relaxed and allow the body to do it. Once labor begins, it has its own momentum and mom really doesn’t need to do much of anything.”
Hypnobirthing can also be used along with other birthing processes ranging from Lamaze to pain-killing drugs, Burrell says.
Couples learn the technique by taking between four and six classes, starting after the first trimester of pregnancy. “The partner is the hypnotherapist and helps the woman get into a trance-like state, where she is fully conscious of what her body is doing,” Burrell explains. “She is very relaxed, which provides a safe and healthy environment for the baby and the mom.”
Burrell says hypnobirthing creates a strong bond between the couple as well as between the mother and her baby.
The cost varies across the country, and many insurance companies do reimburse for hypnobirthing classes, she says.
Debbie Wagner, a clinical hypnotherapist in Bellevue, Wash., has taught hypnobirthing to hundreds of expectant mothers since the early 1990s.”I have had great success with it,” she tells WebMD. “Many women have told me that they had a sense of control that wasn’t present [in previous births] after using hypnobirthing.”
But some experts warn that hypnotism may not be enough to help everyone endure the powerful pains of labor. Yvonne Thornton, MD, PhD, a senior perinatologist at St. Luke’s Roosevelt Hospital Center in New York, says she would counsel women to think long and hard before they decide to try hypnobirthing or any other method of drug-free delivery.
“If you really want to have a drug-free birth, you have to be committed to the program or technique because if you are not really committed, it’s a farce,” she tells WebMD. “Some people have a fairy-tale idea about the true nature of labor, but it is painful. It is one of the most painful crisises that the woman has to endure.”

Do you agree that losing weight is one of the biggest things we procrastinate about?  Or is it the thought of being deprived?

Well it can be both of those.  There is a lot of work involved in losing weight.  Maybe you just don’t want to put that much effort in to be healthy and will probably die at an earlier age!

We may only guess why we procrastinate about losing weight.  It doesn’t necessarily mean that we are lazy.  The stress of procrastination alone can force us to overeat or not take the time to exercise.  Are we are setting ourselves up for failure before we ever begin?

Are you unable to sleep at night? Do you walk around your room in the wee hours of dawn because the arms of Morpheus refuse to invite you? This inability to sleep is called insomnia.  Well, you are not alone! Thousands of people are suffering from this sleep disorder. You might have tried to self-medicate by taking sleeping pills and the like, but it is still ineffective.  You must remember that insomniais not a disease but a symptom, so you have to cure the underlying cause before you could solve the problem successfully.

hypnosis is a total and I repeat total control of the mind as I have seen in some videos, I was wondering…
1.- If hypnosis is effective, why is that there are so many people struggling with drugs dependency?
2.- why not applying hypnosis in hospitals as a common practice?
3.- in schools and daily life?
4.- every day mutual hypnosis for a happy marriage?
5.- to eat veggies you don’t like
what are the limits?

I want to become an engineer and more. Are there any far-out methods to digesting vast amounts of information quickly and efficiently? I am interested in things like self-hypnosis and meditation. I want to learn about programming, calculus, geometry/ trigonometry, physics, algebra, multiplication tables, biology, environmental science, automotive mechanics etc… Did you see ‘the Matrix’ where trinity downloaded into her brain how to fly helicopter? Not that easy, obviously but anything like that would be too cool. Too much blank gray matter in here. Don’t want to hear about nose to the grindstone, I am very busy and I already know about that. Thank you!
