HYPNOTHERAPY WITH CODY HORTON

Assuming the above statement is true, you probably think your hypnotherapy session will start with the phrase, "You are getting sleeeeeeepy, sleeeeeeepy, sleeeeeeepy...", accompanied by a sinister pocketwatch swinging in front of your face.

Your perception couldn't be further from the truth! In fact, forget everything you know about hypnosis (anything you learned on TV, anyway), because hollywood-style hypnotism is a thing of science fiction. It is dramatized to the extreme, and for obvious reasons (ratings).

Allow me to dispel a myth: the belief that while in a state of hypnosis, you are under the complete control of the hypnotist. The truth of the matter is that if any one suggestion feels uncomfortable for you, it will be immediately rejected by your subconscious mind.

As a matter of fact, the first 5-10 minutes of your session with me will be spent explaining exactly how REAL clinical hypnosis works, and answering any questions or concerns you may have -- because in order for you to become hypnotized, you must:

1. Want to be hypnotized (nobody can hypnotize you
   against your will)
   
   
2. Not have any fears or misconceptions about hypnosis
   and how it works.

Your subconscious mind is much like a computer and it must respond to what is allowed to go into it. If you like and want the suggestion that is given to you, then you will allow it to enter the subconscious mind.

You are everything the programming in your subconscious mind perceives you to be. If this part of your mind views you as overweight you become overweight. If it perceives you as a smoker, you smoke and so on. This applies to many areas of your life as well, such as your mental attitude, motivation, stress, fears; the list goes on ad infinitum.

By using hypnosis you are able to bypass the critical factor of your conscious mind (the gatekeeper) and access your subconscious computer to re-pattern yourself to be whatever you wish to be.
