We all know cigarettes are bad for us, but how does one quit successfully. Not such an easy answer.
Has anyone attempted using hypnosis to help them stop?

Answer by drspkpt
Hypnosis is not a remedy for stopping cigarettes, you can stop this habit by your strong will power, hypnosis works on unconscious mind but strong determination works while you are fully awake and alert

Question by : Can hypnosis actually make us lose memories?
Some have told me that hypnotherapist can make us lose memories by using hypnosis, I think this is impossible. It’s not clear to me, because what I’ve known is hypnotherapy can make us recall the long lost memories only. I don’t know if that is right or not.
So, who know well about this, please tell me. Thanks.

Answer by hurleygurl777
Well technically you don’t lose any memories. What you can do is just tell your unconscious to just not remember certain things that would be considered harmful from your past. The best thing actually would be to go back to that time on your timeline and re-decide what that event means, creating a new positive meaning and learning would actually serve you better then just forgetting a memory. So yes, you can tell yourself to just not remember, its more like you just wont be effected by that anymore. You can also recall past memories…if it is positive then that is a good thing, but if it is a negative memory there are ways to do it without reliving the negative feelings. I hope this answers your question.

Question by Stephanie M: Does hypnosis for teeth grinding actually work?
I’ve been grinding my teeth as long as I can remember. My orthodontist gave me an obnoxious mouthguard which I’ve worn for 4 years, and he says I’ll probably be married to it. I’ve been reading about hypnosis for teeth grinding and I was wondering if anyone has tried it and/or knows if it works? Thanks

Question by : Can hypnosis make somebody more ticklish if hypnotized to feel more ticklish?
A friend of mine wants to become ticklish and she used to be extremely ticklish but now she isn’t at all. She wants to know if hypnosis can help her become ticklish because she loved being tickled. Answer please?

Best answer:

Answer by emily
Hypnosis leaves your brain open to suggestions that may include things other than being ticklish.
Some think it gives the demons a chance to enter the body and in some cases it completely changes a persons personality into one very undesirable. It is a very dangerous thing to do.

Question by bayazetik: What is necessary to legally practice hypnosis?
Is there some sort of license necessary to conduct hypnotherapy? If not license, then what? Please list your sources.
Also, if an oral consent is obtained before entering the subject into hypnosis, do they have a legal right to sue you afterward?
Thanks

Best answer:

Answer by warnick69
There are no legal requirements to practice hypnosis or hypnotherapy. The only bit of legislation surrounding hypnosis is the 1952 stage hypnosis act that was updated in 1996. Certification is not necessary to practice hypnosis or hypnotherapy. It is entirely up to you how much training you take – the most important thing is that you realise and understand the responsibility you take on if you do achieve being able to hypnotise effectively

Question by infin8: How can I submit myself to hypnosis?
I am primarily right brained, making me supposedly less able to hypnosis. I am wondering if there are any tips to allow myself to really listen to suggestion and follow it without anything interfering. Any ideas?
Maybe I should have mentioned this, I meant for self-hypnosis.

Best answer:

Answer by steve b
Well,

Your best bet is go see a professional to hypnotize you instead of trying to do it on yourself. Hypnosis is apparently great to uncover unconscious conflicts within and any childhood trauma.

Go visit www.spiritualregression.org It does deal with past lives but the therapist can only work with this life and your childhood if you think it would help you.

Good luck.
