Hypnosis.....has anyone ever tried it?
Hypnosis.....has anyone ever tried it?
Just curious. I have been listening to audio hypnosis recording on a variety of subjects. I was wondering if anyone else had found success using subconscious reprogramming through hypnosis wether taped or live. I tend to believe in the technique, but that's just me. I mean if it helps, why not try it. Also, my gut instinct tells me that the process will work better if you start off with a clear sober mind. I not saying using this to get sober, just maintain a level of sobriety over a long period of time. Your stories will be welcome.
I've never tried it, but a friend did for smoking. He's been smoke free for 3 years since. So, I guess in some instances, it can work. I still think the main ingredient is a willing attitude.
I've found that you have to find a quite place, listen by do not concentrate . I think by not focusing, the hypnosis reaches into the subconscious better. Also, I find it interesting that the limbic system, our old reptilian brain, strongly controls our desire to drink booze, as well as satisfy all our other anima-like behaviors, how nice! I wonder if hypnosis can kinda of bypass these urges.

I've been utilizing and personalizing a form of meditation in my life and it's been insightful in many areas of my life. It's not for everyone but then again, what is?
I use Self-Hypnosis for sleep and relaxation and it seems to help me. I've had professional hypnosis for insomnia and to quit smoking. I'm still smoking, sadly.
I never tried it to stop drinking. I do recommend it for insomnia but it's something you have to use on a regular basis to get the best benefit.

I tried it once and it had no impact on my drinking. It certainly will not alter our genetic makeup so we will remain alcoholics.
Not saying it won't help but I don't believe it is a silver bullet.
