✨ Hypnotherapy Myths vs Reality ✨
There are so many misconceptions about hypnotherapy and they often stop people from trying something that could genuinely help them feel calmer and more in control.
Here are the three myths I hear most often:
❌ Myth 1: “Hypnosis is mind control.”
✔ Reality: You stay fully aware, fully in control, and can stop at any time. You’re never “under” anything.
❌ Myth 2: “It’s like stage hypnosis.”
✔ Reality: Therapeutic hypnosis is calm, gentle and focused on helping you reduce stress and anxiety, nothing dramatic or theatrical.
❌ Myth 3: “I don’t think I can be hypnotised.”
✔ Reality: If you can relax, listen and imagine, you can benefit from hypnotherapy.
Hypnotherapy is simply a different doorway into the nervous system, a space where stress softens and the mind becomes more receptive to change.
