3 popular Method of Self Hypnosis

We actually hypnotize someone or ourselves the way we feel easy to. But, there are some other popular ways for hypnotizing. So, in this particular article we are going to talk about three well-known and very effective way for self hypnosis. But, before we get started, we would like you to know that self hypnosis isn't a magical method that can radically change everything around you. It can merely do nothing but, motivating your subconscious mind the way you like. And the main task is gonna be done by you, yourself. So, what we imply is, self hypnosis basically awakens your hidden mind who controls the work, you are unable to. Self hypnosis creates a positive mind set up for the goal you set. And it pushes you to that in every possible way, even when you are totally unaware of that. Yes, that is the main thing it does. So, if you think, you can just use self hypnosis on yourself and can do the impossible stuffs, i am afraid you are mistaken. Hypnosis is no philosopher stone that can do anything, (even if it's impossible). Then, there is the question. what is hypnosis capable of? or why we are gonna try it on ourself? The answer is quite simple. It just make every possible job done by you yourself. Even those jobs you might think, are impossible to be done. So, basically what i am trying to say is you can use your whole being to attain a certain goal. You just have to go through the hypnotic trance and take the auto-suggestions. Then, your conscious as well as subconscious mind will push yourself towards your goal. 

1) Pendulum Method:

Pendulum Method

Pendulum method is probably most famous method for hypnotizing someone. We often see in the movies that the psychiatrist is holding a chain-clock in his hand. Holding the stretching clock he gives the hypnotic suggestions to the subject. We can, use this method for Self Hypnosis too. How? At first you have to collect a Pendulum. It's not that rare to find or to buy. However if you are unable to buy a pendulum, you can easily make one on your own. Find a short string and a slightly heavy object. Then, tie the object on the string. Now you are ready for this method alongside with your pendulum. Now, take a comfortable seat. Relax your body and clear your mind. Lift the pendulum you made in one hand. Start to stretch it from left side to right. Try to focus on the object you just tied with the string. Don't try hard. Clear your mind and then try to look at that gently. After that after a while you will find yourself in a hypnotic trance. Your eyes may turn to close itself. Let it be. After that, start your usual statements or auto-suggestions.

2) Betty Erickson Method:

Betty Erickson Method

Betty Erickson was the wife of Milton Erickson. She was a hypnotist too. She used self hypnosis in her own way. Later this method got popular and named after Betty Erickson. In this technique the subject is told to concentrate on what he is seeing, hearing and feeling by his skin. It can be perform in ordinary hypnosis as well as self hypnosis. This method is also known as 3,2,1 method. After getting in a comfortable position, you have to relax your body as well as mind. Then, try to remind any pleasant memory. Then, focus on a certain point in-front of you. Then you have to make 3 statements about what you can see, hear and feel by the skin. Then, again you have to focus and make 2 statement about what you see, hear and feel. The same way, try to make 1 statement each about what you can see, hear and feel. Don't panic. You can repeat any point if you can't find something you see or hear. You can repeat the process and take as many session as it takes to get into the hypnotic trance. A few minutes later, you will find yourself deeply relaxed. Now, you shall take the suggestions you wanna make.

Actually every hypnosis or hypnotic process is one kind of self hypnosis. How? Well, we all know that hypnosis is a process that needs the cooperation of the subject himself.

Self hypnosis

 As we know, in a regular hypnotic session the hypnotherapist performs as a guide. He leads the subject to the hypnotic trance and make him focus on certain something. The therapist or hypnotist carefully suggests his subject to attain the certain goal. But, self hypnosis is a little bit different in this case. The subject goes under the same hypnotic process though. However, he has to act as his own guide.   Many of the people get confused between self hypnosis and meditation. In meditation we let our mind get relaxed and direct it without a purpose. But, in hypnosis we aim for a certain and clear purpose. So, it is very important for us to make our own purpose in mind before we get started. The self hypnosis process requires a certain place where you can take a rest sitting or lying.
