One of the most powerful skills that you can possess is the ability to control your response to people and events that unfold around you. Having a positive outlook towards things and a confident demeanour for handling challenges is what sets successful people apart from the rest. Such personal control is often believed to be the cornerstone of excellence, achievement and overall happiness. And if you wish to possess these qualities in your personality, it may be time to explore the world of hypnotherapy and Neuro Linguistic Programming. What is hypnosis and Neuro Linguistic Programming? In this article, you will gain insights on these alternate medicine practices. Read on.

What is hypnosis (hypnotherapy)?

Contrary to what you might have heard about it, hypnosis is not a state of deep sleep or a trance like condition in which a person becomes more compliant to suggestions. Hypnotherapy actually takes a person to a state of enhanced awareness where their focus and concentration levels are at their peak. This is the state where a person’s conscious mind is supressed and unconscious thoughts are revealed. Hypnotherapy aims to re-programme patterns of behaviour within the mind, allowing people to get rid of irrational fears and phobias, manage stress and anxiety and develop a more confident and positive personality. It has now become a kind of alternate medicine, something that augments conventional medication or treatment. Its effectiveness depends from patient to patient – on how well they take to the treatment. Hypnotherapy has been known to help many people in getting back up on their feet after life has knocked them down.

What is Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP)?

Neuro Linguistic Programming was developed by Richard Bandler and John Grinder. They believed that a person’s behaviour and skills can be modified or programmed to suit the person’s life goals. According to their claims, the behaviour, language and neurological processes in a person are all connected, which gives NLP therapy a window to treat conditions such as psychosomatic illnesses, depression, tic disorders, phobias, learning disorders, and even common colds and allergies. Using NLP gives people a more conscious choice over what they do, how they react and behave and how they approach a problem and begin solving it. One can call NLP a therapy designed to help the development of competence in terms of behaviour, cognition and speech. People with psychological stress manifesting as physical limitations can be effectively "treated" using Neuro Linguistic Programming therapy.

Both of the therapies described above have been developed keeping in mind the mental health of the people who need guidance and support in getting through the difficult stages of their lives.
