Hello Everyone,

So, why do we yell sleep if Hypnosis isn’t sleep? Someone sent me this question a few days ago and I thought it would make a good post.

To be honest the word sleep is one of the biggest reason people tend to think hypnosis is sleep. The fact of the matter is Hypnosis isn’t sleep at all. When you enter Hypnosis you are actually more “awake” then you are now. You actually become more alert and aware, but because you’re in a very relaxed state it appears from a outside point of view that you are asleep.

Hello Everyone

While I was out the other day I ran into an old friend who to my surprise is now a doctor. I haven’t seen this friend in a long time so we decided to get together for lunch in a few days and play catch up.

We finally met up for lunch the other day and I began to tell him how I’m slowly moving out of Real Estate and have since become a Certified Hypnotist over the course of the last few years. This caught him off guard a little and was curious on how I made the transition from the Real Estate world to the Hypnosis world. I told him my story and he was pretty surprised that I made such an interesting life change. Overall I thought he took it quite well. After a moment or two of silent he asked me a question. He asked me when I was moving from Columbus? I told him I wasn’t planning to move at all and was curious as to why he assumed I was moving.

As a hypnotist one of the main questions I always ask people is have you been hypnotized before? The majority of people usually answer this question with a simple “no”. Once in a while I will meet someone who says they have been hypnotized, but that’s pretty rare here in Columbus.

When I hear someone say they haven’t been hypnotized before I think to myself this is great! I have a chance to educate someone on hypnosis and maybe, just maybe change the way someone views this wonderful profession. To me it’s the law of compounding. One person tells one person and another person tells two people and so on.

The fact is that most of the people on this planet have been hypnotized or been in hypnosis. Now you may be reading this saying I think I would know if I’ve been hypnotized before. I have never been to a hypnotist. My answer back to all of you saying that is if you have never been hypnotized before, then how do you know what hypnosis is?

Things have come long way since the first person was ever hypnotized. We have learned so much more about hypnosis, patterns and the way our words affect suggestion and the way they affect the client.

This is the year 2008 and many of us are still using words that are causing hypnotist to shoot themselves in the foot. As we all know the media has really given hypnosis a bad rep over the years. While their are some good reports out there, certain movies and books have convinced people that what we do is magic or something from the occult. The average person tends to think we have “super powers” or some type of control over people. So it’s important that we stop using certain words that give people the wrong idea about what we do. I also promise that if you start to change your vocab you will notice a strong difference in the way your sessions go.

Hello Everyone

I have been getting a lot of e-mails asking is it possible to hypnotize people in a loud location. So I thought I would write a little article about how to work with clients in these situations.

First off, it is possible to perform hypnosis in a loud location and it’s done all the time. While the client and I might prefer a quiet location this isn’t always possible. The fact of the matter is that unless you have a sound proof booth their will always be some type of noise around. For instance, noises such as cars passing by, the A/C or heater coming on, People making noise outside, dogs barking and so much more.

Hello Everyone

As many of you can know see whatsonmybrain.com has had a serious face lift. I have been working on little projects behind the scene and the final product is has been released.

I am a big believer in moving forward and felt it was time for this site to move forward. As some of you may remember the goal of this site was to document my journey to become the youngest certified hypnotist in Columbus, Georgia. The other goal of this site was to become a resource for beginning hypnotist and a resource to help educate the public about hypnosis. I was planning to wait to begin the changes to the site to make it more of a resource, but I have decided that the time is right. It time to no longer hide in the shadows and to make a move forward.

As many of you are viewing you can see we decided to go to a new blog format. This new design allows me more flexibility and more space to add more resources and information about hypnosis. This site is also based around widgets which make it very easy to update and redesign when I’m ready too. Some of the new things we have added to the site are as follows

*A hypnosis F.A.Q. section to help answer any questions you may have about hypnosis.

*A Glossary area with some common hypnosis terms and definitions

*A hypnosis article section for many different articles on hypnosis and all things hypnosis related

*A new site interface and design, which we hope will be very easy to navigate and easier on the eyes than the last one.

These are just a few of the new changes taking place here. I have a lot of other stuffed planned for future so please keep checking back for future updates and new developments from whatsonmybrain.com

Hey Everyone

Everything has been going great since my last post. I have just been studying and trying to further my education in hypnosis. While I was looking around on the internet I came across a wonderful FAQ on hypnosis written by a great hypnotist named Roy Hunter. I read the entire f.a.q. twice and it is quite good. So for anyone who is interesting in understanding hypnosis this FAQ is a great resource. The link to the FAQ can be found directly below.

I hope you guys get some good information out of this FAQ here. I already knew a lot of the information it contains from my current studying, but there were some great gems located in the FAQ
