Little Rock Hypnosis The Practice Frequently Asked Questions   1.   What is hypnosis?       Hypnosis is an altered state of consciousness in which we allow ourselves to become      highly responsive to suggestion.  Guided Self-Hypnosis is effective for adults, teens      and children.  From ages 6 to 96, guided self-hypnosis provides a relaxing, imaginative,      and self-empowering means of creating positive change by upgrading how we think on      the deeper, subconscious level.  Guided self-hypnosis is a tool, and when used correctly,       we are simply "training" the mind and the brain to think on a higher level.         Everyone is advised to give caution to advertisements about hypnosis that reflect       atypical results and wildly exaggerated claims.  Don't fall for improbable weight loss      figures, inflated success statistics or statements that lead to unrealistic expectations.       If it sounds too good to be true, it is.  You do not want to risk your health or deserved      degree of success by believing "smoke, fog and mirrors" advertising.        Please choose your practitioner carefully.      Visit the "CAUTIONS" page of this website for further infomation regarding your choice      of practitioners.    2.    Is it sleep?           No, you are not asleep.  Your conscious mind, or 'critical factor', the analytical part      of your mind, becomes subdued, not asleep.  The subconscious mind  becomes open,      highly focused and receptive to the skillfully crafted beneficial suggestions that it can      choose to accept or reject.   3.   So, I don't have to give up control?       That's right!  Each and every one of us has the choice to accept the helpful       suggestions or reject them at any time.  You are in complete control.  You will not do      or say anything in hypnosis that you would not do or say while consciously alert.       Also, no one can make another go into hypnosis ... you either want to or you don't.       Hypnosis is a subjective state ... you allow yourself to drift into it.   4.  Does it work and can anyone experience hypnosis?       Yes!   Hypnosis is a very effective method of eliminating unwanted or bad habits,      learning new skills, and of creating both positive behavioral changes and healthier      lifestyles.       Anyone can experience success from hypnosis.   5.   How much does a hypnosis session cost?        Initial Visit                                   $250.00 (Typically 2 hours)       Booster/Subsequent Visits      $125.00 per hour (Typically 1 hr. visits)       The cost depends on you ... your goals and commitment level.        Most one-on-one sessions are recorded to CD for self-hypnosis reinforcement and one      session may be sufficient for your situation or goals.         The initial appointment includes the consultation to identify your goals, an      assessment of your history and challenges, a short tutorial detailing how the      hypnosis works, an action plan, and the hypnosis session.  Your CD of the      hypnosis session is recorded live for you to use as reinforcement.  This way, your      reinforcement is customized, specific to you and your situation or challenge.       The initial visit is normally two hours and costs $250.00.       Subsequent*, follow-up or "booster" visits are typically one hour at $125.00 per hour.        Gift certificates are available all year long, for any giving occasion!  Just ask and we will      send your customized, specific-to-your-occasion gift certificate to you or directly to      your recipient.      * The following 3 Programs initial appointment are ALWAYS 1.5 to 2 hour visits: Weight Loss, Smoking           Cessation and Dipping Cessation due to the extensive amount of information shared.  Most other           sessions can be accomplished in one hour typically, once the initial visit that includes the tutorial is           completed.                 6.   Are the sessions group or one-on-one?
