What Is Hypnosis?

Hypnosis is a state of deep relaxation in which the subconscious mind is extraordinarily receptive to positive thoughts and suggestions. Through hypnosis, your behavior can be modified to benefit you by replacing old beliefs you no longer need or want with the new ones you desire. Each of us naturally enters hypnosis several times every day while watching TV, when overwhelmed by the beauty of nature, or a new romance, or even while driving long distances.



What is Hypnotherapy?

Dr. John Kappas, founder of HMI, Hypnosis Motivation Institute, literally defined the profession of hypnotherapy in 1973, when he wrote and defined the profession of a "Hypnotherapist" in the Federal Dictionary of Occupational Titles. That definition remains in force and unchanged today. And that definition is:  "Induces hypnotic state in client to increase motivation or alter behavior patterns; Consults with client to determine nature of problem, Prepares client to enter hypnotic state by explaining how hypnosis works and what client will experience.  Tests subject to determine degree of physical and emotional suggestibility.  Induces hypnotic state in client, using individualized methods and techniques of hypnosis based on interpretation of test results and analysis of client's problem. May train client in self hypnosis conditioning."*
