What is Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy?

Hypnosis is simply an altered state of mind where the “subconscious mind” is in control whilst the “conscious mind” is detached. Hypnotherapy is the act of utilizing this state of hypnosis to introduce positive changes and ideas into any individual’s life.
The “conscious mind” is the part of the mind which is responsible for interpretation and rational thinking. The “subconscious mind” on the other hand operates autonomously and automatically and is shaped by every single thing an individual has ever experienced, heard, seen, done, thought or felt. The subconscious mind is always in conflict with the conscious mind and establishing a balance between the two, forms the basis of everything we do. Hypnotherapy introduces beneficial new ideas directly to the subconscious mind which in turn influences the rational and analytical properties of the conscious mind to implement these new ideas in everyday life. By introducing new and more positive ideas any individual can directly achieve a heightened understanding and realization of their full potential or gain the ability to overcome emotional and physical afflictions. These positive ideas are easily implemented by guiding an individual through hypnosis into a deeply relaxed, trance-like state, where the ‘conscious mind’ (critical mind) is bypassed and the “sub conscious” mind becomes more open and receptive to any new ideas and directions. Because the ‘sub conscious’ mind inadvertently controls the ‘conscious mind’ these changes are brought forward and made noticeable in everyday life.

Hypnotherapy is commonly delivered in the following format:

1. Induction: Guides the listener into a trance like state through spoken hypnotic techniques
2. Deepening: From the induction the deepening takes the listener further down into a greater trance-like state which is called the “Theta Realm” where the sub conscious fully overrides the conscious mind.
3. Hypnotic Body: Beneficial new ideas are introduced to the listener who is promoted to accept and deal with them in their own chosen way.
4. Direct Suggestions: The listener’s subconscious is directly guided to take positive, reinforced action and achieve the desired result from the session.
5. Conclusion: The listener is given the choice to either wake up or to continue sleeping if it is their normal bed time.

How The CD’s Work

 Primarily developed by Rick Collingwood and also used by our other hypnotherapeutic artist’s, the following format is used in almost all our hypnosis CD’s to ensure that the listener is guaranteed the most effective and powerful recorded hypnosis product available. Each CD works on the following levels:

Spoken hypnosis: The spoken hypnotic techniques used, developed and taught by Rick Collingwood and also adopted by our other artists, are now internationally proven and recognized as the most effective available on CD. By combining methods used by the pioneers of hypnosis and combining them with his own powerful and unique style, Rick Collingwood is now the definitive voice of hypnotherapy internationally. Rick’s trademark hypnotherapy style is powerful and direct. His voice is an impressive tool that is easy to listen to and will guide any listener into the deepest hypnotic state.

Neurosonic Frequencies: This is a combination of a specially designed Theta Rhythm and a constant F Sharp frequency to promote trance & deep relaxation. These frequencies are designed, used and owned only to Rick Collingwood and our other artists, and form a highly significant aspect of the effectiveness of our product.

Subliminal Messages: Positive, short phrases congruent to the CD topic, recorded at an inaudible level to the conscious mind and repeated throughout the recording. These phrases are extremely effective for the implementation of change.

The above combination ensures an end product that works on many levels to provide a safe, effective and powerful hypnotherapy session.

Choosing Which CD Title/s To Use

With over 50 titles available and the list growing steadily every year, there is a title available that will cover almost any affliction or personal growth area. Obviously such areas as weight loss, quitting smoking and insomnia are easily corresponded to their relevant title; the versatility and adaptability of certain titles for certain issues is sometimes less obvious.

Companion Sales of multiple CD titles for the treatment of one specific issue is not only an effective retail tool but also beneficial to the listener. By using more than one CD at a time the listener is able to gain the benefits of not only introducing new ideas that correspond directly to the heart of the issue but also other associated causes that may directly or indirectly affect or cause that same issue. For example the Weight Loss & Appetite Control CD will produce even more positive results when used in conjunction with the Healthy Eating CD. On the same token, the Happiness & Self Esteem CD is an excellent companion to almost every CD due it’s core role of introducing a more happy and positive lifestyle which in turn can be used as a more effective platform to implement change on many levels for many issues.

The use of multiple CD’s at the same time is best adhered to the guidelines on the previous page.
