Subliminal Hypnosis
The final type of hypnosis that will be
discussed in this chapter is subliminal
hypnosis. Often the subliminal
hypnosis messages will be placed on a
recording for the subject to listen to.
The recording will have two tracks and
each one will talk to a different part of
the mind. One track will contain a
cover sound that will be heard through
the conscious mind of the subject. The
cover sound is often something that is
easy for the brain to listen to such as
nature sounds or music. The other track
will contain direct suggestions that will
be heard through the unconscious mind
of the subject. These suggestions
present on the second track will be
repeated over and over throughout the
whole session.
Subliminal programs have the ability
to be played at any time and in any
place. You could be listening to these
messages while you are working or
even while watching TV. The best part
is you will not have to stop the task
that you are doing and sit down and
relax like what is required with NLP or
traditional hypnosis. In some cases,
subliminal programs will be added to
your regular hypnotic programs.
The use of subliminal programming is
not that prevalent. Most people will not
choose this method to change their
habits and behaviors. Research has
shown that subliminal programs are not
really that effective and so they will
not be able to replace NLP or hypnosis.
By some accounts, it could take more
than 80 hours of listening to the
subliminal message before it has an
effect and many times even that will
not be enough for most people.
According to Joel Weinberger, a
professor at the Adelphi University and
a psychologist, regular audio
subliminal tapes that can be purchased
at stores or online just do not work.
Subliminal psychodynamics may work
as long as there is some form of visuals
present. The popular options available
only contain auditory components. The
auditory is not enough to make this
method work on its’ own. Subliminal
suggestion will need to be paired with
other forms of hypnotherapy in order to
have the effectiveness that is desired.
Despite the portrayal of hypnosis by
the media, it is not an evil plot that is
meant to take over the minds of
unwilling subjects. In fact, if the
subject is not willing to undergo
hypnosis, it is pretty much impossible
to get them to go into the altered state.
Often, the use of hypnosis is to help
others improve their lives. This could
be in the form of weight management,
stopping smoking, improving other
health conditions, and assisting with
chronic pain management. Each of the
techniques is also important in helping
the subject to get to their overall goal.
While all of them can be effective, the
professional that you choose to work
with as well as the issue at hand will be
used to determine which of these
methods will best fit your needs and
assist in improving your life.
