West Sussex Hypnotist, Alex Vrettos, Asks Can I be Hypnotised?
If you are really good at hypnosis, I should be able to change your subconscious patterns in a very short space of time with minimum effort because your subconscious will do what I tell it. If you are quite good at hypnosis, but not awesome, I might have to be a little more creative in getting your subconscious to do what you want, but you will know hypnosis is still likely to change your life if you invest. If you are not good at being hypnotised, then there is a chance that I can help, but there is more of a gamble for you, a little more hit and miss. It would be good for you to know the answer to this question before investing fully in me as your hypnotist.
So, what determines how good you are at being hypnotised?
There are many variables that can make it harder for you, such as nerves, the wrong mood, location, feelings about me, belief or lack of, willingness, previous experience and numerous others. These can all be worked through to make you better at being hypnotised in a session.
There is also evidence that neurological architecture has a say. The Rostrum is part of the Corpus Callosum, which links the right and left hemispheres of the brain. Good hypnotees tend to have a larger Rostrum than people who are less good hypnotees. This is not something that can be worked on, and I have no idea how big your Rostrum is without cutting your head open, and I am not proposing to do that.
Instead, I suggest that you come and see me in Worthing, West Sussex, for a 30-minute consultation to see how good at hypnosis you are. This consultation is free, and if we find out you can be hypnotised and you wish to go ahead in asking me to help you with fear, anxiety, panic, social anxiety disorder, low mood, phobia, depression, stress, recovery from trauma or anything else you need, you know it will be worth the investment.
If the answer to the question 'Can I be hypnotised?' Is YES, then the answer to questions such as 'Can I be hypnotised to forget someone?' Is YES. The answer to 'Can I be hypnotised to stop drinking?' is YES. The answer to 'Can I be hypnotised to lose weight?' Is YES. And an infinite number of similar questions.
If you can be hypnotised, I will probably be able to help you with any subconscious patterns that you need changing, so knowing this in advance makes your investment with me much safer.

Since writing this article, my understanding of how the mind works has improved. I understand and work with the idea of unhypnosis. Anyone who comes to me because they feel fear when there is no actual danger present is experiencing a form of self-hypnosis. They are experiencing a story in their mind as reality. Half my work with my clients is helping them ‘wake-up’ from that story so they can live once again in the moment.
