throughout the day.\u00a0 It is a completely different state from sleep and has quite different actions on the mind and body. \u00a0\u00a0It makes use of the natural phenomenon of changing from conscious to subconscious states that is constantly happening during the day.\u00a0<\/p><p>There are four states of consciousness which are associated with different brain wave patterns:<\/p><h6><strong>Awake (beta waves)<\/strong><\/h6><p>This is usually associated with the normal<strong> waking <\/strong>state of consciousness where you are going about your <strong>daily business<\/strong>.\u00a0 You are experiencing your world through your <strong>senses<\/strong> &#8211; seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting and touching.\u00a0 This is the conscious level of mental and emotional processing.\u00a0 You are operating from a heightened level of alertness, logic and critical reasoning.\u00a0 You are making decisions and communicating with the external world around you.\u00a0 If you operate for a period of time at an elevated level this can translate into stress, anxiety and restlessness.<\/p><h6><strong>Daydream (alpha waves)<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h6><p>When you say you are \u201cabsent-minded\u201d, you mean that your conscious mind (beta) is absent which implies our <strong>subconscious mind<\/strong> is present. Your subconscious mind is responsible for your <strong>survival<\/strong>, and regulates your breathing, hunger, tiredness and other life-critical functions.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0If you daydream, you \u201cgo off somewhere\u201d and are \u201cbrought back\u201d to conscious awareness by something external &#8211; a sound or comment. \u00a0This daydream or meditative state is the one we use during most <strong>hypnosis<\/strong> as this is optimal for programming your mind in the direction you choose.\u00a0 The alpha brainwave frequency heightens your imagination, learning, concentration, visualisation, and memory.\u00a0 It is the \u201cvoice of your intuition\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5781a2f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5781a2f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h6><strong>Deep subconscious state (theta waves) <\/strong><\/h6><p>This is the state you are in just before you go to sleep and just as you wake up in the morning. Some people call this the <span>somnambulistic state, or<\/span> \u201cdeep trance\u201d or the \u201ctwilight state\u201d.\u00a0 It is similar to the feeling when you are in deep meditation or light sleep, including the REM dream state. \u00a0In this state you have a sense of <strong>deep spiritual connection<\/strong> and oneness with the universe.\u00a0 Your consciousness is turned toward your inner world.\u00a0 It is often characterised by vivid visualisations, profound creativity, great inspiration and exceptional insight.\u00a0 It is thought this is the level of super-consciousness where your mind\u2019s deepest level of programs operates.\u00a0<\/p><p><strong>Sleep (delta waves)<\/strong><\/p><p>In this state you are in a deep, dreamless <strong>sleep<\/strong> or in a very deep transcendental <strong>meditative state<\/strong> where your awareness is completely detached. Sleep and this state of delta brainwaves are associated with healing and regeneration.\u00a0 It is the gateway to the collective consciousness.\u00a0 \u00a0The deep impressions of the mind are stored here.\u00a0 When certain conditions are met, they can play out in dreams or grow into actions in the waking state.<\/p><h5><strong>So what does this mean in our daily life?<\/strong><\/h5><p>When you are awake, you fluctuate between the alpha and beta states of consciousness and are influenced by both.\u00a0 \u00a0For example, you might remember watching a TV program and realising you haven\u2019t got a clue who a character is, or where the story has gone, because you \u201cdrifted off\u201d.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p><p>Often the subconscious mind is helpful.\u00a0 For example, when we were learning to drive, our conscious mind had to use all its focus to remember to check the mirrors, change the gears and look out for hazards.\u00a0 When we mastered the skills to become an experienced driver, we transferred the responsibility for the mechanics of driving to our subconscious.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0This is illustrated well when we arrive at our destination completely unaware of the journey.\u00a0 Our subconscious mind has responded to hazards like red lights, roundabouts and other drivers and safely got us home.\u00a0<\/p><p>At other times, our subconscious mind is not so helpful.\u00a0 For example, some of the skills or habits we formed when we were younger no longer serve a positive purpose for us, but our subconscious mind does not realise that and continues to use them.\u00a0 Smoking is an example of this.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-b23b087

or help with some conditions and disorders.\u00a0 When administered by a professionally trained and skilled therapist the benefits can be long lasting and often permanent.<\/p><p>The phenomenon of hypnosis involves hyper-awareness which leads to an alteration of a person&#8217;s state of consciousness.<span style=\"font-size: 15px;\"> <\/span> During hypnosis, a person will often appear as if they are asleep, although in reality they are actually processing their thoughts through a deep, focused awareness.<\/p><p>Our past experiences have created many beliefs that we continue to hold to be true, but which are unhelpful for us, and are, in fact, impacting on our lives in a way that is holding us back from happiness.\u00a0 Hypnosis can be especially useful in analysing these beliefs and assessing whether we wish to continue with them for the rest of our lives.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column
