There is a rational side of our mind that insists that things are linear, logical, rational and orderly. It has served us well and we can be grateful for being conscious, thinking beings that are capable of living rational lives, yet in hypnotherapy training, we spend a lot of time with what we call the ‘subconscious mind.’ This part of our being tends to be quite different from the analytical, reasoning conscious mind that many of us rely upon on a daily basis. When we learn hypnosis, we learn about a mind that is not linear, not rational, not always logical, and not always “programmed” for our greatest good. However, this part of our mind holds enormous potential for so much good, if we only dare to tap into its innate powers and abilities.
