Many people are drawn to hypnosis training because of the career opportunities, the ability to help other people in deep and meaningful ways, and just for the pure joy of working with the altered state known as hypnosis. However, many people are drawn to this profession because of the profound spiritual implications that go along with our work. This week’s blog entry will focus on just a few of the spiritual components of hypnotherapy training.
Who am I?
One of the most powerful questions we can ask on the spiritual path is “Who am I?” The question of one’s existence could be said to be the core of any spiritual or religious path. It is easy to believe we know who we are in our regular waking consciousness, yet our conscious mind is only a very small part of our overall being. When we ask “Who am I?” we can explore the subconscious roots of our being and even the superconscious realms. The more we explore, the more we discover that our regular waking consciousness is just the smallest part of the grand totality of our greater self.
Nurturing a Heart of Love
The subconscious mind is considered in hypnotherapy to be the seat of our emotions. When we explore this level of our being we discover the birthplace of negative emotions. Hurt, fear, anger and guilt can all be found to have their origins in this part of our mind. Through hypnotherapy and even through a solid hypnotherapy education, students and clients transform hurt into joy, anger into forgiveness, guilt into self-love and fear into true love itself. Through hypnotherapy training we can learn to open our hearts, clear out old emotions and patterns that no longer serve us, and learn what it means to be truly free to live from love.
Deep Meditation
Hypnosis can be a profound launching point for the deeper states of consciousness as found in the world’s great mystical traditions. Most meditators find that they can go much deeper when they know where to go and when they are guided through the power of hypnotic suggestion. Ancient and modern mediators have struggled with tremendous discipline to achieve states of being that are much more easily accessible when the body and mind are already relaxed in the hypnotic state. In our transpersonal hypnotherapy training students are exposed to in-depth teachings on meditation and how this practice blends so beautifully with the hypnotic state itself.
