As you can see, there are many reasons you might want to do a hypnosis training course to enhance or transform different aspects of your life… or your mind. Or to use it in a more therapeutic setting to help heal other people.
Hypnosis is simply an altered state of consciousness that allows for direct communication with the unconscious mind, rather than the conscious mind.
This mind-state shift, from conscious to unconscious and back again, happens to everyone naturally all the time – you’re just usually not aware of it.
For example, when your mind drifts off as you watch the rain pour down the window. Or when you’re driving a very familiar journey – such as the office to your home – and you go into auto-pilot and don’t really remember the trip.
A hypnotist simply uses this natural mind-state change for a specific purpose, generally to help someone create a positive change in their life.
Although in stage hypnosis, it is usually done for fun and entertainment purposes – of course with the subject’s consent.
When a subject is intentionally put into hypnosis, they become highly responsive to the hypnotist's suggestions.
This is because hypnosis is able to bypass the critical part of the conscious mind and work directly with the unconscious mind, which is where deeply ingrained behaviors and beliefs are stored.
This is why hypnosis is very effective at treating negative beliefs, fears and phobias, as well as healing and improving performance.

Hypnosis training is for anyone who wants to use hypnosis to make positive changes to their life, or to the lives of others.
Given its fast and effective results, hypnotherapy is becoming a popular career choice and powerful form of trusted therapy.
Many life coaches, NLP practitioners and other types of therapists also learn hypnosis as a complementary healing modality.
And given its similarity to meditation, self-hypnosis has been becoming increasingly popular over recent years as it’s a highly effective tool for decision making, achieving goals and achieving deep relaxation.
Anyone can learn hypnosis, it isn’t magic, mind control or difficult to learn. Like any skill, it just requires training, persistence, patience and practice!
Hypnosis can manage and dissolve a huge variety of complex emotional and physical issues in a relatively short amount of time when compared to traditional forms of therapy, such as psychotherapy (which can take years).
Hypnosis can transform some issues in as little as one session, although it depends on the issue and also the person.
Here is a list of some of the most common issues that hypnosis can be used for:
To overcome a variety of addictions
And much more.

The Conversational Hypnosis Mastery DVD program helped me to be more confident in breaking people's resistance down and gave me the confidence in helping me use conversational hypnosis in my day to day life.
The Money In Your Mind program helped and taught me the importance of wealth and how to offer value to people every day.
It also taught me about debt and how to get out of debt. I found this really useful.
The Conversational Hypnosis Professional Hypnotherapy online course was excellent at helping me use trance without using scripts, and has helped me 'drop' people into hypnosis easier and I don't have to think so much about the language anymore.
It's all pretty natural now.
The Lifelong Success affirmations have made me feel more confident and happy in myself, and more relaxed around wealth as well.

One technique I am very pleased with is the training technique for the use of Power Words, inserting such words into random sentences as connectors.
This has enabled me to get some natural Ericksonian flow to my hypnotic delivery and effortlessly tailor my suggestions to meet the client’s needs.

I purchased the Conversational Hypnosis package expressly to help one client who had experienced extreme abuse as a child and was experiencing understandable difficulty sleeping as she was having frightening nightmares based on her childhood trauma.
This spiraled into difficulty keeping haunting images from affecting her during the day.
Even after listening to the first audio, I was able to help her immediately find a peaceful sleep filled night for the first time in her life.
I was helping a teenage boy (16 or 17) who was sent to me by his mother because of anger problems.
He frequently became quite verbally abusive toward her, and also had very poor self-esteem.
I had been doing a number of things with him over a few sessions, and one day I was exploring his internal dialog.
It turned out that he kept giving himself some very negative messages.
I looked him in the eyes and asked, "Do you ever tell yourself anything good about yourself?", and he gave me a very confused look.
I followed up with, "You CAN tell yourself good things about yourself." (Shortest Hypnotic Blitz I've ever done.)
When I saw him the next week, he was like a different person, he was actually smiling.
I saw him a month later, after he returned to school, and he told me how his friends and classmates were commenting about how good it was to see him smiling.

I continually use the NLP to manage employees.
We completed a performance management training using techniques I’ve learned and saw an 8% increase in overall productivity.
Using my hypnotherapy training, I have worked with several local high school athletes.
Just this past basketball season, I helped dramatically improve shooting percentage and confidence, which lead to a 200% increase in rebounds.
I meet with clients on a daily basis whether in sales or service.
I use NLP and Socratic questioning to help build rapport and better communicate our message.
We have seen tremendous improvements in helping our clients better manage their HR, which has kept them from major lawsuits.
My girlfriend has had Crohn’s for the past 19 years.
After just one session using basic hypnotherapy techniques, she noticed a dramatic decrease in day-to-day pain.
She now uses the techniques whenever she is feeling stressed to reduce her symptoms and swears by hypnosis.
My girlfriend once developed an embarrassing and painful attack of the hiccups while we were in the pub - so loud that everyone was looking!
I'd just finished learning the Non Awareness Set, so asked her how her hand was feeling, and then she would know how she wasn't going to hiccup any more - just ran her through a couple of loops and within two minutes she'd stopped hiccupping and her embarrassment had vanished, replaced with a massive smile!

I have many of Hypnosis Training Academy’s products because I can’t find anyone else that offers the same amount of value - that is why I keep buying more :)
I don't even know where to begin when it comes to sharing the techniques that I have learned.
My whole communication style has changed drastically over the years.
All of my relationships with people have become immensely stronger.
It’s funny how you notice life changing before your eyes as you implement these techniques in different ways.
Why, you might ask?
When you communicate efficiently, people can’t help but notice, and more opportunities come into life simply by the fact that people are "spellbound by your communication."
Igor has brought magic back into life for me and I can’t thank him enough for that.

Even though I followed several courses in NLP and Hypnosis I still got a lot of new ideas from The Power of Conversational Hypnosis.
This is stuff I use daily in just about everything I do - from writing sales letters to communicating with all kinds of people.
This course has definitely improved my communication skills and my power to change situations - for myself and to help others.
I got Igor's Conv. Hypnosis course and I find it very detailed and very well put together.
I am learning a huge amount from it and will be studying and practicing the course over the next few months.
It was exceptionally good value as well and I am looking forward to honing my hypnosis skills.
I do like his attitude and especially when he often mentions using hypnosis 'ethically.'
This is very important, yet, some Hypnosis courses only talk about 'controlling others' with no mention of ethics.
The Art of Conversation course was also very good.
I would highly recommend his Conversational Hypnosis Course.

I use "The Power of Self Hypnosis" for everything I can think of: improving public speaking skills, personal development, relationships, & networking.
I've found the Lifelong Success affirmations have built a new level of confidence with me, the previous lack of which seems to have been at the root of my long history of procrastination, which is quite quickly disappearing from my life.

I am a personal trainer and recently purchased the Secrets of Hypnosis Revealed programme.
There is a lot to learn from this programme, and I haven't finished it yet.
There is so much valuable information in this programme that it made a difference in my interaction with people from the first week.
This programme gave me the tools to lead interactions and get what I want from people.
This is invaluable for my training sessions and it also enables me to have greater control on my relationships in general.
Thank you so much.
