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.

I am a college student in southwestern Indiana.
I have recently been listening to your Power of Conversational Hypnosis program.
I have noticed some dramatic changes in the way I interact with people.
I am enjoying making other people feel good with the techniques I have learned.
I have a greater sense of influence and feel like I have an edge in life.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

The following letter from my ten-year-old daughter soon after I returned from the Long Beach Conversational Hypnosis Professional Hypnotherapy Certification is the most rewarding I have ever received.
For the best Daddy in the Universe...
Daddy!! !! !!
Dear Daddy, I can't tell you how grateful I am about you giving me a Happy Place.
It was the Happiest time of my Life!
I woke up smiling and I just couldn't stop!
Now whenever I'm sad or mad I can go to my happy place instead of just sitting around and being bored.
I know my happy place will always cheer me up whenever I'm not happy.
Your now very happy daughter.

I have spent the last six years developing myself.
I have tried everything out there: Goal Setting, Positive Thinking, Eastern Philosophy – I even took up Tai Chi.
But there were things still missing from my life.
It's ironic: as a Kiwi I'm naturally a friendly and chatty guy.
The problem is that I didn't used to "get" people.
Empathy to me was just a curious concept.
So I never had really "intimate" relationships.
Then I stumbled across Igor's course...
I learned loads of things.
The strange thing is that I could feel things happen in the back of my mind.
It was as though someone was lifting invisible barriers from my mind, leaving me feeling more free and easy.
The really crazy thing is what happened after...
I found that somehow I was getting much better rapport with people.
Work colleagues seemed to be nicer to me.
My friends seemed to be opening up to me more.
But the best thing is that I now have a great relationship with a beautiful, loving woman.
She's always telling me that I am one of the few people that actually "gets" her!

The Conversational Hypnosis training helped me to help a good friend when she was struggling to make a living without the self-confidence to stand up to customers who were trying to take advantage of her.
I used Igor's technique of repeating something I knew about myself while pointing at her and saying something like "I have learned through long experience that I have to stand up for myself and hold the line when people are trying to take advantage of me".
To my pleasure and surprise, she went back to her employers and pretty much got the price she was asking for (that was already less than she should have been paid for her services as a home care provider for a terminally ill patient).
The Power of Self Hypnosis course helped me with my goal to be stronger, leaner and healthier than I was at age 30 (I am almost age 72).
I used the self hypnosis techniques to bolster my confidence to overcome difficulties with sciatica and achilles tendonitis in order to establish and follow an excellent eating and workout plan.
I removed almost 100 pounds of extra fat from my body and am now stronger, leaner and healthier than I was at age 40.
I am not done yet, but I have the confidence that I will achieve that primary goal before summer is over.

I have so much success stories from the training in CHPH program.
And I have got many to quit smoking.
And 1 alcoholic just quit it after 1 session and some follow up to strengthen it.

I am currently making a living using the techniques I have learnt from Igor's product and training programs.
I get great results, and when looking back on all the trainings I have taken, I can honestly say I am only really using techniques that I have learnt from these programs, and that is all I need to get great results.
I do many quitting smoking sessions and all I do is follow the strategy outlined in the product How to Make a Lot of Money Doing Hypnotherapy, and I am constantly getting referrals from happy customers. :)

The Lifelong Success System, has been a foundational aspect of personal transformation and success.
It has allowed me to better my relationships with friends, and also become more successful in business situations.
Conversational hypnosis has been another layer to the ground work of better understanding myself.
Since being exposed to this course, I understand the way I behave and respond in situations, in addition to understanding how human to human interactions are a form of hypnosis.

One customer, who has bought my car, complained that he smokes 2 packs of cigarettes a day from 17 years of age and he is 38 years old now.
He admits that he is suffering from cough, and cannot quit.
However, he mentioned his 15 years of his son, as his pride.
Suddenly, he has seen my hypnotherapist diploma on the wall and was asking if I could help him?
It was my first experience.
The client was a Ukrainian.
I talked with him for 20 minutes, in Russian, tried to follow the protocol of Igor with some selected methods which were the most comprehensible to the client.
A month later the client came to Holland and said that he has quit smoking.
In addition, every time when he is coming on business to Holland now, he turns to me for any advice...
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 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.
