Twilight Therapy Introduction
Welcome to Wielding the Future.
To put your mind at ease we will begin our session with introductions first.
I am your Hypnotherapist Athena J. Mann.
I have been certified through the American University of NLP, by Steve G. Jones himself, in Hypnotherapy as well as Neuro Linguistic Programming, NLP as we like to call it.
I will be combining NLP excellence in communication with your hypnosis to maximize the effect you will experience.
This will be the means by which I will easily walk you between worlds… the world of the conscious, the world of the subconscious and beyond into the world of the unconscious.
That is what I call the desired state of twilight, which is where I will be taking you to through a guided visualization of a beautiful sunset.
The first thing I need to point out, is that Holly Wood has done a lot to confuse people as to what the truth is about hypnosis.
I want you to realize the truth, as well as what you can expect before we begin.
Naturally you may be aware of everything I say while in hypnosis, but that in no way means that you were not in hypnosis.
You see, there are four types of brainwaves at stages of consciousness.
The first is Beta; this is your wave when fully conscious and discriminating all information being introduced to your mind.
The second level of brain wave, which is where we will go to, is: that of Alpha where your mind is more suggestible.
The human mind drifts naturally between Beta and Alpha several times a day.
It is a more relaxed brainwave which we can experience when watching TV or playing video games.
The next stage down in relaxation is the Theta wave state which is even more suggestible than Alpha.
The deepest stage of brainwave is that of Delta, which is rather like being sedated.
Delta wave lengths are what are induced, for the most extreme circumstances, where it can be suggested to your mind that it feels no pain and your mind will accept the suggestion as if it were given anesthesia.
I will be recording your session in order to make a copy for you.
It takes approximately twenty one days to establish a new behavior or to erase an old one.
You will need to listen to your recording every night when you are alone, and no one and nothing will disturb you.
Do not use it while operating a vehicle, or when you need to be consciously active.
I see you have your Doctors permission with you as we previously discussed: that is perfect.
Now, getting on with the exciting news: hypnosis can be used in an array of situations: smoking, dental phobias, teeth grinding and even as anesthetic for dental work, chest pains, wound healing, irritable bowel syndrome, Cystic Fibrosis, child birth and even snoring and much more.
Hypnosis has three times the effect of nicotine patches and fifteen times more effective than will power, for helping people stop smoking.
It has thirty times the effect of diet for helping people lose weight without pill popping and ninety percent of those who lose weight with hypnosis keep those unwanted pounds off.
As for pain management, it is useful in treatment of both acute pain and chronic pain and has biological as well as psychological effects.
It can be used for everything from rehabilitation to migraines; from speeding up healing to Fibromyalgia.
Dr. Ryke Greerd Hamer of Germany did a study on six-thousand five-hundred cancer patients, and six-thousands of those patients (mostly advanced cases) were still alive after four to five years after treatment with hypnosis.
The expanding power of Hypnosis, is everywhere, and is spreading every day; as it has since the first patient had a Thyroidectomy with hypnosis as his anesthesia in the nineteen fifties.
It has been uncovered by such respected publications and shows as:

Recline your chair to a comfortable position, and I will hand you pillows to finish propping you into a totally relaxing suspension, before I lay this light weight blanket over you.
Now tell me what you would like to get out of this session.
