Hypnosis can work with intuition in many ways. You can use it to improve your physical health and self-image, to resolve emotional conflicts, and to increase spiritual insight. Hypnosis makes these changes easier because it allows you to overcome your conscious mind's resistance to new ideas and its attachment to old beliefs. For example, a person who tends to eat chocolate bars when he's nervous could ask a hypnotist to suggest that he no longer crave candy when under stress. After explaining to the hypnotized client why too much candy could be harmful, the hypnotherapist might then suggest drinking cool, fresh water instead of eating chocolate when the craving comes on strong. |

In the case of improving your physical health and mental attitudes, a hypnotist can help by replacing old thought patterns with new ones. This can apply to overcoming problems such as stress, insomnia, smoking, nervous habits, allergies, phobias, and more. For instance, a hypnotist with a client who wanted to quit smoking would access their client's unconscious mind. The hypnotist would then review the benefits of giving up cigarettes before suggesting a new behavior to replace the old one. Once the unconscious mind was convinced of the wisdom of not smoking, it would lend its support to the conscious decision to quit. Hypnotism can also help you improve in areas in which you're already strong, such as sports performance, public speaking, test taking, study skills, and more. |

However, in order to overcome bad habits or achieve new goals, you often must resolve long-standing emotional issuesand doing so usually requires working with a hypnotherapist. Such professionals are trained to help you get to the underlying cause of problems, which are often deeply imbedded in memory because they are so painful. The pain will persist and continue to create new problems based on old habits unless you address the underlying cause. |

One technique employed by some hypnotherapists to investigate the source of deeply buried emotional problems is age regression. Age regression involves guiding a patient's memory back to an early time in her lifeor even before she was bornin order to uncover painful events or examine unpleasant emotions. Some people claim to remember experiences from past lives, another facet of psychic phenomena. |
