We hear a lot of beliefs around hypnosis “you will lose control”, “we will manipulate you”. These are popular beliefs that are totally wrong.

Ericksonian hypnosis is nothing more than a very natural and mundane phenomenon. Without knowing, you experience it every day, a moment of inattention that takes you off in your daydreams, immersion in a book, a film that captivates you, driving while thinking of something else etc…hypnosis, it’s just that. C’est vous connecter avec ce qui se passe à l’intérieur de vous et c’est même fort agréable !

You are therefore very far from losing control, this is not show hypnosis. Ericksonian hypnosis simply allows you to let go and be in contact with your subconscious. As soon as your attention moves outside of the present moment, you are in a state of hypnosis.

Milton Erickson, the founder of Ericksonian hypnosis conceives of the unconscious as a “light tank”, a part of us that asks only to cooperate. He is in a way the repository of all our internal resources, of all our learning, with all our positive forces capable of blowing us solutions to solve all our problems.
