How can hypnosis be done by phone? Easily. Hypnosis is induced and sustained by the voice. Ask anyone who ever did it and they will tell you their eyes were closed the whole time they were in trance. This means that phone sessions are easy to do, since looking at a hypnotist is never necessary. Listening is.
What is hypnosis? It is a natural state you experience routinely. You may know it by other names such as daydreaming, highway hypnosis, guided imagery, being preoccupied, visualization, guided meditation, focused concentration, yoga savassanah, or being in love.
What can I work on? Weight loss, better golf and other sports, stress reduction, quitting smoking, discomfort while flying, text anxiety, plus past lives and other spiritual hypnosis, to mention a few.
What if I have never been hypnotized before? Of course you have been hypnotized before, just not professionally. When you watch tv or a movie and become totally engrossed, you are in a light trance state. When you sit down at your computer to surf the web and time flies by, you are in a trance state; time distortion is a primary indicator of trance. When you daydream on the freeway and miss your exit, you are in highway hypnosis. The only difference between these states and a professional session is that with a pro, you are completely absorbed by the task you have set for yourself to improve your life.
What will I need? One or two hours of uninterrupted time, a recliner or comfy chair with arms, a telephone, and access to a qualified hypnotist who does phone sessions.
What does it cost? Hypnotists rarely charge by the hour, most charge by the session. The range is $90 to $200 a session, and beware of anyone whose fee is greater.
How do I pay? By credit or debit card, though some will allow you to mail a check.
Should I buy a package of sessions? Never. Since there is no way to know in advance exactly how many sessions you will need, it is best to pay for each separately.
What kind of phone set up should I use? A landline will give you a much better connection than a cellphone, as you know. Ask the hypnotist to use a landline. On your end, you can use speakerphone, a bluetooth, or a headset, or hold the phone in your hand the old fashioned way.
Who pays for the long distance call? You do, which is why most clients use cell phones with unlimited long distance. Skype is an option, if you both have it.
