Psychiatric diagnoses: Why no one is satisfied

Psychiatric diagnoses: Why no one is satisfied

Change and hypnosis go hand in hand.  Through relaxation, with the help of a hypnotist-facilitator or autogenically (self-directed) induced, you can focus on a specific issue or situation in an altered way that rearranges the order of internal percepts and thereby reshapes your internal reality.  When someone asks, "How many sessions does it take me to stop smoking?"  I tell them there are some key factors that one needs to consider when considering such a question:  individual differences that include level of motivation, level of suggestibility, and other resources that they might take advantage of--medications, Nicotine Anonymous, family support, etc. .
