What Actually Happens During a Hypnosis Session?

If you’ve ever wondered what a hypnosis session really looks like, you’re not alone.

Movies make it look mysterious.But in real life, it’s structured, calm, and client-led.

Here’s what actually happens:

1. Intake: Understanding Your Goals

We start by talking.

• What do you want to shift or let go of?

• What do you want more of?

• Where are you feeling stuck?

This part is just as important as the hypnosis itself.

2. Pre-talk: How Hypnosis Works

Before we begin, I explain how hypnosis really works.

• You stay in control the entire time.

• It’s a heightened state of focus, not sleep.

• You can speak, move, and remember everything.

We also clear up any fears or questions.

3. Induction: Entering the Hypnotic State

I guide you into deep relaxation using simple instructions.

You might feel:

• Heavy or light

• Warm or tingly

• Calm and still

Your body relaxes, and your mind focuses.

4. Deepening: Going Deeper

Once you’re relaxed, I take you even deeper.

This strengthens your focus and makes the work more effective.

5. The Work: Suggestions, Reframing, or Regression

Now we get to the core.

Depending on your goal, we might:

• Use direct suggestions to support change

• Reframe old beliefs that no longer serve you

• Visit a past memory and bring in new understanding

• Connect with your higher self for insight

Everything is done with your full awareness.

6. Emerging: Coming Back Fully Present

You’re gently brought back to full waking awareness.

Clients often say:

• “I feel lighter.”

• “I didn’t know that was still in me.”

• “That was powerful.”

7. Integration: Next Steps

We talk briefly about what came up and how to support the shifts going forward.

You may get:

• A self-hypnosis tool

• A journaling prompt

• Or an audio to reinforce the work
