Hypnosis Cairns
‘Hypnosis’ - What is it and is it dangerous? Will I lose control of what I do, or what I say? Will I stay stuck in hypnosis? These questions and some others reflect common misconceptions around the practice of hypnosis. Most people gain their understanding of hypnosis from what they have seen on stage shows, and quite naturally are suspicious and fearful that they will be made to do something silly, or reveal something that they don’t want to. These ‘fears’ are groundless and are addressed in the first consultation with the hypnotherapist prior to any hypnosis being done.
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)
CBT is a very popular therapy which essentially helps the client learn to refute negative and destructive cognitive distortions, which are impacting badly on his or her life. This then enables the creation of new neurological pathways which house or support the reframe of said previous self-limiting and destructive beliefs (self talk). Cognitive-behavioural therapies teach that when our brains are healthy, it is our thinking that causes us to feel and act the way we do.
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is a unique form of what is commonly called ‘psychological acupuncture’ (acupuncture without the use of needles!). It has its roots in ancient Chinese medicine and the modern day system of Applied Kinesiology. It uses the Chinese meridian system (acupuncture points) to relieve psychological stress and physiological pain.
