When you are stuck on a problem, it can be very frustrating. You feel anxious as you worry about what to do. Your mind races as you wonder if you will ever feel creative again. Unfortunately, your anxiety can keep you from doing your best.
Hypnosis helps by lowering anxiety. In hypnosis, you are brought to a state of total relaxation. In this state, you can work with the subconscious mind. You can get rid of self-criticism and negative habits. If you are worried about being perfect, hypnosis can remove your perfectionism. Basically, you can remove any problem that holds you back from being your most creative.
How It Works
This technique is actually quite similar to the creative process. When you are in writing mode, you can go for hours without looking at a clock. When you finally look up, you realize that it is almost time for dinner. You never noticed that the hours were passing by because you were in a trance-like state. In this state, you were focused and extremely
aware. The same kind of state is used in hypnosis. You have to achieve this relaxed, trance-like state before your mind can relax. When your mind relaxes, images and ideas can start to flow. You already have these creative ideas locked away in your mind. The only problem was getting the focus and relaxation you needed to release the ideas. Hypnosis is a powerful tool that can help you to perform your best. It helps to remove the limiting beliefs that hold you back. At the same time, it reduces the anxiety and stress that hurt your creativity. Once you are in the right state of mind, your creativity can finally be unleashed.
This is how you train your unconscienced to kick in creatively.” (Lamott 96) This is overall good advice for most. Some or all of us get distracted by many things chores, life, kids, work, cat that won’t stop meowing even a simple list that Lammot states is “Nurse Ratchet like listing of things that must be done right this moment” (96). The author says that we need to ignore all distractions no matter how much our brain may scream at us to get the other work done or something bad will happen we must persevere to finish or at least start the paper. Or else it will never get done and you will be putting together a Frankenstein like paper at two in the morning.
there is no way I could write what I had thought because I tend to forget after a few second. I am able to write down certain words I could remember but I cannot expand on them quick enough for me to actually start a few sentences. Reading while taking side notes is one of the best way I have found that has help me in building words together to form sentences even if my thought sometimes gets clustered with so many ideas. When I do have more material for my papers I must stop what I am doing and quickly write them down before I forget, later I could go back to what I wrote and expand to make them into sentences and even paragraphs. There are also times where I could write down couple of things and just expand on them for a while but then it begins to fade and I must go back to the last few things I had writing to get inspired
In hypnosis, you can understand your memories. Sometimes, unhealthy relationships are a pattern. You may have self-esteem issues from childhood that make you choose the wrong person. You deserve better, but your past holds you back. During hypnosis, you can identify where these unhealthy patterns started.
Although Science and Pseudoscience are evidently two completely different topics, what is considered to be classified as a Science or Pseudoscience is a controversy topic that’s still being debated today. While science builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the world through the scientific method, pseudoscience is a claim, belief or practice which is presented as science, but lacks support of evidence and cannot be reliably tested. Hypnosis is one topic several psychologists and those in the field of science are seemingly still debating today, in result to its several different uses. Although hypnosis is shown to work when dealing with certain phenomena’s like stress, there are several uses it is considered to be very ineffective and simply not a science.
For centuries hypnosis has been around, however many people till this day do not know much about it. Most still believe hypnotist carry around big clocks using them to swing back and forth in someone’s face, controlling their every action. As the one being hypnotized remains unaware as they proceed to act like a chicken with their head cut off. But for the most part, the truth is most hypnotists can be your average doctor, therapist, dentist, psychiatrists, and friend. It doesn’t take much to hypnosis someone as long as a deep state of relaxation is created, where the unconscious mind is “listening” and the conscious mind is “resting”. The meaning of “conscious and unconscious are really just shorthand terms to describe the general characteristics of the human mind. The “conscious mind” is the bit where we tend to “live” – the bit you might think as “you”. If there’s a little voice reading these words out loud in your head, that’s the conscious mind talking. The unconscious mind is everything else” ("About hypnosis"). In fact some doctors don’t use the word trance when describing the relaxed state because the person is very aware in their so-called unconscious mind. They feel that the word trance implies a different mind level or mental lapse and sends out the wrong idea to people who don’t know the subject.
As a student of Creative Media Practice, I have come to appreciate the concept of practice as research, people set about research for a diversity of reasons, but the major goals for academics is to address a problem, find things out or establish new heights. According to Robin Nelson in his book, Practice as Research in the Arts: “The term ‘Arts Practice as Research’ would probably not have been coined had artists not gotten involved with modern higher education systems in respect to programmes of learning” (2013: 3). Creative writing has been a source of exploration for me but during this project, I struggled with what constituted as knowledge in creative writing research. Nelson also writes: “Artists engaging in inquiry
Danielle wakes up in the morning and doesn’t want to get out of bed. She is wide awake but didn’t get much sleep; and has no motivation to start her day. Reluctantly she gets up, showers, and gets ready for work. She skips breakfast as she has no appetite and heads into work. On the way to her job she has trouble concentrating on her driving; instead she contemplates how useless she feels at work and how helpless she is to change the situation. Once at work she can’t remember what meetings she needed to attend, and forgets about an important appointment with the general manager. To most, this sounds like a bad day. But to her this is just the norm of her everyday life. Danielle is displaying many of the symptoms associated with clinical depression. She is diagnosed with the mental illness and prescribed pharmaceuticals, but when she does remember to take her medicine it seems to cause more problems than it fixes with the multitude of side effects. She wants a different solution or approach to manage her problem. Here is where hypnosis may come into play as a viable option.
Many people are hypnotized for entertainment purposes, so maybe it should also be used to help people with problems that are hard to resolve. Hypnosis can be used to relieve pain, conquer almost any fear, eliminate the use unnecessary prescription medicines, and help a person to overcome alcoholism and to overcome drug addictions. Also, upon finding support from a hypnotherapist, many have been able to quit addictive habits such as smoking.
The concept of hypnosis produces an enigmatic figure rhythmical swaying a pocket watch to control a subject. Ominous hypnotists and surreal perceptions of hypnotism are fanciful ideas constructed by television, movies, and comics. Hypnotism has become widely popular in mainstream culture because of absurd renditions that bear no resemblance to actual hypnotism; in consequence the therapeutic effects of hypnotism are questioned by a great deal of psychologists and doctors. Hypnotherapy, hypnosis as a medical intervention, should be an acceptable and extensively used treatment of subjective symptoms because it is proven to be effective and does not encompass severe side effects.
I am sitting in my bed, thinking about my process of writing as I am trying to go through it. It seems the more I think about it, the less I understand it. When I am writing, I don’t think. Which I know, sounds bad. But, I spend every single moment of every single day over thinking, over analyzing, and over assuming every aspect of my life. When I’m writing, I’m free from that for just a little bit. Until of course, my hands stop typing or the pencil (no pens- never pens) stops moving, then I’m right back on the carousel that is my brain. Heidi Estrem says, “...writers use writing to generate knowledge that they didn’t have before.” (Writing is a Knowledge-Making Activity 18). I believe my ability to write without an exact destination
The main reason why I have so much trouble when writing, is because I don't concentrate
The fruit of the Spirit is self-control. As we follow the Spirit’s lead, He will give us the power to better control our own selves. Hypnosis involves the transfer of control away from ourselves to another person. Hypnosis leads to an altered state of consciousness in which the mind is very susceptible to outside suggestion. That susceptibility is what the hypnotist needs in order to modify the behavior of his subject. However, the word susceptible should concern us. Scripture says to be watchful and “self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour” (1 Peter 5:8). The hypnotist is not the only one who wants to modify our behavior; Satan also wants to do some modifying, and we should be wary of giving him any opportunity to make his
Hypnosis is a method to deeply relax an individual, inducing a dream-like state in order to treat a specific psychological, emotional or medical disorder. Practised in a few different variants over thousands of years, hypnotherapy was not considered to be a valid medical treatment until recently. But it's mysterious healing powers are still a bit controversial, as society considers hypnosis to be a kind of a parlour trick that serves mostly for fun and entertainment of the crowd.
Article: Why would you choose hypnotherapy? Sometimes even someone with strong willpower just can’t seem to quit a negative habit, release pain or conquer a phobia.

In the end you’ll feel more relaxed, calm happy and empowered.
The first thing I do when reaching my unthinkable mind before a peice is to write down the first thing that comes to mind in reference to the prompt. The purpose of this for me is to find direction in where I want to take a piece or assignment. By doing this, I establish a connection between my unthinkable mind and the task at hand. If I become stressed or hit writer 's block and need to to flow back into my unthinkable mind, I repeat the same process step by step. Living with anxiety is something I have learned to deal with, and surprisingly enough, it has helped me learn to reach my unthinkable
