Hypnosis Vs Subliminal CD Albums

Hypnosis works as it gains access to your subconscious mind, it bypasses your critical thinking function to overwrite and reprogram your negative behaviour. So if your conscious efforts have been failing, then hypnosis may be able to bypass your conscious mind and reprogram the unconscious thoughts that have been holding you back.

For example if you want to lose weight, but you have tried and failed so many times previously then you may have several limiting beliefs, even if they are subconscious; beliefs like "I will never be that slim / I could never achieve a six pack like that / My metabolism is too slow, I just don't lose weight that fast". Hypnosis works by reprogramming your mind to remove these beliefs and change them for empowering ones which will help you eat healthily, exercise, and lose weight more successfully for example.

Subliminal messaging can be compared to a "light" form of hypnosis. It works on the same principals of accessing the subconscious mind to change behavior and negative thought patterns that are holding you back. However there are several differences and pros and cons of each method:

• Hypnosis can be very powerful, just one session with a qualified professional may be all it takes to change your behaviour forever. Subliminal CDs should be played every day, at least for the first 1-2 weeks - the effects are more gradual
• Hypnosis can be expensive, especially for a highly trained hypnotist. Subliminal CDs are inexpensive and easy to obtain.
• Hypnosis requires that you go into a deep trance like state. Subliminal Cds can be used while relaxing, or doing everyday activities.
• Depending upon the hypnotist and your state of mind you may need some "training" or a few sessions to go into a deeper hypnosis and get the full benefit. Subliminal CDs do not send you into a trance and you will always receive the messages to your unconscious mind.

Many people use subliminal messages as a simple alternative to hypnosis, however there is no best method to use, it depends upon your beliefs, circumstances, the nature of the change you want to make, and your personal preferences. subliminal hypnosis CDs can even be a great compliment to any hypnosis session you have - they will enforce any changes you are making, and promote the behavior you want to adopt.
