Press Release Body = Hypnotism Proves Helpful For Many Health Problems
What if someone told you that you can lose weight, stop smoking, eliminate anxieties, and maintain a better quality of life? It's not done with a new "wonder pill." Actually, these positive results can be accomplished with the use of hypnotism, according to Dr. Dwight F. Damon, president of the National Guild of Hypnotists, the oldest organization of its kind in the field of hypnosis and hypnotherapy. The relationship between the mind and the body has come to the forefront of health news reporting in recent years. Since authorities say that all hypnosis is self-hypnosis we all have the opportunity to benefit according to our personal involvement in developing this innate ability. Self-hypnosis is best learned by being hypnotized and then trained to duplicate the state on your own. NGH certified hypnotists are trained to help their clients to develop individual mind and body resources for vocational and avocational improvement, such as dealing with the small but important personal changes we all encounter in everyday living. Medical or psychoneurological health problems, which hypnosis can help, are routinely handled by hypnotherapists through referral by licensed physicians and other health practitioners. A number of months ago, the prime time TV show, "Dateline" conducted a series of weight loss programs in which leading diet regimens, including hypnotism, were used, with the hypnotic participant faring well in results under the guidance of NGH certified hypnotist Thomas Nicoli. Has the day finally arrived for hypnosis in the emergency room, the birthing rooms and the oncology wing of a hospital? It is already a reality. Although it's not in every hospital, it is used often enough to verify its usefulness, according to the NGH. Actually, the practice of hypnotism has been officially sanctioned by the American Medical association since 1958. The NGH was founded in 1951 by a small group of Boston hypnotists and hypnotherapists with a mutual interest in hypnotism. In the ensuing years, the organization has become incorporated as a not-for-profit educational association and has almost 8,000 members in 56 countries. Hypnotism training based on the group's core-curriculum is being taught across the United States and in numerous other countries. Continuing-education workshops, an annual educational conference and professional publications help members attain required continuing-education credits, while keeping them informed as to advancements in the field. With the goal of informing the general public about hypnotism, NGH maintains a Web site at www.nghinfo.com.
