Depths of Hypnosis
I was talking to Mom this afternoon about how I seem to fall asleep when I do the hypnosis tape. She told me that there was a name for that stage, but I can't remember what she called it. It was either Depth 1 or Depth 3 (below). I think it sounds more like Depth 3 to me!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Depth 1 - Somnambulism - receiving suggestions and making positive behavioral changes, regression therapy, accessing suppressed memories;
Depth 2 - Esdaile State - excellent for pain management, full-body anesthesia, etc.;
Depth 3 - Sichort State - conscious mind completely gets out of the way, so subconscious is able to give information and make necessary changes without conscious interference, (often subject does not remember what takes place in this stage, may think they fell asleep).
A person in the Esdaile State experiences general anesthesia without suggestion. The catatonic state produces limb rigidity without surface muscle contraction, which eliminates muscle fatigue and muscle burn. This is unlike the cataleptic state which is achieved in light hypnosis, where the subject experiences rigidity of the muscles.A person in the Sichort State produces rapid-eye-movement, or REM as it is commonly called, and experiences extreme time distortion. REM is not to be mistaken with fluttering of the eyelids, which can be produced in the lighter states of hypnosis.
The person in the Sichort State can produce alpha, beta, delta or even theta brainwaves at the request of the operator while still producing REM. In the Sichort State, the person may not recall ever being at this ultra-profound state and recall cannot be triggered. This state enables the practitioner to truly engage in direct communication with the person's Subconscious Mind since the Conscious Mind is no longer aware or focused. This allows the person to experience far greater benefits from hypnosis. When the Conscious Mind is aware, it often blocks the Subconscious Mind from providing its special gifts because of fear and ignorance.
The Sichort State is very euphoric in nature and the body's healing process is enhanced from six to ten times its normal rate. The person will produce REM continuously while in this state and at the most profound point, the Conscious and Subconscious Mind's have completely reversed positions. It is the ideal state for power naps and self-healing. This state, once achieved, seems to open up the intuitive senses within a person and amplifies one's gifts and talents.
