Irene Hickman’s Mind Probe Hypnosis

This book is about the various conniptions regarding hypnosis. Hypnosis, the manipulation of the human mind by another entity is slowly going mainstream, arriver the people and making good use of it. It has been long ignored and now it becomes useful to professionals in treating various disorders of people. This book clearly show the different kinds of scenarios that you produce when you explore a persons mid. It also shows how to go deep into the mind in order to discover things or experiences from the past that could be clogging a person to live a normal life. Thus, it serves and benefits people by easing their mind, body and emotions.The author covers issues birth and death, problems of allergies, the use of fantasy and fact, and even treating excite problems. These issues were tackled on how the mind deals with tem, on how the subconscious mind is competent to suppress these thoughts, if ever they gave the person a bad experience. This book is different from other books of t he analogous type is that it doesnt merely talk about how one should go back to the past and revisit his life before, but instead, to go back and be able to hit the sack the origin of a certain problem he is currently facing in the present time. The cases found in this book are all genuinely useful and informative, wherein it describes their experiences with their subconscious, thus a very good guide for professionals and those who practice hypnosis.The author covers a wide scope in the aspect of hypnosis. It deals on how peoples fear could have its roots in the previous events in his life, wherein he suffered a great deal of pain or hardship which led to what he is experiencing now. Hypnosis touches on how to deal with ones fears and problems primarily from recognizing them, and acknowledging its existence.I think the most effective method of the author is the allergic reaction-suppression dialog, wherein a person who has an allergy can be hypnotized to reminisce his past life to discover the cause of the allergy. If the cause is found, the person hypnotized will be asked to go through it over and over again until he is not feeling and discomfort or fear towards the situation they had that led to the allergy. This is a very effective way in treating patients who suffer from bodily reactions without knowing the realistic cause. Even if they seek medical help, the medical professionals are unable to find the real cause of the allergies. This is when hypnosis is used as a means of treatment.An example of a case where a hypnosis session was used to cure an allergy problem is with a certain Marge Tellez, who suffered an abnormal response to cold urine for a long time already. Any exposure to cold water was exchanged with a rather violent reaction from her body. When she drinks cold water, the inside of her mouth would swell, and when cold water touches her, her skin would become swollen and cracked, and was really very hard and pestiferous for her. Doctors from various medical institutions were unable to cure her, and were considered a rare case.They tried to suppress her condition by giving her a daily injection of a drug, which seem to have worked a little bit. When she resorted to hypnosis, it was found out that in her past life, she had some various bad experiences with cold water. This includes a few batch that she was drowned or was nearly drowned. Another situation is that she was a galleon slave and fought their captain, and the most traumatic for her was a ship wreck which claimed the life of two of her kids. With those situations in hand, the hypnotiser asked her again and again to describe and talk about the situations and asks her what she feels, until they reach the point that she wasnt uncomfortable with it and that she doesnt feel any fear of the cold water anymore (Hickman, 2002).Another case was with a certain R.S. He complained of a severe reaction of his body to cold weather. If though he wears thick layers of d ress and jackets, he would feel uneasy and uncomfortable. It was found out, using the same method of hypnosis, that in his past life, he has been lost in a blizzard in the early years of Texas and he froze to death. Another situation that sparked his fear of the cold weather is when he died from the cold during the time of the Romans and their conquests. His past life experiences were handled by the same process, through hypnosis and recognition and confrontation of the problem itself. Through confrontation, the problem was well taken care of and he eventually lost his allergy to the cold weather.It would be a very wonderful experience if you would be able to try all the possible means in acquiring a positive result, since you would know first hand which would be really be useful for you. I think the application of these methods will depend on the situation of the patient. There are some patients who have no reaction on a certain method, and if you would use another one, you would be able to obtain a result. I would favor the process of going back to your past self in order to cure an allergy. Because of that, it enables the patient to be free of the restrictions which are brought about by the allergy he is having. If you eliminate the root, you are enabling yourself to be able to enjoy and live your life to the fullest without worrying about any allergies. It would depend on how you go on a certain problem.I wouldnt want to avoid any of the techniques because they could have potential use to them in the near future. It will be able to teach us what we need to know and how we could go about on things. As a hypnotherapys practitioner, it should be known that hypnosis is very useful in relieving a persons stress. It is a key point to have an idea as to what could be the cause of a persons allergy. I would personally recommend the use of the process wherein you could be able to eliminate an allergy of some sort.SummaryThe book was able to convey a circularize important aspects regarding hypnosis and being able to probe a persons mind. It is very important so that you could be relieved of a stress or overcome a certain fear of something. Through this, man is capable of living freely, without the hindrance of theses problems, wherein man is the one that creates these problems. ReferencesHickman, I. (2002).
