This week, I would like to cover a subject about which I receive so many questions: what is the role of hypnosis in becoming successful? Before I even start to explain how hypnosis works in relation to success, I would like to talk about something else: The reason why people most often avoid doing the things that will bring them closer to what they want to achieve, that would magnetize their goals and tend to instead do things that usually pull them away from it and its manifestation.
You know consciously what you want and that what you want would make you more happy and fulfilled, but it is easier and takes less energy for you to just avoid taking the necessary steps to get there where you want to be and in a way you try to do your best at creating a strong resistance to allow what you want into your life, and most often find yourself doing unnecessary things which either delay your goal realization or simply pull it further away from you. It is not self sabotage, but soothing more subtle and at way deeper level than that. There is fear involved, sometime it is not clear what you are afraid of, and the reason why you are really afraid of the very beautiful and good things you want....you want them but it does not feel safe in a way to actually have them, or that they may be too good for you, it is OK for other people too have it, but not for you, that the good thing you want, may be out of your reach! But why do you think that having what your really want may be too good for you? Why do you feel, at a deeper mental level, as if you were almost not worthy of having it? And why are you afraid of it, why are you afraid of success, or of more money, or being more fit and feeling really good about yourself? And who taught you to be afraid of it, and that you should not desire these things and that you should not feel good about yourself, that you instead should deprive yourself? You were certainly not born that way, you were born with no data or information in you whatsoever and your mind was empty, and the conscious mind had not yet developed..soon after you were born. So what happened and how come you feel and act this way? I will cover this subject in my next post, in the mean time if you have any comment or feedback to share you can post it below.

This is an interesting post. I have been interested in the power of the mind, the subconscious and the conscious, for some time now and been studying/reading a lot about the subject.

Andy thank you for your comment, it is very helpful to others. Yes the reason why we do act that way is based on subconscious fears that go all the way to childhood, related wither to some real traumatic experiences or any event that may have created emotional pain, such as rejection or abandonment or to misinterpretations and misconceptions created at a very young age, when the conscious mind had not developed properly yet, or to ideas taken on from the caregivers, who would repeatedly remind the child about some negative misconceptions, until they became a subconscious belief. Very good! I agree with you that Dr. Lipton does a great job in explaining how the subconscious mind works!

I enjoyed reading about this post and all of your comments, I myself actually have a similar problem, I have this goal or I would call it a dream? to start my own music production company, I am a very good musician and my dream has been for some years now to start my own company, however each time I seem to get closer and closer tot he realization of this goal, I seem to attract some negative circumstance that blocks me to mover forward toward the completion, it is like almost a sabotage and it takes me a step backward, I am ind of scared of the idea maybe of really living my dream or maybe of failure. Could you Annalena or anyone here, suggest what is that is actually happening here, and would some hypnosis work, help me to understand, and can a hypnosis session be done over the phone?

Carlos, sorry for the delay, and thank you very much for your comment and for asking such a good question. What is going on is simply that you conscious desire and your subconscious desire are not aligned, they are broadcasting two different messages. Consciously you want to complete this goal, but your subconscious mind, wants to keep you safe and protect you because is afraid of changes, and it sends your body into a state of fight or flight, each time you get closer to the completion, creating small self sabotaging events. It is not because you are failing. And the fear underneath this may be either fear of success (which may bring stress and lack of time) or it may be a fear of failure. yes hypnosis can help, because it heals subconscious negative beliefs that conflict with conscious desires. And yes, hypnosis can be done over the phone as far as you have headphones and can sit in a comfortable chair where nobody will disturb you,, I hope this helps!

I was reading your blog and I kind of started to get a better understanding of how negative subconscious beliefs play a big role in every day life, and why self sabotage happen, however something that is not clear and it is getting me really confusing is this; I understand that it may be fear of failure or fear that our talents may get rejected and of experiencing rejection, but I have hard time understanding why the fear of success? how is that possible and how it is that this works on a subconscious level? Can you please provide more details and elaborate this concept? Thank you!

Very good question Alex, thank you for posting it. Yes correct, self sabotages are triggered by an unconscious fear of being rejected or of experience failure or pain once our goal has been really realized. About the fear of success, I will focus more on this subject in my next blog post, so please come back in a week or so. However, in a nut shell, the fear of success may be there because of past experiences or because of what we have been told, such as that if we become successful people will be jealous of us or some other false belief, that we took on when we were very young and accepted as truth. Please follow up on next blog for more details,also visit www.hypnosis-portland.com/life-coaching.html for more info, Thank you

There are few blogs online which cover this subject in such a detailed and clear way as it is presented on this blog, I would like to thank you for it and all who have contributed to it with their comments. I would like to add mine: I have been trying to get my own holistic business (I am an acupuncturist) starting. I have tried for some time now, few years, and it seems that I am able to take all the logical necessary steps, even find good and inexpensive promotion and some clients. But then is like an ongoing up and down cycle,each time I seem to get closer to real success, rather than becoming more active and motivated, I kind of retreat, I become tired and lose enthusiasm and motivation and automatically go back to the starting sage, and the whole process stops, and nothing happens and everything is just idle, Then I regret, start getting motivated again and start to get to the success level I desire deep in my heart but then the same self sabotaging thing happens. I know deep inside that i have a fear, but I do not know or maybe i do not dare to look deeper to find out what kind of fear it is because I am not sure I could handle it? Any suggestion Annalina, Could you help me and what would you suggest I do, hypnosis or coaching or past life regression, I would be interested in anything you suggest

Lorna, I appreciate your comment, very good point. I know that the reason why you are able to almost reach your desired success in your business but then kind of lose enthusiasm and retreat, it is due to the fact that you must have a deep fear related to some negative experience from the past or some trauma in your childhood. And as you say, it may be anything, from an innocent misinterpretation form you were a very little child (if that left a painful imprint in your mind) or to a rejection or disappointment while in school, or a traumatic experience related to a temporary success you might have gone gone through but have repressed deep inside because too painful and so you cannot remember it. I would suggest hypnosis and EFT, so you will be able to find the root cause of it and then heal it so that that cellular memory cannot interfere anymore with your wish to follow through and complete your manifestation. If you have further questions let me know
