Frequently Asked Questions Diamond Transformation Frequently Asked Questions Diamond Transformation What is self- hypnosis? Self- hypnosis combines deep relaxation, trance and suggestions in order to permanently transform your conscious and subconscious thoughts, feelings and behaviours. In self- hypnosis the hypnotist is your 'Higher Self', the part within you, that makes life choices from a perspective of deep knowledge, love and empowerment. Any suggestions provided in the training are only given to empower you to learn to do the whole process by yourself. How does our self- hypnosis training work? When listening to our self-hypnosis recording you will be gently guided into a state of deep relaxation. This is achieved, with your co-operation and permission, by a technique called progressive relaxation, which involves following simple verbal instructions and responding positively to the suggestions you hear. Once you are deeply relaxed into the Esdaile state you will be able to work with self- chosen suggestions (affirmations) or creative visualisation, which will profoundly and permanently alter your thoughts, feelings and behaviours around the chosen topic. Alternatively, you can ask your ‘Higher Self’, the powerful, loving and wise part of yourself, to assists you improving your health and wellbeing, and to develop and achieve your chosen goals. As a result of conditioning, you will be able to access this highly creative and healing inner state of deep relaxation and trance without a recording, Just by using two distinct words to trigger this state, whenever you wish. You will be then able to utilise this technique of profound transformation whenever and wherever you wish, completely without assistance. In addition, you will benefit from the health promoting and health protecting effects of deep relaxation. What makes our self- hypnosis training different? The strong focus on autonomy that allows you those this technique of self- exploration and powerful transformation of self and life Just by yourself, without external influences and in the complete privacy of your own mind. The suggestions that are used in this recording train you to achieve very deep relaxation and to access your ‘Higher Self’, which means, that you become your own wise, loving and powerful guide, coach and therapist in this process. How safe is self-hypnosis? Should I be worried? Self- hypnosis is being practiced by millions of people worldwide and is known to be entirely safe. If you are traumatised, or of you suffer with certain mental health problems, such as mania, depression, psychosis or post-traumatic stress disorder, we advise, not practice self- hypnosis without the guidance of a qualified mental health professional. What results can you expect from practicing self- hypnosis? You will learn to profoundly relax, which is already very beneficial for your health. You learn to access your ‘Higher Self’ as a source of wisdom, love and power and bring these qualities into your daily life, whenever you require them. You align your conscious, subconscious and superconscious mind to bring about self- designed permanent change in your thoughts, emotions and feelings and in your behaviour. Your health and wellbeing may improve as result of reducing stress, anxiety, low mood and anger and replacing them, where appropriate, with positive feelings and realistic optimism. Relaxation help you to recover from strain and increase your energy and vitality. © Dr Peter Gruenewald 2019 Frequently Asked Questions Diamond Transformation Are there health benefits from deep relaxation? On a physiological level deep relaxation leads to a reduction of sympathetic nervous system activity (tension, fight and flight response) and an increase of parasympathetic (rest, digest and recovery). This may show the following benefits: Slowing of heart rate, normalising blood pressure, slowing of breathing rate, improving of digestion, maintaining normal blood sugar levels, reducing activity of stress hormones, increasing blood flow to maJor muscles, reducing muscle tension and chronic pain, improving concentration and mood, improving sleep quality, improved recovery, lowering fatigue, reducing tension, anxiety, anger and frustration, and boosting confidence to handle problems. When will I notice results of self- hypnosis? You may notice some improvement in your physical and emotional wellbeing from day 1. The pace with which you will see improvement in daily life will vary but will depend less on the how fast you achieve deep relaxation and trance, but more on how willing you are to embrace change in your life, and how regular you practice. Over 4 weeks of practice with the recording most people will achieve a very deep relaxation and trance; some improvements in wellbeing; a decent level of suggestibility for suggestions (affirmations) to take effect; improved inner guidance and ability to change behaviour, emotional response and thoughts at will and the capacity to access deep sates of relaxation on demand within a few seconds. This will alow you to access deep relaxation and trance immediately anywhere and anytime, for a period of 15 minutes at a time; Just by yourself and without the need for the recording. What about the Parabola? Inspired stories have a profound effect on our conscious, subconscious and superconscious mind. They are educational, but there imagery also side-passes our critical faculties and helps to profoundly impact on our believes about ourselves, and our cognitive, emotional and behavioural responses. That’s why fairy-tales and social stories play such an important role in our education as children. Even as adults the imagery of good stories impact profoundly on us. That’s why theatre performances, such as the dramas in the Golden Age of the Greek classic and Shakespeare dramas have had such a profound impact on people’s life, if the viewer whished so. This process initiates, was called the catharsis (purification) of the soul, a process that combines reliving of similar past experiences, deeper self- knowledge and inner change. The Parabola is an inspired Rosicrucian alchemistic tale from the seventeenth century, and it originates from a similar source of inspiration as Shakespeare’s dramas and the Grimm fairy-tales. The dramatic illustration of the Royal Wedding is a tale of the balance union of opposites, such as the male and female nature within us, young and old, intellect and action. In the process of embracing and balancing the opposites we learn to marry our ‘Higher Self’ with our human soul. Emotions, such as anxiety, fear, anger, and sadness are lifted up into our consciousness and transformed into higher feelings, such as enthusiasm, love, and compassion. ‘Inner death’ is transformed into resurrection, coldness in warmed, heat is cooled, darkness is enlightened. As a result of this slow process, we increasingly manifest wisdom, love and empowerment of our ‘Higher Self’ into our daily life experience. What can I gain from regularly listening to the Parabola? In many ways the effect of listening to the Parabola in a state of deep relaxation facilitated by the music and brainwave entrainment technology is quite similar than the Esdaile self-hypnosis, but achieved by very different means. Listening to the Parabola 1x daily may help to improve your physical, emotional and social health and help you to gain more clarity of your life’s goals and your ability to manifest those in your personal and professional life. © Dr Peter Gruenewald 2019 Frequently Asked Questions Diamond Transformation Is it better to use a hypnotherapist than practicing self- hypnosis? There are clear advantages and disadvantages. When dealing with complex problems or with mental health problems, the input from a therapist may very well be required. Where this is not the case, the advantage is, that you learn to apply a powerful tool of transformation by yourself, without having to share your concerns with another person nor giving another person too much influence over yourself. Diamond Transformation is a training that teaches you how to practice effective self- hypnosis without the help of a therapist orang further hypnosis recordings. You will learn to simply induce safely a deep state of relaxation, trance and suggestibility, which be entirely under your control. In this state you can effectively use self- chosen suggestions, creative visualisations or mental rehearsing. Alternatively, if you focus on your problem immediately before you go into trance then the deep Esdaile state off self- hypnosis will allow your Higher Self, the part within you, that makes life choices from a perspective of deep knowledge, love and empowerment, to work out the problem without external input. As a result, you will develop new insight, feelings and intentions and bring behaviour change about without much effort. Does self- hypnosis work for everyone? Everyone who has the capacity to be openminded, can focus, and use imagination can learn to practice self- hypnosis. Self- hypnosis is a natural state of mind, which everybody experiences, when daydreaming, during dreaming, when persuade ourselves in a self- conversation, or when falling asleep or waking up. During these transition states, conscious, subconscious and superconscious mind work closely together. Through self- hypnosis these creative states are deepened, intensified and made available for the guidance of your 'Higher Self', the part within you, that makes life choices from a perspective of deep knowledge, love and empowerment. Is self-hypnosis suitable for everyone? Should you suffer with serious mental health problems then you should not attempt to learn or practice self- hypnosis without the guidance of a qualified mental health professional or therapist. Who should not practice self- hypnosis? Please do not practice self- hypnosis while under the influence of mind-altering drugs. Please do not practice self- hypnosis without advice and guidance of a qualified therapist or mental health practitioner, if you suffer with a mental health problem. Please do not listen to the recording, whist driving or operating machines. Is it safe to use self- hypnosis training during pregnancy? It is safe to practice self- hypnosis during pregnancy.

As far back as 5000 years ago, in ancient Egypt, people seeking to be cured of their physical and psychological illnesses would attend temples in the hope of experiencing a cure. This practice spread to Roman and Greek civilisations who built sleep temples, which people attended, hoping that they would dream what needed to be done to help relieve their suffering. An important part of all of these processes was linking the experience of trance or dream states to a religious or spiritual underpinning. Believing that the answer came from a divine source lent weight to the process. Cures often included the use of incense, prayers and rituals where incantations containing suggestions for the desired outcome were given. It also helped that in many cases, part of the treatment included practical elements to encourage recovery and wellbeing such as regular bathing and special diets. What these early spiritual healers realised was that if healing was to occur, then both parties needed to work together.

  • Five Signs of Hypnosis
    FIVE SIGNS OF HYPNOSIS (by Dr Warwick Phipps, PhD, BCH, CI) One of the quintessential questions in the field of hypnotherapy is “How do you know when a client is hypnotised or has entered the trance state?” 1 At first glance, the answer to this question may seem rather obvious: “Just ask the client!” The difficulty, though, is that the client’s subjective experience of hypnosis is not necessarily consistent with the behaviour he or she displays. This is especially the case, for example, when a client, who has a particularly narrow or limited perception of hypnosis, actually experiences the phenomenon without recognising or identifying it as such. In this instance, although the client entered the trance state, he or she has no knowledge of this and, as a result, has doubts about the nature and validity of his or her said hypnotic experience. The secret to answering this question, however, lies in the therapist’s observational skills. By careful and selective—trained—observation of the client’s behaviour, it is possible for the therapist to determine whether or not the client has entered the trance state. The difficulty, though, is in identifying what behaviour the therapist should selectively attend to. Books and literature are abounding on this subject, but not always helpful. For example, it has been suggested that “head dropping,” “shoulder slumping,” “physical relaxation,” “immobility— catalepsy,” “sighing,” “swallowing,” or even “lack of swallowing,” for that matter, are all indications of hypnosis. The limitation of these so called signs of hypnosis is that they can be imitated or modelled.

  • Introduction to Hypnosis
    IINNTTRRODODUUCCTTIONION TTOO HHYYPPNNOSOSISIS Michael Raugh, C.Ht. What is Hypnosis? The American Heritage Dictionary “An artificially induced altered state of consciousness, characterized by heightened suggestibility and receptivity to direction.” American Society of Clinical Hypnosis “Hypnosis is a state of inner absorption, concentration and focused attention.” American Psychotherapy and Medical Hypnosis Association “Hypnosis is a process during which an individual, usually with the aid of another, allows himself/herself to become more suggestible.” American Psychological Association, Division 30 “Hypnosis typically involves an introduction to the procedure during which the subject is told that suggestions for imaginative experiences will be presented. The hypnotic induction is an extended initial suggestion for using one's imagination, and may contain further elaborations of the introduction. A hypnotic procedure is used to encourage and evaluate responses to suggestions. When using hypnosis, one person (the subject) is guided by another (the hypnotist) to respond to suggestions for changes in subjective experience, alterations in perception, sensation, emotion, thought or behavior. Persons can also learn self-hypnosis, which is the act of administering hypnotic procedures on one's own. If the subject responds to hypnotic suggestions, it is generally inferred that hypnosis has been induced. Many believe that hypnotic responses and experiences are characteristic of a hypnotic state. While some think that it is not necessary to use the word 'hypnosis' as part of the hypnotic induction, others view it as essential. “Details of hypnotic procedures and suggestions will differ depending on the goals of the practitioner and the purposes of the clinical or research endeavor. Procedures traditionally involve suggestions to relax, though relaxation is not necessary for hypnosis and a wide variety of suggestions can be used including those to become more alert.

  • Mesmer on Animal Magnetism
    History of Psychology: Mesmer on Animal Magnetism http://web.archive.org/web/20040710162753/http://www.unbf.ca/psycho... Propositions Concerning Animal Magnetism, by Anton Mesmer, 1779 [ 1] [Sir Thomas Browne complained in the middle of the 17th century that "Quacksalvers and charlatans deceive the people." [ 2] Quacks are still among us, but sometime in the 18th century they changed their sales pitch. Anton Mesmer was among the most famous to offer a cure that sounded like new physical science but which leading scientists investigated and rejected. When Mesmer finally closed his elegant clinic in Paris, he was able to afford a small but comfortable estate in the country, to which he quietly retired. Potential buyers, and sellers, too, of any sort of new therapy might wish to know how he recruited so many paying clients. - dgl ] 1. A responsive influence exists between the heavenly bodies, the earth, and animated bodies. 2. A fluid universally diffused, so continuous as not to admit of a vacuum, incomparably subtle, and naturally susceptible of receiving, propagating, and communicating all motor disturbances, is the means of this influence. 3. This reciprocal action is subject to mechanical laws, with which we are not as yet acquainted. 4. Alternative effects result from this action, which may be considered to be a flux and reflux. 5. This reflux is more or less general, more or less special, more or less compound, according to the nature of the causes which determine it. 6. It is by this action, the most universal which occurs in nature, that the exercise of active relations takes place between the heavenly bodies, the earth, and its constituent parts.
