Hypnosis is an altered state of consciousness involving changes in perception and attention. We naturally access similar states daily, like when we are absorbed in a creative activity, a campfire, or a movie.

Under hypnosis, the rational mind steps back slightly, allowing the unconscious mind to emerge. These two parts then communicate more fluidly, making it easy to access oneself as well as one’s inner resources.

The unconscious is the part of our mind where everything we've experienced since birth is stored. It influences most of our reactions, patterns, emotions, and ways of perceiving the world.

Sometimes these unconscious reflexes can make us feel powerless or blocked. We feel stuck in patterns that we didn't choose.

By communicating more directly with the unconscious through the hypnotic state, it is possible to create new feelings, beliefs, and experiences that are more aligned with the life we want to live.

During hypnosis, you remain aware of what is happening. You can think, perceive and speak. You can choose what to tell me and what to keep to yourself and can refuse any exercise you don’t wish to do. You may feel certain sensations, which vary from person to person. These include a state of well-being, muscular relaxation, changes in the notion of time, more access to your imagination, emerging emotions, changes in your breath, easier access to solutions and spontaneity, and more.
