Hypnosis For Stress Relief

I can thank Facebook for my introduction into self hypnosis. I saw that a friend of a friend on Facebook had links to her business on her profile. So I looked at the web site and saw that she had a clinic in Sacramento that specialized in Hypnosis. I sent her an e-mail asking her if she had any advice for me, not knowing that she was coming to San Diego this weekend looking into starting a clinic here. So I called her and set up an appointment this afternoon for an initial consultation to see if I was a good candidate, and as it turns out, I am! So I decided to to sign up for 12 sessions, which included three CD that I need to listen to daily (not all three, just the stress one first). We had our first session today where she started off my hypnotising me and then started the CD where I listened to a man talk for what turned out to be 24 minutes, but seemed like just 10. Then she, Andria Michele Wood, came back in and finished the session, bringing me out of my state of relaxation. At no time during the process was I ever unaware of what was going on around me, and there were times when I thought it wasn't working. When she told me to become 10,000 times more relaxed, I thought "That is impossible!". However, I did get very relaxed, and even now, hours later, I still feel good. It also turns out that I have already been practicing self-hypnosis during my yoga and meditation sessions where they have you concentrate on breathing, and then relaxing every muscle from the toes to the head. If this works, then you should see a whole new me in the next few months!
