Can hypnosis heal you? | Daniel Robaczewski | TEDxLondonBusinessSchool

In his entrancing talk, Daniel gives a glimpse into how hypnosis works and explores the power of the human mind.
The discovery that hypnosis is not magic, but a legitimate tool used in psychotherapy and personal development led Daniel Robaczewski to start performing with a group of enthusiasts on the streets of Warsaw at the age of 17. During the journey that followed, he became a certified hypnotist, participated in hundreds of hours of workshops, hypnotised over a thousand people and taught hundreds of his own students, including psychologists, psychiatrists and actors.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

Hypnosis stopped me from suicide I walked out from the first session and the ideation dropped from 💯 to around 60 .. that was the beginning of change .. subsequent sessions totally stopped the ideation ! I was so impressed that I’ve studied and become a hypnotherapist so I can help others

[@stephanierobinson9207]

I have watched 3 videos about hypnosis, and I feel empowered! I feel as though Ive had a breakthrough of sorts. I've been in a deep depression for what seems like a lifetime. I also am an addict, currently using, and faced with the realization that I am slowly killing myself. I use to escape the pain, to avoid facing reality, and to quiet the voices in my head. I’m overwhelmed, to think that all I have to do to get out of this rut, is to change those voices. I didn’t know, that I could use them to my advantage! In essence, I’m having my Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz moment. I’ve had the power all along, only I had no control over it. I’ve been living life for too long, debilitated by my emotions. I am overjoyed and in complete amazement in this very moment! 🌟I HAVE HOPE🌟

Lol I was aware of everything going on.....I was just incredibly open to doing all the suggested stuff. It was a blast, and afterwards I felt amazing......like the greatest and lightest feeling I've ever experienced.

[@wakinglions747]

As a current student of hypnosis, it isn't enough to earn the basic certification; I plan to be a scholar from all sides. The portion that resonated the most for me was the diagram drawn with conscious, subconscious, and unconscious, with the critical factor by-pass between the two latter portions, as well as stating, "the critical factor of the conscious mind" and including the term "willpower" in there as a preface. So many people argue that subconscious and unconscious are the same, but that isn't true at all. Thank you for reaffirming.

[@unitymaster803]

Took some time, physical effort, along with mind over matter, eventually I ditched my cane in AZ. I found a book a previous manager gave me when I was in management at DG in np FL. I never read it til I went through an experience that pushed me to do so in my house in FL. Edgar Cayce used it to verbally speak(he could only do so under hypnosis) which intrigued me in using it on myself for my spinal issues for pain relief & healing. I felt amazing after my 1st attempt. Takes some time to get every detail of the body to go weightless before you go under though...seems like forever. I am walking just fine today with just mild pain once & a while now. It is very beneficial for multiple things. It does work.

[@DavideBaroni]

I loved the humour and the style, and being a hypnotherapist myself, the things you said I mostly share. I tend to use hypnosis in a slightly different way though, and it TENDS to work. ;-) There's something I'd like to suggest... Given the current way of life, I found that BEFORE putting someone in a trance that could help his DEEP healing you have to AWAKEN that someone from the trance he uses to live in in his daily life ;-) .

[@lydieuhh]

How do? Shrooms?

[@DavideBaroni]

@@lydieuhh No. Just slowly make them realise they were in a trance by getting them be in slightly different trances and notice the one they were in was basically self-induced. :-) Not always required though. It depends on the goal and the therapeutic contract you make at the beginning. 'Shrooms could be an option in certain cases. There's a lot of research currently going on about that. But I don't think they're good to EVERYBODY. There are certain contraindications, which are related to the structures of personality and self. It has lots of potential in certain contexts, but it ain't as simple as many seem to want to make it. And it won't work for everything. :-)

[@melissamayer9983]

how do you mean?

[@DavideBaroni]

@@melissamayer9983 For example, what if you "wake up" from your trance with a slightly DIFFERENT "critical factor", every time? Wouldn't you end up realising that ALL of those "critical factors" are, well... Kind of "arbitrary"? And wonder "What, or who, put that particular critical factor at work in the first place?"... And eventually notice that it was you yourself, and then "decide to decide" what "critical factor" would work in any given situation, that would actually relate to "You" and not to a particular "self-image" that would not allow you to access your deepest Self? Just one of the many possible ways... Also, "Hypnosis" is just a word, and it has a number of different meanings at least in practice. Let's define it as a state of consciousness in which you're "focused on selective aspects of something inside you". I don't use the kind of trance phenomena that this brilliant guy shows here, but you can well be very effective nonetheless, if you know what to do and how. To me, hypnosis is about allowing a person to find the solutions to her/his "problems" INSIDE her/himself, and to do so you often have to just remove the "critical factor" that doesn't allow the person to access the inner resources that would make her/him do that. It's a much more complex issue than it seems. And a much more simple one as well, at the same time. :-D

[@HayleyLeggs]

@@melissamayer9983 for instance, somebody who smokes is in a trance that smoking is something that they need and desire. You're breaking that trance by getting them to see past that.

They have to jump thru hoops to become one, while in the U.S.? You can get certified super easy actually. It depends what exactly those certifications are about. (Side note: There is massive huge Recreational hypnosis communities and registered around 1,100,00 worldwide On certain websites; & they have huge two week Hypnotherapy Conventions of the most professional Hypnotists ever known).

more than half way through and he's said nothing yet. i don't think he knows what he's talking about. he may well be able to hypnotise people but i don't think he knows why, how, what. in fact, I think, some people are suggestible to an extraordinary degree and these are the ones that get easily hypnotised. they willingly go into a state where they can accept suggestions and act upon them in ways that they never would ordinarily. but the hypnotists, like this one, see this, know this, use this, 'do this', but no nothing about how or why it works. I think. He's now at 13 minutes out of 18 and so far he's still told us nothing about how it works, what it is, etc... He's just trying to amuse the crowd and telling of studies. Useless
