Warriors, welcome to episode number 109 of the Anxiety Guy podcast. I'm Dennis some second

today. I'm answering a question that people had for me in the last couple of weeks and

that allows the analytical judgmental mind to leave for a certain time frame. This then allows a

traced to its use as a healing therapy way back in ancient Greece. So hypnosis in itself is a practice

that helps a person bypass the conscious mind, the analytical rational mind, and goes directly to the subconscious mind.

Hypnosis isn't something that's done to you.

Instead, it's triggering a process that happens inside you all the time.
