Is there scientific proof that hypnosis works?
Yes. Hypnosis slows brain waves from cycling at 14-32 times per second down to as few as 4 times per second, which is the ideal speed for learning. It clears away the clutter of our conscious mind, opening a path directly to the unconscious–the part of the mind that operates not by logic but by feelings and instinct. Under ordinary circumstances, psychologists say we must repeat an action or reiterate an idea consistently for at least 30 days before it becomes ingrained in our subconscious. (That is why advertisers bombard us with the same commercials over and over.) But research shows that we can form new habits much more quickly with hypnosis than with any other method AND eliminate the old habits.
