What Is Hypnotherapy & How Does It Work
Hypnotherapy is a safe, natural way to release unwanted patterns, calm the nervous system, and create lasting change.
Hypnosis itself is simply a natural state of focused awareness and relaxation, a bit like daydreaming or becoming completely absorbed in a book or film. Hypnotherapy uses this natural state to help you make meaningful, positive shifts from within.
Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, stress, confidence, sleep issues, or unwanted habits, hypnotherapy helps you work with the subconscious mind, the part that quietly drives your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.
At Inspirational-Minds, hypnotherapy is compassionate, clinical, and tailored to you. It’s not stage tricks or loss of control; It’s about finding clarity, confidence, and freedom from what’s been holding you back.
How Hypnosis Works in Everyday Life
You naturally experience hypnosis around 120 times a day. Think of those moments when your mind drifts at traffic lights, when TV time seems to vanish, or when you arrive at work without recalling the drive.
Hypnotherapy builds on that same state of focused relaxation. In this natural state, your body feels calm while your subconscious mind becomes open to positive change. This is why hypnotherapy is so effective for habits, stress responses, and patterns that talking alone can’t shift.
Why Hypnotherapy Works When Talking Therapy Doesn’t
If counselling or talking therapies have left you going in circles, you’re not alone.
Repeating the same story often reinforces the problem because it all happens in the conscious mind. Each time the same thoughts are revisited, the neural pathways become stronger, making the cycle harder to break. That’s why many people spend years talking about the same thing without real change.
Hypnotherapy works differently: it reaches the subconscious, where emotional triggers, habits, and beliefs are stored. Instead of repeating the story, hypnotherapy gently rewires those pathways, so you can move forward without years of going over the past.
By addressing the root cause, hypnotherapy can ease overthinking, panic, self-doubt, and other unhelpful loops, creating lasting emotional freedom.
How Online Hypnotherapy via Zoom Can Help You
Working online makes hypnotherapy more accessible than ever. Through Zoom, you can access sessions from the comfort of your own home while still receiving the same safe, effective guidance.
Many clients find this even more relaxing than in-person sessions, as they’re already in a familiar setting. Once the call ends, there’s no stressful journey afterwards. You can simply stay calm, settled, and let the benefits of the session sink in more deeply.
Online hypnotherapy is highly effective for:
-
Anxiety and stress
-
Confidence and self-esteem issues
-
Sleep difficulties and overthinking
-
Unwanted habits and phobias
-
Emotional blocks that logic alone can’t shift
You stay fully aware, in control, and supported throughout, while your subconscious begins releasing what no longer serves you.
(Also see Anxiety and Depression, Unwanted Behaviours and Stop smoking Hypnotherapy for related support.)
What Hypnotherapy Feels Like for Clients
Hypnotherapy is not sleep. It’s not mind control. It’s an empowering state where real, positive change begins.
Clients often describe it as:
-
Deep relaxation
-
A sense of coming home to themselves
-
Finally letting go of resistance and stress
It feels natural because the change comes from you, not imposed from outside.

Testimonials
My hypnotherapy sessions with Dan Bennett at Inspirational Minds have been so transformative. Dan is so knowledgeable of how the subconscious mind works & spends the time going through everything before and after the session. Before my sessions with Dan, I was dealing with anxiety, grief, stress and recurring IBS. This has now completely gone, I feel calm & strong. It's nothing short of a miracle, like a switch has been turned back on after stumbling around in the dark for so long. Highly highly recommend.
