“You are braver than you believe,
stronger than you seem,
and smarter than you think.”
A.A Milne
This is an issue close to Niki´s heart. She, herself, was diagnosed a few years back with Multiple Sclerosis. Finding the idea that “the body attacks itself” absurd, she turned to hypnotherapy to decipher the root cause of this disorder and not simply treat the symptoms.
Although she trusts and has great respect for the medical profession and research, she is also a great believer that many of the challenges we encounter, like diseases or mentally generated illnesses, involve some part of the unconscious. In fact, cognitive neuroscientists have conducted many studies that show that 95% of our brain activity is generated by the unconscious mind. So that means that most of our decisions, actions, emotions, and behaviour depend on our unconscious awareness.
Today, we know that one of the major contributors of Autoimmune Disease is related to our emotional and mental being. Deepak Chopra said that
“Every thought and emotion you experience touches every single cell in your body. So, what do you think happens to your body, when you constantly feed it negative thoughts?”
The good news is that we control our thoughts and emotions. Our thoughts control how our body responds and we control our thoughts.
Hypnotherapy makes it possible to rewire our brain and to reprogram our thoughts about a particular health belief we have about ourselves. Changing our thoughts will change our behaviours and will change our body’s reactions and response.
