What is hypnotherapy?

It works only if there is a strong desire to change and if the language used is understood clearly.
Will i lose control under hypnosis?
No.
While you will be in a deeply relaxed state of mind and body, you will be aware and actually interact with the therapist. If at any time you feel uncomfortable, you can always ask to stop.
Many people ask if they will tell me all their secrets under hypnosis. As a therapist, I am here to listen to those things you cannot talk to anyone else about and help you find resolution. I can’t read your mind and help you magically.
How much does it cost?
One session costs between INR 3000 and INR 7000 at Connect. The duration is between 1.5 to 2 hours. Certain programs like smoking cessation require an upfront payment for at least 6 sessions to ensure commitment to the goal.

It is just one tool, amongst many.
How is hypnotherapy different from psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy uses the conscious awareness and the deductions of therapist and client based on the memories that surface, to understand the roots of an issue.
Hypnotherapy uses hypnosis to access the subconscious mind and it allows for a much deeper healing and its much quicker.So the main difference is in depth and in the speed of resolving issues.
Hypnotherapeutic techniques combined with cognitive therapies make for a powerful process of healing.
What can be treated with hypnotherapy?
It can be used very effectively on a wide array of ailments, addictions and complaints. Our section on hypnotherapy under the services tab gives a comprehensive list of successfully resolved issues.
What is Trans personal regression therapy?
It is similar to and based on hypnotherapy, used to access and experience past/other lives.
It is for therapy and healing and not just for accessing out of curiosity.
The issue of past lives itself is filled with controversy, however, in my experience, these techniques, very quickly help a client understand and overcome limiting patterns that do not seem to have a logical origin in this lifetime.
When is it useful to undergo past life regressions?
It is very useful in dealing with an issue in one sitting. It takes much longer than normal sessions, with the duration running to even 3 hours at times.
At connect, our therapists will explain the process to you and use it in conjunction with other modalities as and when required.

What are chakras?
Energy that keeps your body going flows along pathways that are not in the body, physically. Chakras are points at which these energetic pathways meet.
How does chakra healing work?
A Chakra reading helps to understand where the blockages in your energetic body could lie. This can be cleansed in many ways.The practitioner can work physically, using crystals and such tools or else through the use of appropriate affirmations or sounds.
How many sessions do i need to come for?
It depends on the issue. Typically the Chakra route is taken when there is no clarity about what the client really wants to achieve. The reading helps the practitioner understand where the blocks are and then to interview the client accordingly. At the end of the session, a balancing and healing routine ensures that the client is in a much better state.
There is typically, only one session you need to come for, followed by a 21 day practice that you will be asked to do. Post that, you can discuss what your goals are with your therapist to bring about the changes you want to see.
