Therapeutic Uses of Hypnotherapy & Out-of-Body Experiences
Thanks for your patronage. Article continues below: |
An out-of-body experience, or OBE, involves the feeling of floating outside of one`s physical body. Some people report being able to see their physical body while having an OBE. According to researchers an OBE has therapeutic benefits for people including helping them cope with stress. Science Daily reports that one in ten people will have an out-of-body experience in their lifetime.
There are several different types of out-of-body experiences. One occurs during sleep. People who have had an OBE during sleep have also reported having a lucid dream prior to the OBE. They also said that their sleep was not deep. Another type of OBE occurs in near-death experiences. It is thought that either mental or physical traumatic events could cause such an OBE to occur.
An OBE coincides with astral projection is the belief that your mind can be separate from the body. Often times, people who have had an OBE state that they have looked at their own bodies when they have managed to separate themselves from it. It’s difficult to determine exactly what causes an OBE but researchers say that hypnosis can help induce such a state.
Researchers involved in the study wanted to see how out-of-body experiences would affect the patients view of themselves and if it would influence their behavior. The three participants in the study each had different issues to be addressed.
The researchers concluded that an OBE greatly improved the therapeutic benefits for each of the patients.

Great post! Hypnotherapy have always awed me in many ways. For some, it’s a great cure to phobias and help get rid of bad habits. It’s amazing to be able to control other people’s minds by putting them to sleep and get inside their subconscious. I look forward to more revelations on hypnotherapy from this site. Thanks!

Thanks Andy. I do hypnosis with clients regularly and every time I walk away feeling awed and humbled by the experience.
One correction though, you are not “controlling other people’s minds” , you are not “putting them to sleep” nor are you “getting inside their subconscious” . These are myths , not realities of hypnosis. The client simply hypnotizes themselves, they are not asleep, far from it and I am usually sitting outside their subconscious on my chair, they are the ones getting in touch with their subconscious
