Preface
After doing research in the field
of hynotherapy for nearly twenty-five years, we felt that
the purpose of our endeavours would be fulfilled if we compiled
all the knowledge we had acquired in this sphere in the form
of a book. The 'Personality Defect Model' discussed in this
book has been devised by us.
This book shall certainly prove to
be useful to physicians, psychologists, psychiatrists as well
as the general public to some extent, as it explains the techniques
of hypnotherapy and the methods of formulating suggestions
in a simple yet systematic manner.
To facilitate comprehension of the
subject by the common man, we have at the outset discussed
the structure and function of the mind and personality. This
is followed by a discussion on the mode of onset of a mental
disorder and details of treatment using the techniques of
hypnotherapy. Further, the common and special techniques of
hypnotherapy are discussed and their use in different medical
specialties is discussed. Details such as the course, duration,
cost, etc., of treatment are also dealt with. The concluding
chapter describes the superiority of this therapy above others.
If hypnotherapy is practice appropriately
based on the principles explained in this book, it will assist
in making one's personality healthier and enable one to become
happy. Once the personality becomes healthy, it is easier
to make rapid spiritual progress and achieve an ideal personality
by practising Spirituality. For greater details on spiritual
practice, our books on the 'Science of Spirituality' will
prove handy. We hope this endeavor shall popularize hypnotherapy
at the grass root level and also facilitate its development
as a superspecialty in India as well as abroad.
