Hope is an impossible thing to make if we just wish it to happen. Thousand nights of pray, patience and efforts would not make every hopes come true. Only those who have the creative powers of subconscious could definitely make every dreams come true.” I read these words from a piece of old paper that I found five years ago when I was sitting alone in park after breaking up with my girlfriend. I didn’t quiet understand but I was deeply sure that it meant something and I decided to keep the paper and tried to get the answer.  Later, a year ago, I wrote this moment in my diary as an “opening life”.

In 2003, I met someone who introduced me with Alpha Power concept that has a connection with the words I found earlier. I was very interested in the concept of Alpha Power because I realized that my early life was already using the concept. In order to get more information and understand clearly about the Alpha Power, I was suggested to study Hypnotherapy.

In 2004, I studied Hypnotherapy and found the secret of the creative powers of the subconscious (or ALPHA POWER). I had a lot of surprise about the natural ability of human’s subconscious that it can be reprogrammed, enriched or empowered to be able to reach the dreams.

What is Alpha Power (the creative powers of subconscious)?

To achieve the success, one does not only need to work hard, pray and be patient but he also need to go deeply inside to his subconscious to synchronize his mind (hope) with his subconscious (will). The synchronization of mind and subconscious creates alpha power reaction (the reaction are determination of interest, faith and convince that he can definitely make his dream come true).

For this kind of job, hypnotherapy is the direct and effective way to synchronize the mind and the will. Moreover, Hypnotherapy can be used as a clinical healing method, a way of empowerment, altering the unexpected habit and hypnotherapy can help with IVF as well.

Why is hypnotherapy very powerful?

Naturally, our brain operates in four general states: Full Conscious Awareness (Beta) state, the Hypnotic (Alpha) State, the Dream (Trance) State, and the Sleep (Delta) State. These four states correspond to electrical activity in the brain and are defined by frequency ranges on an EEG.  Full Conscious Awareness occurs when the majority of the electrical activity in the brain is in the beta range (14-35 Hz).  The Hypnotic State occurs when brain activity is in the alpha range (8-13 Hz).  The Dream State occurs when brain activity is in the theta/trance range (4-7 Hz), and the Sleep State occurs when brain activity is in the delta range (.5-3 Hz).

Full Conscious Awareness is the state of which we spend most of our waking hours (conscious).  In this state, our mind is attentive and uses logic to reason, evaluate, assess, judge, and make decisions. Normally, hopes are the eruption of conscious (beta) when the mind is interrupted by the external induces which touch the emotion.

In the Hypnotic State, the subconscious is opened, memories become easily accessible, and new information is stored.  In the Hypnotic State, you are "experiencing" without questioning, without critical judgment or analysis, and the hypnotherapist can give the necessary suggestions to the subconscious as the process of motivation, empowerment or changing the habit.

Alpha state (subconscious) is the intelligent storage of human being that purely understand about the ability and interest (willing). Our conscious naturally has only12 % of storage capacity while subconscious has 18%. The capacity of conscious makes it impossible to store all the information that bombarded the mind every second, every minute and every day. The conscious only uses the relative information to process the life and store the other to the subconscious and will open when needs them.

The native process of our brain makes us sometime forget about some memory and need a relaxation to be able to remember again. The process of relaxation is self-hypnotherapy or using the guidance from hypnotherapist to enter the subconscious and recall the information or add the necessary suggestions.

“Hope” is never being impossible anymore with hypnotherapy because hypnotherapy can synchronize and empower the conscious (hope) and subconscious (will). Now, I understand the meaning of the words that I found 5 years ago: the creative power of subconscious
