STUDYING & TEST/EXAM PREPARATION HYPNOTHERAPY

One application of hypnotherapy that I practice is the engagement of clients' unconscious minds to recognize and participate more actively with their specific tasks and goals which require a heightened degree of focus, concentration, and/or mental acuity and/or performance, including aspects like memory, problem solving, and executive functioning.

Incredibly, some neuropsychological research indicates that the unconscious mind has 275,000 times the neuroprocessing capacity of the conscious mind, which means that even a little more involvement or calibration from or of the unconscious mind can have a tremendous impact!

Even beyond accessing the superior general unconscious processing power, other neuropsychological principles, such as frame-linked memories, context-dependent nature of memories, and the state-dependent attribute of some memories, all of which are interrelated and can be exploited with the tools offered by hypnotherapy in order to both further boost memory and recall and to calibrate your unconscious mind to study in a way that will allow for better retention of the subject matter, both critical traits for most exams. 

Executive Functioning refers to the portion of our brains which are responsible for maintaining concentration and attention in a focused manner, time management, organizing and prioritizing the thoughts and impressions that cross one's mind at any given time, multitasking, impulse management, and applying one's experiences to a specific problem or task in a learned manner.  It is of substantial importance to exams and test taking.
