Hypnosis Anchors
Anchoring is used in our lives in a multitude of ways, even
though you may have never heard the term before. Anchors are the
"triggers" and "buttons that get pushed" that can either make
your moment instantly positive and put a
smile on your face; or ruin our day in a flash by putting us in a negative
emotional state.
If you know about them and how to set them, anchors can also
be used purposefully as a powerful tool for managing our emotional states and
influencing our behaviors and decisions in a positive ways. With practice and
knowledge of anchors we can change our state of being instead of allowing our
state to change us.
You actually have the power to automatically switch your
mind to a positive state when you want to and are willing to. The human brain
is capable of that. It is this process that we call "anchoring". It
this process, through Hypnosis, where you will make positive and powerful changes
in your life.
What Is An Anchor?
There are different types of anchors. First, a good definition
of an anchor is a stimulus or behavior that is associated with a particular
state of mind or mood. For example, if every time you smelled bread baking you
associated it with a positive memory of being loved by your family; it is this
smell that then brings you immediately into a positive state of being. Science (Ivan Pavlov is a great example) has
proven that associations can trigger feelings and behaviors without someone
making a conscious effort. That means that you can improve or change your state
of mind based on positive associations. These positive associations can be
seeded into your subconscious mind during Hypnosis. Then consciously you can
use tangible anchors to bring you forward to your desired goals; bringing you
both success and happiness.
Visual Anchors
Visual anchors are among the most common. We have been
making associations ever since childhood. A good example of visual anchors is in
marketing and advertising. Think about when you were a child, before you could
read, you knew the McDonalds arches when you saw them. Today, you see the blue
box with the white letter f and know that references Facebook. We make
associations every day based on color, appearance, texture and faces. Think
about that grouchy boss or coworker you have had in the past, what do you feel
when you see this persons face? Now simply think about this person and you will
understand "anchoring". It puts you in a negative state of mind, just
by the mere association. There are positive and negative visual anchors. Another
great example, if we see the envelope that our paycheck arrives in, our state
of mind turns to a positive.
Auditory Anchors
An auditory anchor is a stimulus that is a sound or sounds
neurologically linked to a state of mind. Again it can be a positive or
negative state, but is linked with a sound. What do you feel when you hear the
alarm clock. Most people, not all, feel negative. That is because there is a
negative state associated with that particular sound.
Auditory anchors can also be positive, think about your
favorite movie and the sound track that goes along with it. It may be that when
you hear that particular song or music you feel refreshed, romantic or
motivated. That is because that particular song or music is associated with a
positive action or behavior that was carried out in that movie. A positive action
or behavior that you were attracted to.
Kinesthetic Anchors
A kinesthetic anchor is one that is a movement, touch or
physical action that associates a particular state of mind or wanted behavior.
This can best be explained with the touches, holding or hugging of a loved one.
When that person touches you it makes you feel special and loved. This is because
you have associated touch with the love and affection of that person which sparks
a positive emotional state.
You can develop kinesthetic anchors on your own. At MichelleA Leonard Hypnosis I use Ear seeds; this is called Auricular Therapy. Combined
with Hypnosis this kinesthetic anchor will bring your hypnosis experience and your
results to new levels of success.
Olfactory Anchoring
The sense of smell is the only sensory channel that is wired
directly into the amygdala - the part of the brain responsible for
"tagging" anchors with emotional states. Smells can be very powerful anchors. Aromatherapy
is very helpful in setting anchors for states you want to experience or
behaviors you want to follow through on.
All Hypnosis experiences at Michelle A Leonard Hypnosis are
anchored with essential oils. Essential oils are paired with your Hypnosis
script based on the results and goals you desire.
Using Anchors In Life
Anchors are a part of everyday life. Think about products
and advertisements on television, radio and on the internet. The leading
manufacturers like Nike and Reebok spend millions on leading positive role
models and associations in consumer's minds. This is well worth the money for
the manufactures because consumers make positive associations and simply must
have the product. They feel because someone that is so positive has the product
it must be good. This is the reason that there is billions of dollars in
advertisements spent every year.
After a session of Hypnosis with Michelle A Leonard Hypnosis
you will leave with Tangible life tools. These Anchors will aid your conscious mind
in communicating with and utilizing the suggest information that was subconsciously
planted.
There are key factors when using anchors and if you can
learn how to use them you will be able to control your state of mind. This can
set the stage for success, energy and a multitude of other positives in your
life.
Intensity: The
intensity of the experience can control how fast the anchor makes the
associations. If the experience is extremely intense, it may be that the
association is strong after only one occurrence. On the other hand, if the
experience is less intense, it may take several times to associate the state
with the experience.
Timing: The most
effective time for the association of the anchor is at the peak of the
experience. As the intensity of the experience lessens, so does the
association. If you can maintain this intensity for a longer period of time, it
is more likely the anchor will be established.
Uniqueness: It
is best to find an anchor that is unique to the experience. Individuals have
the ability to use any three of the types of anchors independently or all
together. The key here is to ensure that the anchors are used together and at
the same time. Make sure that the anchor is associated only with that specific
experience, and is not common to other experiences.
Repetition: Practice makes perfect! Just like anything else, replicating the experience
will achieve the anchor permanently. If you are attempting to build an anchor,
you may have to replicate it a time or two exactly. If it is a vision or touch,
it needs to be exact to build in your mind.

Seasonal
affective disorder (SAD), also called "winter depression" - is
considered a subtype of depression or bipolar disorder. While not
officially in the category of mental illness listed by the American
Psychiatric Associations, it is estimated to affect 10 million Americans
- mostly women. Another 25 million Americans may have a mild form of
SAD, sometimes called the "winter blues" or "winter blahs". The risk of
winter depression increases the further from the equator a person lives.
According to the Mayo Clinic, most people who have seasonal affective disorder have symptoms that start in the fall and continue into the winter months. Less often, people suffer from seasonal affective disorder that causes depression in the spring and into the summer months. People who work at night or who work long hours in buildings with few windows can experience SAD year-round. Other people may experience a bout of SAD during extended periods of overcast weather.
Seasonal affective disorder causes depression, lethargy, irritability and a desire to avoid social situations. It can also create an urge to overeat, particularly carbohydrates and junk food.
Seasonal affective disorder is also linked with a chemical imbalance that results from the decrease of light in daylight hours. Melatonin, a brain chemical that plays a role in determining mood, is produced in greater quantities when it is dark outside. This means that more melatonin is produced during the fall and winter. An increase in this hormone can cause symptoms of sleepiness, lethargy and depression, which makes it more difficult for the body to carry out daily tasks that require lots of energy and activity.
While these feelings of mild malaise come and go easily for some, each winter signifies a new cycle of depression for others.
