Hypnotherapy
Transform Your Life by Rewiring Your Mind
At Hobart Modern Hypnosis, we specialise in helping you break free from unwanted habits and create lasting behavioural change. Whether you want to quit smoking, lose weight, improve sleep, or overcome procrastination, our tailored hypnosis sessions work at the subconscious level to make change effortless and sustainable.

Why Choose Hypnosis for Behavioural Change?
Changing habits is difficult because most behaviours are governed by the subconscious mind — the part you’re often unaware of. Hypnosis taps directly into this deeper level, allowing you to:
- Release limiting beliefs and patterns
- Reprogram automatic responses
- Build new, positive habits naturally and easily
Our approach empowers you to take control of your actions and transform your mindset for lasting success.
Common Habit Changes We Support
- Smoking cessation
- Weight management and appetite control
- Overcoming procrastination and boosting motivation
- Improving sleep quality and overcoming insomnia
- Reducing stress-related behaviours (e.g., nail-biting, teeth grinding)
- Breaking negative thought loops and emotional eating
How Does Hypnosis Help You Change?
During hypnosis, your conscious mind relaxes, and the subconscious becomes more open to positive suggestions and new ideas. This helps you:
- Shift how you think and feel about behaviours you want to change
- Replace old habits with healthier alternatives
- Strengthen willpower and self-discipline
- Maintain motivation even when faced with challenges
Top 5 Reasons to Try Hypnosis for Behavioural Change
- It Targets the Root of the Habit – Most habits are driven by the subconscious mind — hypnosis works directly at that level, where lasting change really happens.
- No Willpower Battles – Forget relying on sheer willpower. Hypnosis helps rewire your automatic responses so that better choices feel easier and more natural.
- Break Free from Old Patterns – Whether it’s smoking, emotional eating, procrastination or negative self-talk, hypnosis helps interrupt and replace the cycle — for good.
- It’s Fast and Effective – Many people notice significant change after just 1–3 sessions, making hypnosis one of the quickest ways to shift deeply ingrained behaviours.
- It Supports Long-Term Success – Unlike quick fixes or fad solutions, hypnosis helps build lasting mental strategies for self-control, confidence, and motivation.

How does hypnosis help change habits?
Hypnosis works by accessing the subconscious mind, where habits are stored and reinforced. In this deeply relaxed state, we can introduce positive suggestions that help break old patterns and form new, healthier behaviours.
What kinds of habits can hypnosis help with?
We help clients overcome a wide range of habits and behaviours, including:
- Smoking
- Overeating or emotional eating
- Procrastination
- Nail-biting or teeth grinding
- Insomnia and poor sleep habits
- Negative self-talk or thought loops
- Addictive patterns (social media, gambling, etc.)
Is hypnosis more effective than willpower alone?
Yes. While willpower relies on your conscious effort, hypnosis targets the subconscious, where automatic habits are formed. That means change can feel easier and more natural — not like a constant struggle.
How many sessions will I need?
Many people notice significant shifts in 1–3 sessions, especially for focused habit change (like smoking). More complex behavioural patterns may benefit from a short series of sessions tailored to your goals.
Will I lose control during hypnosis?
Not at all. You’ll remain awake, aware, and fully in control throughout the session. Hypnosis is simply a focused, relaxed state, not sleep or mind control.
Can hypnosis help with motivation?
Absolutely. Hypnosis is a powerful tool for boosting internal motivation, especially when it comes to consistent action, goal achievement, and breaking through procrastination or self-sabotage.
Is hypnosis safe?
Yes. Hypnosis is a safe, natural, and drug-free method used in therapeutic settings worldwide. At Hobart Modern Hypnosis, sessions are conducted by experienced, qualified professionals in a supportive environment.
