Words to heal ailments
Hypnosis is a form of talk therapy that uses an altered state of consciousness to work with the subconscious mind.
​
The subconscious:
​
The term “subconscious” refers to a person’s inner mind: their thoughts, emotions, memories, beliefs, bad habits, psychological wounds, etc.​
​​
​
The altered state of consciousness:
​​
An altered state of consciousness refers to a state that differs from the ordinary state of consciousness, the state in which each of us lives our lives.
​
Every day, we all experience several altered states of consciousness without even realizing it, such as when we are lost in thought, immersed in a good book or captivated by a movie, or even experiencing strong emotions.
​​
​
A talking therapy:
​
Hypnosis is, in the noble sense of the term, a form of “psychotherapy,” that is, a therapy of the mind, which is practiced through speech and used to resolve psychological issues.
​
Because it is often very difficult to consciously change a subconscious problem, hypnosis allows us to work deeply, freely, and precisely on a person's unconscious, their psychological automatisms.
​
Humanist Hypnosis:
​​​
At Odyssée, we use Humanist Hypnosis, which is a new form of hypnosis.
It is an associative form of hypnosis.
Unlike other forms of hypnosis, which tend to dissociate, Humanist Hypnosis associates the conscious and the unconscious.
Humanist Hypnosis works “openly” to generate a state of hypnosis without loss of consciousness. On the contrary, it increases awareness of oneself, others, and the world.
The person is in a “state of heightened awareness.” They act on themselves as they wish and at their own pace.
Thanks to its unique characteristics, Humanist Hypnosis is also:
-
a therapy practice (stress, sleep, weight, smoking, etc.)
-
a psychotherapy (feeling unwell, depression, relationship issues, etc.)
-
a life coaching and development tool (profound action that respects privacy).

Humanist Hypnosis:
a new vision of hypnosis

Humanist Hypnosis was developed in France by Olivier Lockert and Patricia d'Angeli, two leading figures in contemporary hypnosis.
By combining the rigor of therapeutic approaches with symbolic, philosophical, and humanist dimensions, they created an innovative, accessible, and profoundly transformative method.
​
Their vision? Conscious hypnosis, where the individual remains fully present in their own transformation process. Their teaching at the IFHE is now spread to more than 25 countries.
