Hypnotherapy is a form of therapy that utilizes hypnosis to facilitate positive change in an individual’s thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Hypnosis involves inducing a state of deep relaxation and focused attention, during which an individual becomes more open and receptive to suggestions. In this state, the hypnotherapist can guide the individual to explore their thoughts and emotions more deeply and access their subconscious mind to address underlying issues. 

Both guided meditation and hypnotherapy incorporate relaxation and visualization techniques but the main difference lies in the intended purpose of the session. During hypnotherapy, the hypnotherapist guides the client into a state of deep relaxation and then utilizes various techniques to help them access their subconscious mind and work towards a specific goal or address a particular issue. On the other hand, guided meditation focuses on helping the individual enter a state of peaceful awareness and observation of their thoughts and surroundings, without attempting to change them.
