Meditation & Relaxation in Hypnotherapy.
A good clinical hypnotherapist, doing work in the clinic, will always get their client to feel relaxed before the hypnotherapy they have both agreed face-to-face on the details of, takes place.
This stage of helping the client to become at ease with the hypnotherapist, is known in the hypnotherapy business as "establishing rapport".
In hypnotherapy, a relaxed and trusting state of mind are necessary components for a successful hypnotherapy session to take place (note: hypnotherapy is nothing to do with stage hypnosis. Suggestive hypnotherapy, the most popular choice of clinical hypnotherapists worldwide today, does help greatly to produce a highly relaxed state of mind - ie. "rapport").

Stan Hood's clinical hypnotherapy CDs and mp3 downloads are carefully worded to assist the listener to reach this relaxed - serene - state of mind. In terms of brainwave activity, the brain will be producing more alpha waves and theta waves.
Now, in a live hypnotherapy clinic, the hypnotherapist will be able to see when the client has relaxed into that calm, meditative state and is then open to receive the hypnotic suggestions agreed to earlier by them both.

However, on any CD or mp3 hypnotherapy programmes, the hypnotherapist is just a voice. The hypnotherapist who recorded the original CD will always have to make an assessment, based on experience in a clinic, as to how long to continue the the opening, deep relaxation suggestions - aimed for the average person - before progressing on to the hypnotic suggestions of the programme proper.
With the Stan Hood recorded programmes, this is where the careful wording, and careful timing, come into their own. Careful choice of words at the start, with careful repetition of key words, will ensure that the listener will indeed reach that relaxed, open-to-suggestion state, where the hypnotic suggestions will be accepted.
And on that last comment in particular, you may have already read elsewhere on this website, that no matter what any hypnotherapist says to you when you are being hypnotised, if anything goes against your moral or ethical codes, you will reject that suggestion every time.
