Hypnosis is an artificially induced passive state in which there is
an increased amenability and responsiveness to suggestions and commands
provided that these do not conflict seriously with the subjects own
conscious or unconscious wishes.
Can Anyone Be Hypnotized?
Yes, as long as they want to be. A willing, strong minded person
makes the best subject. The higher the I.Q. the better.
Can A Person Be Left In A Hypnotic Trance?
No, there has never been a case recorded of a hypnotized person
failing to return to normal. Should the hypnotist for any reason fail to
tell them to wake up, they would eventually fall into a regular sleep
which would bring them out of it.
Can You Be Made To Do Anything While Hypnotized?
No, you will not do anything that would be against your moral or
ethical code.
What Feeling Do You Have When Hypnotized?
That of a profound relaxation and contentment. You ARE NOT asleep or
unconscious because you can hear all sounds and are not in a regular
sleep. Upon awakening you will remember all the suggestions given you,
unless you do not want to remember. When you awaken you are full of
energy as though you had been asleep for many hours and usually obtain a
feeling of self-confidence never before reached. In general, you feel as
though you have been through one of the most exciting experiences of
your life!
Can You Stop Smoking Or Lose Weight Through Hypnosis?
Yes, these along with many other annoying or undesirable habits are
treated very successfully through the use of hypnosis or self-hypnosis.
