Hypnotize Someone
Hypnotize Someone: Is it Possible?
The entertainment shows in Vegas and on television that show “regular” people in a so-called hypnotic trance clucking like a chicken is really just a show. These people are not hypnotized. There is so much misinformation out there about hypnosis that it is time to set the record straight and dispel some of the many common myths about this valuable treatment.
Myth #1: You lose complete control of your mind and body.
Not true. You will not lose control over what you do and say, as the fictionalized people on TV do. Hypnosis is simply a more focused and heightened state of consciousness. You are actually more attuned to your surroundings. You WILL NOT lose control over your personality and your WILL maintain your integrity.
Myth #2: Your therapist will control you like a puppet.
False. Hypnosis is complete voluntary. The hypnotherapist simply uses the power of positive suggestion as the vehicle for change. To cause change, the hypnotherapist uses suggestion to influence the subconscious mind.
Myth #3: You will forget everything that happens under hypnosis.
A majority of people that go under hypnosis remember everything that is said and done during the session. In rare cases, people who are susceptible to deep hypnotic states will experience some level of lack of memory, however this is rare.
Myth #4: You can be sent into a hypnotic trance against your will.
This couldn’t be farther from the truth. For hypnosis to work at all, you need to be a willing participant in allowing it to work
