HYPNOSIS QUESTIONS:
Is It Real?
Very much so. The “hypnotic state” is one
in which we are all in and out of every day, mostly without being aware
of it. It’s that sleepy state of mind when you’re just falling
asleep or just waking up, and you’re aware of your surroundings
but you’re also still in your dreams. You can also experience
hypnosis when you’re driving on a long trip and all of a sudden
you’re at your destination without really remembering the drive.
Another good example of how we’ve all been hypnotized is the phenomena
that happens when we get ready to cross a street. It was drilled into
us at an early age to always look both ways before crossing. Over and
over again our parents would tell us to look both ways. They were, in
a sense, hypnotizing us until it became an automatic response to do
it every time. Now, even when we’re crossing a one-way street
and we know there are no cars coming the other way, we automatically
look both ways. We can’t help it because we’ve been programmed
to do it.
Is It Safe?
Yes. As stated above, hypnosis is a natural state of
mind that we all experience every day. It’s not a spooky, weird,
out-of body experience. Hypnotized people are in control of their own
minds at all times.
Can The Hypnotist Make Someone Become Hypnotized?
No. All hypnosis is self-hypnosis. A hypnotist can’t
force you into hypnosis. If you are open to the idea, are comfortable
with the hypnotist, and willing to go along with his suggestions, then
you will have a better chance of becoming hypnotized. But if you absolutely
refuse to go along with the suggestions you will not become hypnotized.
Who Can Become Hypnotized?
Anyone who can hold a single thought in their mind
is capable of being hypnotized. Some factors will affect a person’s
ability to get into the hypnotic state on any given day: alcohol/drug
consumption, a lot of other things on their mind, unable to relax in
general, not enough sleep the night before...
Can A Person Get “Stuck” In The Hypnotic Trance?
No. If for some reason the hypnotist looses rapport
with the subject (he leaves the room, the subject can no longer hear
the hypnotist etc), the hypnotized subject, within a few minutes, will
either come back to his normal state of mind or will fall into a natural,
normal sleep. There’s really no place else to go.
Can It Really Help Me to Quit Smoking, Lose Weight, Etc?
Yes, it is possible to use hypnosis for any number
of therapeutic reasons. As noted earlier, we’ve all been programmed
to look both ways as we cross a street, and we’ve been programmed
by advertisers to like certain products and by politicians to think
a certain way. Why not use it for your personal, positive gain? You
can re-program yourself to make better eating choices, or to enjoy exercise
again, or to realize that you don’t need cigarettes anymore. It’s
a powerful tool that can be used for positive results.
