No. You are in control at all times. You can choose to come out of hypnosis at any time and simply open your eyes whenever you want to.
No. Brain wave patterns show that you are simply in a deep state of relaxation and not asleep or unconscious. You are aware of everything that is going on and can talk to the therapist at any time.
Only if you want to! You are not under anybody’s control and you will only accept suggestions that are beneficial to you.
There is no such thing as a hypnotised feeling. Some people feel heavy, some feel light or even tingly while others feel nothing at all.
Hypnosis is a totally natural state. Hypnotherapy has been used in numerous ways for thousands of years. Nowadays it is being used more and more alongside traditional medicine and dentistry; it is even used as an alternative to anaesthesia.
Almost anyone can be hypnotised if they want to be, except when someone is under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or if they have severe learning difficulties. However you cannot be made to do anything against your will.
The stage hypnotist is skilled in choosing individuals who are very suggestible and who want to behave as outrageously as possible! They believe that the hypnotist will make them do something silly and go along with it. Hypnosis slightly lowers natural inhibitions but the person remains totally aware and can choose whether or not to follow the hypnotist’s suggestions.
Only good ones. Sometimes when one issue is resolved, it can have beneficial effects on other areas of your life too. Clients are sometimes amazed that a short therapy can change their lives for good.
