Are you scared of hypnosis?

Hypnosis is not sleep, and a person does not feel like being in sleep when he is in a trance. It is not even a state of loss of consciousness. The question arises, what does a person feel when he is experiencing hypnosis, or when he is in a trance?

Well, the hypnotic trance is quite unspectacular. Hypnosis is a natural phenomenon which we encounter daily.

Have you ever found yourself:

Looking out of a window with a far away look in your eyes, thinking deeply and intensely about a particular thing?

Reading a really good book and getting so absorbed and you forget where you are and how much time passed while you were reading?

Getting involved in a lengthy but pleasurable task like gardening or playing, and forgetting about the time?

Sitting in a passenger seat of a car or a train for a long time and feeling that the journey is nearly putting you to sleep?

Jogging or working out and feeling detached from your worries for a while?

If you can relate to any of these experiences, you have already been in a hypnosis. The only difference is that you will not call it a hypnotic trance in everyday terms. However, if anything needs your attention, someone calls your name, door bell or the phone rings, you snap out of the experience immediately.

We all switch in and out of hypnosis several times a day quite naturally and automatically. All a hypnotist does is help you achieve a trance-like state on purpose rather than leaving it to chance. 

No hypnotist can hypnotize you against your will. If you do not want to follow his or her instructions, there is nothing he or she can do.

When you are in hypnosis, you direct your attention inwards. Even though you are aware of where you are and who is with you, these things are no longer at the centre of your attention. Instead, you are concentrating on the suggestions the therapist is giving you. While you do this, you can still open your eyes whenever you want, but since you are in a relaxed and peaceful state, you are less likely to feel inclined to open your eyes.

The role of the hypnotherapist is to take you on a journey into hypnosis. He or she only facilitate hypnosis, it is the person who goes into hypnosis, if he or she wants to. 

All hypnosis is really self hypnosis.

There are many myths about hypnosis that keep suffering people away from this wonderful healing therapy. I will clear them all one by one in future articles.
