In a hypnotic trance,
you can not be made to do anything against your will, or against your moral
beliefs.
A hypnotist can make you
do anything:
Again,
you will not do anything that goes against your values or beliefs. Any
suggestion that violates any strongly held feeling, moral, ethic or religious
belief will be automatically rejected by both your conscious mind and your
unconscious mind.
You won't come out of
the hypnotic state:
The worst thing that
could happen is falling into a natural sleep, and waking feeling energized and
refreshed.
Hypnosis is dangerous:
There is nothing
dangerous about hypnosis. If there were, you would be aware of it, and just
automatically slide into another state of consciousness.
Can I be hypnotized
without my consent:
You cannot be hypnotized
without your consent. You are always in full control, and you are aware of what
is happening. Hypnosis can help you let go of some of the restrictive control
you place upon yourself. You will never accept any suggestion in hypnosis that
you would not ordinarily approve of.
Will I reveal some deep,
dark, secret:
You are more alert in
hypnosis, so if you would not tell the hypnotist something now, you certainly
would not when in hypnosis.
Some believe they can
not be hypnotized:
Everyone capable of
understanding is capable of being hypnotized. However, hypnosis is a 100%
cooperative effort, so you can always choose not to go into hypnosis. It is
always your choice to go into hypnosis. It is always your choice to go deeper
into hypnosis. It is always your choice to stay in hypnosis. It is always your
choice to follow the suggestions you hear while in hypnosis.
Will I lose
consciousness:
Consciousness is
heightened during hypnosis. You will be even more aware of what is going on.
Your hearing will improve while in hypnosis. Your thinking will be clearer. Your
body may appear to be asleep, but your mind will be much more alert than normal.
Imagination, concentration and memory all dramatically improve while in
hypnosis.
