We live in a world today that is full of perceptions, deceptions and misconceptions; it is often hard to tell one from the other when learning about new things.

Hypnosis is no stranger to an incredible amount of misconceptions, which is why it is important to really understand what those misconceptions are before assuming you can or cannot accomplish an objective through Hypnosis. To really understand what Hypnosis, or anything for that matter, is you must first understand all that it is not.

Once you know what Hypnosis is not, everything you are left with is what Hypnosis is.

Hypnosis has been given many false pretenses through the media, movies and just plain rumor. Hypnosis is not the ability to have complete domination over one’s mind, nor is it domination over another human being.

Another thing Hypnosis is not is the ability to dominate another’s will. In a nutshell there is nothing about Hypnosis that will lead you to complete domination of the world or human kind, so if this is your intention you should stop here and embark on a new path.

The misconceptions that surround Hypnosis can seem almost endless, which can often be the case when you consider any type of work that is associated with power over one’s mind, thoughts, ideas and actions.

There are all kinds of associations and false ideas that are created when society acknowledges that power accompanies any way of life, this include Hypnosis. For example money carries the connotation of power, however unless you are knowledgeable about how to be powerful with money you will fail.

The misconceptions about Hypnosis must be wiped from the slate if you are serious about becoming an eloquent and masterful hypnotist.

The most common misconception in the field of Hypnosis is that associated with power. Yes it is true that you will own a sort of power over the mind of your subjects, however this is not to say you will be able to control them completely.

Quite the opposite, part of Hypnosis that few are aware of is that Hypnosis is actually a type of negotiation with the unconscious mind. The unconscious mind is where you store your base of morals and ethics, and while you can as a hypnotist negotiate with the unconscious, you will never be able to change or control one’s morals and ethics.

The ethical code stored in the unconscious is unbreakable, these are the ideas, beliefs and moral standards that every person chooses to live their life by.

Among the common myths of Hypnosis is the idea that one can completely control another, this is a myth simply because a person, whether in hypnotic trance or not, will only do what they want to do.

A good example of this is the common entertainment of stage hypnotists. Stage hypnotists will ask for volunteers from their audience, volunteers know on some level that they will be asked while in a hypnotic state to do things that they may not be aware that they are doing, they may even be embarrassing.

However on some level in their minds they are volunteering because they crave the attention that comes from being exhibitionists. The volunteers know they will be controlled by the hypnotist and they are consciously okay with that because it does not cause conflict with their moral code.

Another common myth about the art of Hypnosis is that you can create a person so controlled that they will do your evil bidding, or acts that a hypnotist may not want to be personally responsible for. This again is untrue on the level that this will most often conflict with the moral standing and ethics of most people, therefore is not possible.

All this leaves us with what is left, which is what Hypnosis really is. Conversational Hypnosis is a way of healing and helping people to live better, healthier and happier lives through the art of language and suggestion. Hypnosis is used to its full potential when all parties are prospering from it; the ‘hypnotic messenger’ is a prime example of this.

The ‘hypnotic messenger’ was created when two hypnotists who were seeing the same subject exchanged messages through the subject.

The messages were placed in the subconscious while the person was in a hypnotic state. As the subject visited each hypnotist and relayed the messages back and forth the hypnotists gave him free treatments as they felt a little shame in the amusing yet harmless game they were playing.

The subject continued to deliver the messages and everyone learned from the situation. The subject was receiving free therapy, and the hypnotists were not only amusing themselves but learning in the process.

This process worked because there was no moral rule being broken or violated in the process of message relay, subconsciously the subject was in agreement or had not conflict with the messages the hypnotists were sending back and forth.

On the other hand a client that is given the subconscious message to do harm to another will not carry out the suggestion because it will often conflict with their morals.

A subject that is asked to commit an act that is forbidden by their religion will not do so even if it is something that may seem harmless to many people, such as dancing. All suggestions and whether they are carried out or not depends on the moral code of the subject and whether or not they truly, ethically believe it is an acceptable behavior.

As a hypnotist it is important to focus on the fact that your goal is to help the mind fulfill what is important to that person, find and fulfill it’s purpose, in this the unconscious mind will do all that is necessary and possible to reach that goal and work with the hypnotist for complete success.

I get asked this question a lot: “What Exactly is Hypnosis?”

Ok, let me do my best to explain it to you.

While Hypnosis is not a word we hear everyday, it is a word that many people seem to have a preconceived definition for. The most common thought is that Hypnosis is an altered state of mind that brings the subject to a trance-like state.

The rest of the definition not quite as well known is that the subject is vulnerable to suggestions in order to change his/her life. When combined, this is a correct assumption and a rather accurate description.

However Hypnosis entails more than just the trance-like state you see depicted in many movies and television shows, it is a deep and complicated relationship held between the hypnotist and the subject that comes complete with a desired set of goals to achieve.

Hypnosis is an altered state of mind. When a subject is under Hypnosis, he/she is much more responsive. As he/she experiences his/her inner world the subject’s thoughts and ideas become more vivid and actionable through the art of suggestion and language.

The responsiveness in a hypnotic trance is much more sensitive than that of a normal state of being; thoughts and suggestions presented by you, the hypnotist, will become part of your subject’s inner world creating a pallet for you to work with and mold into the desired outcome.

This is important to remember, because as you sharpen your skills as a hypnotist you will always be affecting your subject, everything that becomes a part of your clients’ inner world will eventually become a part of their outer world as they put your hypnotic suggestions into action.

Another thing that Hypnosis is is a very natural way of being, it is not magical or strange, and in fact many people spend a large amount of their days in hypnotic trances, as you learn to entrance people you will start to notice those around you who are experiencing hypnotic trances in everyday life.

An example of an everyday experience that can often result in a hypnotic trance is driving. Many times we get behind the wheel and know where we started, and suddenly we are at our destination. We don’t recall how we got there or any of the events that happened along the drive, this is a hypnotic trance.

The rhythms we are used to, such as the feel of the car, can relax us to the point that our subconscious takes over and does the work for us while we, excuse the term as many like to call it, ‘zone out’. This may sound strange at first but when you really consider all the activities we do everyday we have been conditioned all throughout our lives to enter hypnotic trances.

Have you ever watched a movie and later realized that the only thing in your mind and field of vision was a 15 inch screen, obviously you can see the rest of the room, the people around you and even your cat and/or dog while focusing on the screen but the concentration and trance that is produced makes it seem as though the only thing that exists in the room is that little screen and the action it is producing.

Reading a book, we often get lost in the story and never realize what the ‘real world’ is doing around us. As you read you experience changing emotions, happiness, fear, suspense, sadness and tears. This interaction with the words and information being relayed to your mind alters your state of mind and becomes a hypnotic process in itself.

There is almost always the effect that the book you are reading will change either your mood, emotion, ideas and ultimately could change how you live your life, such is the objective of a hypnotist.

This emotional response is unconscious, the changing of your emotions, ideas and life, is one of the fundamental and guiding themes when learning Hypnosis. You have no choice in your emotions, you do not get to choose how you feel about a thing, it is simply a conscious response by your unconscious mind as a reaction to the suggestions you are presenting to yourself.

Hypnosis can and usually will result from any repetitive task you enjoy engaging in. Runners experience runners’ high – they alter their mind and experience a trance-like state while their body works they feel healthy and alive. Entering this altered state of mind is a form of self hypnotherapy which is a very powerful place to put yourself, and a powerful thing to be able to accomplish for yourself.
