Does Hypnosis Really Work Or Not

By Michael Corrano


The idea of hypnosis has been quite a controversial one for many years already as many hypnotherapists have been doing it. In fact, many people have been cured of vices and addictions such as smoking, drugs, and drinking because of this. However, the big question that still remains is does hypnosis really work on people.

Now if one would want to know whether this thing would actually work or not, he has to know all about it first. Now for those who do not know about it, basically it is an art that puts certain messages into the heads of people in order for them to follow those messages. Now it is actually a way to control the mind of a person.

Now the thing about hypnosis is that it is possible for a person to not know if he is hypnotized. Now people who know they are being hypnotized have most likely went into the office of a hypnotherapist and asked him for help. Now there are ways to use subliminal messages in order to put people into a hypnotic state without them knowing.

The most famous form of hypnotism would actually be the one where a hypnotist would be swinging a pendulum in front of the eyes of a person to put him into a trance. From there, he will be asking that person to do some commands which the person will follow when he snaps out of the trance. After that, the person will feel fully awake and it will be as if he would want to perform that command himself.

Now in the Eastern world, being in a trances also equates to being in a meditative state. There is actually something known as self hypnosis which is actually what many meditation experts do in order to clear their heads and make their lives more positive. Now these meditation experts would actually put themselves in a trance and try to suggest messages to their own brains.

Now the easiest type would be the one wherein the person is actually aware that he is being hypnotized and actually wants it. This means that the person actually wants someone to change how he thinks. Of course it is very important that the person being hypnotized is very open minded and not a skeptic otherwise it might not work.

Basically, in order for it to work, the person being hypnotized first has to be willing. Also, he has to be able to visualize things in his brain and have a rather good imagination. He also has to know how to relax and not let his brain shut down suggestions.
