Do You Lose Control When You’re In Hypnosis?

Do you lose control when you’re in hypnosis?

When you’re in a session of hypnosis, there’s only one person who is always in control.

It’s always the person that’s being hypnotized. You are always in control.

This is why sometimes hypnosis doesn’t work.

In relaxations hypnosis, where they tell you to relax, go down a flight of stairs or enter a garden, your conscious mind knows that something’s going on. Your conscious mind can actually put on the brakes and stop the hypnosis.

Even when you’re in a a trance, you can stop it at any time. You can regain conscious control whenever you want.

Being in trance is like being at the movies. You give up critical thinking momentarily that this is just a movie, that it’s not real.

There’s a willing suspension of disbelief and you kind of get into the experience of a movie. It’s like you’re right there in the experience of the movie and you’ve let go of your critical thinking at every moment that this is only a movie.

You immerse yourself into that experience and just like hypnosis at any moment, you could go, “Hey this is just a stupid movie, this is not real.” And you can get up and leave the theater at any moment.

That’s exactly what hypnosis is like.

You can resist hypnosis, you resist those cues to go into hypnosis, and to relax which is a little different than what happens in Accelerated Hypnosis, but you get the point.

When you’re in a movie, you’re in a trance, you are in the reality of the movie. You’re in that reality of whatever is going on in the movie.

But you can leave the theater, take a break and get some snacks or leave altogether. That’s exactly what hypnosis is like. You’re the one that’s always in control.

You can always access your critical thinking when you’re in hypnosis. You can access it so well that you can actually prevent yourself from going into hypnosis, and connecting with all the answers, the resources, the unlimited possibilities that are waiting for you in your subconscious mind.
