In the hypnotic state, you are totally awake, highly focussed, mentally alert and in control

In the normal wakeful state we are aware of many things simultaneously.

Hypnosis is a slightly altered state of mind where our focus narrows to one specific thing and becomes very intense, to the extent that we are still aware of the environment in the background, e.g. sounds, but it doesn’t distract us.

It is a natural phenomenon we experience in our daily lives whenever we focus intensely, such as performing a demanding task at work, when engrossed in reading a book, watching a movie, painting, daydreaming, writing an exam, etc.

All hypnosis is self-hypnosis. You are always in control. Nobody can force you to be hypnotised. You have to comply with the suggestions and allow it to happen to you.

Hypnosis is not sleep; you are totally awake, mentally more alert and your body relaxed. Your brain is highly suggestible to positive suggestions.
