I think I was hypnotized to a certain degree but fell out of it due to resistance. It was in a group setting for entertainment. There was a point where the hypnototist told us to do some drawing from when we were younger and I automatically started to draw like I was back in grade school. That's what convinced me that I was partially hypnotized. The shit works. I've also seen it done to others etc... You have to be willing to trust and let your guard down in order for it to happen.
The thing that perplexes me is past life regression during hypnosis. I don't know if any of you have ever observed this but some people have been hypnotized and were told to go back to their previous life time. They speak of details etc... that only this person would know etc... Some freaky/unexplained things.

I would prefer those means instead of the conventional way to get hypnotized i.e. swinging pocketwatch. Ha ha.
tried it, waste of money. i would need to be in a group environment. The broad was looooopppppyyyyyyyyyyyy. I still chew, lol! She recorded it, put it on cd and told me not to listen to it while I was driving. yeah no shit, I'd be laughing my ass off at how stupid she sounded.

I was hypnotized in a group setting twice and have done some self hypnosis a few times. It was never like those hoaky stage acts. It is like a very deep relaxation which allows you to get a little deeper into your head as far as what you can remember, but also allows you to be more free creatively. This is why I have a problem with using some of the things that people come up with under hypnosis. I think that people are susceptible to false memories under hypnosis.

Really, I will have to read that sometime.Island Son said:
Basically, when you are under hypnosis, you know what you are doing, and you don't do things against your will. All those hoaky stage shows just get the people to relax and it appeals to the ham in them to do the naughty things, cluck like a chicken, etc. Simple as that. They know what they are doing and choose to participate.

But what you're missing here is that it is on a subconscious level. "They know what they are doing" is broad. I don't think anyone (at least those with SOME thought capabilities) believe hypnosis makes people do things agaisnt their will. But tapping into the subconscious can almost seem/feel like it's something "unnatural" or even against that person's will cause most people are that disconnected from that part of their mind

Have you ever been hypnotized? It isn't as profound as you may think.KillahBee said:

Well, if you tell me that you feel as if you are not in control of free will under hypnosis, I call BS, and that is it. Disagree all you wish. I just don't buy it.KillahBee said:

I mean that. I also know from my own experience that you are aware of what you are doing the entire time that you are under. You have the immediate ability to decide. If something is going down that you don't like you can bring yourself right up and out of hypnosis.

Yeah, well there are different levels of trance. For the most part you're right.HeatherRae said:
Here's a pretty simple explanation of it, I could talk about this all night lol. oh it all started with Mesmer, where is where the world "mesmerized" came from! and Erickson is the master! I've hypnotized quite a few folks. Shock inductions are fun too and faster.
----------------------
Hypnosis does not control the unconscious -- but it does allow a sort of communication with it. Hypnosis does not "over-ride" the individual's personality, ethics or awareness, either. Though it is often the case that the experience of hypnosis includes some degree of memory lapse for parts of the experience -- this is experienced as feeling like you might have been asleep -- not being able to fully remember every moment during the hypnotic experience is related to interference with the memory encoding process. Memory lapses are not due to a loss of attentiveness. At all times there is a part of the hypnotized individual's mental faculties which is unaffected, observing everything going on, and able to break out of the trance state instantly if deemed necessary. This is called "the hidden observer."
