Hypnosis is a natural state of mind with special identifying characteristics as follows:

• An extraordinary quality of mental, physical and emotional relaxation. (In fact, some people say they’re more relaxed in hypnosis than any other time!)

• There is an ease in following suggested behavior. The subject feels like following the hypnotist’s instructions, directions, and suggestions, except those that generate conflict with the subject’s values; i.e. character attitudes, religious beliefs and moral principles.

• The entire system becomes self-regulating as the state of hypnosis brings the central nervous system into complete balance.

• Heightened and selective sensitivity to stimuli perceived by the five physical senses and the basic perceptions.

• Immediate lowering of psychic defenses, allowing old patterns to be broken and new patterns to be created.

• Lack of response to irrelevant, external stimuli.
