Hypnosis is a state in which conscious sleep is induced. The process of hypnosis involves a hypnotist and a subject (a person on whom hypnosis is performed). The primary requirement for hypnosis is it must be accepted by the subject. And then, under the effect of Hypnosis, the subject is allegedly more recipient to suggestions and has greater access to his or her memories and emotions.
In a nutshell, hypnosis is the sleep of the nervous system. So, there is a decrease in the rate of respiration and a decrease in blood circulation, thus, sluggish brain waves. Under normal consciousness, the brain waves are at the Beta wave level. However, with hypnosis, brain waves slow down to alpha waves than to theta waves. Delta waves are brain waves possible in children, & generally, no adult can experience the slowing down to delta wave level.
The use of hypnosis has been applied from the clinic to the classroom and police station to any public place. The characteristics of hypnosis are deep concentration and great relaxation. Hypnosis has a strange reputation. Freud, the father of repression, earlier used to practice hypnosis in therapy. He then stopped the use of hypnosis. However, hypnosis is still popular. And it is safe.
Hypnosis can be useful in addictions, pain relief, weight control, fear, quit smoking. However, the success of hypnosis depends greatly on the acceptance of the subject. Under the effect of hypnosis, the subject gets accessibility to his unconscious and subconscious mind, repressed memories even past life memories. There are lots of misconceptions regarding hypnosis. It is considered as ‘Black Magic’ by some people. Science simply does not accept it. But, hypnosis exists.
