Hypnosis Education: Do you know what hypnosis is?
Posted by: Joshua Houghton in Hypnosis, Hypnosis Research, Daily Life, Hypnosis Facts, Hypnosis Education, Hypnosis ArticlesHello Everyone
Today has been a pretty slow day overall. I’m just sitting here in front my computer trying to think of the next step to take with this blog. As I was sitting here an idea came to me, which I think would benefit everyone. So I have decided to share that idea with all of you.
One of the biggest problems facing the profession of hypnosis is that the general public has been miseducated. Many people have been led to believe that the stuff seen in the movies and other media are the truth when it comes to hypnosis. In my opinion it’s because of the public not being educated that the majority of our society believes the rumors and myths about hypnosis. I believe that it is time to educate the public and let the truth be known. My goal with this articles and others to come is to lay the fears, rumors and myth’s about this wonderful profession to rest.
The first part of this series is dedicated to letting the world know that hypnosis is NOT magic or evil in any way. The reason so many people think hypnosis is a form of magic is because of lack of understanding and knowledge about what we do. People see us yell “sleep” and the next thing you know the person has dropped into some type of magical trance where we control them. Honestly, this couldn’t be further from the truth and whenever I hear this I just want to laugh. The honest truth is that if I controlled people I wouldn’t be writing this blog. I would be hypnotizing people to give me money and everything else, but that isn’t how hypnotism works.
