RE: Hello Steemit - I Am Your First Hypnotist
How much of hypnotism is magic and how much is it power of suggestion? For example if someone is totally against hypnotism isnt it nearly impossible to hypnotize them?
It is not impossible if you were to use some of the methods like the televangelist Jerry Falwell used to use, but I would never use those methods in that manner. There is no magic at all, it is all the power of suggestion, the power of suggestion is so strong that if I told you in a state of somnambulism that my pen was a lit cigarette and you were willing to accept that suggestion, then pressed it to your skin, your skin would begin to bubble up in a way that is indistinguishable from a real burn.
I think I will skip that
