What is hypnosis? The truth from the scientific point of view, a denial of stereotypes
Hello, many people suspiciously belong to hypnosis practice, for one half it something the strange, silly and invented, people actors there, and all experiences only the imagination, they pass by, refuse to study this fact and ignore a scientific explanation, for other people hypnosis is more terrible than mysticism! They see in the hypnotist of the terrible and imperious magician who will power can subordinate you to the monitoring and do with you everything that wants!
Here they are two extremes the giving rise various delusions, myths and stereotypes.
To pleasure there are still adequate people studying hypnosis from his real, scientific and psychological point of view, let's refute the principal stereotypes, and on their background we will tell what is "hypnosis":
- Feeble and uncertain people give in to hypnosis, the strong people don't give in to hypnosis. - It is, probably, the most principal and silliest stereotype, now let me tell you the truth based on medical researches.
Actually, feeble and uncertain people just also don't give in to hypnosis! They badly control the consciousness and the attention, and their suspiciousness permanently hinders their life, not to mention a hypnosis session! Here the real fact - the strong, confident, active and positive people best of all give in to hypnosis! Why? Because hypnosis is some kind of "meditation" where the trust and desire, this main thing is necessary.
There is nothing difficult, but if you can't trust yourself, to the hypnotist and to control simple actions, then it will be difficult for you.
- The magician, the person possessing a magnetism and special talent can only be the hypnotist!
Generally all these stereotypes seem quite logical and truthful, but nevertheless and here we meet lie and ignorance, process of hypnosis this quite scientific phenomenon (but scientific doesn't mean common and uninteresting), the mechanism consists that the body sinks into a full-fledged sleep, and the consciousness saves a contango (communication) with the hypnotist, and in this status to the person access to subconsciousness, memory, creative open spaces, etc. so it is possible to call hypnosis a conscious dream because the person literally sleeps therefore hypnosis also is useful opens, a couple of hours of a hypnotic dream can give rest as in a night!
And to dip the person in hypnosis, you don't need to be a magician, you only need to know a little psychology and biology, to understand as there take place processes and just to help the person to fall asleep, having saved "contango"
- Hypnosis is a nonsense, hallucinations!
To be honest, that take textbooks in biology and physics, and you will find out that our life the same hallucination, but is already talk of a separate subject, and in fact, in hypnosis you plunge into the inner world, into subconsciousness and other spheres, you perceive completely real things, those things which live in you (and not only), you can interact with them and it will influence definitely you! Of course there not all such literal as in common, physical reality, but why to us these restrictions?
The interesting fact - there were experiences when people amputated extremities or performed operations without anesthesia, only using hypnosis (at the time of war such experiences were widespread) and what you think? In most cases, the patient didn't feel pain at all, operation passed quietly, quickly and easily, it is a lot of different and surprising examples, hypnosis can be used both at the physical layer, and at the most thin psychological levels!
Mystical hypnosis is already separate subject which to be honest, I didn't study yet, is stories much as Roma steal money using hypnosis or as Wolf Messing could influence all around! From the point of view of science "violent hypnosis" is possible as for example snakes hypnotize frogs that to eat them, this hypnosis is based on fear, but it is possible to assume that there are also other, more deep forms of third-party hypnosis, but let's master so far and classical! :)
I thank you for attention, I wish success
