What is Hypnosis?

Hypnosis is a state of mind in which suggestions are acted upon more powerfully than is possible under normal conditions. Consciously, you may not know why or how you are feeling or behaving a certain way, however, subconsciously you do. During hypnosis, the body and conscious mind are in a relaxed neutral state while the subconscious mind remains awake and receptive to suggestion.

You will know everything that is going on around you. While  under hypnosis, you will not say or do anything that is against your ethical or moral principals. Contrary to what most people believe, a person under hypnosis need not fall asleep or lose touch with their surroundings. He or she is often able to recall everything that has happened during the session.
