Have You Ever Been Hypnotized?  

Excuse me? please explain... thank you.

u've been hypnotized or not?

Please do yourself a favor and research the topic. Just because I went to a hypnotist does NOT mean I am still hypnotized. There is more to this than you probably realize.

Try Google..

NOBODY is controlling my mind except for myself. I chose to go to the hypnotist and he explained everything in detail as to what was going to happen. The only willpower I wanted weakened is the fact that I eat too many sweets and want to lose weight. If you choose not to have it done, that's great..it's a personal choice. I would definitly do it again if I had the chance.

I do not mean any disrespect, but there are a few things that you should know about hypnosis before giving out advice on the subject. First, hypnosis does not even work with the will, therefore it cannot weaken your willpower. Hypnosis works with the imagination and the subconscious. Nobody can change your will. Even in a totally unconscious state of hypnosis, your mind will only accept those suggestions that are within your moral boundaries, or within your personality to do. It CANNOT make you do anything you do not want to do.
Second, if you have ever felt "spaced out," or drove home in deep thought and didn't remember the drive, or have been so into reading a book or watching a movie that you don't even hear someone calling your name...you have been hypnotized. Hypnosis has never been proven to have an undesirable effect on the mind.
A hypnotist does not control a person's mind. That is a very common misconception. If you really want to know what hypnosis is and what it isn't, there are many books on the subject...I suggest you read up on the subject, especia;y if you are going to be giving advice about it.
It is these kinds of misconceptions and misinformation that makes people unnecessarily afraid of hypnosis.
Yes, self hypnosis is a good thing, but some people do not have the ability to focus that it takes for it to be effective, so a session or two with a hypnotherapist can help a person learn effective self hypnosis.
ALL hypnosis is self hypnosis anyway :)

Maybe you should do some research on the subject.....Being hypnotized has nothing to do with my post....... Google works really well.

Well like I said, it remains to be seen if it actually works for me or not. I am sure going to give it my best. We have his CD's too that we can listen to to help along the way.

Thank you for BR Wyldrose! Hope you have a wonderful day! Joy

LOL..It wasn't like that at all. We were all in the same room in a group setting and he hypnotized us all at the same time. It has nothing to do with bravery. Nobody was entertaining anybody. He put us all under and told us how we can control our eating, smoking, etc. It was all legit and very informative.

Well I am glad to hear that!! Hope it works! Keep us informed!
