| OVER the years, hypnosis has picked up all sorts of weird associations
from stage hypnotists, the media and superstition. This is a great
shame, because in reality, hypnosis is your single most effective
tool for change. Hypnosis is your birthright, and you should know
how to use it so it doesn't use you. Here we dispel the biggest hypnosis
myths.
Hypnosis Myth 1) All hypnosis is the same
As with anything, hypnosis can be good, bad or indifferent.
The most common is old-style authoritarian hypnosis of the type "You
are getting sleepy, you are feeling confident". Unsurprisingly,
this sort of hypnosis doesn't work well with many people. Good
hypnosis uses subtle psychological principles and advanced communication
patterns.
It's like the difference between a football coach who thinks
you'll perform best if he yells at you, compared with the more
elegant style of a great leader who knows that to get the best
from his people, he needs to understand motivation, to cajole,
encourage and reward.

Hypnosis Myth 2) Subliminals work
Subliminals are words that you can't hear. Common sense says
they shouldn't work, and there's no research proving that they
do.
Hypnosis Myth 3) Some people can't be hypnotized
The only reason you can't be hypnotized is if you are incapable
of paying attention due to extremely low IQ or brain damage.
That's not to say that every hypnotist can hypnotize you however.
The more flexible the hypnotist, the more effective she will
be with the largest number of people.
Hypnosis Myth 4) Hypnosis is something weird that other
people do to you
If you couldn't go into hypnosis, you wouldn't be able to sleep,
to learn, or get nervous through 'negative self hypnosis'. (You
know when you imagine things going wrong and it makes you feel
anxious? Well that's self hypnosis!)
Hypnosis is simply a deliberate utilization of the REM (Rapid
Eye Movement) or dream state. We're not giving people medication
here – if it wasn't a natural ability, hypnosis wouldn't work!
Hypnosis Myth 5) You lose control in hypnosis
Crazy news stories, stage hypnotists and gossip have created
the illusion that you lose control in hypnosis. In fact, when
hypnotized, you are relaxed and focused – and able to choose
to get up and walk away at any time. You choose to give your
attention to the hypnotist, and you can withdraw it at any time.
If you have been scared of hypnosis in the past, this article
has hopefully convinced you to at least give it a try. But remember,
