Hypnosis question

[hopalong]

What would happen if during a hypnosis show and someone is under hypnosis and the hypnosist drops dead, what would happen to the person under hypnosis?

Someone else would hypnotise them into believing that they weren't hypnotised in the first place.

I've been hypnotised. The hypnotist puts the particicapents into state of relaxation and tells them if anything out of the ordinary occurs or,in a case of danger they will automatically "Wake up" and be relaxed and alert.

FINA I'm Deeply intrested in hypnotics, however ive found it extremly hard to find first hand information and experiences. As you have been hypnotize can you please jus briefly describe what stages you are put through. Thanks

Hi all

I am a hypnotherapist and can quite confidently tell you that if the hypnotist dies whilst the client is under hypnosis they will simply fall asleep and wake up as per normal as hypnosis is simply a deep state of relaxation. Hope this helps the worriers!

Dear InfoFreak

Regarding your q about the stages of hypnosis. Although there are various ways to induce hypnosis (eg. rapid or progressive) I shall briefly explain how I get my clients "under". The client will be made to sit or lie comfortably and remove all restricting articles. Then I shall talk them through a relaxed breathing technique which calms them and puts them in the right frame of mind for deeper relaxation. Then I talk them through a full body progressive relaxation where they relax every part of the body in turn resulting in complete physical relaxation. By this time most of my clients are either already hypnotised or close to it. Then I deepen the state by suggesting relaxing visualisations. And you continue along these lines until you can recognise the the "symptoms" of hypnosis. When they are in a deep state of relaxation (hypnotised) I either continue with therapy (eg.smokers or weight loss or grief) or past life regression therapy which is awesomely fascinating. When the therapy is concluded I shall ask the client whether they are ready to return and upon affirmation I shall count them up and they "awaken" feeling very relaxed albeit sometimes a little confused but with complete memory of the whole experience. As you can see I only act as a guide to assist the client in relaxing themselves. Hope this helps as it definitely is first hand information!

Some years ago a friend of mine was still doing 'strange ' things three days after he had been hypnotised. However it did wear off after another couple of days.
