Hypnosis is simply a special kind of focused attention/absorption combined with imagination/suggestion.
There is a lot of misinformation and hype about hypnosis. The terms "hypnosis" and "trance" themselves are off-putting and conjure up ideas of mind control, spaciness, and silly behavior.
Hypnosis, like the human mind, is neither good or bad. It is simply a naturally occurring brain function that until recently has been poorly understood.
My mission is to provide accurate and helpful knowledge to anyone who wants it about how to positively use this natural mental ability (that you are utilizing whether you know it or not) for constructive, desirable, and beneficial results/outcomes.
The modified Tellegen Absorption Scale will tell you something about "hypnotizabiity" or what is meant by "special focused attention." The information about mind-body communication may help you experience that communication for yourself. And there is a lot of factual, accurate information about the experience of hypnosis that you may find interesting.
Of course the best way to discover hypnosis is through your own personal experience, initially assisted by a well-trained clinician. Learning how to utilize this ability is similar to learning yoga, for example. You can do it on your own--after all, all hypnosis is 'self-hypnosis.' However, it is helpful to have someone who can help you refine your technical ability and get the most positive benefit from your practice.
