CAN ONLY A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF THE POPULATION EXPERIENCE HYPNOSIS?
Approximately 90 to 95 percent of the population can experience that state of total rest and relaxation, what some like to call hypnosis. Some will respond more rapidly, and more creatively, than others. Generally speaking, in an average group of people who are experiencing hypnosis for the first time, about one person in five will relax sufficiently deep enough (on their first attempt) to be able to be used on stage.
