Can strong-minded people be hypnotised?
Yes, in fact people who have the ability to focus their minds strongly find it particularly easy to achieve a state of hypnosis. People misunderstand hypnosis, thinking it means giving control of your mind to another person, which is not true. Hypnosis is a skill that involves focusing your mind and the more you practice, the better you become. The majority of people can learn how to do this and guidance from a hypnotherapist makes it easier to learn.
