Is the hypnotized person completely under the control of the hypnotherapist?
At no time is the hypnotized person under the complete control of the hypnotherapist. In fact, the subconscious mind will automatically reject any suggestion that is against the persons’s moral code, against the law of survival, or that is not beneficial for that person. The person always exercises the option to reject any suggestion that is given in the state of hypnosis. In the state of hypnosis, no one can be made to do anything that they have no desire to do.
