What is hypnotism?
Hypnotism is the professional practice of the hypnotic arts and sciences. Some people prefer to call it hypnotherapy, but I like the original word. All hypnosis is actually self-hypnosis. It is not something I do to a client; it is something a client does for him or herself. The self-hypnotic state is a state of relaxed concentration that anyone can enter naturally. Hypnotists provide their clients with instruction in how to enter this natural state more easily and effectively. Then, the hypnotist functions as a teacher and guide to show the client how to use the self-hypnotic state to overcome whatever problem is at issue.
According to the Webster’s New International Dictionary: “The induction of a state resembling sleep or somnambulism, which is called hypnosis or hypnotic sleep; also loosely — the induced state of hypnosis…” “There are degrees of hypnosis which have been characterized as lethargic, cataleptic and somnambulistic hypnosis and, again, simply as light and heavy hypnotic sleep, with corresponding variations in suggestibility.” Hypnotism can be divided into two categories: • Hetero-hypnosis, the state of sustained suggestibility is induced by a hypnotist. • Auto-hypnosis, the state is self induced. The results are both the same. Any suggestion that is carried out a period of time after hypnosis, is known as post-hypnotic suggestion.
