Hypnotism has interested me for the longest. Whether it be increased state of suggestibility or the blatant puppeteering of human beings or a myth made by magicians.
Where can hypnotism have a healthy place in modern day society? The concept really lingers on me. I used to participate in following these series of youtube videos to get hypnotized but I must've built a resistance to the recordings because they no longer put me anywhere near trance.
Studying hypnotism, I found out that it was used as a type of therapy. But what is therapeutic about it? I would assume its effectiveness stems from whatever the hypnotist was able to guide you through, like commanding someone to laugh instead of cry when they are set off by a trigger, but from my experience, the real relief comes from not being in control. It's like an out of body experience except you are on a leash that grows in length as you comply. There is nothing but a dark blanket of peace that wraps you up in a burrito like hug. And when it is over, it is the same relief you get from stretching and popping your back.
Not sure where this was going, but I am somewhat passionate about this topic,its depiction, its application. I want to talk about any and everything hypno!
