HYPNOSIS
In the 18th century James Braid (1795-1860) coined the
word HYPNOSIS
after the Greek god HYPNOS ,
meaning sleep.
He soon discovered that hypnosis was not a state of
sleep but a state of focusing and heightened awareness
and tried (unsuccessfully) to change the
word to
monoidism but the word
Hypnosis had already caught on.
As Hypnosis began to receive serious recognition and could be explained
in a more rational manner, it began to gain acceptance and not looked
upon as being bizarre. Indeed the hypnotic state is now recognised
worldwide as a highly effective method for behavioural modification.
However, many
people find the word 'trance'
scary, and consider only weak-willed people can 'go under or be put out'.
This is
not the case, in actual fact the more intelligent a person is,
then the
easier it is for them to enter hypnosis.
A person entering
the state of hypnosis feels total relaxation, and upon leaving
this natural state they
are wonderfully calm, extremely relaxed and are never sceptical of
hypnosis again.
