Hypnosis is the bypass of critical thinking.

For instance if I were to tell you that you feel great, your critical thinking might say “No I don't! And how do you know how I am feeling.” But in a hypnotic state the suggestion has the opportunity to bypass that Negative Nancy and you can accept that you really are feeling great.

States of Consciousness:

Waking State Light Medium Somnambulism Esdaile State (Coma State) Ultra Height Ultra Depth

Below is a brief description of each state.

Waking State This is your normal state of consciousness. Light and Medium States Both of these states are not very useful, but direct suggestion can be achieved. Somnambulism This is the working state of hypnosis and if a client can not achieve somnambulism out of fear or they are just unwilling, I give them their money back and send them on their way. With somnambulism you can achieve regression, chair therapy, direct suggestions, amnesia and analgesics. Esdaile State (Coma State) This is a fun state to be in, you are in complete bliss and you are so unaware of your body that you will hold whatever crazy pose that you are put in for however long you remain in the state. The Esdaile state is good to use on chronic pain sufferers to show them how hypnosis can eliminate pain, I then bring them into Somnambulism to give them the suggestions to remove their discomfort at will. The Esdaile State was nicknamed the Coma State because it feels so good that people would refuse to leave it. Ultra Height This is the newest state to be discovered and it is amazing, the hypnotist gets you there and lets you and (Someone or something - this is highly debated) do the work together, while the hypnotist sits back and watches. This state also can heal the body and many hypnotists prefer this state because it is so easy to use. Ultra Depth This State has around a 17 minute delay, so when the hypnotist tells you to open your eyes, he may end up falling asleep, while waiting for you to take your sweet time lifting those lids. When someone achieves Ultra Depth, their body turns blue and enters something like a suspended animation, while rapidly healing itself. When it was first discovered on a young girl the hypnotists thought he killed her and was in the process of calling the police when she emerged. This state is great for anyone who needs rapid healing.
