Nope and never would be, I don't think. I did watch a guy hypnotise a group of people at the GC show a few weeks back and it was funny, but also interesting in how differently people 'succumbed' One guy went into such a deep sleep he couldn't do anything whilst others didn't go under at all.

Did you do it for fun or for health reasons?

Health. I'm not sure if it's working or not though. I don't fancy the putting my knickers on my head and pretending I'm a chicken stuff!!No Way!:p

I was at a nightclub in Bermuda many years ago and the head act was Martin St James. He hypnotised several of us on stage and off we went back to our tables. When the band played a certain tune.............. we did the craziest of things............ brought the house down.

He later came up to us individually.............. put us to sleep with a click of his fingers............. and told us we would not remember anything.

At work the next day everyone was coming up to me saying how much they had enjoyed the show............... and how funny I was......... I didn't even remember being at the club?

I thought it was a load of old rubbish prior to that night............... but it really does work.

A few years back I was in constant pain following a car accident. I had to see a pain specialist in South Perth and his treatment including putting me to sleep by hypnosis................. and it worked............. the pain diminished.

Can you remember anything about it? Did they film it for you?
A friend of mine was hypnotised and they recorded it for her, so she would believe the actual events that followed.

I wasn't under that deep because it was my first time. He said after a couple of times I'll go deeper and probably won't remember a thing.
He made my arm float into the air and I waved a finger to agree with what he was telling me but at the same time I was off in a dream that I was swimming underwater?? I can't remember what he said to me but it appears to be working tho I'm a wee bit sceptical that I'm not consciously doing it.

I did a similar course a while back also, and practiced as a hypnotherapist for a couple of years previous to coming out to Oz. So yes I have been hypnotised.

having done a course, the way we use to put people 'under', takes a bit of time, and if the the 'patient' is resistent to suggestion, it does not work!
really don't no how stage hypnotist's 'SEEM' to be able to click their fingers and hypnotize some one. :confused:

Hi Glasgowlass

Are you cured?

From your post you suggest you feel better; you’ve had no thoughts of whatever it was that was ailing you. Which I’m glad to hear.

Often, for the type of issues that people seek help with, ‘feeling’ cured and ‘being’ cured are one and the same. I expect you feel different now to how you felt last week, previous to your visit, which is something you may be surprised about. There’s always a tendency for the conscious, logical mind to try and pick at and analyse something it can’t quite get to grips with; dissecting things into smaller and smaller pieces, to no end at all.

So, are you cured?

Andy
