Does anyone ever lose control under hypnosis?

 

No you do not lose control over your mind or body at any stage during hypnosis. Almost all clinical work is done at trance depth levels where you will be fully aware of your environment and will have full access to your conscious mind. You will remember everything once you are out of trance.

Mismanaged media such as films and other entertainers such as stage hypnotists who hypnotise volunteers for the purpose of entertainment only have created this erroneous belief that you lose control of your mind to the hypnotist. This is not at all true in the case of clinical hypnotherapy. Clinical hypnotherapists guide a person into hypnosis only to help and heal them thereby supporting their well being and spiritual growth.
