You are spot on in your comments. I was unable to get into trance for years until I tried a whisper hypnosis video. I think that created the focus needed to explore things further. Now I am much more suggestible and I love deep trances. I look for hypnotists with great voices first and their ability to control the pace of the trance second. One of the reasons I like this channel.

I want to be hypnotised. But I find it hard to relax or be zoned out.

This was really good always want to make people feel more comfortable with it you explained it very well

I can't get hypnotized: but then I watch one of your videos and ALWAYS end up asleep , and can't remember what happened..

i cant shut my brain up it just keeps yapping when im trying to relax and focus

While everyone (or nearly everyone) can be hypnotized, the person has to be willing. As the saying goes, all hypnosis is self-hypnosis. But some, including myself, do find it hard to simply let go and relax.

Helping us in order to better Help us. How can one be so amazing. :D

Working on 1K Jo, great job!

Not only are you a great hypnotist, you do a great job of explaining hypnosis. Maybe the two are related! Also, first!

What medications have an impact on hypnotic state?

I think for me it’s cuz I can’t trust anyone

I’m trained in hypnotherapy, unfortunately I’m one that can’t. Heard all the reason why and doesn’t apply to me. Instant induction doesn’t work on me either Avid meditator too.

I have been trying for a long time and not to be negative or anything but this isn’t helpful I am having trouble with the not over thinking part cus you can’t exactly tell your mind to shut up so any suggestions then?

Hey, but we eventually found our evil hypno-witch! :-P Seriously, most of the time people who can't get hypnotized can do well if you make them do "visualization experiments", "relaxation exercices", and other rephrasing way to make the same hypnotic effects. So all the clichés are really important in how people allow themselves to let go. Plus, when they say 20% of the population can't get hypnotized...uhm...usually it's related to the definition of hypnosis: is it supposed to be a standardized induction? A recorded one, maybe? The Stanford scale? There are some people who can be completely into hypnosis without being relaxed (as in your examples, when you are driving), some are not very open in some sensory system but fully receptive in another, not to say that very often if you want to obtain a result in two different subjects you need to use two different wordings, maybe a very direct one with A and a metaphorical one with B...let's say it's very complicated! :) And finally, trust. Even if the hypnotist is not in control as movies show, they are the one leading the session (even in a simple scenario of plain relaxation, the hypnotist is awake while the subject is "asleep"; or there's no chemistry between the two; or the subject can feel more at ease with a male hypnotist other than a female one or viceversa; or...). Some people are used to trust people very easily, some have a much higher control, so to achieve the same results you need first to build the trust and only then the suggestions can have a hope to work... And motivation, and... :)

I have adhd and everytime I try hypnosis, it doesn’t work. 😢

Wait, what? "Its estimated 20% are not hypnotize able, but if you are normal..." You just said 1/5 people. That's by definition very normal???
