Howdy! Mind if I ask why you didn’t give any of those recordings a try? There’s nothing even remotely dangerous about dabbling in hypnosis, you won’t be turned into a mindless slave overnight – alas, some might say.

So you asked how it all works and the most sincere answer I can give you is that, well, it doesn’t really work. Not at first at any rate, it’s basically just role-playing.

Hypnosis can become something much more powerful, but that takes a lot of hard work and perseverance from both the hypnotist and – crucially – the subject.
