Is hypnosis safe?
Yes, hypnosis is completely safe when practiced by a trained professional. It is a natural state of mind that you enter and exit freely, much like daydreaming. You remain in control the entire time.

Can I be hypnotized against my will?
No, hypnosis requires your willingness and cooperation. You cannot be forced into hypnosis or made to do anything against your values or beliefs.

What does hypnosis feel like?
Experiences vary, but most people describe hypnosis as deeply relaxing and peaceful. You may feel light or heavy, and your mind may drift while still being aware of your surroundings.

Will I lose control during hypnosis?

Can hypnosis help me quit smoking, lose weight, or reduce stress?

How many hypnosis sessions will I need?
