"Who's
going to be hypnotized?" "What will they do?"
"Can I be hypnotized?"
Volunteers are invited from the audience and
quickly fill the 20 chairs on stage. After simple
instructions, they are guided into a relaxing
state of hypnosis. The audience watches in amazement.
Soon the room is filled with non-stop laughter
as the volunteers become the stars of the show!
Is this safe?
Since hypnosis in not mind control, it is perfectly
safe. The hypnotist does not have any special
powers over a subject, he serves only as a guide
for someone to hypnotize themselves. Jon Simon
