In reality, we naturally transition in and out of the hypnotic state every day when our brain waves slow down, leading us into the alpha or daydreaming state.

So here are few questions to ask yourself,

• Have you ever driven to a destination and upon arrival, wondered how you got there or if you stopped at all the red traffic lights?
• Have you ever become so involved in a book you were reading that the noises inside and outside the room seemed almost distant and when someone calls or talks to you it’s as if you don’t hear them at first?
• Have you ever watched a movie and become so engrossed in the story that when something jumps out and the character on screen jumps and screams you jump and scream at the same time? Or cry when they cry, or laugh when they laugh? Etc…
• Have you ever become so involved in a project for work or school or even a hobby that consumes you to the point where you lose track of time and when you become aware of the time you are astounded at the amount of time that has passed since you began.
• Have you ever sat in a meeting or conference or lecture and looked out the window or drifted into what feels like your own world not really thinking of anything in particular just so wonderfully comfortable in the moment that you almost lose track of what is happening in the room?

Should you have answered yes to any or all of the above questions then…

YOU HAVE BEEN IN A STATE OF HIGHTENED AWARENESS! Which is ultimately a HYPNOTIC STATE.
