People need to realize what hypnosis is and what it isn't.
It is using cadence to induce a state of heightened awareness and heightened amenability to suggestion.
In a sense it is a step-sibling of transcendental meditation.
I find myself in a strange demographic. I am utterly immune to hypnosis by others, but have learned effective techniques in self-hypnosis to de-stress and refresh. Basically focusing body part by body part and 'willing' stress or pain out of said part, kind of like wringing a washrag or furling a mat.
The self-hypnosis I can experience beneficially is mainly hyper concentration and visualization. Hypnosis by others I can't offer first hand information on, but it is limited to things the hypnosee would otherwise be amenable to.
