  1. Hypnotism is Mind Control. This is probably one of the most popular myths about hypnosis therapy, reinforced by dozens of movie villains throughout the years. It also couldn’t be further from the truth. Many people think of hypnosis therapy as a surrender of their will power, and that hypnosis will leave them vulnerable to external influence or mind control.

The state of consciousness directly preceding sleep is comparable to clinical hypnosis therapy. Therefore, everyone is capable of being hypnotized. If you think about it, even worry is a form of hypnosis – a negative form, but still. *you have one example, is there another we should mention?  Worry is a natural but negative form of hypnosis.
