We've all seen acts where people from an audience are "hypnotized" and
programmed to act like chickens or howl at the moon on command. But,
how is this done? And, what exactly is stage hypnosis.
Stage hypnosis can work in one of two ways, in general. It can either
be an actual true form of hypnosis, or stage hypnosis can be nothing
more than an act. What is actually being done in stage hypnosis will
depend on the performer him or herself. There are all kinds of
applications for stage hypnosis. They range from pure entertainment to
actual group or individual sessions to help people overcome problems
or addictions.
Those who practice stage hypnosis by using the real principles of
hypnosis will find they can have their acts go a little hit or miss.
The effects of stage hypnosis tend to only work on those who are very
receptive to the relaxation techniques employed. When this is the
case, however, stage hypnosis can offer some amazing results.
Stage hypnosis in its true form, whether it deals with an individual
subject or an entire audience, will generally involve a more
abbreviated form of real hypnosis. To make stage hypnosis work, the
hypnotist will first attempt to relax the audience or individual. Once
relaxation is achieved, the stage hypnosis act (or even seminar) will
proceed to helping a person clear his or her mind for suggestions on
the subconscious level. Once the mind is receptive, stage hypnosis
moves forward to those suggestions.
Although many thing of the chicken act when they think of stage
hypnosis, this may or may not be the main attraction for a stage
hypnotist. The reality is many who use stage hypnosis do so with an
attempt to perform mass or group hypnosis. This can be employed to
help motivate people to achieve their goals, break habits lose weight
and so on. In reality, stage hypnosis can be for entertainment and
even to help people better themselves.
In the pure entertainment form, stage hypnosis might be used in a set
up to entertain an audience. This form of stage hypnosis may or may
not employ actual techniques. The reason for a potential bluff is the
fact that not all people are open to hypnosis. It will generally only
work very well - especially in large crowd situations - when the
subject's mind is open to the prospect. When stage hypnosis is
performed using a "plant," it's done to ensure the act goes off
without a hitch.
Stage hypnosis has its entertainment side and its practical side. For
a room full of smokers, stage hypnosis might be a group effort to kick
the habit. For a dinner-time crowd, stage hypnosis might be nothing
more than a fun and entertaining
act.
