Myth

I will lose consciousness and not remember what happened at all.

Fact

Some individuals may drift off, but a lot of the time you are able to recall most of the session just like you would a conversation.

Myth

You can get stuck in hypnosis and not come out of trance.

Fact

Since hypnosis is a natural state and you have to be willing to be hypnotized, it is impossible to get 'stuck' in hypnosis. Any point you want to come out of hypnosis you can.

Myth

I have to surrender my will to the hypnotist, and I will not be in control of myself.

Fact

Surrendering to the process is helpful, but surrendering to the hypnotist is not necessary as the client is always capable in making all the decisions

Myth

I will reveal my deepest darkest secrets while hypnotized, or share things I would not want to share with my hypnotist.

Fact

While in hypnosis people can and say only the things that you want to share. In hypnosis a client can stray away from the truth just as easily as anything that you are uncomfortable sharing.

Myth

Those who can be hypnotized are weak minded.

Fact

The best clients tend to be able to have great concentration, are open minded, and have a great imagination. Those who have these qualities tend to be very intellectual.
