Underground Hypnosis carries a somewhat cloudy rep, but as with similar forms of conversational hypnosis it can be a source of real help. Employed to help treat emotional, mental, and physical complaints as well as a potent communication strategy, this type of mind control uses the subject’s unconscious mind to make them do what you prefer. You can add help to vanquish various addictions to any half remembered frat-party comic high jinks. We can accept that what you’ve heard might sound slightly unsettling, but experienced practitioners know precisely what to do and produce virtually no issues. And now we turn to the Underground Hypnosis movement, alongside comparable forms of conversational hypnosis, and look at the basics; induction into trance. The depth of the trance state induced is influenced by many aspects, chief among them hypnotist’s ability, personality, as well as emotional status. Unconsciously, as you begin a light trance, certain smaller muscles will “untense”. An urge to doze off comes to the fore at this point, and other muscles unwinding may cause their eyes to gradually close. You’ll watch shoulders slump as a deeper trance state engulfs them in comparatively short order.

With a little more work, the person being hypnotized slides deep enough into their trance that he or she only hears and sees whoever has hypnotized them. Hypnotic suggestion can be explored from this point on, as the subconscious is now open to influence. The trance state can deepen more to the point where the subject becomes capable of forgetting certain concepts if asked.

Past that lies hallucination and similar altered perceptions, and should you press on, you’ll ultimately establish a state like that experienced when undergoing general anesthetic. Subjects could undergo a medical procedure in this state without no need for anesthesia.

We shouldn’t need to point out that you won’t require that depth, and conversational hypnosis is more than enough for the more practical levels. For most purposes, the initial strata we covered are more than sufficient.

We feel we ought to point out that the power to do this can be taught to anybody who looks into Underground Hypnosis. Would this take long, you might ask? Not long — some swift studying, some time to practice the tricks involved, and you’ll soon find you’ll have a remarkable party piece. So why are you worried? No reason to be nervous at all.
