Many people have an impression of what they think hypnosis is about and how it's done based on what they've seen through television shows and movies. Being &quo;hypnotized&quo; does not mean that you are out of or handing over control. On the contrary, while in a proper hypnotic state you become hyper aware and are in complete control throughout the entire process. To clarify:

• You WILL remain completely alert
• You will not stay stuck in hypnosis
• You will not lose your memory
• You WILL experience deep relaxation
• You will not lose control of yourself or thoughts
• You will not go into a mental void
• You will not do anything against your will or better judgment
• You WILL have total and complete control of your own thoughts throughout the entire process
