Will Self Hypnosis Work For You? Find Out If You Can Be Hypnotized Now!

You've heard it before... Self hypnosis can change your life!

But will self hypnosis work for you?

Just about everyone has heard of hypnosis, and it carries a lot of mystique. many people fear it thinking they can be forced to do things they normally wouldn't do (which is not true), and others embrace hypnosis for all its benefits.

Are you curious? Would you like to know if you can be hypnotized?... Well, let's find out right now with this simple test. You can take the test right now sitting in front of your computer.

To take this test, either read through this article and take it from memory, or record yourself reading the article, and then take the test listening to your recording.

Sit comfortably with your arms hanging straight down by your sides... close your eyes... take a deep breath... and slowly exhale. Relax your whole body... from your toes, your feet, and your legs... to your chest, your arms,... and your neck and head.

Now imagine there is a metal, silver-colored bucket full of ice water next to your left hand; it has a 3-inch layer of ice cubes floating in the water. The outside of the bucket is dripping with condensation.

Now imagine your left hand is hanging down submerged in the ice water. Feel all the ice cubes pushing against your hand. The water is really... really cold, and it feels like the ice cubes are starting to freeze into a solid sheet of ice.

There's a tingling feeling under your fingernails that's moving up your fingers and hand towards your wrist. It is so cold, your hand is throbbing... and starting to feel numb. The numbness is really uncomfortable, so you lift your hand out of the ice water, and the bucket is replaced with a red plastic bucket of warm water.

Your hand is starting to feel much better; the throbbing has stopped, and the tingling is coming back as your hand thaws out and gets warmer and warmer. Now, your hand is warm and you can feel the warmth working its way up your arm making you feel comfortable all over.... Now open your eyes.

This test is called the "temperature suggestibility test".

Did your hand actually feel cold? Did it throb, tingle, or feel numb?... Was it uncomfortable?... Did your arm or the rest of you feel cold? Did you shiver?

How does your hand and arm feel now? Are they warm and comfortable?

If you experienced any of these effects, you can be hypnotized. The more real this experience felt to you, the deeper your hypnotic trance can be, and the better hypnotic suggestions will work for you.

Why does this test work?

There are fundamentally two abilities you need to be hypnotizable:

(1) You need to be able to relax and simultaneously focus your imagination?
(2) You need to be able to set aside the critical, logical nature of your conscious mind enough to communicate with your subconscious mind?

If you felt the effects of this simple test, then you have these abilities. The last thing you need for self hypnosis to work for you is a desire to change and improve your life.

WARNING: Not everyone will react to this test. If you had no reaction, it could be because you are reading the article instead of relaxing and hearing the suggestion, or it could be you need more time to relax and focus. If you did not react to this test, it does NOT mean you can not be hypnotized. It just means you need to try something another approach.
