The most basic level of trance is simply closing
the eyes. This is not considered to be a very
deep level of trance at all and has a score of zero.

They aren’t really in a trance at all and aren’t
really responding “involuntarily” to the
suggestions implanted by a stage hypnotist.
![Page 5: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
All they’re really doing is giving themselves the
excuse to act like a fool in public and do things they would never normally do
otherwise.
![Page 6: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The first real level of hypnotic trance is moving
or lowering the hand in response to cues from the therapist guiding the client
through the stages of trance.
![Page 7: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
![Page 8: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
According to one susceptibility scale, this
level is preceded by physical signs of drowsiness
– swaying and the like.
![Page 9: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
However, these can only be seen if the subject is in the right starting position – it’s hard to sway if you’re lying
down on a couch.
![Page 10: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The next level is either gauged by the inability to
move one arm or the patient moving his/her
hands apart in response to cues from the therapist.
![Page 11: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
After these early levels (with scores of 1 or 2) come the
deeper ones where the mind influences the
experiences of the body.
![Page 12: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
![Page 13: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
In a medium-deep trance, the subject experiences
hallucinations in response to cues from the therapist – they
can perceive that a fly or a mosquito is in the room near
them, and their brain produces the auditory signals telling them that the insect is
buzzing nearby.
![Page 14: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
![Page 15: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
After the hallucination stage comes the level of
trance where age regression is possible, where the brain
accesses memory and relives it.
![Page 16: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
A hypnotherapist can test if the subject is at the
threshold of the deepest levels of trance when he or she passes the smell test.
![Page 17: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
![Page 18: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
A strong-smelling substance is held under the nose, but
if the trance is deep enough, the subject cannot
smell it.
![Page 19: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Another threshold test at this level of trance is the
voice hallucination – the subject hears disembodied voices speaking to him or
her.
![Page 20: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
![Page 21: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Again, the similarity between this hallucination
and the experiences of yogis and shamans during
self-induced trance is striking.
![Page 22: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
In the deepest levels of trance – levels that carry a
score of 11 or 12 – the patient responds to post-
hypnotic suggestions.
![Page 23: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
This means that their behaviour will be affected when they come out of the
trance.
![Page 24: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
At the very deepest level of hypnosis of all, the client
experiences amnesia – he or she cannot remember
details of the trance or that they have even entered the
trance state.
![Page 25: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
This deepest level is the stuff that sci-fi thrillers often
play around with, but this state cannot be reached against your will and a
conscious decision on the part of the client to enter the trance and go deep.
![Page 26: What happens during a hypnotic trance](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54447230b1af9f700a8b48fc/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
There are a lot of health, wellness and mental
benefits of Hypnosis that is why more and more people are recognizing it as a great
treatment alternative.
