Episode Summary:
In this Halloween special, we tackle one of the biggest questions in hypnosis: Is hypnosis truly dangerous, or just misunderstood? We unpack the myths, fears, and facts behind the practice. From mind control to “getting stuck in trance,” we reveal the truth: hypnosis is no more dangerous than a meaningful conversation.
Through humor, personal stories, and decades of experience, we expose how cultural conditioning and media sensationalism have kept hypnosis shrouded in fear. You’ll learn how to separate myth from science, understand the real (and rare) ethical risks, and discover how hypnosis can be used for healing, transformation, and personal growth.
