Frequently Asked Questions - The Method

Will you make me do silly things like in a stage show? / Will I be out of control? (cont.)

I, for example, could ask you now to prepare for the treatment by turning the lights down and taking the phone off the receiver and I’m sure you would. However if I asked you to stand on your chair and bark like a dog. You would refuse. In the CONTEXT of this therapy my first two requests were reasonable but the third clearly out of the question.

In fact, you know this must be true. If hypnosis had the power to control people's minds, you would have read about me in the news as first I hypnotized naughty school children into behaving in class and then prison inmates into mending their criminal ways before making my way to the United Nations to hypnotize world leaders into behaving themselves!

No one can make you do something you do not want to do. The concept of hypnotized or programmed "zombies" is a Hollywood fabrication that is very entertaining in movies like The Manchurian Candidate and The Stepford Wives but does not have any factual basis. Sorry!
