Hypnosis is a completely natural state of mind. We go in and out of hypnosis several times a day. Any time we are more in tuned with our inside dialogue and concentration, rather than outside stimuli, we are in hypnosis or trance. Examples of this are; daydreaming, watching TV or reading a book when we completely dissociate from the outside world and deeply concentrate.

How many times have you driven to your destination, reached it and realized that you really were not mindful of the actual drive since you were so deeply in your thoughts? Or you were so involved in a movie you were watching that you forgot about the outside world and where you are. That's hypnosis or a trance state. Hypnosis is a deep relaxation of the mind and the body, combined with a heightened sense of concentration on the inside, rather than outside stimuli. Everyone of average mental ability is able to enter hypnosis if they are willing.
