waking up?

[Knitted]

Hypno files have always been very unpredictable with me. But has anyone experienced not waking up at the awakener despite not having fallen asleep?

This happens to me sometime, and upon realizing the file looped itself and Im in the middle of the induction again im like: Oops i was supposed to wake, and then I snap out....


So uh... :S What does this mean? Its not like I fell asleep or anything.

Question: how do you know you did not fall asleep?

There is a level of deep trance that you may get into that has the awakener not working and you just come out when you like to. It is a state where suggestion don't really work anymore.

So you may be in that state.

You may also be just asleep.

Hypnotic State

Hypnosis works at different levels from a light trance to a very deep state. Issues of fear and grief need deep relaxation and surgery demands an even deeper trance state. I help the individual relax, sometimes using a progressive relaxation, taking them to a safe place of their choosing. Since they are motivated to work on an issue. I suggest that they will be as relaxed as necessary. The working hypnotic state may vary during the session and I am constantly aware and open to intuition and Spirit.


WAKING STATE: person responds to suggestions as when using EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), and changing habits.
LIGHT STATE: body feels heavy and relaxed, used when regressing, or remembering forgotten information or lost objects.
DEEP STATE: somnambulistic state, used in stage shows (You will not bark like a dog unless you enjoy acting silly). Helpful for visiting past lives.
HYPNOTIC COMA: extremely deep state and person appears comatose, yet is aware (I used self-hypnosis during cataract surgery and aware of everything, but with no pain. When it was over I could go home immediately without recovery time waiting).
HYPNO SLEEP: the subconscious mind is aware even if the person snores and appears asleep (I tried it once and it took 15 minutes to recover).

The ting is... I was aware of every word that was uttered... Maybe I was in a half sleep state.... Dunno...
But I was also sitting upright(actually to avoid falling asleep :p) ....

Ah I dunno... Maybe I should keep my eyes open next time x_x ... But then Im afraid I wont trance at all.

I find it easier to get into trance by having eyes open, looking up, and waiting for the flickering eyelids. At that point the eyes close naturally and then can take the whole body down. When I did a course by the end of the day I could just look up, close eyes, and be gone.
Problem is at the moment if I open my eyes in trance it seems to break the state, so I'm thinking of using a visual aid so there's not that sudden change from dark to light to jolt me out of it

I think it means you were having a wonderful trance experience. Its possible you were not ready for it to end... Most likely it was just taking a little longer for you to come out of trance this time. Sometimes when I have responded very well and gone very deep it takes longer to actually awaken fully from the trance.
