#2 Most Asked Question About Hypnosis
People ask me all the time, “If you hypnotize me, will you make me quack like a duck or bark like a dog?”
What they really want to know is, if I can control them and make them say or do things they don’t want to, like quack like duck and be laughed at. No, I can’t make you do anything you don’t want to do. You have a Guardian part of your mind that protects you. You can’t be forced to things that are against your moral code.

I Saw my Friend Act Weird in a Show
But you may have seen a stage hypnosis show where the volunteers did all kinds of crazy things. Yes, they did because they wanted to. When you attend a stage show, you go to the show expecting to see funny bits and be entertained. And if you volunteer, you are ready to be a part of the fun. You buy into the idea that you’ll follow along and have some fun. You give yourself permission to go with the flow.
take direct suggestions well. I am not like that.
I’ll admit I didn’t know much of anything about hypnosis either before I started to study it. I was having some health issues from standing in my flower shop long hours. I knew that I needed to change to a profession that allowed me to be off my feet for part of the day. Hypnosis just kept coming up to me. I felt like God was leading me to this place and I had better listen. I really just thought it was a whim of my own mind and I would learn a little about hypnosis and then I would be tired of it and move on. I was sooo wrong!
I found the only accredited school of hypnosis in the world at the time. The great thing was they have an introductory class to teach hypnosis that is free. I figured that I would take that class and get the hypnosis bug out of my system but I was totally hooked after my 30 days. I could see the power of hypnosis and the good it could do. There was no turning back for me.

That doesn’t mean you still don’t have good judgement. My friend was a volunteer and the hypnotist told the group that they were going to be auditioning for a big movie role where they would be famous and earn millions. He asked them if they didn’t want to be famous and rich. Even in hypnosis, she knew she didn’t want that and shook her head no. He couldn’t make her want something that was so far out of her comfort zone.
I can’t make you do that either. And I don’t want to. I want you to achieve the change you came to me for whether that is to lose weight, overcome a fear, get rid of your anxiety or maybe do better at sports. I’ll be feeding your own words back to you during hypnosis to get your desired result. I make the suggestion but your Subconscious Mind must accept it.
In Conclusion
When you come to me for hypnotherapy, I will be making suggestions to your Subconscious Mind to accept a change you asked me for. I will not embarrass you or put you down. I’m not here to judge you or say that you are wrong in your point of view. I’m simply here to affect the change you’ve asked me for. But, of course, if you want to crow like a rooster, I’d be glad to help you out!
