Live Hypnosis Demo on Comcast Morning Show

I was recently asked to perform a live hypnosis demo on CN8 Comcast Network’s “Your Morning” show. The induction was performed on a volunteer from the Comcast staff; she was a bit nervous about being on live TV as well as being hypnotized. Still, even with no pre-interview or rehearsal, and in a fairly unrelaxing studio environment (the program is broadcast from the lobby/restaurant area of a large hotel in Philadelphia), she was able to achieve a demonstrable level of hypnosis in the very limited time we had available.

Being on the program was a great experience, the staff of the show was very professional and made sure everything ran smoothly. I only wish I had some more time to help dispel some of the myths regarding hypnosis, such as:

  • Hypnosis is not sleep. You are awake and aware while in the state.
  • At this point, there is no question that hypnosis is a real phenomenon based on medical and scientific research. But there is a lot of debate about exactly how and why it works. And also if it is really effective for some of the things that people claim.
  • You cannot be forced to do anything against your will or morals, and you cannot be forced to reveal secrets you do not want to share. At all times you retain self-control.

    • PS. The Comcast “Your Morning” show is broadcast live every morning into 9 million homes along the East Coast. Did I mention I help many people who have a fear of public speaking, or who would like to gain self-confidence?

      Well done, good show! Anything that spreads the word of hypnotherapy is beneficial to both the public and hypnotherapists.
