You are fully aware of what's going on around you and you respond only to suggestions that are right and benefit your beliefs. Relaxation is the first and most important step of hypnosis. Your eyes are closed, you breathe deeply at a diaphragmatic, laggard pace, and be unfettered of any jewelry or any other accessories that would cause uneasiness. When you are relaxed, tension is released in your muscles, nerves, and blood vessels. This also reduces the blood circulation which puts your body at well-being.
Relaxation is the key to overcome a fear, habit, and many other symptoms.
An experience a young woman had with the fear of going to the dentist was overcome because of the relaxation methods her dentist used. While she was being prepped to have her tooth drilled, her dentist had told her to stay relaxed and imagine something that she would rather be doing. She thought it would be difficult to concentrate in the situation she was in, however, she tried it. She was puzzled at how she didn't seem to feel a thing, and how she wasn't frightened. He explained to her that he had learned a technique of hypnotism.
