If consciousness is not disabled, but volition is, then we have a state which can be described as suggestible which begins to look like a hypnotic state. So, from a practical point of view, the trance theory model says that there is a trance generating loop which consisting of repeating cognitive objects. This loop creates a dissociated trance plane in which various cognitive functions are disabled. And depending on the order that these cognitive functions are disabled as well as which specific ones are disabled and which are not, you have different trance states. Let's look at some more examples of trance so that you can understand how to further apply this model.
Music consists of repeating rhythms and melodies.
From a trance theory point of view, music consists of multiple trances, one for each repeating rhythm or melody. Most of these musical loops repeat only a few times and there is a minimum number of repetitions needed before a dissociated trance plane will be created. Musical trance can be described as the creation of multiple trances followed by their collapse. However, another cognitive loop is precisely this repeated creation and collapsing of dissociated trance planes. Certain types of music are more trance-inducing, generally, than others.
