Preparing for Your Hypnosis Session

Arafinwe offered the following suggestions for preparing for a hypnosis session:

I have found several things helpful to getting the most out of a trance. Not eating a large meal directly before. Not drinking any alcohol directly before. Some physical exercise that gets the heart and lungs pumping within about two hours before. Trancing in a slightly relaxed sitting position, (in a chair that leans back a bit and supports the head), as opposed to lying prone. Not watching TV within an hour before. Not driving in city traffic within an hour before.

In short, don't do things that agitate the mind or act as a soporific to the body. Do things which invigorate the mind without over stimulating it, or rest the mind, shortly before trancing. Also, exercise seems to help just because it gives the body a good shot of energy to feed off when later in trance.

Excellent suggestions, Arafinwe :)
