    Hypnosis is a state of human consciousness involving focused attention and reduced awareness of distractions. There are two main theories about hypnosis - altered state theories see it as a trance-like altered mindset, while nonstate theories view it as imaginative role enactment. During hypnosis, a person can intensely focus on a specific thought or memory while ignoring distractions, and they tend to respond more to suggestions. Hypnosis is usually induced through preliminary instructions and suggestions in a hypnotic induction procedure, and it can be used therapeutically as hypnotherapy or for entertainment purposes in stage hypnosis shows.

    Hypnosis is a state of human consciousness involving focused attention and reduced peripheral

    awareness and an enhanced capacity to respond to suggestion. The term may also refer to an art,
    skill, or act of inducing hypnosis.[1]
    Theories explaining what occurs during hypnosis fall into two groups. Altered state theories see
    hypnosis as an altered state of mind or trance, marked by a level of awareness different from the
    ordinary conscious state.[2][3] In contrast, nonstate theories see hypnosis as a form of imaginative role
    enactment.[4][5][6]
    During hypnosis, a person is said to have heightened focus and concentration. The person
    can concentrate intensely on a specific thought or memory, while blocking out sources of
    distraction.[7] Hypnotised subjects are said to show an increased response to
    suggestions.[8] Hypnosis is usually induced by a procedure known as a hypnotic
    induction involving a series of preliminary instructions and suggestion. The use of
    hypnotism for therapeutic purposes is referred to as "hypnotherapy", while its use as a form
    of entertainment for an audience is known as "stage hypnosis". Stage hypnosis is often
    performed by mentalists practicing the art form of mentalism.
