My belief; In conclusion, no I do not believe in hypnosis. I believe in self control. If you want to stop something you do or change things, you can do that by your own free will. I also believe that how they say the help heal people, I think it is just a lucky shot, because they say that if you think you’re sick, you make yourself sick. So, if you think your healing or getting better, you’ll get better. I believe people go to hypnotists to seek for answers they already know. They just want a second opinion or someone else to agree with. I believe it doesn’t really work. Even seeing it on live TV doesn’t look real. But, this is my belief of hypnosis. Now think of yours.
