Hypnotism is a form of mental suggestion that uses relaxation techniques to put people into a state of deep relaxation, allowing them to be more open to suggestions from the hypnotist. The most common type of hypnosis used today is called NLP (neuro-linguistic programming). NLP involves using language patterns to suggest desired outcomes or changes in behavior. There are many other types of hypnosis such as Ericksonian hypnosis, which focuses on verbal communication and indirect suggestions; trance induction, which is similar to NLP but uses music and movement instead of language; and even self-hypnosis, which allows the person to use their own voice and imagination to create a relaxed state.
