Hypnotism involves the following phases:
1. Preparation - getting ready for the hypnotism session. Sit on a sofa or a bed in a comfortable position , so that the mind can relax.
2. Induction : the mind gradually moves from a state of awareness to a state of relaxation. This is done by clearing the mind of all thoughts and making each part of the body relax slowly.
3. Deepening : the mind moves to hypnotized state and conscious thinking is minimized, so that the hypnotist can make suggestions
4. Once the subject is in the hypnotized state, the person is made to do what the hypnotist wants him / her to do. For therapy sessions, the person usually realizes the benefits of adopting a particular lifestyle.
5. Awakening - the person gradually comes out of the state of hypnotism and returns to the normal state of self awareness.

Hypnotism is a state in which the person seems to be under a spell of another person (the hypnotist) and will ready perform any action or behave as suggested by the hypnotist. Hypnotism techniques can be learnt from a hypnotist with a little practice. Most people learn to hypnotize themselves first and then practice it on friends and other people.
Many aspects of hypnotism are similar to those of meditation, and control of the mind is important. About 10% of the population gets hypnotized more easily than other people, and some studies show that these people may have a vivid imagination. It is not possible to hypnotize some people, as they are so absorbed in their day to day events and problems, that they cannot concentrate.
Like any other technique, hypnotism can be used for good and for causing harm. It can be used for getting rid of bad habits like smoking, drinking, for weight loss. However, it can be misused by robbers and to commit frauds .
