Show Hypnotist plans musec hall show A world authority on hypnosis hyp-nosis reports that 90 to 95 percent of all adults can be hypnotized to some degree and that any normal, intelligent person can learn to hypnotize. This is the conclusion reached by the Australian hypnotist, Reveen, after a lifetime study of hypnotism, mesmerism, psychic psy-chic phenomena, occultism, and parapsychology. Reveen claims there is nothing no-thing magical or supernatural about hypnosis. It is an exacting exac-ting science. He debunks the fables and fantacies of the fiction fic-tion writers who portray people being hypnotized against their will. He also states emphatically emphatic-ally that it is impossible for the hypnotist to "take over" the will of the subject. Reveen has documented evidence evi-dence that he has hypnotized more than 40,000 persons from all over the world. There has never been one person report any feeling of discomfort, em-barrassm em-barrassm e n t, or uneasiness. When Reveen appears on the stage at Valley Music Hall, January 6 through 11, hundreds of persons will experience the exhilaration of Reveen's hypnotic hyp-notic trance. Do people ever try to fool Reveen and merely act as though they were hypnotized? "Yes we have a few each show who try it," he confessed. "But it is very easy to detect When hypnotized, the subject is very 'sharp' and responds completely automatically. If not in a true trance, the subject sub-ject is slow almost like a mentally retarded person." What type of person is easiest eas-iest to hypnotize? Contrary to popular belief, it is the person with the strong will, the person per-son with above average intelligence. intel-ligence. According to Reveen, hypnotism has nothing to do with the will: it depends upon the imagination, a faculty which is vastly stronger that the will. Therefore bright, imaginative im-aginative persons make the best subjects. There are three classes of people who cannot be hypnotized hypno-tized at all: (1) the Insane; (2) infants too young to understand under-stand the words of the operator; opera-tor; (3) persons in a state of intoxication. Reveen has had a great deal of experience in the field of hypnotherapy. He has lectured to medical men all over the ; world. Working with doctors i Reveen has induced completely : painless childbirth, has pro-I pro-I duced hypnotic anesthesia, has reduced bleeding during sur-. sur-. gery, and cured nervous insomnia. |
