Stage hypnosis is a form of entertainment where a hypnotist guides volunteers from the audience into a trance-like state. During this state, participants may be more open to suggestions, allowing them to perform amusing or unusual tasks. The hypnotist often uses techniques like verbal cues and relaxation methods to induce hypnosis. The goal of stage hypnosis is to entertain the audience, showcasing the power of suggestion and the mind's capabilities. While some people may be more susceptible to hypnosis than others, it is important to note that participants cannot be made to do anything against their will or moral beliefs.
