Is your child in trance?
According to "The Brain & the Mind." Psychology Volume 1. 2002: 117, Theta waves occur mainly in children ages 2 - 5 years old. Alpha waves occur in adults who have their eyes closed or who are relaxed. Theta waves are even slower (more open and receptive) than alpha waves which is the common brain wave pattern for hypnosis. So what does this mean? Children ages 2-5 are constantly in trance! If hypnosis is trance and trance is hypnosis, what an awesome responsibility for parents and society at large to protect the minds of our children.
If a child is told that they are no good, that they won't amount to anything, that they are failures who should not even try, those are some serious post-hypnotic suggestions that will effect those children and then they will have to come and see us hypnotherapists for us to dehypnotize them!
Children are walking hypnosis subjects, always deep in trance. Let's make sure that we are always cognizant of that in our dealings with our and other's children. All communication with children (especially from authority sources) MUST be monitored. We must act as their critical faculties, which have not been put into place yet. Realize that all communication with these fragile, impressionable minds could very well be taken completely and irrevocably literally. Especially if repeated often enough.
They say it takes a village to raise a child. Let's make sure that we, as villagers, protect the minds, hearts, and souls of these children by approaching every communication as though it were a hypnotic suggestion. Which of course, it could very easily be. And while we're at it, maybe we could do that for each other, as adults, too. Not a bad idea.
