What are thoughts, and how do we control them? If we can control thought stimulation in the cerebral cortex6 the sleep centre will take over. In other words, if we can control thoughts, we will shift into the THS and sleep will follow soon.

In the THS, or in any hypnotic state, the stage is dim and you cannot see what is going on. Hypnosis is like using a single spotlight to focus on a small part of that big stage in the theatre. The concentration is maximized by the spotlight, so that the rest of the stage is ignored and the mind is only aware of the limited activities focused on by the spotlight. The change from the awake state to any hypnotic state is like the theatre stage beginning to dim and the spotlight beginning to form and focus on a particular part of the stage. This spotlight can focus on any part of the stage suggested by the hypnotist Hence the focus can be on our memory bank— some of us have the ability to regress back to childhood and experience things we thought we had forgotten. This spotlight can be focused on some of the anxious moments in our lives, but can also be focused on some peaceful non-threatening parts of our lives.
