History
'''Founder and Creator of “The Fourth Dimension-Mind Power” Program (World Wide)''' Born in a Gujarati family on the 15th of July the year 1957, at Godhra, Gujrat. He was a rebel child and the family had a difficult time coping with the behavior and thinking style of this boy. Although on many occasion wise men from various religion predicted an unusual feature, common words among most of them “Great soul or Mahan Insan” it was impossible for his parents and his family members to believe such a prediction. From his early childhood he was not interested in the usual curriculum of studies in school. He believed there was much more then what he was taught and that most of his teachers in school and college  did not have any knowledge other that what they were imparting to their students. He was ever so restless as if there was something he had to do but never had a clue. There were answers he was always seeking for but never got from any of his school teachers nor from his parents. It was one fine day at a very young age that one of his uncles took from to Yoga Institute in Pune, India, where he found what he was looking for: ANSWERS. This was the first step towards a journey of a thousand miles. Later he joined a residential course at the Yoga Institute in Mumbai (Bombay), where under the guidance of Shri Yogendra (his teacher) he realized the purpose of existence and later the wisdom and knowledge imparted by Dr. Jayadeva (Yogendraji’s son and Hansa Ji), gave him enough food for thought.

From India then he started visiting various countries in search for knowledge of self realization- Philippines, Greece, Bangladesh, Turkey, Far East, Middle East, Srilanka and to Europe and United States of America. He learned modern approach and scientific knowledge besides philosophy, mysticism and Meta Physical sciences. Few of his teachers include: Dr. Richard Hart, Dr. Richard Bandler, John LaVale, Burt Goldman, John Newman, Mick Lawrence, Dr. William Horton, Anthony Robbins, Jose Silva, Lea Stuart and many Teachers of the East. In Short both from the East and West he learned from many Masters.

Prof. Moiz Hussain- the founder of The Institute of Mind Science got married in 1990 and later was blessed with two genius sons: Ali Asghar and Murtaza.

Over the years Prof. Moiz Hussain has taught and trained over 35000 persons from all walks of life of all ages from senior Doctors to CEO’s from school going children to MBA’s from politician to Senior Bureaucrats from Senior Military personals to Para Military and Police Officers, in short people from all walks of life have undergone training in various disciplines he teaches and many have transformed their lives forever. The number of his students, well wishers is increasing day by day. Most of them sincerely believe that Prof. Moiz Hussain is a living Miracle of Allah as he is destined to change lives of people who come in contact with him.

His healing abilities are extra ordinary and thousands of people suffering from major or minor ailments and diseases have been completely cured. From simple allergies to diseases like Cancer and conditions such as Paralysis people come to him for advice and healing.

Prof. Moiz Hussain is the Pioneer of many sciences and disciplines in Pakistan. He brought Yoga, REIKI, Hypnosis and NLP from 1974 to 2006. As a Reiki Master he has trained thousands of persons Men, Women and children as Reiki healers he has also so far trained 78 persons as Reiki Masters.

The most popular workshop in Pakistan and abroad called “The Fourth Dimension-Mind Power: Soul Healing, Super Learning Plus, Genius Method & The Mind Matrix are his creations.

He conducts workshops and seminars all over the world including in many cities of Pakistan such as Islamabad, Lahore, Karachi, Faisalabad, Okara, Multan, Hyderabad, Quetta, Peshawar and AJK. He regularly conducts workshops in UK and USA every year.

INTRODUCTION
Everyone desires health, happiness, security, peace of mind, but many fail to achieve it. Why is one man sad and another happy? Why is one man joyous and prosperous and another man poor and miserable? Why is one man fearful and anxious and another man full of faith and confidence? Why is one speaker outstanding and immensely popular while another mediocre and unpopular? Why is one man a great success and another a total failure? Is there an answer to these questions? There most certainly is!

The answer to the above question lies in the basic foundational and fundamental laws of life and mind. When properly understood and applied, the mind has a miracle working power that will lift us from confusion, misery and failures and guide s to our true destiny solve our problems and difficulties and free us from our emotional and physical bondage.

THE HUMAN BRAIN
The most powerful Bio Computer on Earth

Comprising of over 100 Billions Neurons (cells), the human brain in an average individual weighs approx 3.5 pounds. Can scan colors at 10000 shades per second, works faster than any computer known to men.

The brain works like the heart, ceaselessly pulsing day and night, from child hood to old age. In its over three pound of tissues are recorded and stored billions upon billions of memories, habits, instincts, abilities, desires, hopes, fears. Here are patterns and sounds and inconceivably delicate calculations and brutishly crude urgencies: the sound of whisper heard 30 years ago. The delight never experienced but incessantly imagined, the complex structure of stresses in a bridge, the development of 10,000 different games of chess, the precise curve of a lip, a hill, an equation of a flying ball, tones, and shades and faces of countless strangers, the scent of a garden, prayers, inventions, poems, jokes, tunes, sums, problems unsolved, the fear of hell and the love of God, the vision of a blade of grass and the vision of a sky filled with starts.

In your formal schooling (School/ college/ university) you were no doubt taught a wide range of academic subjects. Yet most people find that despite this they were taught very little of not taught at all about how they and their minds work. The following ‘yes/No’ questions will give you an idea of what you may have missed. Record your answer as you go along.

In your formal education were you taught about?

1.	The major left/right division of your brain? Yes/No 2.	The general structure of your brain and its brain cells? Yes/No 3.	The mathematical, memory and learning potential of your brain		Yes/No 4.	The way your memory changes during learning? Yes/No 5.	Special memory system for improving all kind of recall			Yes/No 6.	The way your memory changes after learning? Yes/No 7.	How to improve you listening ability? Yes/No 8.	The way in which your eyes move when they take in information? Yes/No 9.	The way in which eyes can be taught to take in more information? Yes/No 10.	How visual guides can increase your reading speed? Yes/No 11.	The way in which words and images ‘work’ in our mind? Yes/No 12.	How to prepare completely for, and write, examinations? Yes/No

As little as two thousands years ago mankind knew virtually nothing about the brain. It was not until the twentieth century that the really great strides forward were made in our understanding of our brains.

For some time it has been known that the brain is divided into two, left and right. It has also been known that if the left side of the brain is damages, the right side of the body tends to become paralyzed and correspondingly, that if the damage is done to the right side of the brain, the left side of the body tends to become paralyzed. In other words, each side of the brain controls the opposite side of the body.

The research of Professor Roger Sperry and Professor Ornstein of the University of California has thrown more light on the different activities of each side of the brain.

Starting with the realization that the two halves of the brain are biologically similar and can more realistically be thought as of two identical brains working in harmony, rather than as one brain divided into two, Professor Orenstein decided to find out if each of our separate brain handles different intellectual activities in addition to the physical activities.

Placing sp0ecial caps for measuring brain’s eaves on some of his students. He asked them to do different kinds of mental tasks. They were asked to add lists of numbers write formal letters and essays, arrange colored blocks, analyses logically, and think ‘DAY DREAMY’ thoughts. All the time these activities were being performed, Professor Ornstein was measuring the brain waves coming from the two halves of each person’s brain. His findings were both surprising and significant. In general the left-brain handles the following mental activities. Left side brain	Right side brain Logical Lists Linearity Words Numbers Sequence Analysis And other similar activities	Rhythm Color Imagination Day dreaming Dimension Spatial awareness Music and other similar activities

Orenstein also found that people who had been trained to use one side of their mind more or less exclusively were relatively unable to use the other side; both in general and in those special situations where the activities specifically related to the other side were particularly needed.

Even more significant, Orenstein found that when the weaker of the two brains was stimulated and encouraged to work in cooperation with the stronger side, the end result was a great increase in overall ability effectiveness.

This work has been further supported by an investigation into those people normally considered to be great artists and scientists. Einstein, for instance, often considered to be the greatest scientist of his time, was not simple a fuzzy headed mathematical physicist whose brain was full of numbers and formulae. Records show that he failed mathematics at school and he was nearly thrown out of college for day dreaming.

According to Einstein himself, he discovered his story of relativity not seated in front of his desk, but while lying on a hill one summer day. As he looked up his half eyes closed the sun draped through his eyelashes, breaking into thousands of tiny sunbeams. Einstein wondered what it would be like to go for a ride on one of those beams, and his imaginations took him on a journey through the universe. His imagination took him to a place where his formal training in physics told him he could not be. Concerned about this he went back to his blackboard, and believing his imagination to be more correct than his formal training worked out a new mathematics to explain the truth of what his brain had told him. Looking back, we see that he was actually using both sides of his brain to an exceptional degree, the right side of his brain producing the beautiful imagined journey, hand the left side of his brain being used to develop the new physics/mathematics, and to provide a formal frame work for the image he had created. This combination provided mankind with one of the most significant theories of all times.

For centuries the brain has been considered as merely a three and a half pound lump of grey matter. With the development of the microscope it was discovered that the brains crumpled outer layer was far more complex than it had previously been believes and that it was composed of many thousands of intricate nerve and blood pathways.

As microscopy continued to improve, so did our knowledge of the structure of the brain. It was soon realized that each brain was composed of millions of tiny cells called neurons. In specific saga similar to that of astronomy in which more has been discovered the more powerful our measuring instruments have become scientists next discovered that each brain cell was like a tiny octopus, having center or nucleus and a large of little tentacles radiating in all directions form it.

Containing on their magnification journey the scientists found that each of these tentacles had thousands of tiny protuberances, much like the suction pads on the tentacles of the octopus, but protruding from all sides of the tentacles. By this stage in the investigation they had calculated that the average brain contained a truly staggering number of individual neurons: 10,000,000,000!

It was thought for a while that the number of brain cells determined the comparative intelligence if the person, but this belief was soon laid to rest when it was found that many people with large brains were apparently unintelligent whereas a number of small brains showed considerable intelligence.

Professor Anokhin was between the first to realize that it was not the number of brain cells that determined intelligence had something to do with the little protuberances on the brain cells tentacle. He that each phototube was connected to at least one another and by means of electrochemical impulses these two could form little patterns with other individuals and other groups. As he progressed, Anokhin realized that each brain was fantastic interlinking pattern formed by the thousand of protuberances on the many arms of many millions of brain cells.

In the last year of his life he calculated number of connections and pathways that could be made by a normal brain. He emphasized as a scientist that his estimate was conservative, and concluded his last public statement by saying he was convinced that no man was alive or had ever lived who even approached that full use of his brain. The number he calculated is still perplexing for scientists and teachers alike:

1 followed by 10 MILLION KILOMETERS Of standard type written naught!

Sperry’s Orenstein, and other finding about our artistic and academic abilities and Anokhins finding about the most limitless potential of our minds to form patterns and connections have confirmed the current trend in thought that everyone’s mind is much better then assumed and that most of the problems we experience with the use of our brains are not because of any fundamentals inability but because we have so far not received enough information about ourselves and the way we work.

Yet another area where we have recently discovered a vast untapped potential is the relationship between the upper and the lower brain. The upper brain variously called the rational brain the conscious brain, the new brain. The intellectual and medically the cerebral cortex, is the corrugated thinking cap that lies like a thick crumpled blanket over the central lower brain. The upper brain appeared at laterally evolutionary stage and looks over an increasingly large percentage of the cranial cavity reaching its currently most advanced stage in mankind, dolphins and whales.

Your upper brain deals primarily with intellectual activities and it is useful to note here that when we refer to the left and right brain we are actually referring to the left and upper brain. Your lower brain, variously called subconscious brain the old brain, the reptilian brain, the instinctive brain, and the emotional brain handles your day to day matters of which your conscious mind doesn’t have to be aware. Including, temperature, blood pressure, chemical balances, certain data processes, the digestive system, etc. Your lower also appears to be in charge of your emotions. Your lower brain is evolutionary more primitive brain and in the lower animals is in both volume and influence far the most dominant.

Until a recently as 1970 it was thought that the upper and lower brain functioned relatively independently and the lower brain had no control over the lower brain’s automatic functions especially those relating to control of certain bodily processes.

Then in March 1970 an Indian Yogi Swami Rama, visited the Menninge Foundation in Topeks, Kansas, where researchers were doing some exploratory in the field of one of mankind’s fondest dreams, the control of the body with the mind. In a series of experiments he was wired for brain waves respiration, skin potential, heart behavior, blood flow in the hands and temperature. While he was wired UP HE caused two areas a couple of inches apart in his right hand to change temperature in opposite directions. The rate of temperature was about 2 C per minute and he was able to maintain the change until there was temperature difference of 5 C.

He also demonstrated that he could stop his heart from pumping blood around the blood. The researcher, Alyce Green, Thelma Green and Dale Walters assumed that his heart would actually stop beating. What happened instead was his heart began to burn like fire at about three hundred beats a minutes, without blood either filling the chambers properly or the valves working properly. In addition to these experiments he also demonstrated that he was with his brains able to control his brains able to control his own brain waves.

From this and many other subsequent experiments we one know that it is possible for the upper brain to program the lower brain and in doing so to affect physical health, athletic performances, mental abilities, motivation and will power.

At the opposite extreme there are many instances of individuals miraculously recovering from illness damage and disabilities which were later attributed to their power of mind. Similarly many children especially when examinations are approaching, give themselves nosebleeds, change in temperature, vomiting, as the upper brain controls the lower brain in order to produce a desired result. The boxer Muhammad Ali stands as one of the greatest examples of control. He would program his mind to his future memories.

One final bit of good news about our brains has come from Professor Mark Rosenzweig and others. From

Ages it has been know that both hemispheres of the brain decline with age, reaching a peak between the ages of eighteen and twenty four, and then on. This was held to include most mental abilities among them recall, retention, etc. All those mistaken beliefs are now taken out and comfortably laid to rest. He has shown that if the brain stimulates no matter at what age.

Evidences are also found that in some societies in which the elders were considered the wise men. It didn’t only describe their knowledge and experience but also ability to use the knowledge they had. In light we heard that the old contestation of loosing brain cells continuously which causes serious mental decline. Apart from the fact that we can generate new connections then average loss of brain cells. If we loose 10,000 per 24 hours from birth till the age of eighty the loss is just 3 percent of the total amount produced.

The brain is often compared with machines and electrical systems, but we now know that the brain makes this pretty hard on the machines. The entire world’s telephone network is compared to your brain. Even there are 1,000,000 chemical reactions taking place in your brain.

Recently human brains were compared to the world’s most powerful computer the Cray. For example, the Cray computer even when working at 400 million calculations per second would operate for 100 years; only accomplish what your brain can accomplish in a minute. (Courtesy: Tony Buzan)

BRAIN WAVES
And the Communication that takes place

During the normal waking consciousness the mind jumps quickly from one thought to another. A rapid, irregular pattern of jerky waves is seen on the EEG. Scientist calls these the BETA waves. While ALPHA indicates a more relaxed, tranquil state. The thoughts are slower, less frantic. The EEG pattern is more regular, rhythmic and less rapid. The mind is relatively calm and peaceful. The consciousness correlated with THETA waves, which are even slower than ALPHA is characterized by a dream like “reverie” state during which one is immersed in world of images.

In meditation, the jerky rapid BETA waves are replaced by the slower ALPHA and as meditation becomes deeper, THETA waves begin to appear. We might then wonder that happens and what is considered the stage of lowest nervous system arousal the DELTA stage on the EEG. This is seen only during the deepest stage of sleep when central nervous system activity is at its minimum. During these periods even the dreaming stops. The brain and the mind seem to be more at rest.

It has been established by much research that when the brain frequency is lower there seems to be a communication taking place between the right and the left brain.

BELIEF SYSTEM
Releasing the Beliefs that Bind

Psychologist believe that 75% of a child’s early programming is negative, passed on by parents, relatives, teachers, other adults and peers who themselves were negatively programmed. Over the time the messages and suggestions children pickup become incorporated into their worldview and continue to influence their behavior on an unconscious level. But the unconsciousness or belief or fear does not diminish its effect. On the contrary a limiting belief will continue to work against you.

The Principle of mind does not differ from the principle of life; the principle of mind is that whatever we impress upon it is expressed on the screen of space as condition, experience and event. The law of our mind is the law of belief. The belief of our mind is the thought of our mind. Al your experience, events, conditions is the reaction of the inner conscious mind, to your thoughts. It is not the thing believes in, but the belief in our mind, which brings about the result.

Al of us have two sets of beliefs-Disempowering belief and Empowering beliefs Disempowering beliefs are beliefs that bind us, limits us. We often hear someone saying, “I can’t do it” “I am lucky” or it’s my destiny what can I do. These are disempowering or negative beliefs. Another set of beliefs are Empowering beliefs, those that give us the strength, the motivation, inspiration and courage to get up and do it. People motivated with empowering beliefs reach levels of human excellence in their personal and professional lives.

“I can do it”, this is a powerful empowering belief.

Most of us throughout our lives are ignorant of the fact that our limiting beliefs are responsible for our failures in life. How many of us believe that many times in our lives it happens, that we want to do something but are unable to do it. We may have a lot of hopes but things don’t work the way we want. Fortunately there is an away out. Becoming aware of the belief that binds us is the first step to breaking free of them. Awareness is the key to liberation. To become aware of the beliefs that bind you, choose one area of your life that feels deficient in some way. It is here that your limiting belief is operating most strongly. Next, decide what you want should occur in that area of life. Ask yourself “What would it feel like if this part of my life were whole? Powerful? Positive?” Finally create an empowering belief.

Once you become aware of the beliefs that bind you, you can choose to release them. The easiest way to do this is to continue working with your affirmations. In most instances the Limiting belief will fall away naturally. Sometimes however, the more imagines attitudes refuse to go away on their own. When this occurs, the remedy is simple: Change the negative belief into a new affirmation- a positive belief. As the ancient alchemist transmuted lead into gold, so can you transmute your negative assumptions into positive ones!

•	Use the following sentences as a guide “I now release the belief that ____________ (write your old belief) and replace it with __________________ (Write your belief).

•	As you’re gradually learn to release fears and limiting belief your state of consciousness become more accessible to love, peace and joy which is your natural birthright.

THE FOURTH DIMENSION®
When speak of a man raising his consciousness. We do not think of him as necessarily moving in space at all, but rather as transforming his consciousness from one level to another. Gradually becoming unresponsive to the element or vibrations of one order of matter and beginning instead to understand to those of higher level. All the information of this word with its scenery and inhabitants seems to fade slowly away for his view, while another world, one of a subtle order begins to dawn upon him. Lets take an example when we look at an object from a higher conscious level it would appear equal, while on the physical level we see the further side, in perspective that is, it appears smaller than the nearer side, which is mere an illusion. It is the unity and equality or oneness of an object with the subject that has led some writers to describe it as the astral vision or a sight in the FORTH DIMENSION.

Most people’s thoughts are so fleeting and indecisive e that the elemental picture created by them last only few moments, or hours, but after repeated thoughts or an earnest with will form an element whose existence may extend too many days.

A man, therefore, who frequently dwells upon one wish, thought or idea; such repetitions instead of forming new elements, strengthen that already in existence and give it if fresh lease of life.

The Fourth Dimension is also said to be an altered state of consciousness, in which one is capable of more rapid and intense healing, growth, learning and change. It’s a state of relaxed, focused, calm but energized alertness with heightened sensitivity. It is also referred as “the zone”. In this altered state of consciousness one’s capacity for any number of things is vastly enhanced.

According to Subatomic physics, all humans are ultimately composed of vibrations, even though disguised as solid matter, a closer look (sub-atomically) on the humans, reveals that all are nothing but mere fluctuations of energy, and are capable of pulsating in synchronization with the most powerful vibration in one unified field.

When one is able to function at the Quantum level of Awareness, it is here that one can change or alter the patterns of future, meaning we can create a better future for ourselves and our loved ones.

The Fourth Dimension ® •	The mind has a miracle working power that will lift us from: - Confusion - Misery - Failure •	Guide us to our true destiny, •	Solve our problems & difficulties.

Introduction
Hypnosis is a process in which critical thinking faculties of the mind are bypassed and a type of selective thinking and perception is established. Although some individuals experience an increase in suggestibility and subjective feelings of an altered state of consciousness, this is not true for everyone. In fact, some supposed hypnotic indicators and subjective changes can be achieved without relaxation or a lengthy induction by means of simple suggestion or waking hypnosis, a fact that increases the controversy and misunderstandings around hypnosis and the hypnotic state.

Theories of hypnosis
Some theories of hypnosis attempt to describe hypnotic phenomena in terms of brain activity while others concentrate more on the phenomenological experience. In either case, a fundamental distinction is between "state" and "non-state" theories of hypnosis. State theorists believe that an altered state of consciousness is a core part of hypnosis, whereas non-state theorists believe that more mundane psychological processes such as focused attention and expectation are sufficient to explain hypnotic phenomena. The precise definition of what constitutes an altered state of consciousness is a matter of some debate. Although many people who are hypnotized describe their experience as "altered" it is difficult to use these terms in the absence of a prior definition.

The American Psychological Association remains neutral in the argument between "state" and "non-state" theorists. However, this controversy may soon be resolved, as modern brain-imaging techniques offer hope for an increased understanding of the science behind hypnosis, and as the value of both perspectives is increasingly recognized.

The following theories have been presented from highly regarded individuals/groups.

Alpha- and theta-state theories
Through data collected by electroencephalography (EEGs), four major brain-wave patterns—frequency of electrical impulses firing from the brain—have been identified. The beta state (alert/working) is defined as 14–32 Hz, the alpha state (relaxed/reflecting) as the 7–14 Hz, the theta state (drowsy) as 4–7 Hz, and the delta state (sleeping/dreaming/deep sleep) as approximately 3–5 Hz.[1]

One physiological definition of hypnosis states that the brainwave level necessary to work on issues such as stopping smoking, managing weight, reducing phobias, improving athletic performance, etc., is the alpha state. The alpha state is commonly associated with closing one's eyes, relaxation, and daydreaming.[1]

Another physiological definition states that the theta state is required for therapeutic change. The theta state is associated with hypnosis for surgery, hypnoanesthesia (the use of hypnosis to numb sensation of pain), and hypnoanalgesia (the use of hypnosis to decrease sensitivity to pain), which occur more readily in the theta and delta states. Anesthetics, sedatives and hypnotics disrupt neuronal synchrony, thought to underlie theta waves, in both humans and animals, as well as in simple neuronal circuits.[2] It should be noted that hypnoanalgesia of the skin is a common test for somnambulism. Arm and body catalepsy are one of a few tests done to determine readiness for these surgical applications. [citation needed]

However, it is important to reflect upon the fact that both arm and body catalepsy can be induced in normal non-hypnotized subjects. Indeed, arm catalepsy is a standard stage-hypnotist's test of susceptibility. Moreover, normal, non-hypnotized subjects can be found in any of these states of cortical arousal without also displaying any of the behavior, traits or the enhanced suggestibility associated with being hypnotized.

Social constructionism and role-playing theory
This theory suggests that individuals are playing a role and that really there is no such thing as hypnosis. A relationship is built depending on how much rapport has been established between the "hypnotist" and the subject (see Hawthorne effect, Pygmalion effect, and the Placebo effect).[3]

Generally, during the communication process people can become more receptive to suggestion, causing changes in the way they feel, think, and behave. Some psychologists such as Robert Baker claim that what we call hypnosis is actually a form of learned social behavior, a complex hybrid of social compliance, relaxation, and suggestibility that can account for many esoteric behavioral manifestations.[4] Psychologists, such as Sarbin and Spanos, have suggested that strong social expectations are played out by subjects, who believe they are in a state of "hypnosis", behaving in a way that they imagine a "hypnotized" person would behave.

Nicholas Spanos states "hypnotic procedures influence behavior indirectly by altering subjects' motivations, expectations and interpretations"[5] and hypothesized that the behaviors associated with hypnosis are acted out knowingly by the person. He alleged that there are two reasons that cause people to misconstrue their state of consciousness as hypnosis. One of the reasons being that people believe that their behavior is caused by an external source instead of the self. The second is related to the way hypnotic rituals are performed. The hypnotist says certain things which are first interpreted as voluntary and then later on in the procedure as involuntary. An example being "relax the muscles in your legs" and then later "your legs feel limp and heavy".

Much experimental work has demonstrated that the experiences of supposedly hypnotized subjects can be dramatically shaped by expectations and social nuances. In short, individuals are choosing to act out a role and experiencing effects based on their expectations and subtle methods of communication, the mechanism by which these take place have in part been socially constructed and are not based on the idea of an altered state of consciousness.

Dissociation and neodissociation theories
Pierre Janet originally developed the idea of dissociation of consciousness, as a result of his work with hysterical patients. He believed that hypnosis was an example of dissociation: areas of an individual's behavioral control are split off from ordinary awareness. In this case, hypnosis would remove some control from the conscious mind and the individual will respond with autonomic, reflexive behavior. Weitzenhoffer describes hypnosis via this theory as "dissociation of awareness from the majority of sensory and even strictly neural events taking place.

Neuropsychological theory of hypnosis
Neuropsychological theories of hypnosis attempt to explain hypnotic phenomena in terms of alterations in brain activity. Gruzelier, based on large amounts of EEG research, proposed that hypnosis is characterized by a shift in brain activity from anterior (front) to posterior (back).

Hypnosis as a conditioned process leading to sleep
Ivan Pavlov believed that hypnosis was a "partial sleep". He observed that the various degrees of hypnosis did not significantly differ physiologically from the waking state and hypnosis depended on insignificant changes of environmental stimuli. Pavlov also suggested that lower brain stem mechanisms were involved in hypnotic conditioning.[7]

Some modern well-known hypnotherapists subscribe to this theory, since in hypnosis, the subject typically appears to be asleep because of eye closure that is typically part of the induction procedure. However, there is quite a bit of literature on blood pressure, reflexes, physiochemical and EEG studies which indicates that hypnosis more closely resembles complete wakefulness.[citation needed]

Hyper–suggestibility theory
Currently a more popular theory, it states the subject focuses attention by responding to the suggestion of the hypnotist. As attention is focused and magnified, the hypnotist's words are gradually accepted without the subject carrying any conscious censorship of what is being said. This is not unlike the athlete listening to the last pieces of advice from a coach minutes before an important sport event: Concentration filters out anything that is unimportant and magnifies what is said about what really matters for the subject.[3]

Informational theory
This theory applies the concept of the brain-as-computer model. In electronic systems, a system adjusts its feedback networks to increase the signal-to-noise ratio for optimum functioning, called a "steady state". Increasing the receptability of a receptor enables messages to be more clearly received from a transmitter primarily by trying to reduce the interference (noise) as much as possible. Thus, the object of the hypnotist is to use techniques to reduce the interference and increase the receptability of specific messages (suggestions).[3]

Systems theory
This theory may be regarded as an extension of James Braid's original conceptualization of hypnosis[8] as involving a process of greatly enhancing or depressing the activity of the nervous system. It takes and establishes the necessary organization of the nervous system into interacting subsystems. On that basis it develops a picture of hypnotic phenomena as involving not only increasing or decreasing of the activity of particular subsystems, but on their interaction. As a result it brings into centre stage the phenomenon of feed-back loops, familiar in systems theory, and thereby throws light on a mechanism for creating the more extreme of hypnotic phenomena.[9][10]

Brain imaging
With the recent advent of new brain imaging techniques (chiefly magnetic resonance imaging [MRI], with EEG and positron emission tomography [PET] contributing to a lesser extent) there has been a resurgence of interest in the relationship between hypnosis and brain function. Any human experience is reflected in some way in the brain – seeing colors or motion is underscored by activity in the visual cortex, feeling fear is mediated by activity in the amygdala – and so hypnosis and suggestion are expected to have observable effects upon brain function. An important issue for researchers conducting brain imaging is to separate the effects of hypnosis and suggestion — knowing that a suggestion given during hypnosis affects brain area X does not just tell us about hypnosis, it tells us about the effects of the suggestion too. To account for this, experiments need to include a non-hypnotic-response-to-suggestion condition —only this way can the specific effects of hypnosis be examined.

A number of brain-imaging studies have been conducted on hypnotized subjects. A selection of these studies are explained and summarized below:

One controlled scientific experiment postulates that hypnosis may alter our perception of conscious experience in a way not possible when people are not "hypnotized", at least in "highly hypnotizable" people. In this experiment, color perception was changed by hypnosis in "highly hypnotizable" people as determined by (PET) scans (Kosslyn et al., 2000). (This research does not compare the effects of hypnosis on less hypnotizable people and could therefore show little causal effect due to the lack of a control group.)

Another research example, employing event-related functional MRI (fMRI) and EEG coherence measures, compared certain specific neural activity "...during Stroop task performance between participants of low and high hypnotic susceptibility, at baseline and after hypnotic induction". According to its authors, "the fMRI data revealed that conflict-related ACC activity interacted with hypnosis and hypnotic susceptibility, in that highly susceptible participants displayed increased conflict-related neural activity in the hypnosis condition compared to baseline, as well as with respect to subjects with low susceptibility." (Egner et al., 2005)

Skeptics dispute the significance of such findings, claiming that such changes cannot be shown to be particular to the hypnotized state, and that any other action such as daydreaming is also likely to alter brain activity in some manner. However, recent studies have shown that hypnotized subjects suggested to experience auditory hallucinations demonstrated via PET scans, regional blood flow in the same areas of the brain as real hearing, whereas in subjects merely engaged in vividly imagining hearing noises, this did not occur.[12] The subject is still a matter of current research and scientific debate.

Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is a term to describe the use of hypnosis in a therapeutic context. Many hypnotherapists refer to their practice as "clinical work". Hypnotherapy can either be used as an addition to the work of licensed physicians or psychologists, or it can be used in a stand-alone environment where the hypnotherapist in question usually owns his or her own business. The majority of these stand-alone certified hypnotherapists (C.Hts in the U.S., Diploma. Hyp in the UK) today earn a large portion of their money through the cessation of smoking (often in a single session) and the aid of weight loss (body sculpting). Psychologists and psychiatrists use hypnosis predominantly for the treatment of dissociative disorders, phobias, habit change, depression and post-traumatic syndromes.[17] There is no evidence that 'incurable' diseases are curable with hypnosis (such as cancer, diabetes, and arthritis), but pain and other body functions related to the diseases are controllable.[18][19][20][21] Some of the treatments practiced by hypnotherapists, in particular so-called regression, have been viewed with skepticism.[22]

The American Medical Association and the American Psychological Association have both cautioned against the use of repressed memory therapy in dealing with cases of alleged childhood trauma, stating that "it is impossible, without other corroborative evidence, to distinguish a true memory from a false one",[23] and so the procedure is "fraught with problems of potential misapplication".[24] (See also false memory). This is why forensic hypnosis is not widely used in many countries' legal systems. However, hypnosis therapy is frequently used by the public and there is no shortage of testimonial evidence of its helpfulness.
