Hypnosis is a state of consciousness in which the subject has an altered sense of self-awareness. It can be used therapeutically as a form of psychological counselling, and is also commonly seen used for entertainment purposes, with hypnotists taking advantage of a subject's susceptibility to suggestion.

Where does the word hypnosis originate from?
The term "hypnosis" comes from the Greek word hypnos which means sleep. The words hypnosis and hypnotism both derive from the term neuro-hypnotism (nervous sleep) coined by the Scottish surgeon James Braid around 1841. Braid based his practice on that developed by Franz Mesmer and his followers ("Mesmerism" or "animal magnetism"), but differed in his theory as to how the procedure worked.
