Description:
All human beings have an urgent need to free themselves from all kind of action and from the necessity to make responsible decisions. Because this need is not as developed (or as well preserved) in every one, some of us are more easily hypnotized, while others surrender only superficially to the hypnosis and some cannot be hypnotized at all. Hypnosis has therapeutic elements. Inside the "Safe" in this hermetically sealed space away from all light and the outside world-person is sitting opposite the monitor. On one hand the room produces tension in a viewer due to the dark and closed space, while on the other hand absolute relaxation will be achieved by watching the video and reciting the text. This discrepancy between two opposite dispositions produces an unique emotional state in a viewer. (Source: www.antallux.de)
