Many Chinese under the spell of hypnotism
Many Chinese under the spell of hypnotism

Soothing music creates a dreamy atmosphere in the room, while the hypnotist murmurs to his patient, “Calm down, relax and then wake up” in a slow but authoritative tone. The patient has been suffering insomnia. Now, he opens his eyes, seemly relieved of a heavy load in the wake of a hypnotic trance.
This use of hypnosis as a medical cure is being advertised by a growing number of clinics in China, claiming that a deep trance can help people get better sleep, ease stress, relieve pain, induce people to stop smoking or even lose weight.
On the online forum tieba. baidu.com, over 50 Web users posted their contacts saying they can provide hypnosis therapy.
The purported benefits of hypnotism have given birth to a large number of believers who want to become professional hypnotists or simply try their hand at putting people into a deep sleep.
Recently, experts have warned that possible psychological damage could be inflicted by unlicensed clinics, illegal training classes and amateur hypnotists in China’s booming market for hypnotic therapy.
“As far as I know, there are only two qualified hypnotists in China,” said Wu Rengang, a psychology professor at Peking University and a psychiatrist at the No. 2 Hospital of Beijing.
Wu told the Global Times that it is impossible to master the skills of hypnotism needed to treat patients simply by attending a weeklong training course.
“Maybe you can learn how to hypnotize someone within a week, but to become a professional hypnotist requires the skills needed to provide proper psychological guidance after hypnosis,” Wu said.
She warned that those who want to try the effects of hypnosis at a training class should never attempt to hypnotize someone else because it might worsen their mental problems.
In Jilin Province, a 28-year-old cook, Wang Zhilong, saw hypnotic treatment for the first time on a TV talk show program. Since then, he has been deeply attracted to hypnotism, but also worries about professionalism in the market.
“I feel so absorbed by hypnosis. It’s amazing,” Wang told the Global Times. “I want to master it, but I’m afraid there are too many fraudulent training institutions right now.”
A Shanghai-based hypnosis training center that boasts of being a pioneer in the field told a Global Times reporter that even a junior high-school graduate could master the skills of a professional hypnotist by attending the center’s eight-day training program.
“The nation’s famous hypnotists will lecture at the courses, using hands-on teaching methods. We guarantee that you will master all skills needed to conduct hypnosis, exactly like what our teacher mastered,” said an anonymous female assistant at the training center.
She repeatedly suggested that a reporter watch teaching videos on the center’s website. One video shows a man under hypnosis, fast asleep but performing acrobatic moves on verbal commands of the hypnotist, who is surrounded by a group of students.
The tuition fee for the weeklong program is 12,800 yuan ($1,875) according to the assistant, a fee equal to the average tuition cost of four semesters at an accredited university offering psychology courses.
Similar training centers and seminars can be found in cities like Beijing, Xi’an, Zhengzhou and Guangzhou, all claiming that their teachers are hypnotists with reputations.
Thus far, there are no existing laws or regulations to guide the establishment of hypnosis training programs.

Energy Drinks – Should you Drink Them?
What do you do when you feel exhausted and beat but need to stay alert and awake? Simple, you take an energy drink and feel invigorated and instantly alive enough to finish whatever late night work you need to do. Energy drinks are beverages that are meant to be a quick fix for the exhausted and sleepy.
For instance, if you are a student who needs to pull an all nighter to finish studying for an exam early the next morning. After your hard day at school, it can be extremely difficult to stay up and not fall asleep on your notes. To help you keep going, energy drinks were intended to be the cramming student’s companion.
Energy drinks can be confused with sports drink but these are completely different. However, there are some hybrids that have been manufactured that combine the benefits of energy drinks along with sports drinks. The main difference between the two is that sports drinks contain electrolytes as well as sodium to help the body absorb and retain valuable liquids that have been lost during sports or other strenuous activities.
Energy drinks on the other hand is mainly a mixture of caffeine, sugar, some herbs like ginseng and other alert giving substances that are meant to help one maximize the length of hours that he or she is awake for in a given day.
There are some controversies behind energy drinks. Some interest groups are making noise about the amount of caffeine that these energy drinks contain. In fact, it is true that most energy drinks contain caffeine concentrations higher than that in a cup of espresso. This some people say is problematic because pregnant women, children and people who suffer from anxiety disorders may suffer inadvertent adverse effects.
Also, caffeine is the world’s most extensively used mood altering substance and it also happens to be addictive so there are some who voice their concern against the caffeine concentration found in these energy drinks. Although, it would be important to note that no strong claims have been set to back any complains by interest groups about the health implications of energy drinks.
The fact is that taking energy drinks is a choice. Most, if not all energy drinks list their ingredients on their labels and here they also list the concentrations of each of the ingredients so that consumers know what it is exactly that they are taking. Also, sometimes, taking energy drinks is the only choice when in a tight fit.
This is true not only for cramming students but for business and professional individuals who need to be able to pack in more hours than would usually be allowed by the body. Late nights working to finish a presentation that may help get that promotion is an endeavor surely worth the aid of energy drinks.
Like everything however, energy drinks should be taken moderately and only when absolutely needed. Also, be sure to be aware about how much energy drinks you’ve downed in one sitting. One dose of energy drink is supposed to keep you going for some hours so it is probably wise not to take more than one dose of energy drink at a time. Also, it is better to drink the sugar free types of energy drink so that sugar crashes are avoided.
