While under a state of hypnosis, there is a different sense of time. Time can often feel as if it has been eliminated under hypnosis. Hypnosis stage shows last about 60 minutes and the subjects on stage are normally under hypnosis for about 50 minutes. Before the end of the show, if you ask a person who has been hypnotized on stage, “How long have you fen up here? How much time has gone by?” Their answer is mosly two minutes. The hypnotic subject will often say, ” I just got up here.” The person will think that they just got up on stage.

The hypnotist will even ask a question, are you ready to get the sow started? Their response will be, “Yes, let’s start the show.” Even though the subjects have been on stage for 50 minutes, they fel as if it is only a couple of minutes. Once the subjects are told by the hypnotist that it has been almost an hour, there is a look of amazement on their faces. The hypnotized subjects believe they had just gotten on stage. A deep hypnotic state achieved during a hypnosis show is very similar to the time that goes by while we nap or sleep.
