Hypnosis is a process of achieving an altered state of consciousness. It's similar to daydreaming. With your conscious mind occupied or turned off, the messages from the hypnotist go into your subconscious. The effect is that new attitudes and behaviors can be suggested so deeply that they can become as integrated as if you'd been that way for years. For example:
It becomes natural to reach for the water bottle instead of a cigarette. The idea of buying ice cream now turns your stomach. The extra hour or so is just enough time to get to the gym instead of wasting time on the computer.
