    About this ebook

    SELF HYPNOSIS is a natural endowment which may be developed for much good.

    Many of us take advantage of this power on numerous occasions without really realizing what we are doing.

    In the following chapters I shall endeavor to explain how these powers may be developed and how they may benefit you.

    YOU MAY WONDER, “Am I the self-hypnotic type? “Can I develop this control over my mind and body?”

    Yes, YOU CAN HYPNOTIZE YOURSELF. So long as you have the ability to concentrate, you can put to work latent energy, awaken new physical and mental powers that you never thought existed—but is takes practice and more practice!

    So, let’s begin NOW!

    Joan Brandon

    Joan Brandon (1914-1979) was an American dancer, musician, professional magicienne, and hypnotist. She was born Honey Bee Finberg on February 12, 1914 in New Orleans, Louisiana, the daughter of Abraham Lincoln Finberg, a traveling performer and stage manager of theatrical stock companies who performed under the name “The Great Brandoni,” and Helen English Finberg. She had three brothers: Nils, Bill and Don. A member of Parent Assembly No. 1, Society of American Magicians, she first became interested in magic at an early age. At age 16, she headlined a theater tour across the U.S. with her brother Nils as dance duo “Bunny and Honey Bee.” She married starting theatrical agent Jack Hirsk in 1931, which led to work at top venues for major agencies like William Morris and Music Corporation of America. At 19, Brandon appeared as a nightclub performer in the movie I Hate Women (1934) and headlined in the vaudeville “That Gorgeous Blond Deceiver” in 1936. She appeared at the Tivoli Theatre in Melbourne, Australia in the show “Ladies First,” an All-Girl-Show that included magic. Billed as “The First Lady in Magic,” she became the first female magician to be televised, appearing on BBC London and stations across Paris and New York. In the 1950s she appeared on stage at New York’s Palace Theater on Broadway and began experimenting with a longer one woman show, switching to being a full-time pioneer woman in hypnosis in 1953. She billed herself as “The World’s Greatest Hypnotist” and created a sensation, drawing tens of thousands of admissions all over the U.S., appearing on TV shows such as NBC’s “Coke Time” with Eddie Fisher, and on “Long John” Nebel’s radio program entitled “Hypnosis.” She published several books on the subject, including Help Yourself Thru Hypnotism and Self Hypnosis (1953), The Art of Hypnotism (1956), Successful Hypnotism (1956) and Science of Self-Hypnosis (1959). Joan Brandon died on August 1, 1979, aged 65.

      1.—The History Of Hypnotism

      HYPNOTISM, comparatively speaking, is a new word although the science is as old as the human mind

      In ancient times it was regarded as something of a mystical art. Today genuine hypnotism is a science such as physics and chemistry. We find the origin of the psychological point of view in the study of hypnosis.

      One of the most famous figures in psychiatry, Anton Mesmer, further developed the ancient notion of the influence of the planets on the human body. Their influence was believed to be caused by a magnetic
