Suspend your disbelief, after all, what have you got to lose?

The other day, I was speaking to an associate of a former client. Having heard that I was a hypnotist, he expressed curiosity about the matter and initiated a conversation. He said that he had heard about hypnosis a long time ago and had wondered if it would work. He also said that he was skeptical about it, even though his uncle was able to quit smoking with hypnosis but was even less so after hearing of the benefits gained by his colleague.
After explaining to him how the subconscious mind works, what hypnosis is, and isn’t, the man decided to suspend his disbelief, and give it a try. Now before his first session, I asked him to rate his level of skepticism on a scale of 0-10, which he rated at a 7. After his first session, he was surprised at how the experience felt, stating “that was great”, adding that his skepticism was now at a 5 out of 10. He decided to try another session during which he was able to go into a deep state of trance. More surprising to him was that he was able to feel worry free, stating “I haven’t felt that in a long time, if ever”.
In speaking with him afterwards, he stated that his level of skepticism had dropped to a 0 and that he wanted to have another session to really focus on his goal. 

Looks like the numbers speak for themselves.
