EEG Activity During Hypnosis: What the Brain Waves Reveal

The EEG during hypnosis often shows alpha waves, which are associated with relaxation and meditation. However, it can also show other patterns, such as theta waves, which are associated with deep sleep, and beta waves, which are associated with wakefulness and concentration. The EEG patterns during hypnosis vary depending on the individual and the depth of the hypnotic state.
