## Resource

An introduction to The Weave and to self-hypnosis itself. It isn’t a session. Nothing here will put you into trance or ask you to close your eyes. It’s a conversation about what self-hypnosis actually is, what it isn’t, and what to expect from the episodes that follow. If you’ve ever been curious about hypnosis but weren’t sure what you were getting into, start here.
