Trauma can be a heavy burden to bear, leaving us feeling stuck and unable to move forward. But what if we told you that the key to unlocking the chains of trauma lies within the depths of our own nervous system? The polyvagal theory provides us with a roadmap to understanding how our nervous system works and how we can use this understanding to achieve a state of crisis liberation.

The polyvagal theory explains that our nervous system has two main branches, the dorsal vagus nerve, also known as the "freeze response," and the ventral vagus nerve, also known as the "social engagement" or "rest and digest" response. The dorsal vagus nerve is responsible for shutting down non-essential functions in times of danger, leading to the "fight or flight" response, while the ventral vagus nerve is responsible for activating the "rest and digest" response, allowing us to feel calm and centred.

Hypnotic gaze is a powerful tool for activating the ventral vagus nerve, leading to a state of "rest and digest" and allowing us to release the traumas that are holding us back. The mutual gaze in the hypnotic process helps to bond, increase oxytocin levels, and create imitation. It activates the ventral vagus when coupled with a smile. But it also creates a fast hypnosis, with immediate catalepsy and the freeze that we see in animal hypnosis, thus the myth of the Medusa. Gaze tends in this case to activate the dorsal vagus reactions and can guide to deeper somnambulistic trances. This is a powerful tool for personal development, self-discovery, and liberation from traumas.

Gaze is also connected to the concepts of Samadhi, Dharana, Dhyana, and Kundalini. Kundalini is the serpentine power, but even gaze has a serpentine power. As according to polyvagal theories traumas can create freeze reaction at the level of the dorsal vagus nerve, fascination can be a way to facilitate release. We call the result the real mesmeric crisis from Mesmerism: Liberates the person from traumas of life through movement.

It's important to note that the effectiveness of hypnotic gaze can vary depending on the individual and the skill of the hypnotist. It is recommended to have the guidance of an experienced practitioner who can help you achieve the right state of mind and physical conditions for the crisis to occur. The hypnotic gaze is a powerful tool for personal development and growth, and can be used to reprogram the unconscious mind, releasing past traumas and resolving post-traumatic stress.

In conclusion, the use of hypnotic gaze as a means of inducing crisis as an intervention can lead to liberation from the traumas of life through movement. It can be understood through the concepts of polyvagal theory and Mesmerism. It is a powerful tool for personal development and growth and should be used under the guidance of an experienced practitioner. Unleash the serpentine power of hypnotic gaze and embark on a journey of self-discovery and liberation from the traumas that hold you back. "Eyes wide open, mind set free”
