The mind did not evolve to think. It evolved to forage. Knowing this, what if hypnosis isn't something strange or rare—but something your brain already knows how to do? In Mental Foraging and the Evolution of Memory, clinical hypnotist James M. Harrison argues that long before hypnosis was an idea about the workings of the unconscious mind, nervous systems had already evolved the ability to mentally forage. Pausing to simulate, rehearse, and test possibilities before acting, this capacity became foundational to human imagination, memory, and adaptive behavior.

Allen Carr's Easyway is the most successful self-help stop-smoking method of all time. It has helped millions of smokers all over the world to quit and has since been used to treat other addictions such as drinking and gambling.
