How is mentalism different from magic?
Mentalism can be understood as a branch of magic which is focused on mental illusions, such as illusions of “mind reading”, “influence” and “mind control”.
 

What is hypnosis?
Despite hypnotists using the word “Sleep”, hypnosis is actually not sleep. Hypnosis is a heightened state of suggestability where the subconscious mind acts upon various suggestions given by the hypnotist. While Nigel Lew’s mentalism performances may give the impression of “mind control”, they are simply illusions, as hypnosis subjects cannot be made to perform acts against their will or morals.
 

Is hypnosis safe?
Hypnosis is safe for healthy individuals if done by a certified professional. Health or mental issues arising after a hypnosis performance by a certified hypnotist are often purely coincidental, and often not a result of hypnosis.
