Fractal analysis of EEG upon auditory stimulation during waking and hypnosis in healthy volunteers.
The authors tested fluctuation analyses (DFA) of EEGs upon auditory stimulation in waking and hypnotic states as related to topography and hypnotizability. They administered the Hypnotic Induction Profile (HIP), Dissociation Experience Scale, and Tellegen Absorption Scale to 10 healthy volunteers and measured subjects' EEGs while the subjects listened to sounds, either selecting or ignoring tones of different decibels, in waking and hypnotic states. DFA scaling exponents were closest to 0.5 when subjects reported the tones in the hypnotic state. Different DFA values at C3 showed significant positive correlations with the HIP eye-roll sign. Adding to the literature supporting the state theory of hypnosis, the DFA values at F3 and C3 showed significant differences between waking and hypnotic states. Application of auditory stimuli is useful for understanding neurophysiological characteristics of hypnosis using DFA.

Others would explain it in terms of what they own, where they live, and how much money they make. As a therapist, people frequently tell me that they determine their happiness by how others treat or regard them. Unfortunately, in that case they have completely surrendered their happiness to the whims of others. That is not a condition that I recommend.
However, I am now going to recommend that you consider another approach to happiness. Consider your dominant thoughts....
Several factors are involved with the experience of loneliness. One, of course, is a lack of connection. The brain has sectors that cause a desire for connection with other human beings. When that connection is not occurring, a certain level of uneasiness occurs. This is why prisons use solitary confinement as a form of punishment. Second, as a person feels safer in a group situation, when that connection does not occur in his natural for the person's fight-flight reaction to occur. This is sometimes called a sympathetic autonomic nervous system reaction. When chronic it may cause health...
