Can you hypnotize with a spiral?

Yes, a spiral can be used as a hypnotic tool, often seen in movies and demonstrations of hypnosis. The repetitive and swirling pattern can induce a trance-like state as it captures the viewer's attention and encourages relaxation. However, effective hypnosis relies on more than just visual stimuli; it requires the subject's willingness to be hypnotized and the skill of the hypnotist.
