AbstractWhen describing indigenous practitioners of healing, many authors allege that their work is "hypnotic" or that they practice "hypnosis." Because hypnosis is a social construct from the 19th century, this usage is incorrect. However, it makes sense to speak of “hypnotic-like” procedures. Examples include some of the practices found in North American shamanism, Balinese folk customs, and Brazilian mediumship. ResumenCuando se habla de sanadores indígenas, muchos autores afirman que su trabajo es de orden “hipnótico”, o que practican la “hipnosis”. Esto es debido a que desde el siglo diecinueve, la hipnosis ha sido un constructo social. Sin embargo, también podría tener sentido hablar de procedimientos “similares a la hipnosis” o “pseudo hipnóticos”. |
