Here are some resources I've come across for safety in hypnosis, especially for subjects. You are playing with your mind, and that needs to be protected.

## Structure of a session

I'd say it's good to stick to something like this, especially if you're a first timer or trancing with someone new. If the hypnotist doesn't already follow this structure, it's a good idea to guide it into one like this:

1. Pretalk - lay out what your boundaries are and what you want to achieve.
2. Induction - slowly get into the session.
3. Deepener / Suggestions - getting into the meat of the session.
4. Count back up - removing any suggestions not meant to last.
5. Aftercare - wrap up, check in on how you're feeling, etc.

## Safety suggestions

It is a good idea to throw at least one of these in every session, if not every few sessions. Some good tips at the bottom for red flags and keeping safe, too. Request for these if the hypnotist does not mention that they will use these, especially if you are new.

## Being risk-aware

There's a whole list of risks here, and the last section on abuse is a really great one for things to watch out for.

## Community blacklist

I'm not sure how active this blog is, but it'd still help to keep an eye out for these people, since some of them are still active.
