You only need to convince people you have power to hypnotize to actually do it. If anyone walked onto a stage and if the audience was told prior there was a hypnotist performing and not knowing it was fake they would still have some people hypnotized. If suggested people had dry mouths or were tired and yawning it would only be a matter of numbers of just how many yawn.

I like you a lot - I suggest you get all your friends together and show them the salt thing - Make an evening of it if you like...
You've just described magic, illusions, religion, healing/medicine, conspiracy theorists, even hunger and so on. Mind and body are one system. A great deal of what we believe to be physical is little more than a trick of the mind, ... and quite often wrong.
Imagine for a moment what tasting salt on your tongue merely because the thought of tasting salt entered ones mind - which we can understand is not real at all but seems quit real, says about ones interpretation of the physical world around them.
What else is real or not real or just grossly distorted interpretations or even fully imagined, yet believed to be real? Hunger is not real. Being full is not real. These sensations feel physical, yet occur 100% in the mind.
It's a widely studied phenomenon that a disturbingly large percent of the success of any medication in patients is just as much due to the placebo effect as it is the medication.
How are others controlling you, your thoughts and even your own life trajectory? I am going to play racquetball in a few minutes, and in spite of being competitive we joke around a lot. When a certain person serves to me who us very good, I think of different ways to get him to picture the worst serve possible... "You know what I was just thinking? I was remembering last Tuesday where you had (I slow my speech and emphasis these words), the worst serve you've ever had". The problem with thoughts is that you can't unthink them.. So he's now pictured himself being horrible right before he serves. If its a terrible serve , I'll make similar seemingly innocuous remarks until his game falls apart completely. Essentially turning his own mind against his own body in a way that he can't even correct.
The mind is an incredible thing. It is a shame so few make any attempt at all to understand it, themselves and others.
. Yes, fewer illegal immigrants working equates to more job opportunities for American citizens.

when I was about 12 a friend of my stepdad brought brother over. some people had given him weed in food and not told him. he was having a psychotic episode. he was screaming a yelling weird stuff, they held the poor guy down on the floor while he thrashed about convulsively until he passed out.
