*2.3.8 Eye fixation*

Take for instance a situation when you find yourself "zoning out" and staring at an interesting item in the room while someone is talking. If you will completely miss what the person talking said, you may have been in a trance. One of the famous objects used in trance induction is "power pendulum" or a "swinging pocket watch" although any object can be used to achieve that. The object opens the subconscious mind to suggestion and keeps the conscious occupied [25].
