All we have left to discus is the wake up process! So, at the risk of draaaaging this lesson a little, I’m gonna give you the wake up material today so that you don’t have to wait any longer!

Waking people from trance can be as easy as “1, 2, 3. Eyes open. Wide awake!’ BUT… that’s such a waste, so use the wake up script to get in a last few suggestions and make sure they wake up feeling absolutely great… and of course eager to volunteer again… so you get lots of practise!

Remember to remove any suggestion that you have used during the trance that your client doesn’t want to keep, and be sure to bring them fully back to date… at the right age!

After waking your client, spend a good five or ten minutes chatting positively about the experience, as they’ll still be very suggestible for a while. Read the rest of this entry »

Well, that’s the most serious situation out of the way… now on to another little problem that you’ll very probably experience… lots!

This is laughing… and expect it, ’cause it’s definitely gonna happen! When you start to practise on your friends they’ll laugh during the induction, some of them do this because the situation is unusual others do it because they really can feel something happening, and it serves as a bit of a safety net.

If someone laughs don’t stop the induction and give up… use the laughter! Laughing leads to relaxation, and it also releases lots and lots of stress… so go with it, laugh with them if you like, as soon as they manage to calm themselves say that if the laugh comes back it’ll make them twice as relaxed and take them twice as deep into trance. Then say something funny! Also make sure you point out how relaxed they feel as the laughter stops, especially around the face, have them notice the muscles in and around their jaw relax and link this with going even deeper!

Today we’re going to be looking at a few problems you might run into and what to do.

First off, we’re going to deal with abreaction. This is rare, but as it can happen you do need to know about it. It isn’t dangerous, it’s just unpleasant, but it can be an incredibly rewarding experience for the client and often leads to tremendous healing.

One of the best ways to think about abreaction is to imagine that deep in the clients subconscious mind is a pocket of trauma that’s been locked away out of sight for many years. Although this trauma is hidden it affects the client in a very negative way and prevents them from living their full potential. Read the rest of this entry »

Today we’re going to look at the trance itself… and what to do with it!

Whatever you are using hypnosis for, the lessons up to now will suit any circumstance. If you’re planning on taking hypnosis to the stage you’ll want to learn some more dynamic instant inductions too but these basic inductions are a great place to start.

So, what to do with your hypnotised client…. You basically have three options of where to take trance. You can do some therapy, you could use the trance for entertainment or you can use it to gather information.

We’ll start off with the therapy option.

What I’m giving you here is only a basic starter, if you want to get more involved with hypnotherapy then do go on and continue your studies.

Whatever problem you might be dealing with, make sure your client seeks conventional medical advice before you do anything. Getting rid of a headache is great, but not if your client later dies of a brain tumour! Read the rest of this entry »

Today we’re going to focus on deepening the trance, so that you can do something with it!

Trance deepeners are as many and varied as trance inductions. And you’ll change what you use to suit the circumstances (and the client). Remember this isn’t like casting a spell, you don’t have to say every word in a certain order for it to work, just follow a basic format and you’ll be fine making it up as you go along!

You can make great use of the hypnotic language patterns that you’ve already learnt to assist the deepening script, so it’s always a good idea to work out a few keys phrases before hand.

Having a handful of phrases at the ready is also great if you can’t think of what to say next. It gives you some time to decide what to do or how to proceed with the induction. Read the rest of this entry »

Today we’re jumping right into the induction process! You’ll be using some of the techniques you learnt yesterday so I hope you had plenty of time to practise.

There are a number of things that cause trance, the mains ones are relaxation, confusion, shock and repetition. Shock and confusion are fantastic when you move onto more dynamic induction techniques, but to get you started we’re gonna focus on relaxation.

People rarely know how to relax, so step one is to go through a relaxation process to really help them to let go. A great way to do this is to have them systematically tense and then relax each muscle group in turn.

Once your client in suitably relaxed you want to take it down a level or two, so begin to really slow things down. Talk slowly and begin to draaaaag out your words. If you’ve done a good job of establishing rapport with your client, as you slow things down they’ll shift into a much deeper state too. Read the rest of this entry »

Today we’re looking at the first stage of the hypnotic process, the pre-induction talk. I know that you probably want to get on to the induction process, but believe me, this stage is much more interesting (and important) than many people give it credit!

The pre-induction talk is your chance to ‘prime’ your client. It appears to be an informal chat used to gather information, but it’s much more than that!

During this stage you’ll be using lots of embedded commands. Some of these will be used to aid the therapy, other to ensure a fast induction. You’ll also be increasing rapport with your client, as well as gathering important information that you can use to create the therapy. All of this goes on without your client realising… from their perspective, you’re just having a friendly chat!

So let’s get sneaky! First off, embedded commands.

Embedded commands are commands that you hide inside your normal conversation and are aimed at a client’s subconscious mind. They slip straight past conscious scrutiny and really help you to manipulate the situation in the direction you want it to go… and this isn’t just great for hypnotising somebody! You can use these for almost anything!

To make your command, first decide what you want a client to do, then hide this command inside a sentence. For example, ‘go into trance’ is a great command and can be hidden in the sentence, ‘When you go into trance you’ll still be able to hear my voice.’

You’ll need to highlight the command so the subconscious mind can pick it out from the rest of the sentence, but do this very subtly; a slight change in voice tonality will be more than enough. Don’t make this too obvious!

Next in the hypnotic language tool box we have presuppositions, you use these to offer a false choice to your client, eg, ‘I don’t know if you will go into trance immediately or take a few minutes to relax yourself into it slowly.’ Here you present two options, yet both are to go into trance, you don’t even consider the option to not enter trance, and neither will they.

Think of some useful commands you can give and practise hiding these in sentences you’re likely to use during the pre-hypnotic chat.

Obviously, you’ll also need to use this time to remove any misconception about trance, make sure your client understands they’ll hear you throughout, otherwise they’ll think it couldn’t have been hypnosis! Also be sure they know they won’t get stuck in trance and you’re not going to make them reveal secrets. This helps to put their mind at ease and makes for a much more agreeable client.

To increase rapport, listen out for the kind of words the client uses, and speak in the same language they do. People generally fall into three categories, some tend to use visual words a lot, such as ‘I see what you mean’ and they think in pictures, other think in sounds, and are likely to say, ‘That sounds good to me’ and some tend to think by feelings, they will say things like, ‘I can really grasp that concept’.

If your client is using visual phrases then you should too, this will dramatically increase rapport levels. And when a client likes you, they trust you… and it’s much, much easier to hypnotise them!

Practise standard phrases in each system so you can use the appropriate one when needed.

You should use this time to get to know our client a little better, be friendly and just let it flow, once you have rapport with your client, begin to slightly slow things down and move everything to a more relaxed place. Your client will instinctively follow your lead to maintain rapport with you. You can see this happening all around you everyday, watch couples chatting, if they are in rapport and one changes position, the other will soon follow.

Now it’s time to start practising! Go and chat to anyone and see how long it takes for you to work out which system they’re using. Then put yourself in that system too! Gain rapport with people and see if you can make them more relaxed, or excited just by changing your own state a little at a time!

And remember to practise those embedded commands! Maybe you can have some fun getting someone to make tea or buy a round of drinks! First off, decide on the command then hide it in a normal sounding sentence.

Welcome to your first hypnotic lesson! It’s great that you’re interested in hypnosis and I know you’ll be eager to get started… today we’re going to get all of the preparation work out of the way, so you can begin the induction process ASAP!

First off, we need to answer the question, ‘What is hypnosis?’

Hypnosis is an altered state of consciousness, there’s nothing mysterious or magical about it and everyone drifts in and out of trance many times a day without even realizing it!

If a person is in hypnosis it is possible to communicate directly with their subconscious mind. The subconscious mind doesn’t critique or reason in the same way that the conscious mind does. It just does what it’s told.

So, if you tell a person that’s fully alert that they’re a ballerina, they’ll compare this to what they already know to be true, and then dismiss it… and tell you that you’re wrong. If they’re in a trance, they just accept it, and will be more than happy to pirouette across the stage! Read the rest of this entry »
