Persistence Tactics are some of the tools you will begin to combine with many other various skills and tools that will begin to draw all your learning together to create a cohesive whole to hypnosis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you learn to combine the four Persistence Tactics with other tactics, signal recognition, the foundations of hypnotic language and rapport skill you will be building the foundation for conversational hypnosis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are four Persistence Tactics; we have covered the first two tactics which are the Hypnotic Triple and Seeding Ideas. These both have to with repetition and are very powerful ways to slip ideas, thoughts and suggestions into the minds of your listeners. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The Hypnotic Triple is the art of stacking up the same word or idea to place a suggestion. If you want <a href="http://findlovesolution.blogspot.com/" style="color: black;">someone to buy</a> something you would relentlessly use the idea of buying, say the word buy and continue to triple up the effect of that one word. The Hypnotic Triple is a great repetitive use of language that will steer your listener to your suggestion.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The second Persistence Tactic we have covered is Seeding Ideas. In this tactic you will place thoughts in the minds of your listeners through casual conversation. Each time you plant an idea you will continue to revisit it and help it to flourish to what will eventually be a full suggestion. This is a technique that will gently coax your subject into feeling comfortable with what may begin as an overwhelming suggestion.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The final two Persistence Tactics are the Laws of Successive Approximations and the Compounding Effect. These will continue to help you build persistent skills into your conversational hypnosis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In the Law of Successive Approximations is used when you want to present a large concept or idea to someone who may seem overwhelming. It is similar in its purpose to the idea of seeding, just a different way to confront the issue of a large change.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The Law of Successive Approximation offers you the idea of breaking the big idea down into smaller pieces that will eventually equal a large result. Breaking down the information down makes it easier to swallow, an easier transition. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">A good example of when to use the Law of Successive Approximation is if you wanted to induce a hallucination. This is a very big step for someone to take when they know logically that the hallucination, whatever it may be, is not really in front of them. By using the Law of Successive Approximation you will be giving them little pieces of the hallucination to picture one at a time. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As you build the different aspects of the hallucination; the smell of it, feel of it, the way it sounds. As you give the listener all these suggestions it will start to become real for them and when it is time to really induce the hallucination they will be more prepared to actually take a larger step and see what it is you have given them bit by bit.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There is a possibility in this process that you may lose your listener; if this happens and it will eventually you only need to backtrack as far as the last point of agreement. In this situation you would then create a new ‘yes set’ and build on that thought and behavior until the person is ready to move on to the next step.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is very easy as you can create a constant pattern. This pattern would consist of taking a small step, step, lose listener, and go back to agreement, ‘yes set’ then move on to the next step. This is an easy pattern to follow as it will create a constant loop for you to travel on. The key is to be sure the listener is following your lead before moving on from the ‘yes set’.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The final Persistence Tactic is the Law of Compounding Effect; this is also very similar to the ‘yes set’. Each time you have your listener put a specific suggestion into action they will in turn become more suggestible. This compares to the ‘yes set’ in that each time your subject says yes to one thing they are more likely to say yes to the next statement. You are building a habit of agreement.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In the Law of Compounding Effect you continue to piggy back suggestions and the person continues to carry out those suggestions as they become more suggestible with each one. The more they carry on in this manner the more resistance is broken down and the more likely it is they will continue responding to your suggestions.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Over time the Law of Compounding Effect and the suggestions made with it will become a natural way to react to the ideas you place before your listener. This is another very powerful tactic in conversational hypnosis and one you will have the ability to use often as it accomplishes two things at once. It not only allows your suggestions to be carried out in thoughts and behaviors it also diminishes resistance.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">These two Persistence Tactics when combined with the other persistence tactics and concepts we have learned will start to bring your knowledge together to create a smooth flow of suggesting behaviors and seeing those behaviors come to life in your subjects.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

These skills will help you to embed your suggestions is a pure clear state of mind. They will make change for the people around you easier and more efficient. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In order to create a new Emotional Trigger in a person there are skills and concepts you must learn to do <a href="http://findlovesolution.blogspot.com/" style="color: black;">first to be successful</a> in implanting an Emotional Trigger. Before you start to practice the concepts in this article be sure to have the principal of 4 Stage Protocol mastered. The 4 Stage Protocol will help you to set the right environment to set a successful Emotional Trigger.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Aside from the 4 Stage Protocol you must also be able to understand and utilize the technique of ‘going first’. Both these concepts will help your subject to enter the clearest state of mind to whatever emotion you are trying to provoke. Once you have mastered these two skills and are well practiced at the other beginning skills you will have the ability to smoothly set successful Emotional Triggers.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you have a listener and you are ready to set an Emotional Trigger in them you must first utilize the 4 Stage Protocol. If you will remember this is used to bypass the critical filter and keep the listener from analyzing your trigger. If you cannot use the 4 Stage Protocol then your attempts at setting triggers may likely go unsuccessfully for the simple fact that the conscious mind will be too involved to let the trigger in.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Your trigger may not even make it past the critical thinking of the person and be rejected before it is even set. Setting Emotional Triggers is an act that needs to happen when the conscious mind is not aware of what you are doing. This way it will take less time and effort to set a successful Emotional Trigger.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">On the other hand it is possible to set a trigger when someone is consciously aware. The danger here is that it will activate the Law of Reversed Effect. The Law of Reversed Effect if you remember is the harder you try at a thing the more likely it is you will fail. The harder they are trying to consciously activate the state you are trying to trigger the more likely it is they will fail.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Another pitfall of setting triggers while the conscious awareness is checked in is that it will take more and more repetitions to set the trigger. The reason for this is you will have to work harder to bypass the critical filters as they will still be in place if the person is consciously aware.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">So the first step in setting Emotional Triggers is to use the 4 Stage Protocol, the second step is to induce a State. This is done by actually giving direction to the person’s inner experiences; this will assist you in accessing hypnotic experiences.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Inducing a State is easiest done by asking questions that will be vivid enough to bring the experience back to life. There are other tools in your language that will help you with this. The main language skills you will want to use are detailed descriptions that bring a set of vivid pictures and feelings to the forefront of the listener’s mind.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">By doing these detailed descriptions in vivid detail you will be triggering an already existing emotional trigger. This is a trigger that was previously developed through environmental experiences or because you created it purposefully in a previous session to trigger the state you are looking for.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Pre-existing triggers, whether created environmentally or by you, will be helpful in your job as a hypnotist especially when working with the same subject consistently. This happens because once a person is used to or recognizes your hypnotic tone or auditory shift to a hypnotic voice it will tend to trigger responses much quicker. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This shift to your hypnotic voice when working with your regular clients will help them in accessing hypnotic experiences.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is why you must develop several different voices. Your speaking voice must have a different tonality than your normal speaking voice otherwise you could send people into trance at inappropriate times. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Think about if you were to always use your hypnotic tone with people who are conditioned to go into trance when they hear it. It can produce dangerous situations for you and your subjects. Hypnotic states should only be accessed when the person is in a situation where they are not consciously concentrating on any other thing.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">At this point we should add that it is important to really polish your skills so that you are aware that you are only setting triggers and inducing hypnotic states when the outcome will have a positive effect. These should be used to bring to light positive changes in a person and because these triggers are set accidentally around you and possibly by you everyday it is important to become aware to only do it when the time is right.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The third step in creating Emotional Triggers is to intensify the State. This is pivotal; you must produce the cleanest, clearest and most pure state of mind possible in order to get the best result in setting your trigger. The stronger your subject’s state the easier it will be to not only set the trigger but also to activate that trigger to access the state again later. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Finally the fourth step in creating an Emotional Trigger is to associate the State to the Emotional Trigger. This is just as it states, you will be attaching the clean state of mind to the emotional trigger you want it associated with. After you accomplish this you will use the ABSAIL formula to link it all to an action that is carried out by the person you are working with. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">After you have accessed a clear state of mind you will set your trigger, this is done simply by firing the trigger. Do whatever it is you want the trigger to be, if it is your voice use that voice. If you want the trigger to be a gesture or mannerism use that specific gesture or mannerism. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Remember that your tone of voice is important and will often work alone with those you have been in hypnosis with before. It is also important to remember that the trigger you set should be something you can use within the context of a normal conversation. This way it is easy for you to fire the trigger later with little to no extra effort.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It is important to also remember that setting and creating Emotional Triggers in people is a powerful action and will be one of the key elements in the basis of your hypnosis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">A quick review of the vast amount of information here is that you will set Emotional Triggers by accessing a pure state of mind. At the height of their emotional experience you will set off the trigger you have chosen, this attaches that state to that trigger meaning whenever you want to access that set of emotions in a person you will use that trigger to do so.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It may be possible that with some subjects you will need to repeat or condition the trigger, this is simply done through repetition. Always keep in mind that the more powerful the state is the easier the trigger will set. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">After you have set your trigger you will want to test it to be sure it was set correctly and accessing the correct emotional state. This is done by breaking the state the person is currently in and re-firing the trigger, then observe. If the person re-enters the same state, meaning you see the signals that show you they have re-entered that state, your trigger was successfully set.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">You will remember these signs from the Signal Recognitions System we reviewed earlier in these articles.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

The tactics involved are many and cover a wide range of skills. As you start to put all these skills together you will begin to get a better vision of how they will all start to fit together for you in the art of hypnosis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Persistence tactics are four of the tools you will learn to use with the other tactics, hypnotic language foundations, rapport skills and signal recognition systems. The four persistence tactics are the Hypnotic Triple, Seeding Hypnotic Ideas, Law of Successive Approximations and the Law of Compounding Effect. In this article we will be focusing of the Hypnotic Triple and Seeding Hypnotic Ideas.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In the words Persistence tactics alone we find the definition of those that are the most persistent are those who are most likely to succeed at a thing. The law of the mind that those that are the most persistent have the things they are persistent with will be deeply ingrained in them and create the biggest changes. This is key as these are two of the persistence tactics that will help to make you most successful.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Persistence will help you to create a set of ideas that will become very powerful when set into a person. Persistence eats away at the resistance wall built by people and helps to break it down so they may be open to new ideas, beliefs and ways of life. In your job as a hypnotist you will have the ability to work <a href="http://findlovesolution.blogspot.com/" style="color: black;">persistence tactics</a> into any conversation; this alone will cause a greater power behind your suggestions and influences.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The first of the two tactics we will be focusing on here is the Hypnotic Triple. This is the idea that when you present an idea to a person you will want to produce a triple effect. Using this causes you to use repetition with your words and language, it will layer the information within a persons mind to make a powerful repetition of the idea you are striving to get across. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Repetition is one of the best ways to get a person to really absorb and remember an idea; in this the unconscious soaks it in and creates a foundation for that idea. Repetition also produces positive reinforcement and that in turn creates reality, the more it is used the more real the idea becomes for the listener.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In the Hypnotic Triple you will put the information to your listener piece by piece and layer by layer. You will want to make your statements smooth and elegant and use language that is believable. If your language is not convincing then your suggestion will not get through to your listener, if it does not get through then there will be no recall of the information.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The most important part of the Hypnotic Triple is that you are creating a triple or repetitive effect. Constantly use the words or a specific word you want your listener to put into action as a part of your suggestion. When this is done smoothly, and in a way that is believable your purpose will get through.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The second Persistence Tactic that we will discuss is the Seeding of Hypnotic Ideas. Seeding is a subtle and powerful way to get your suggestions and ideas in without your listener knowing you have even slipped them past their conscious mind. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Seeding has a sneaky effect; the idea is to casually drop the ideas one by one over a period of time. After each idea is dropped to your listener you will nurture it with other details that will help it grow into a full grown idea of their own. Master hypnotist Milton Erickson was very successful with this tactic in his therapies.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">He would plant the idea in the mind and then keep replanting it repeatedly until the person is ready for the full on question, suggestion or idea to brought to them. If this is done right then down the road after careful nurture of the thoughts and ideas you are planting your subject will be prepared for you to bring the idea to them in a statement. It will no longer be overwhelming to them because the little pieces you have put in their mind have been in there preparing them unconsciously.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Seeding is a useful tactic, especially when you have a change or idea that is shocking or overwhelming. In this tactic you can present the information to the person a little at a time in a way that is less overwhelming to them by casually mentioning it over time, time after time. This is easier to accept because with Seeding you have created a foundation to set the final thought on that will be strong enough to hold it.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">So in these to Persistence Tactics you are learning to use repetition in both; one very consciously and the other quite the opposite. As you practice these tactics you will see that both have a very powerful effect as they must to have been top choices by Milton Erickson.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

You will learn to use these for two different reasons. The first reason to use agreement tactics is to put the critical factor in your subjects mind to sleep. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The critical factor which tells people whether or not something is believable needs to be turned off in order to induce a good trance and to make suggestions that will hold true when the person is not under hypnosis. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is the second reason you will use agreement tactics. Once the critical factor is turned off you will want your suggestions to seem realistic, agreement tactics do just that. They get the listener in the habit of agreeing with you and lend you the authority in their altered state of mind.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The agreement tactics, and there are four of them, build an agreement factor in the listener’s mind. They will help you to open up the side of the mind that likes to agree and make them want to agree with what you are saying.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The four agreement tactics include plausibility, the agreement habit, ‘yes sets’ and piggy backing suggestions. In this article we will look at the plausibility tactic and the agreement habit tactic. We will begin to explore how and why these will add impact to your suggestions when a person is under hypnosis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The first agreement tactic of Plausibility is the idea of getting a person to agree with what you are saying repeatedly so eventually you can introduce an idea that may not be considered a truth. As long as it is a plausible statement they will agree with it because they are already in the habit of agreeing with you.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Agreement at this point is easier because you have put critical factor to sleep and there is no analysis of the idea you are presenting. This in turn allows the listener to keep with the general flow of the conversation without interrupting it to disagree.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The goal here is to have the critical factor turned off as much as possible. The more the critical factor is on the more plausible your statements must be. The more it is off the more implausible your statements can be. When a person is in a full state of trance the plausibility of a statement is no longer required, plausibility can be nonexistent and the subject will still take your statement for truth.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">You can utilize your signal recognition skills here to see how much of your listeners critical factor is in place. Always keep in mind that your listener may seem to be totally awake, but this does not mean their critical factor is awake.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The second agreement tactic that we will be looking at is the Agreement Habit. Agreement habit is essentially based on the concept of ‘going first’. If you remember ‘going first’ is when you create a reality that you immerse yourself in first and then lead your listener through it. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In the Agreement Habit tactic you want to be able to set up a pace and have your listener follow along, agreeing all the way. This sets a pattern inside the head to agree, causing your listener to agree even when they may not agree with the entire statement.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Part of the Agreement Habit is the Agreement Habit Principal which has everything to do with positive reinforcement. What you put into something will help it to flourish and grow. Now this works the same for both positive effects and negative effects. When you reinforce a positive behavior or thought it will grow just as much as if you give attention to a negative behavior or thought which can be counterproductive for your purposes as a hypnotist.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In the agreement habit you will want to provide a response to the positive things and avoid responding to the negative. When you agree with ideas or statements respond with a verbal ‘yes’, nodding your head or even a smile. When you disagree with an idea or statement do absolutely nothing, give it no response at all.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The act of response to the positive things will foster positive reinforcement and cause your subject to make more positive statements than negative ones. People like to get responses, whether they are positive or negative, so by only reacting to the positive thoughts you are greatly improving your agreement with the other person.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Another reason to respond to positive aspects of thoughts and ideas is the Access State Principal. In this principal the idea is that changing moods changes what information within the mind you have access to, as well as influencing the behaviors you exhibit. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you change your mood to a positive mood you will access more positive thoughts and behaviors. Again everyone craves reactions and by altering you mood to receive the reaction that is favorable you will be advancing in the art of hypnosis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Agreement habit and positive reinforcement when used correctly will casually leave behind the negative behaviors or things you do not respond to. These are all extremely powerful ways to induce agreement and keep it going. In this they are consciously registering the agreement and not the disagreement.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There is so much that the agreement habit can do that it is hard to keep it all in your head as you read this. So to review agreement habit unconsciously presents the information you agree with, puts the critical factor out of commission, and sets a pattern of agreement that your listener can easily follow.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Plausibility and agreement habit are powerful tactics that you should perfect in order to become a great hypnotist. You should examine how, when and know why to use them. They assist in the beginnings of bringing out the objectives you have as a hypnotist.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">For more information please visit <a href="http://83d563nfumfp9x6y081mpi366a.hop.clickbank.net/" target="_top">Click Here!</a> </div>Aurahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14344023440612355531noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6128881080489270029.post-31988751033419331582011-05-17T22:27:00.001-07:002011-06-07T10:05:42.851-07:00How Schizophrenics Can Help Your Hypnosis: Binds and Double Binds<div style="text-align: justify;">The art of Conversational Hypnosis is much about language; the ways you use the language, when to use certain skills and how to apply those skills. All of these factors are important to learning how to have a smooth interaction and insert undetected and agreeable suggestions into the mind of your clients.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Stealth Tactics are a way of doing just this. These tactics are used for distracting critical factor or overwhelming it to the point that the suggestion goes in undetected. The stealth tactics you learn here will eventually be combined with all the other language concepts to create a larger picture of how everything works together smoothly to create better lives for everyone.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The final Stealth Tactic you are going to learn is called Binds and Double Binds. The Bind and Double Bind come from a line of thought called the Double Bind Theory of Schizophrenia. This was a theory that came from a famous Anthropologist in the 1970’s named Gregory Bateson. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Bateson investigated the cause of schizophrenia in our society and came up with the Double Bind Theory of Schizophrenia. This theory came to the conclusion that schizophrenia was a way that children developed to cope when presented impossible decisions by their parents. An example would be a parent that beats their child and explains it by saying the violence is just a way I show I love you. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The child is presented with an impossible choice that of a desire to be loved by their parent versus the desire to avoid violence. The study concluded that this impossible choice caused schizophrenic conditions in children presented with these choices.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">So the question comes, how will schizophrenia help you in your hypnosis? The answer is the creation of binds and double binds. As we have just set out a bind is giving someone a choice that doesn’t actually exist, it is an impossible set of choices to choose from. These of course can create some rather unpleasant experiences if you do not proceed correctly with this concept.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Although you are creating the illusion of choice you are not really giving the person you are conversing with a real choice. When you learn to do binds correctly you will make your listener feel empowered by the fact that there is a choice and still be acquiring the information or lack of resistance you initially wanted. This is a way of redirecting resistance in you are giving a choice that implies the very thing you want but gives them a choice about the thing you want. Either way you are getting what you want, it really doesn’t matter which option they end up choosing.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now in a double bind you will use the word “or” to create the actual double bind. Let’s take the example that you are a jewelry sales person and you say to a customer, “Would you like your diamond set in gold OR silver?” In this double bind you are giving the customer a choice but you are still implying that the customer will be buying the diamond. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It is important that you are aware of the word “or” so you can consciously create double binds as well as notice when they are being used on you. If you recognize when someone is using a double bind on you, once you recognize it there is a way out. If you decide not to accept the bind or double bind on any level you will be denying it and creating a new freedom for yourself. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now double binds are very common and at times it is not negative to fall into one. Regardless of whether you are deciding to accept or deny the double binds you hear daily you can still maintain awareness for them. Remember that a double bind is an illustration of choice, usually using the word or to separate the options.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Within this Stealth Tactic there is a Special Tactic included called Conscious-Unconscious Double Binds. This is merely a way of using double binds hypnotically. In this concept you will be able to allow some aspects of the subject’s behavior to be controlled consciously and others unconsciously. No matter which way it goes, which behaviors are being consciously and unconsciously controlled the behavior is still being implied.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Within this same concept of Conscious-Unconscious Double Binds it is important to understand that you can do things two different ways. We can all do things two different ways, those are unconsciously or consciously. You can read the words on this paper focus on them and think about them or you can read them and daydream about what it would be like to put them into action.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In understanding binds and double binds it is important to recognize the conscious and unconscious minds and how they work. As hypnotists we work with the conscious and unconscious minds on a regular and consistent basis, however defining these is difficult. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now the trouble here is no one really knows how the human mind works. There is no philosopher or psychological researchers who have been able to define the human mind in concrete terms. There are so many ways to interpret the word mind that giving it a definition is extremely difficult.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Although no one can accurately and concretely say what actually happens inside our heads we know from life experience that certain results come from certain effects. As to why the results are what they are can only be theorized about but we know that trauma causes pain, denial and other defense mechanisms. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As hypnotists it is important for you to have an understanding of the conscious and unconscious minds.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">A simple way to describe the process of the mind we know are that consciousness is the type of awareness you can focus on. It is known that the conscious mind can hold up to 5-9 ideas, experiences or thought processes at one time. The conscious mind is also responsible for making choices and plans.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The unconscious mind however is responsible for a huge amount of tasks. It holds all our memories, experiences, insights, habits and wisdoms that we have built up over the span of our lives. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">We have discovered that it is safe to say that everything that happens within our minds and bodies are unconscious or semi-unconscious events. Our unconscious is the master controller but will also take commands from the conscious mind. The instructions that the unconscious will take from the conscious must be presented in the right way in order for it to stick; this is the art of suggestion. We either made suggestions to ourselves or others make suggestions to us. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As a hypnotist you can disguise those suggestions with Stealth Tactics, and one of those is the bind and the double bind we have discussed here.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

They are an unconscious response that is triggered within the body to develop a physical or emotional behavior. As a hypnotist you will want to be able to imbed these triggers in your subjects so you will have the ability to produce behaviors in them that will lead to the positive outcomes set in your goals.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Emotional triggers were discovered at the turn of the century, sometime between 1901 and 1902. A Russian researcher named Ivan Pavlov is credited with the discovery of unconscious responses, which are in essence an emotional trigger. In his experiment known to us now as Pavlov’s Dogs emotional triggers were presented to the world.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In this experiment Pavlov would ring a bell directly before sending food to them through a shoot. The dogs developed an emotional trigger in a short period of time. The dogs began to associate the ringing of the bell with the expectation of food. After a while just the sound of the bell would cause the dogs to salivate. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This was a profound discovery in that it astounded people to actually be able to see such an unconscious event controlled by the nervous system to take place on cue. Salivation is a bodily function that can be consciously controlled. It is an automatic nervous system function that was being triggered due to the ringing of a bell. It was a very graphic example of emotional triggering and one that is still talked about in history today.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Before Pavlov and his dogs were recognized for this discovery of unconscious responses or emotional triggers there was an American doctor by the name of William Twitmeyer who is considered the unsung hero of discovery in unconscious responses. William Twitmeyer discovered the Knee-jerk reflex. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The knee-jerk reflex is when you firmly tap the soft part of the knee cap to extract a reflex in which the leg jumps and straightens out. Twitmeyer also realized in his discovery that after around 50 to 100 times of repeating the process just holding the hammer in a position that suggested he was about to tap the knee the person’s leg would automatically jump and straighten out.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This accidental and unconscious response was the first discovery of unconscious responses and emotional trigger. It is also a very powerful example of an unconscious trigger that was either intentionally or unintentionally implanted in the patient.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This research by both Twitmeyer and Pavlov shows us today that there is a truth in the conditioning of unconscious responses and emotional triggers. These are referred to as post hypnotic suggestions. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Post hypnotic triggers are emotional triggers that can be set by a hypnotist within another individual to create a specific reaction. Many times these triggers are created by environments and sometimes they are created unintentionally by other people. No matter how they come about they are there and they can be created by you.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Emotional triggers that are created by our environments naturally occur on a daily basis. This can be something as simple as hearing a song that brings back specific memories of a time in your life. Any time you hear that particular song you are instantly taken back to a certain memory or set of memories. When this happens you are reliving the memory as you think of the events and feelings it brings to mind.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Some very common examples of naturally occurring emotional triggers are songs, the smell of perfume or cologne, smell of cookies baking, pictures, phrases or even the voice of someone familiar. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">One of the most common examples of an emotional trigger is in advertising. The advertisements we see everyday utilize this principal by way of packaging. They access the unconscious response through the recognition of boxes in the advertisements, when we see those boxes or packages on the shelves of the supermarket we instantly recognize them. The package seems to stand out from the others surrounding it. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is just one example of the many unconscious responses and emotional triggers that are common to us everyday. It is your job as a hypnotist to learn how to recognize and develop this skill for yourself so you too can create these emotional triggers in the people around you.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In order to do this you must learn to create your own hypnotic triggers that will access emotional states from the people you are helping. Triggering people into an emotional state is a powerful technique to learn. It will give you the ability to obtain certain behaviors or thoughts put into action from the people around you.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In learning how to implant an emotional trigger in your subjects you must take certain specific steps to ensure you are doing it correctly. The first of those steps is to follow the 4 Stage Protocol. In the 4 Stage Protocol you will absorb the attention, bypass the critical thinking, activate an unconscious response and be rewarded with a desired behavior or thought pattern.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">After you have successfully done this you will have set the scene for creating an emotional trigger later on. Before you can actually set the emotional trigger there are conditions that you must be aware of in order to be skilled in this area.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The first condition you must we aware of is that you must have access to a clear state of mind. Without this you will have difficulties in the future accessing the exact strong state of mind you were originally seeking. If you want your listener to relax you must access it fully, there is no room for mixed states of mind here. Whatever state of mind you have access to when you set your trigger will be the state of mind that is presented once your trigger is fired.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">After you have successfully done this you will want to continue with the next condition. This is to set the trigger. The trigger you are setting can be anything you can work in to a casual conversation. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It can be a word, gesture, smell taste, touch or sound. However it is good to know that while you can use any of these the easiest to work with are the touch, sound and sight triggers. Examples of these are simple. Do something they can see you do, hear you do or feel you do physically. Once you have decided on a trigger you set the trigger simply by doing it.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">After you have set the trigger you will want to condition it through repetitive actions. This is the third condition for setting an emotional trigger.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The final step and one of the most important is to test the trigger. You can do this by simply breaking the concentration with a distraction. It doesn’t matter how you do this as long as you leave them with a clear state of mind. This is important because once they are in a clear state of mind you will set off your trigger once again and then watch to see if it has taken effect. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you fire the trigger and the previous emotional state returns you will know you have accomplished this short term goal of setting an emotional trigger. If the state does not return you simply need to start over from the beginning and try again. Keep in mind this is a very powerful technique of accessing states of mind and should be done with caution.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: justify;">If the critical factor is not bypassed or put to sleep then the resistance of your subject will be in place and your suggestions will not make it through. Once you use the agreement tactics to get past the critical factor it will open the doors of suggestion. You will be able to present information, ideas, thoughts and suggestions to your subject that will seem completely plausible to them in their altered state of mind.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The first of the 4 Agreement Tactics is Plausibility, which is stated as when a person is in the habit of agreeing with you then the next statement doesn’t have to be one they would find as true as your last statements. Plausibility works on a sliding scale depending on the depth of trance a person is experiencing.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The second Agreement Tactic is the Agreement Habit. The Agreement Habit is based on ‘going first’. This is to immerse yourself in an idea before you invite your subject in so the experience is real for them. This is important for the Agreement Habit as it is to get someone in the habit of agreeing with you. You cannot do this fully if they do not believe you agree with the thoughts you are presenting to them yourself.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The third and fourth Agreement Tactics are brought to us by a master hypnotist Milton Erickson as he used these often in his hypnosis. The ‘Yes Set’ and Piggy Backing of Suggestion were among Erickson’s favored techniques.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The third of the Agreement Tactics, which is the ‘Yes Set’, is very useful in getting agreement from your subject’s. In a ‘Yes Set’ you will begin with statements that are true so you are activating the part of the brain that enjoys agreeing. Once you have gotten a person to start to agree with you it is likely that they will continue. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The ‘Yes Set’ can be demonstrated in three different ways. The first way to use a ‘yes set’ is to repeat what the person is saying to you. This is exactly as it sounds, use what the person has said to you by repeating it back to them so they agree that that is what they said or meant. This is accomplishing the goal of the ‘yes set’ by activating the agreement part of the brain.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The second way to put a ‘Yes Set’ into action is to state the obvious facts. Use in your conversation statements that are verifiable facts. If there is no question that what you are saying is a fact then you will again activate the yes neurology in the subject’s brain causing agreement.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The third and final way to produce a ‘Yes Set’ is to make truisms. Truisms are sayings that a culture has conditioned its inhabitants to believe as unmistakably true. The statements are a way that people view the world or a part of the world. These statements will largely be found true by almost all people you speak to.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The three different types of ‘Yes Sets’ are used very often in conversational hypnosis. This is partly because they are ideas that you can work into a conversation, they cause agreement and they can be manipulated to fit almost any context you may be working with your subject in.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The fourth Agreement Tactic is the Piggy Back Principal. This is the idea of attaching suggestions to other statements or ideas that are already going out to your listener. This is a very popular and successful way to get suggestions into the minds of your subjects. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is done by first getting your listener into agreement with you, this can be done through compliments, yes sets, following along with their thoughts and repeating back. You goal here is to create an environment they are willing to accept, and then you add a suggestion to it. Compliment them on the great job they have been doing and then add how they can improve on it.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This works because as humans we are always willing to accept praise and agreement. And the fact is if you are accepting one part of the statement you must be accepting the whole statement on some unconscious level. Now that they have unknowingly accepted your suggestion they will at some point bring it into their behaviors, thoughts or actions.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The best part about this agreement tactic is the more you do it the stronger and more powerful your suggestion becomes. You can piggy back as many facts and suggestions as you want as long as you keep the meanings clear so as not to confuse your subject.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">You can also piggy back suggestions onto yes sets. This is done simply by stating a single or series of verifiable facts and then adding a suggestion on to the end of the last statement. An example of this would be, “When you get out of the car, lock the doors.” This works because you will inevitably get out of the car at some point and because the mind accepts this as true you will be more likely to now lock the doors as well.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The third way you can piggy back suggestions is to present feedback to your subject that will have them accept it, this should be done in a smooth and elegant manner of speaking. This utilizes positive reinforcement by first creating a yes set, then adding a compliment and then attaching a suggestion to the end. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This way of piggy backing is successful because we all enjoy and accept compliments. Compliments in this sample are somewhat of a sugar coating for the suggestion; you cannot accept the compliment without also accepting the suggestion. Compliments also tend to extract positive behaviors from us and make us more agreeable and accepting anyway.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The Agreement Tactics of the Yes Set and Piggy Backing Suggestions are very important and useful in conversational hypnosis. They were among the top choices of the master hypnotist Milton Erickson. He brought us the perfected art of these two Agreement Tactics and used them often in his hypnosis practice as you should consider doing in yours.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: justify;">High status is the role that you will strive for in your hypnotic relationships, but it is also important to know when to play a low status role too. The idea is to gain complete comfort from your subjects in a low status role before attempting to move into a high status role. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">After you have attained the trust of your subjects and can attain the role of high status in each relationship you will want to maintain it. This is done by sending out the signals that are subconsciously associated with a high status person. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">These signals include calm movements, use of space, exposing the vulnerable parts and steady eye contact. These principals will be the background for the next step to learn which is to use them consistently in order to boost your authority.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now that you know how to behave in a way that people will perceive you as high status, you will want to learn how to activate this instantly. This is where the Consistency Principal is put into action. The principal of consistency is defined as this: when a person makes a declaration in public of a thing, then it is certain that they will have to act in a way to remain consistent with what they have said. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The easy way to say this is that once someone has stated something publicly to someone in high status they will feel that they need to fulfill that statement by acting according to it. Another part of this is to add that the more authority or higher status you are the more pressure the subject feels to live up to the standard they have set in front of you.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is important for hypnotists as the more authority you have the harder they will work to attain the goals they have set in front of you. This also means that once they have made a change they wanted in their life they will work harder to maintain it.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This brings us the idea of Consistency Tactics, the first of which is to Demonstrate Authority. In using this tactic you will be able to test the willingness of your subjects, and anyone really, to go into trances. These are also widely known as suggestibility tests. When consistency tactic of demonstrating authority is used correctly it will give the hypnotist a great range of authority from the participant. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">These tactics are also used on other people to see the amount of resistance they have to going into an altered state of mind. In this manner they can be used almost anywhere to demonstrate your knowledge on the subject of hypnosis. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The consistency tactic of demonstrating authority will help in the manner that it is a quick and easy way to test suggestibility. Once you do this successfully to one person in a room full of people they will usually no longer question your knowledge on the subject and trust that you are an expert in the area. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As humans it is our nature to trust those who prove they are educated in a field. In fact we are so trusting of this that once a person proves they are an expert in one field we generally will think they know a vast amount of knowledge in many different areas of life.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Another way that this skill is useful is that when you open yourself to show something to a crowd of people you automatically take on the role of a leader. This will add social pressure on you to perform but it will elevate your status in the room to one of high status very quickly.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It is important in this skill to find what works for you. Make sure you are performing something you can accomplish, so as not to appear uneducated on the topic. When you are successful in your ability to perform for strangers with social pressure and you can accomplish your objectives people will start to respond to you as an authority figure.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The concepts we have just gone over are very important in conversational hypnosis and are key in the elevation of your authority even in outside environments such as social gatherings. The simple need to posses a strong authority over people in conversational hypnosis is a strong one that will ease the time and effort put into hypnosis. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">By creating ways to add impact to your authority you will be able to win people over more quickly and reach the goal of offering your suggestion. Once you accomplish that and you have the authority the suggestions you implant will be more powerful for your subjects and the people around you.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

These tactics will help you to change the lives of those around you for the better, as well as your own. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As you learn how to use power tactics you will want to keep in mind the different concepts of hypnotic language foundations, rapport skills and signal recognition skills. Keep these in the back of your mind because as you learn power tactics you will want to start to combine them all to create a powerful way of being a hypnotist.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It is important to realize that at some point you will want to converge all the information you are learning in to smooth flowing patterns that will enhance your overall ability to be a great hypnotist.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Power tactics, which are very old and very useful, in hypnosis are the strategies that allow you to become the authority in a person’s trance. They enable you to take on the role of high status, which is our first tactic.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The power tactic of ‘High Status’ is a role you will take on with your subject in order to get them to follow your suggestions. It is important to note here that high status has nothing to do with your person; it is not about wealth or moral judgment. It is simply a place in the set of roles you take on in society everyday. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">High status, equal status and low status are all different roles we play within the relationships we have. Some people are natural high status people; they are comfortable and are good at taking control of the conversation. Others are low status people and are more of a passenger in conversations, they chime in when necessary but other than that mostly agree with what is being said by others.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The different roles we choose varies depending on the people we are with and the situations we are in. It is important for you as a hypnotist to understand these roles and know when you need to play that of high or low status. The best part of choosing a role to play after you understand them is that it gives you the most flexibility in conversations you have and the people you are working with.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now of course as a hypnotist you will want to be in a role of high status, this will make you the authority figure. As the authority figure people will want to do what you suggest and follow your advice.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The problem with this is that some people are not flexible in the types of people they feel comfortable dealing with. There are people who are comfortable being low status and others who are only comfortable in high status.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">You will need to determine what type of person you are dealing with to determine which role you will need to initially take on. I say initially because you will want to eventually be of high status in your hypnotic relationships.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">However there will be time you need to start as a low status person. If you are dealing with a person who distrusts or dislikes those of high status you will take on a low status role until the person trusts and likes you. They need to feel comfortable with you. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you take on the role of low status you will be less assertive, feed them information subconsciously and set up the correct frames to gain their trust.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you take on the role of a high status you will need to include two distinct concepts in your authority role. These are your body language and behavior, which include your tonality. These are the two things that will signal others as to what status you are in, they will cause a difference in how you are perceived by the other people around you.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you give off signals of a high status people will respond to you more powerfully. This is a good sign but it is also important to remember the situations where you need to play low status and change your signals to accommodate that need. This is something you will have to do for as long as it takes until those around you are comfortable dealing with a high status person.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It is also possible to need to change status when dealing with the same person depending on the situation you are in. This is a powerful tactic in order to break down resistance.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now how do you become a high status person? What mannerisms does a high status person give off? You have encountered them countless times, and more than likely interact with high status people all the time.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">People who are in high status role are those who send out signals of relaxed manner. They are very comfortable with themselves and are confident in the things they do and say. Some distinguishing characteristics of high status people are easy to spot.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">High status individuals exhibit Calm Movements. These people are calm and unhurried; they do not rush through their actions, words or thoughts. And those around them respond to these people as if they are in control of the situations they are in. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you goal is to be a high status role in your hypnotic relationships then you need to take on these behaviors. It is important to avoid being jumpy, jerky or nervous. Many low status people will have repetitive movements or ticks, they will wring their hands or bounce a leg constantly, and these are behaviors to avoid.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Another high status signal is the way you use the space around you. High status people use their space widely. Low status individuals take up as little space as possible by crossing their arms and legs and often sitting in corners. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">High status people will use large motions, stand in a room, sit in a room, and even lean back in chairs. High status people are also not intimidated by occasionally invading others private space. They will give you a pat on the back or unsuspected hug, they simply feel comfortable naturally.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The third signal of a high status person is that they will expose the vulnerable parts of their body. As humans we have vulnerable part we are constantly subconsciously aware of; these being the throat, abdomen and groin. When we feel threatened we will unknowingly protect these areas. We may cross our arms or legs, even if the attack is only a verbal one we will attempt to protect ourselves. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Those in high status will leave these areas of the body open or exposed. They feel confident enough in their defenses to not be worried. Often they are so comfortable in their environments that they simply feel no danger of an attack.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The fourth and final signal of a high status person is steady eye contact. One of the most interesting things about human beings is that you can often tell exactly what emotion they are having by looking at their eyes. The eyes are directly connected to the brain and therefore give away many clues to your thinking. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Low status individuals will have nervous eyes, darting around, unable to focus on one thing for too long. High status people will be able to fix their eyes on something; a person, place, thing or point in space without a problem. They will have an unwavering steady gaze that is the signature of their calm state of mind.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In order to take on a high status role you must study and embody these traits. In doing this people who are not intimidated by others of high status will feel more comfortable around you. You will find they are even more willing to open themselves up to you in many different situations.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

Not only are they a way for you to keep the conversation going they get your subject into the habit of agreeing with what you are saying. <br />
<br />
Without agreement the person you are making suggestions to will not bring them in as true ideas that they can use to change their lives. There must be something in the words you suggest that they find agreement with on some level in order to put them into action.<br />
<br />
Agreement tactics will help you to really get into your subjects head. One of the first things an agreement tactic will assist you with is to distinguish the alertness of a person’s critical factor. <br />
<br />
If the critical factor is in full swing they will still be able to criticize and analyze the information you are giving to them. Not only does the critical factor turn on the analysis of ideas it also starts to conform them to the ways in which that person views the world. They will see your suggestions only as they feel the world should work and not for the simplicity they need to make changes.<br />
<br />
If they are doing this it may be difficult for them to find agreement in your suggestions and there fore they will not take. The bottom line on critical factor is that if it is awake and functioning it will prevent change in your subject, which is the opposite of your goals as a hypnotist.<br />
<br />
The answer to this is to have the ability to bypass the critical factor with your words, put that part of the mind to sleep. Once you have accomplished this you will be able to present information to the person and make everything seem acceptable on the basis of it can be. Everything needs to be taken in as plausible and possible so your suggestions will stick.<br />
<br />
Agreement is the art of putting the critical factor to sleep. This will make it easier to bring in new ideas and create new realities where change can occur. There are four agreement tactics that will help you to lull the critical factor to sleep and we will do a short introduction of them here, these will be discussed more in depth in another article.<br />
<br />
The first agreement tactic we will discuss is Plausibility. Once people are in the habit of agreeing with you it is much easier to get them to agree to ideas that they may not have completely agreed with if you were to just start with and state that idea. <br />
<br />
This has happened to most people when trying to convince someone to see something our way. Take a moment to remember conversations you have had in the past, maybe you were in deep conversation with a friend on a point you view differently or debating a topic with a work colleague. <br />
<br />
When you do this you would first lay out the ideas of the topic that you know they agree with, and then you would slowly work into the parts that they may or may not agree with and finally hit them with the big point that you are debating.<br />
<br />
Now you may or may not have been successful in getting the agreement from them. If you were not this segment will help you with that ability.<br />
<br />
In plausibility the easiest way to get a person to agree with you is if they are already in the flow of agreeing with the things you are saying. Once you have made several statements they can agree with your next statement can be one that they would find as true as your first statements. If it is a plausible idea they will tend to agree or just go along with it because you have turned off a part of their critical factor.<br />
<br />
It is important to know that plausibility is based on a sliding scale; the more of an altered state of mind the person is in the less plausible your statements must be. The less entranced they are the more plausible your statements must be. It works to your advantage if you can get and hold a good altered state of mind.<br />
<br />
If your subject is in a full state of trance then the plausibility of your statements can be zero and they will still be in a full state of agreement with your suggestions.<br />
<br />
The second agreement tactic is the Agreement Habit. This tactic is largely based on the ‘go first’ concept. In going first you will start to create realities for your subjects to enter into and share with you. <br />
<br />
This is vital as it is hard to get a person to believe a set of circumstances if you yourself do not believe them. You can act as if you believe them however your sub-communications will show people that you are not truly in agreement with your own ideas, or those you are trying to convey.<br />
<br />
In this you need to take the lead and believe your thoughts and ideas first so as to pave the way for the people you are lending the suggestions and ideas to. Once you are in agreement with the suggestions or stories then your external behaviors will show this agreement.<br />
<br />
The third agreement tactic is the ‘Yes Set’. This is a technique that is used simply to get your subjects in the habit of saying yes. Start with true simple statements that are verifiable facts, yet fit into the frame work of your conversation. This is important; after all you are using conversational hypnosis.<br />
<br />
These ‘yes sets’ are created by stating the obvious, repeating what they have said and stating truisms. Truisms are ideas that are generally found true and created by the culture you live in. <br />
<br />
The fourth and final agreement tactic is the ‘Piggy Back Principal’. Piggy backing is simply attaching a statement to an idea that is already going on or in. If your subject accepts an entire statement because the first part is true then they will on some level accept the rest of the statement that has made it in. <br />
<br />
The trick in this tactic is to create contexts that your subject will want to accept. This is done by practicing the concepts we have been reviewing. You can create acceptable contexts by using compliments, yes sets, agreement habits and following the subject’s line of thinking.<br />
<br />
At the end of each of these simply attach a suggestion. You are attaching a suggestion to something that is going to take place regardless. “The sun is out today and it will be a great day to start your diet.” The first part of the statement is a verifiable fact and the second part is going in simply because the first is true and correct.<br />

The skills of what to do and how to do it will need to be perfected if you are to become a great hypnotist. The different performance principals of hypnosis you should be practicing to sharpen your skills. <br />
<br />
The first four performance principals we have talked about are worth perfecting. Principals of going first, meaning you first immerse your self into the idea that you wish your subject to become a part of through your language. <br />
<br />
Squeezing the meaning from your words, in which you make the words you use sound and feel like the true nature of their meanings. <br />
<br />
Emphasis, which is learning when and what words to lean on in order to accentuate your point. <br />
<br />
And finally, the principal of rhythm and tone, in which you add a unique style to your conversation that will help your listener to get lost in your voice and language. These are all ways to enhance your performance as a hypnotist so you are a part of what you are doing with a subject. <br />
<br />
These principals not only help lead your subject through a trance they will help you become the authority figure within their trance. By becoming the authority figure you will be able to control your subjects trance and produce the outcome that is favorable for you and the subject.<br />
<br />
Now that you are acquainted with the four principals of performance you will need to learn how to use tonality to enhance your hypnosis abilities even further. One of the tonality concepts that will help here is to develop a trance voice.<br />
<br />
Developing a trance voice is not a tool that will immediately switch your subject’s brain off and put them under a sort of instant spell. What it will do is help you to develop a tonality to your voice that will educate the unconscious mind as to when to go into trance.<br />
<br />
Music is a prime example of this. When you hear certain songs or types of music it brings in a flood of memories, thoughts and ideas. This happens because the music has set off a certain trigger in the head that recalls related experiences. As your subjects work with you they will begin to unconsciously recognize your trance voice and eventually learn to enter an altered state of mind on its cue.<br />
<br />
You will be learning to develop different types of trance voices that will signal to your subjects when they should or should not be in trance. This dropping into trance when they hear a certain tonality in your voice will happen because their unconscious mind will suggest that it is time to come in to play.<br />
<br />
Your hypnotic voice or trance voice should be of a tone that people will enjoy listening to. It should be easy to portray your words smoothly and elegantly when you use this voice. It is also important to remember to only use your trance voice when you want people to go into trance. You should never use this voice if you are speaking with someone who needs to be concentrating on a specific task such as driving or operating heavy equipment.<br />
<br />
As you develop your trance voice you will notice that emotional triggers will assist you in setting the stage for your hypnotic voice to the full extent.<br />
<br />
Tonality is a large part of trance voice. Your tone of voice can range between three types; upward inflection, straight and level and downward intonation. When you are using any one of these three different types of tone your meanings will change and your message will change.<br />
<br />
If you are using upward inflection your statements will take on the sound of a question. Using a straight and level tone will make a simple statement. And if you incorporate downward intonation, usually at the end of a sentence, you words will take on that of a command. <br />
<br />
The questioning tonality will help you in developing what we call a nonverbal ‘Yes Set’. This is pretty straight forward; you are using tonality to ask a question that the person will inherently answer yes to, or nod in agreement. <br />
<br />
The yes set is a great way to check in on your subject to make sure they are following along with you. You can also use it to list a series of items, ideas or thoughts. The yes set will more likely than not force you’re subject to keep up with you as you speak.<br />
<br />
Another way to use the questioning tonality is to use it as a tool to ‘Create Doubt’ in your subjects mind. You can cast a shadow of doubt on many things and ideas simply by breaking one simple question down into several well emphasized questions.<br />
<br />
You can also create doubt by repeating the statements of the people around you and adding emphasis to different areas of the repeated statement. When you repeat with emphasis what someone has just said to you, you are accessing a powerful way in which you can cast doubt or suspicion without actually having to say that is what you are doing.<br />
<br />
The hypnotic principal of ‘Imply Don’t Assert’ is another way to use the questioning tonality. This is a powerful way of getting your point across again without actually having to state the exact words. Implication is always more pointed than actually saying what you would imply. <br />
<br />
‘Keep Em Talking’ is a questioning tonality that uses nonverbal communication along with a question or statement to extract more information from a person. If you make a statement or question and add raised eyebrows to your facial features you are nonverbally asking for them to add new information to what they have just said. Because you are adding no new information in this, just repeating what they have said along with a nonverbal cue, they will automatically be inclined to add more information for you.<br />
<br />
The next type of tonality that is useful is the command tonality. The command tonality is used to cement everything into place; it gives you an instruction to make the thought or idea a permanent one. It activates the side of the brain that wants to respond to you by fulfilling a request.<br />
<br />
This tonality will not make everyone you command do everything you command them to. It will however entice people to do things when you do the right steps. In command tonality you will be most successful if you use downward intonation and use them with a question. This will get the most bang for your buck. Experiment with a question, any question, as you do so change the upward and downward intonations in your voice as you state the command.<br />
<br />
You will see that ‘command tone down’ has a powerful implication where action is being asserted. This is a great tool for conversational hypnosis and one you should practice. When you start to master how to ‘command tone down’ you will see a reaction in people that many want to do what you are telling them to.<br />
<br />
Questioning and command inflections will greatly improve the level of response you get from people. They will tend to respond more powerfully to what you are asking if you learn how to use tonality and inflection to phrase your statements.<br />

It is important to not only know what you are doing but how to do it. As we look at tonality you should always remember that only 7% of the meaning derived from your words actually comes from the word itself. The other meanings, and vast majority, come from the tonality you use and the body language that accompanies your speaking.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It is also important to remember as we move on with this subject that you must always begin with the first two principals of performance being ‘go first’ and squeezing the meanings from your words. Both of these principals when paired with the next two principals of emphasis and rhythm and tone will be monumental in perfecting your performance as a hypnotist.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The third performance principal that you will need to know how to perform is the emphasis you put on different words and how that emphasis affects your language. Emphasis is when you lean on a word with your voice. You make that word stand out in your statement. This can be done in writing by underlining or italicizing words. When you do it with your speaking though it has a much more dramatic effect.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">For example, take the simple statement “Did you drive the car to the store today?”. Here I have written it with a very even tone, there appears to be no emphasis made on any particular word. However, if I said “Did you drive the car to the store today? The meaning of the entire statement goes from a simple question to an inquiry about who drove the car to the store. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Let’s look at one more example of the same statement to really drive the point home here. “Did you drive the car to the store today?” here the meaning becomes more of a question or surprise that the car was driven to the store today. If you took each word of the same statement and put emphasis on them one at a time while reading it you will see that the meaning of the statement will change consistently to some degree. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In this we learn that your emphasis and how you say things to others will automatically show them what you find to be important information in the sentence. When you emphasize words you begin to open the process called ‘multiple levels of information’. This means simply that you can be saying one thing on one level and have a completely different meaning on another level. This is something that naturally happens when you speak and change your tonality.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">While the emphasis you put on words often happens naturally it is also important to do this purposefully. When you are performing the art of hypnosis you can use emphasis to drive the meaning of each word you use into your listener. This use of emphasis will show the listener that there is a great deal of importance behind whatever it is you are saying.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">A good example here is the difference between two different statements whose meanings are generally the same when we look at the words alone. But when we look at the way the words are said the statement becomes much more important. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">“If you don’t listen to me you could get hurt.” </div><div style="text-align: justify;">Or</div><div style="text-align: justify;">“I need you to listen to what I am saying, it is important so you don’t get hurt.”</div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you say both these statements you will hear the differences in the messages.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As you practice this principal you will begin to notice the effect it has on others depending on how you lean on the words. You will also likely notice an effect it has on yourself as well, both as you say things and as others make statements to you. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The fourth performance principal is about rhythm and tone. When you are putting someone into trance it helps to have a rhythm to your speaking, rhythms as we have learned help to take us away, relax us and let our minds drift. This principal is using tonality and rhythm together to create smoothness to your language, also called a ‘trance rhythm’. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Trance rhythm has the same effect as when you listen to music, it creates an altered state of consciousness where the rhythm of the language pulls you into it. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Speaking in rhythm is much like emphasis as it changes the way you are perceived by those around you. The ways in which you change the rhythms of your speech will let your subjects know when they should and should not be in trance. There are many examples of this in poetry and music. A very good example of how rhythm can unconsciously pull you in is in the film, Cyrano de Bergerac.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In this film the manner of speech was written on poetic couplets. It is not so much poetry that you would hear it and notice rhyming and beat, however the rhythm of the couplets draws your ear to hear the elegance behind the language. It is very subtle yet very powerful.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It is important to improve your performance as a hypnotist by practicing rhythm and tone. Play with the language you use and building different rhythms into your speech. You can play with rhythms and tones that signify all sorts of feelings; excitement, sorrow, quiet, fast. Remember that your body must be in tune to the rhythms you are using. When your body and mind have the rhythm your language will be expressed with much more ease and clarity.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

When you are working in the area of hypnosis it is not only important to know what you are doing but perfecting the ways or the HOW you do it is vital. Know how and what to do will create an unbreakable base for you as a hypnotist.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Hypnosis is a performance art so learning the performance part of hypnosis is a given. Part of performance in learning hypnosis is to understand the elements of hypnotic language. One of those elements is tonality. Tonality is the key to unlocking a great deal of information in hypnosis. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It is vital that you spend time learning what words to say but equally important to know how to say those words in order to get your point across. A helpful study by Mr. Birdwhistell is the study of how the actual meanings of words were broken down between words, tonality and body language. The conclusion of the study was surprising for many.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The study showed that choice of words is very important but the words themselves really only accounted for 7% of the meaning in the word. However the way you say the word, or the tonality you use, was responsible for 38% of the words meaning. And astonishing 55% of the meaning derived from statements and words comes from the body language you use, your nonverbal communications.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This study tells us that if you focus only on the choice of words you use you will more than likely be a poor hypnotist. However if you focus on the words and the performance of those words you will capture more of the elements to becoming a great hypnotist.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In order to study the performance area of hypnotism you must first understand that hypnosis is something you do with a person. You must learn how to convey the presentation of your statements and this is where we start.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The use of differing tonality in the language you use as a hypnotist will change the meanings of the statements you are saying to your subjects. It is important to play with the different ways you can say words as the meanings will change as your delivery of the word changes. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Take the word ‘no’ for instance. There is technically only one meaning for the word itself; however you can change that meaning if you change your tone as you say the word. Play with it say ‘no’ in ways that would imply yes or maybe. There is a way to say ‘no’ that is stern and serious and a way to say it playfully and so on and so forth.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now that we know the importance behind the way we say different things we can go over the principals of performance. The first principal of performance is to ‘go first’. This is the best and most simple way to deliver your statements and words accurately and with fine precision.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">‘Going first’ is a good place to start because it is important to really feel what you are going to say in order to make it true for your subject. In ‘going first’ you will immerse yourself in the emotion, situation or come to agree with the story you will be telling, this will help your story in delivering it in a believable way. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you are not in the correct state of mind, meaning one of agreement with your statements, you will not be convincing. Every thought you have will always affect you emotionally and behaviorally. For instance if you are trying to imply that there is danger in a situation and you are conveying a feeling of carefree happiness your point will be lost to the true emotion you are feeling. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is where BMIR’s come into play. BMIR is a shorter way of saying Behavioral Manifestation of an Internal Representation. What this means is when you think of something, every time your thoughts change it will show the new thought through your movements, body language, breathing and tonality. Because of this reaction to thought the best way to perform anything is to enter that particular state of mind. Imagine yourself in the situation, use the same tone of voice you would if you were actually going through the motions of that particular situation. This will help you to accurately deliver the thoughts and ideas you want to. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">So this was a vast amount of information for a simple task, to review ‘going first’ you must first take the hypnotic theme you are working with and put it into motion within your mind. Use your imagination to put yourself into situations where what you want to convey is true. When you do this the delivery will be accurate representation of the feelings, ideas and thoughts you are pursuing.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The second performance principal we are going to cover here is the principal of squeezing the meaning. In this factor of performance you are going to do just as it sounds, squeeze all of the meaning out of key words you use in your language. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In order to accomplish this you will want to match the tone and feel of your voice with the feelings or ideas you are attempting to convey. When you learn how to accurately do this and practice it into perfection you will be able to bring your words to life for your listener. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The language you use will begin to be filled with the actual meaning and feelings that come from your choice of words and the way you say them. For instance if you want your subject to relax, you don’t scream relax at them while jumping up and down you would draw the word out using a mellow and calming tone of voice.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In doing this you are letting the tone of your voice do the hard work and you convey a state of mind or feeling. Rhythm in what you are saying is also accomplished here with very little effort, it just happens naturally as you say the words with the meanings they posses</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

It is very important to understand how vital it is for you to master the language and use it as a power foundation with your subjects. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Language and how you use it will create a solid base for putting people into an altered state of mind. The main objective in hypnosis is to have the ability to help people change their lives and this is accomplished through influence and persuasion to do certain things. Without the right language and skill you will struggle with accomplishing these goals.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The ability to use language to create an altered state of mind is key. Altered state of mind is defined as a special state of awareness in which the subject focuses on certain ideas and excludes other ideas from that focus. In this definition the meaning is that whatever a person is focusing on exclusively becomes real to them.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It is important to remember that within each human the will and imagination are always conflicting. It is equally important to remember that the imagination will always win this battle. In order to use this information in your language arsenal it is important to make direct contact with the imagination and lay your suggestions there.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Using language to zero in on the outcome you are striving for requires you to get people into a good ‘focus of attention’. This is one of the first concepts that early hypnotists discovered was responsible for causing trances. When you can accurately get and maintain the focus of a person they will often enter a trance for you.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">After this has been accomplished you will be the tour guide of their trance. It is your responsibility as the hypnotist to lead them on an unforgettable journey into and through their trance. You will be influencing them to focus their attention on thoughts and ideas that will help them to arrive at their desired outcome. The arrival there will fulfill their purpose in changing behaviors to match their goals in life.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now as we continue through this article you will learn how you do this. How do you create that powerful foundation of hypnotic language? </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The first stage in this is to create an unbroken flow of ideas. This responsibility is all on you as the hypnotist. This flow of ideas should run smoothly, it should be practiced. The words you speak should be fluid, comfortable, enjoyable, and pleasant. Keep your listener wanting to hear more. There should be no words or ideas that cause your listener to want to stop your flow of language.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are ways to accomplish what I have just explained. If you exercise these 4 principals you will begin to master the key tool in conversational hypnosis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The first principal you must apply is to create verbal agreement with your subject. In order to do this the listener must be able to in some way agree with what you are saying. They do not have to literally say yes to everything you say but something inside of them has to recognize at some level your statements are true for them. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Part of this agreement is in you and your speaking. Your thoughts must flow easily without hesitation or disagreement. When you accomplish this you are much easier for your listener to follow, it is easier to come to agreement if things do not have to be thought out or deciphered.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The second principal to apply in your hypnotic language is ‘patterns and plausibility’.</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In order to know the amount of work you need to do here it is important to remember the signs of trance. Once you have determined how deep in trance your subject is you will know how plausible or implausible your statements can be.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The deeper in trance the person is the less plausible your statements can be.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In the ‘patterns and plausibility’ principal you will start with agreement. Make statements that your subject must agree with simply because they are truth. You can use the weather outside, the time of day, subjects color of hair; anything that is a verifiable fact. After the person in trance has heard several true statements you will want to add a statement that may or may not be true. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This new statement only has to be plausible enough that they will follow along with it because it is easier to agree than to argue the possible disagreements. In this way the habit of agreeing to the true statements will sneak past the conscious filters that say it may not be true. Once you are past those filters the statement will then start to become true for them.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">After the first two principals have been successful, you can start to work on the third principal; piggy back suggestions. The idea behind piggy backing suggestions is that you can adequately relate ideas or statements that may not necessarily be connected. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This again requires smoothness to your language, there needs to be no breaks in the conversation so there is no time to recognize the un-connectedness of the statements. Another advantage that piggy backing suggestions give is the ability to make comfortable transitions between thoughts and ideas. If you apply this principal correctly there will be no work involved for your listener, it should be an easy experience of transition through new ideas.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">And finally the fourth principal of linguistic bridges is applied. Linguistic bridges are simply conjunctions that permanently connect two sets of information together. When you use linguistic bridges well the thoughts and ideas you are connecting will run through the listener smoothly.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">One way to do this is to use the 4 Words of Power. The 4 words of power are four conjunctions that act like linguistic bridges. These are key in tying together hypnotic themes and help in cementing those ideas together in a nice package. Mastering the 4 words of power will give you the ability to create an endless variety of content and new hypnotic inductions.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">So what are those 4 words of Power? As. And. Because. Which means. These 4 words will give you the ability to piggy back a vast variety of statements and thoughts. The way that these words work is to create a smooth way of communicating all the suggestions you want in a way that your subject will respond to hypnotically.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The 4 words of power are easy to use as you practice them you will see you can fit them easily between themes and connect statements that may otherwise seem un-conncetable. They will make many statements seem more plausible and will add a new rhythm to your speaking. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are a variety of other linguistic bridges that work much like the 4 words of power and as you learn them you will see your full capabilities in this area of conversational hypnosis. With the use of the 4 words of power and these other linguistic bridges you will experience a wide range of fluid expression.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are lists of the linguistic bridges available and it would be an excellent idea to memorize these powerful words to use as tools in your language. The lists available for the linguistic bridges are great for learning to incorporate them into your speaking when you have the list with you. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">You can also purchase a Street Hypnosis Deck, which is a deck of illustrated cards containing words on each card. This is a great way to carry the linguistic bridges you will be using so often with you.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

Accurate signal recognition is used to help us to see what is really happening around us and to realize the signals that tell us we are being successful in the things we do. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It is important to hone these signals in the field of hypnosis as well. If you are not attuned to the signals of trance then there is the possibility that you will be doing more work than you need to in order to alter the state of mind of the people around you. It is equally important to see things as they really are which will aid in your success of seeing the minor signals that light the way to trance</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In hypnosis there are very obvious signs that a person is entering an altered state of mind and there are subtle less obvious signs too. The most obvious signs include changes in breathing, a smoothness of facial features, attention absorption, involuntary muscle movements, lack of mobility and increased passive responses. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In this article we will go over the less obvious signs that you are putting a person into trance. These are the signals that will be more difficult to spot and will require a more focused sense of accurate signal recognition. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Always remember when you are looking for signals of trance that you are not looking for one specific item, you are looking for changes from the normal state of the person you are currently dealing with.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The first trance signal we will discuss is the change in pupil dilation. Change in pupil dilation is the change in size of the black center of the eye. This signal is harder to see for several reasons. There are outside influences that can tamper with the accuracy of your judgment in this signal.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The first being that the subject’s eyes may not be in your view, some people close their eyes when they are relaxed and others may be avoiding eye contact as they are feeling that they are in a vulnerable state. Another reason this is a more difficult signal to detect is the amount of observation it requires to see a change in something so small. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Changes in a person’s pupils can also result from changes in light, for instance sunny days and darker rooms will cause the pupils to change their dilation. This is an unavoidable interference as it is just the nature of the way the eyes react to the lighting around them.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When a subject’s pupils are reacting to hypnosis or an altered state of mind they will usually become larger. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Another little known trance signal that is difficult to spot is the pace of your subjects pulse. The heart rate of the person you are trying to put into trance will usually slow down as they are entering the altered state of mind. However this may also depend on the story you are telling or the mental pictures you are creating.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you are using a relaxing set of suggestions the person’s heart rate will usually slow down. If you are using an exciting, dangerous, or suspenseful story the heart rate of the subject may increase due to the feelings you are producing with in them.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">No matter which way the heart rate goes, if it is changing you can begin to believe you have successfully helped your client into the beginnings of hypnosis. The question in your mind now is going to be, “How can I tell the heart rate of my subject without touching them to feel it?” </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is the reason that this trance signal is harder to spot than some others. You typically don’t want to touch a person when they are totally relaxed and trusting you to guide them with conversation alone. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The only way to monitor their heart rate without physically touching them is to know where to look. There are specific areas on the body where the blood vessels are close to the surface under the skin. If you watch these areas closely you can usually see the heart beat of your subject. The best places to see this is at the side of the neck and across the ankle bone. Both of these areas generally have a visible heart rate.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Trance signal number three in the list of least obvious signs is to see a change in the blink reflex of your subject. This signal is easy to spot once you know it exists. The reason it is considered less obvious is simply because many people do not know about it. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The only reason you would have trouble monitoring this signal would be if you can not see your subject’s eyes or they have closed them, which could be a signal in itself. If you can see your subject’s eyes, however, you will be able to monitor how their blink reflex has changed from the way they normally blink. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Here you are looking for a rate of faster or slower blinking of the eyes. Some people stop blinking altogether, this is due to the eyelids becoming cataleptic. The eyelids simply become frozen for extended periods of time.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Similar to the blink reflex you will also want to watch for a change in the swallowing reflex of your subject. If there is a change here you can count it as a trance signal that the person is experiencing an altered state of mind. In this signal you are again looking for a slowing of the swallowing. Some subject’s even stop swallowing altogether. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The swallowing reflex is again is easy to recognize once you are aware that it signifies the beginnings of a trance, you simply watch their throat to see signs of swallowing. In this trance signal you may also notice that the eyelids grow heavy or the eyes close completely. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Often your subject will grow sleepy as they enter trance but many people will not close their eyes as they find it embarrassing to feel as though they have fallen asleep in front of another person, especially if that person is speaking to them.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Little known trance signal number five is a change in the skin color or tone of your subject. As many people start to relax the blood vessels in their bodies change as well. This allows the blood within to flow more freely through the body and causes slight changes in skin color and tone. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Some people get darker and some people will grow paler, this simply depends on the person. Either effect is completely normal and is the result of a physiological change that is also very natural.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Finally the last little known trance signal number six it the change in voice. This signal can be hard to detect if your subject is not speaking. Many people will have slower speech or a slower rate of talking when they are in an altered state of mind. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Another aspect of the voice that can change when in trance is the tonality of voice. There is not set standard of whether this goes up or down, you just need to listen for a difference from normal tones. Some people who have entered trance will just stop talking altogether; again look for signals that are different from the normal state of the subject.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">These signals are less obvious than other signals and signs of trance that we have talked about previously. Some are harder to see and some are just lesser known than the others. At any rate they are good identifiers that you have succeeded in altering the state of mind of the people or person you are with. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Watch for them closely and keep your sense tuned for these minute changes in your subjects. Remember that the sooner you can conclude that your subject is in trance the sooner you can move on to the next steps in your hypnosis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

This can be done with accurate signal recognition systems as well as knowing how to asses trance signals.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Accurate signal recognition systems are important because they are your first clue that a person is responding to you hypnotically. The signals you can pick up on can be quite obvious or very minute; anything from the glazed look of entering a trance, whether produced by you or an outside source, to the smallest detail physical change. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Milton Erickson had a perfected eye for picking up on the smallest signals that people sent out. This is a perfection you as a hypnotist should strive for. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are other obvious signals that a person is going into trance. We will get to discuss these here and you will learn how to tune into the different signals your subjects will be showing when they are entering a hypnotic trance.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">During hypnosis when a person is very focused and beginning to enter a trance there are certain aspects of their physiology that will inevitably change. These are unconscious changes that occur without the conscious control of the person being hypnotized.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As we look at the different signs of trance it is important to note that not all signals will be the same for every person. Signal recognition systems are not a specific set of rules to follow. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It is your jobs as the hypnotist to attune yourself to the different subjects you have and realize what is different for each one. This is not about seeing one or two distinct signs from your subject, but distinguishing what is different for that person from the norm.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The most obvious signal that a person is entering into a highly focused state of trance is the change in their breathing. Usually the rate of breathing will slow as they are becoming more relaxed under trance. However there are subjects whose breathing will speed up as well. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The rate of breathing the person is experiencing is often dependant on the focus of your conversation. If you are asking them to relax into a trance their breathing will more than likely slow. If you are taking them through an exciting chain of events or they feel imposing danger their rate of breathing may quicken.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In order to tell if a persons breathing has changed you will undoubtedly have to be studying their body. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are ways of doing this without getting slapped or punched. Of course you can monitor their chest to see the rate of breath, however this may seem offensive to some people. If you are monitoring their chest it is a good idea to do this with your peripheral vision. Staring straight on at someone’s chest, especially a female subject is never a good idea. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Other means of monitoring rate of breath is to watch the rise and fall of a person’s shoulders or rib cage. Both of these move with every breath you take and will be fairly obvious and easy to spot.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The second most obvious sign that a person is entering a hypnotic state is the smoothing out of facial features. If you have ever looked a person straight on in the face you will often notice that most people’s faces are not completely symmetrical. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As a person goes into a trance they muscles in the face begin to relax and their face will start to appear more symmetrical. The left side of the face will more closely match the right side.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is a fairly easy signal to spot, especially if you are prone to looking at a persons face while talking to them. As they go into trance and you are looking at their face you will be able to see the muscles relaxing and the face visibly starts to even out.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As you are watching your subjects face for signs of evening out you may very well be able to pick up on the third most obvious signal at the same time. This is when a person’s attention is absorbed. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When a subject is going into hypnosis and their attention is being fully absorbed there are slight changes in their eyes that you will be able to see. The first is the eyes will become fixed on one spot in space. It may look as though they are ‘zoning out’ or staring at nothing in particular. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Another affect on the eyes of trance is they can become slightly glazed over or sleepy looking. Sometimes a person will show no eye movement at all. All these signs are showing you that a person’s attention is completely affixed and they are falling into a trance.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The fourth obvious sign of trance is involuntary muscle twitches. These are of course easy to spot and can almost be eye catching. They can be seen straight on or be easily spotted through your peripheral vision. Involuntary muscle twitches can affect any part of the body that has a muscle. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The bigger the muscle twitching the easier it is to spot. Many subjects will experience facial ticks or shoulder twitches, these are both within your line of vision and pretty noticeable. The twitching of muscles is caused by the cathartic process that the muscles experience when completely relaxed.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Number five on the list of obvious signs is almost the opposite of muscle twitches; it is the effect of immobility of the body. Sometimes when a person is going into a hypnotic trance they will stop moving all together. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is easy to see especially if you are dealing with a person who normally makes a lot of hand gestures or has animated body language. If you are dealing with someone who rarely sits still you will almost immediately notice the lack of mobility of the body. If their movements begin to slow down or actually stop all together you will know they are entering an altered state of mind.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The final obvious signal in the six most obvious is the increase in passive responses given by a person. As many people enter an altered state of mind the will become less argumentative, more passive. This more agreeable demeanor will be much more willing to follow your lead. This is noticeable both as a changing personality trait and that it can ultimately make your job as the hypnotist easier.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The six obvious signals we have gone over here are easy to spot. Keep in mind as you experience new subjects and learn to put new people into trance you will probably discover other obvious signs that are unique to different individuals. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As you learn to spot as many signals coming from those around you going into altered states of mind you will become seasoned and be able to conduct your hypnosis quicker and easier than ever. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The skill of being able to spot when someone is entering a trance is really at the core of signal recognition systems and is easy to practice as people are constantly moving in and out of trances around you all the time. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Learning to spot these signals will also aid you in the future when you are learning to borrow trances already in progress.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

Some of those signals come from people and others come from objects. There are signals that are concrete. These signals tell us when it is okay to cross the street, when to eat and when we should be sleepy. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are also signals all around us that are not as obvious; an innocent flirtation, needs and feelings within others they need met and the signals of trance. It is true there are people around you everyday falling in and out of trances. Many times people do not realize the signals that are coming from those in trance.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">At the beginning of hypnosis it is vital that you learn to recognize these signals. But before you can easily spot signals coming from others you must first teach yourself a few things.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">You need to learn to see the world as it is. Plain and simple. Most people view the world as they want it to be. If you can learn to view things as they actually are you will be opening your mind to the truth of the world. When we see things the way in which we believe, or want to believe, things are we are deceiving ourselves.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As humans we are accustomed to seeing what we expect. We filter out what we don’t want and view the world, our lives and the lives of others in skewed terms. In order to see things as they truly are there are two things you must do for yourself.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The first is to recognize what is actually out there, whether you are viewing the world or your front yard. Keep your view simple and true, factual. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The second thing you need to do is to learn to recognize the signals that come when you are successful in a thing. Look for the signals that tell you are being successful in whatever it is that you are doing.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">After you have learned to open your mind and do these two things successfully on a consistent basis you will be able to attune your ‘accurate signal recognition’ even further.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Milton Erickson was practiced and precise in his accurate signal recognition. Erickson was a leading psychiatrist, born in the early 1900’s. He specialized in medical hypnosis and family therapy. Erickson believed as many hypnotists do today that the unconscious was completely separate from the conscious. This included that the unconscious mind possessed its own awareness, interests, responses and learning abilities. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Milton Erickson was so precise in his recognition of signals that he could tell things about a person that they perhaps had only discovered moments earlier. He used his keen sense of signal recognition as he closely watched people and noticed things others would never see.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Erickson could tell a woman was expecting a child in the first weeks of pregnancy just by the tilt of her hips and movement of her hairline. When a woman is pregnant these things change in very small ways. The hair line moves by fractions, so little unless you were keen to the idea you would never notice. There are also changes within the body that affect the pelvis and its structure.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Erickson’s ability to read signals was so attuned he could read signals from subjects that other doctors never even realized. Once a woman visited him and was very skeptical about seeing yet another psychiatrist because no other psychiatrist had recognized her dilemma as of yet. Erickson told her immediately that he needed to know how long she had been a woman for. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">He could tell simply from the signals she was sending out that she was really a man. Her body language was that of a girls who had not yet figured out how to work around new breasts. She would bump them as she moved her arms and gestured with her hands. Many people would just attribute this small signal as something that happens when one is not comfortable in their body. Or many may not have even noticed it at all, depending on the size of her chest I am sure.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Milton Erickson was noted for his signal recognition and it was fundamental in his success as a hypnotist. He knew, as you need to know now, that the smallest signals a person gives off can send a large amount of information your way. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Noticing changes in your subjects and the people around you is an important skill to perfect. Acute visual recognition can show you changes in the smallest detail. These changes and details are very important.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As you learn more about hypnosis and signal recognition systems it is important to focus on and develop them for yourself. This will aid you greatly in seeing the signals that someone is entering trance. It will also help in showing you when people are responding to your ideas and suggestions in the ways you want them to.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Signal recognition systems are a key tool in hypnosis. They can tell you volumes about a person once you learn to recognize and read the signals properly. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">After all it is always good to know when a woman is actually a man, and if signal recognition can help you here it can more than likely help you any where.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

Without rapport your subject will not be open to your hypnotic suggestions and communications. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Rapport is the harmonious relationship that you share with people. In this relationship you understand and relate to people’s feelings, ideas as well as communicate them well with one another. Everyone does this everyday with the different relationships they share with family, friends and co-workers.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In order to build a strong and wide rapport you will need to practice and perfect certain skills. Rapport in normal circumstances can often come easily. Think of how easily you share your life with a spouse or your best friend. The rapport here is focused and good, it comes easily and casually. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">However hypnosis is not a normal or casual relationship. A deep amount of comfort, trust and familiarity must be established before you can reach your goals with a hypnotic subject. Remember they are going to let you into their mind this is not a place you open to just a perfect stranger.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As you are learning hypnosis you will want to focus on advanced strategies for building rapport. Creating and building on ‘rapport hooks’ is a great skill that will get other people to build rapport with you. Rapport hooks are going to do the work of drawing your subject into you as you get acquainted.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Rapport hooks are developed in a way that will keep people coming back to you to build on the relationship. It causes people to work hard and value the relationships they are building. If a person feels that they are working hard to build something they will also continue to work to maintain the past success they have had.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you put rapport hooks into action, they will keep the person coming back for more information. The hooks will get your subject to keep asking questions, and coming back to fill in the informational gaps in you are purposefully leaving in your stories.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">One way to get a person to keep coming back for that information is to give them small pieces of information that may not be complete. Leave questions in their mind as you tell stories. Give a casual tone, but leave what, why and how open for your subject to dig with. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The key here is to avoid forcing information on to them. Get your subject interested but leave your topics open by adding suspense and unfinished information. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">For example, if you are telling a story about a place you visited, use the name of the country but give no specifics about where you went. Tell them the scenery is beautiful but let them ask about the region or sites you saw. Let them probe for these answers. You can do this with almost any topic.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">While you are talking remember to use a casual tone and present the information in a way that inclines them to ask for more. If your subject’s curiosity is peaked they will be inclined to want to know more to the point of asking you. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In this manner you are elegantly giving them a good story and drawing them in as well. The more curiosity and interest the person has the more questions they will ask. Asking you questions is subconsciously earning them the right to the information and they begin to feel it is more important.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you use rapport hooks it will also help you with fractionate rapport. Fractionate rapport happens when you giving rapport then consciously taking it away. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Give your subject your full attention for a while, then, distract yourself. Getting casually distracted by looking around or engaging your attention elsewhere will cause the subject to re-engage you. If the person does re-engage you then you are on board with the beginnings of a foundation for an advanced rapport. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Again this is causing the person to work for your attention. You give it, and then take your attention away. They then have to work to get it back. This makes the relationship more valued yet again because it is not being forced upon them. They are asking for it and earning it. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When using these advanced rapport building skills you will successfully push your rapport further, faster than normal. The more push and pull you involve in your conversations the quicker and deeper your rapport will go.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">These skills will take your relationship to higher levels of comfort and trust quickly so a good and wide enough rapport is set to continue. Once this is founded and put into place you will be able to begin to put your subject into trance and begin the real work of hypnosis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

When you participate in conducting a hypnotic trance your unconscious will be opened to them. Because of this it is important to have the experience you wish them to partake in at the forefront of your mind when starting the rapport.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Rapport is not a term generated just for use in hypnosis. It happens with everyone you come into conversational contact with. And the rapport you develop with your subjects is instrumental in conducting successful conversational hypnosis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Hypnosis is anything but a casual relationship between two people. It is a deep connection that must be supported with good rapport. Anything you feel will unconsciously be projected upon the person you are trying to hypnotize. Because of this it is paramount that you learn to take your rapport skills out of the range of normal and beyond.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Hypnotic rapport is a time tested relationship. It has been present since people have been in existence. It is not fully understood and may never be, but it is very powerful. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Rapport is powerful in the sense that anytime a person around you experiences a trance they will inevitably take on a deeper connection with you and your unconscious mind. This deepens the trust between the participants and offers a sense of comfort in your company.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Going first, or ‘go first’ concept is an important one to become highly familiar with. In ‘go first’ you as the hypnotist must first enter the environment and experience you want your subject to have. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The reason you need to enter the experience before your hypnotic subject is so they will pick that experience up from your subconscious as they are in trance. Because every time a person goes into trance around you they develop an unconscious connection with you, if you have the experience at the forefront of your mind they will bring it back with them after the hypnosis is concluded. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As you begin to make hypnotic connections with other people you will be unconsciously exploring their mind as they will be making a connection with your unconscious as well. This is a powerful part of hypnosis. It allows each person to explore thoughts and ideas they never knew they had until that precise moment.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">An example of this is prevalent in our everyday lives. We have all met people that we have a difficult time connecting with. You may have the same conversations over and over with little success in a real connection. It may seem that there is some sort of barrier up between the two of you. You never quite get past the small talk questions because you are not comfortable enough to advance into a deeper relationship.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This relationship is skewed because on an unconscious level these people are sub-communicating their sense of distrust and non ability to be comfortable around you. This atmosphere within in a person you are trying to connect with will shut down your thoughts and ideas. This will happen even before those thoughts and ideas have even had a chance to properly develop and come to your conscious.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">On the other hand you probably meet people that you seem to have an instant connection with. In these situations it can seem that the thoughts and ideas are flowing from you endlessly. Ideas you never even realized you had come easily and seamlessly carry your listener. You are charismatic with these people, your ideas are good, and they come out well.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Split personality? No.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is the way most people work. Those who are confident, comfortable and trusting in themselves often send out unconscious signals to others that produce the same effect in others. People who are not sure of themselves or comfortable will unconsciously cut off successful communications before they have had a chance to even try.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In hypnosis you will want to have the effect of the second situation. If you have a good rapport with your subjects and they feel comfortable and trusting around you they will be able to easily open up to you. You can aid in this process by making the mental environment even more comfortable by using the ‘go first’ method in hypnosis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It is important to remember that hypnosis is no casual relationship. You want your clients and the people around you to feel as if they have known you for years and can open up to you anywhere. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Developing and instant rapport with a complete stranger is a skill that will attribute to your success as a hypnotist. This is established through good rapport. Good rapport can be established through different methods such as the ‘go first’ method.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

Three of the most common mistakes made when building rapport are trying too hard, being too nice and wanting something too much. All of these are easily remedied as are the three worst mistakes you can make when building a rapport with people. The key is being able to recognize the mistake and know the solution.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When refining the skill of building rapport the first of three detrimental mistakes you can make is to show a lack of genuine interest. This is shown through signals given off by body language.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you are focused and genuinely interested in what another person is saying your body responds in ways others pick up on a subconscious level. These signals range from a change in body language and pupil dilation to your actual focusing signals. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you are bored or showing disinterest people will often respond by turning off. They may show you that they are annoyed with you or simply lose interest as well. Two people having a conversation where neither is interested will damage rapport to say the least.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are two solutions to this first problem. One is the idea of ‘tracking back’. Track back is similar to active listening. In track back you repeat the same words back to the speaker, in the same language they used. This shows you are interested, keeps your mind on track and clarifies what is being discussed.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">You can also apply a track back frame in this skill. This is simply a set of words that frame the exact phrase you are repeating back. “So what you’re saying is…”</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Active listening is different in that you repeat back what the speaker has said using your own words. The dilemma with this is that when you change the words and language you will often change the emotional meaning and tone of the words. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">All language has a neurological effect on people and when you change the emotional meaning of a phrase you can accidentally change the entire meaning. If you change or lose the meaning of what your speaker is saying it may appear that you weren’t listening at all. Again creating the idea that you are disinterested in your speaker’s thoughts and ideas.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The other solution to this problem is to take the advice of Carl Rogers. Rogers was a great psychologist in the early 1900’s. Carl Rogers said that you should always have a high regard for the other person. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">No matter what you think of them under other circumstances, if you are trying to build a lasting rapport you must find a way to convince yourself 100% what they are saying is worthy of respect.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you accomplish this you will accomplish the task of opening up your speaker. You are saying with your body and subconscious signals that they will not be criticized or attacked; you are in a safe place. In order to develop rapport your subject needs to feel safe in order to share feelings and ideas with you.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The next horrible mistake you can make while trying to build rapport is to play the wrong role within a relationship. When two people are building rapport their relationship can fluctuate.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are three different roles you can take on in every relationship you are creating. These consist of a high status, low status and equal status. This has nothing to do with your annual income it is merely a place within a relationship. For example an instructor usually has the high status in interaction with a student, and the student has the lower status.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now it seems that status would naturally fall into place within conversation, right? The problem with this is that there are people who are unable to take on different status themselves. They need to be led into a new status. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you are dealing with a person who only likes to be in a high status and you attempt to take away their role for yourself they will not be comfortable. In fact this will usually result in them disliking you and distrusting you.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">You must learn to be a flexible communicator. If you have the ability to take on whatever status is necessary you will be able to open communication with anyone and start a rapport. Once you have done this you can slowly change your levels as they follow your lead and adapt to you.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Keep in mind the ‘pacing and leading’ principal here. You can only travel through the different status roles as quickly as your subject will comfortably follow.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The final vital mistake you can make in your rapport building is to neglect a wide rapport and build only a deep rapport. A deep rapport is when you base your entire interaction with a person on one subject, interest or environment. This type of rapport will get you deep in that area alone quickly. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It is in your better interest to have a wide rapport so people can relate to you on many different levels. A wide rapport gives a person many different experiences of you in many different environments, interests and subjects.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is important as it does not limit you. Your subject can feel comfortable talking with you in many places about many different ideas, feelings and thoughts.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are two ways to create wide rapport. One is to meet in different locations to conduct your interactions. This could be enjoyable but time consuming. The other is to develop wide rapport through story telling.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Story telling offers you an endless amount of places, topics, themes and ideas you can open your subject up to. The more sense of your complete personality they have the more comfortable they will be in building rapport.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As you continue to talk about different topics your subject will eventually be willing to open up to you about anything. There are many different techniques and uses for story telling that you will learn throughout your hypnosis training.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now that you are aware of the common mistakes and pitfalls of building rapport you can use the simple solutions provided to refine your skills. Always keep in mind that the better your rapport building skills the better you will be in the act of hypnosis. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now go forth and build elegant and beautiful rapport with everyone you know.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

As you improve your rapport skills you will be improving your overall skill as a hypnotist. In saying that it is important to be aware of the common mistakes made in building rapport.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: justify;">The ability to have great rapport with your subjects is one of the first tools you will encounter needing as a hypnotist. Common mistakes made in this area are hard to identify as ‘mistakes’ unless you are aware of what they are.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The first most common mistake made is simply trying to be too nice. Of course you should be nice to people. But there is a point in time in certain relationships when the line must be drawn. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In order to develop a deep rapport with people you need to have full communication. This means that everything that needs to be said must be said, even if it is unpleasant. Not having full communication can disable you from sharing important thoughts, ideas and feelings.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The basic rule to follow here is to be nice but not at the expense of real communication. Say what needs to be said. If you do not the rapport will break down and a barrier will start to go up. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Most people have experienced one end or the other of trying to be too nice. One example is we are often too busy with politeness to show our true selves. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The other end of the spectrum is we encounter people who are trying too hard to be nice to us. Either way you look at it, a wall is constructed and these people remain casual acquaintances. We often have the same exact conversations with these people and never truly build a lasting rapport with them because there is no real communication happening.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The second mistake that is often made when attempting to build rapport is trying too hard. Yes this is closely related to the first mistake. When we try too hard we send signals of desperation. It shows that we are too eager to please or desperate for company.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">No one likes to be surrounded with desperate people. The air of desperation often causes those around it to feel obligated or under a lot of pressure. Both of these feelings can completely shut down communication.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Trying too hard is a mistake that can lead to the “Law of Reversed Effect”. The “Law of Reversed Effect” means the harder you try, the more likely you will fail. This is because you are actually interfering with the unconscious process.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you try too hard you are not falling into a gentle rhythm where rapport is produced you are trying to force a relationship that is not ready yet. Maintaining a sense of what needs to happen to create rapport is essential to your success.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Once you recognize what needs to happen you should let your unconscious take over and implement the steps itself. ‘Instant rapport technique’ will help with this later in another article.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The third mistake that is common in hypnosis is to want something from someone too much. This mistake is again closely related to the first two mistakes. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When we want something too much we often become pushy and overwhelming, especially so to the subconscious. Once an individual has pushed too much their counterpart will back off or become disinterested. Salesmen encounter this often. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There is a solution for this. ‘Fractionating rapport’ will help you to pace yourself in the amount of intimacy you seek. In fractionation you work on building a little rapport and then leave it alone for a while. Let the subject come and re-engage you. Each time you repeat the process you will be digging deeper and deeper into a comfort zone and building a strong rapport with the person.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This technique keep people in their comfort zones, and you are only stretching that zone a little each time you go through the motions. Soon conversation, give and take, push and pull will become a natural and familiar habit.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Being too nice to people, trying too hard and wanting something too much, all have simple solutions to help you become successful.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you are being too nice to your subjects, stop and remember there is a point at which you must stop being nice to save the rapport.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you are trying too hard with your subjects implement the ‘instant rapport technique’. This will allow the unconscious to send the normal rapport signals to you through your subject.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">And if you want something too much, stop doing it and use fractionation. Soon over a small amount of time you will have built many steps to great rapport.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Being aware of these three common mistakes in building rapport will help you to not only avoid them but to improve you hypnosis skills further.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

When learning hypnosis you need to really focus on this skill to create the best rapport possible with your subjects. This will help you on your way to becoming a great hypnotist.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">A fundamental understanding of what makes up a good rapport between two people will help you to create the type of deepened relationships you require as a hypnotist. Rapport will build trust and comfort between you and your clients.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Rapport is the close relationship that you will develop with your subjects. It is a harmonious relationship including 2 or more people that understand one another’s feelings and ideas. Rapport also includes the important skill to be able to communicate those feelings and ideas thoroughly.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">A fact about rapport is everyone knows how to develop rapport in a traditional sense. As long as you live outside of a cave, you do it daily. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">You have a rapport with your co-workers, clients, friends and family. Those rapports may differ; in fact they should be different as the relationships with each are different. These rapports are the basis for the comfort you feel in interacting with these people on a regular basis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Traditionally you build rapport with others by finding common interests, being nice, complimenting another as well as the similar experiences you share. These are all good ways to develop rapport on a normal basis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Knowing how rapport works will help you in nearly every rapport building situation. Many do not understand how rapport works and use traditional rapport building means during inappropriate times. This can cause the relationship to backfire and sometimes fail completely.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you are looking for rapport in any situation it is paramount that you remember that other people enjoy being around people like themselves. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The idea of experiencing a similar situation as another really works here. As this creates a connection on a deeper level, experiences are important to people. They are what make up our lives, a series of experiences linked together.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This creates a safe environment for most individuals to open up within.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">To be able to create a safe and comfortable feeling for your subject is fundamental. After you have successfully started the rapport in this way the quicker you will be able to dig deeper into the relationship. This technique will make the relationship stronger and more trusting.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">However, developing a rapport in hypnosis is anything but traditional. Here you are looking to achieve a deeper relationship much quicker than developing a normal rapport with an acquaintance.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Refining the development of traditional rapport can make this a valuable and powerful skill for your practice in hypnosis. Fractionating, wide rapport, story telling and ‘matching and mirroring are ways to build rapport with in conversational hypnosis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Fractionate rapport helps your subject work to keep the rapport going. In this skill you give your attention full to the subject. Then take it away, get distracted. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">If the person try’s to re-engage you, you have successfully founded the beginnings of a rapport. Then you start the process over again. Each time you give your complete focus the person will develop a deeper trust and comfort with you.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Another way to strengthen rapport is through wide rapport. Wide rapport is when you offer a subject many different experiences of you in different environments. This can be done literally by going to different locations to see one another. It can also be accomplished through story telling.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Story telling is a great way to build rapport with someone. Through the telling of stories you can create many different realities in which your subject becomes comfortable interacting with you. This builds trust and allows them to open up their mind to you more quickly. You can use story telling to develop a wide rapport with each person you meet.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Another way to improve rapport is to know how to use Matching and Mirroring. This is a technique that when done correctly, will help your subject feel more comfortable very quickly.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Matching and Mirroring is when you mimic the actions, body language, hand gestures and signals to create an unconscious connection with another person. This needs to happen on an unconscious level for it to work.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Once a person realizes on a conscious level that you are mirroring them it can cause them to feel annoyed and uncomfortable around you. They may even feel that you are making fun of them. This is not a good way to build rapport and can be damaging. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">On the other hand if you are successful in matching and mirroring, and your subject is unaware on a conscious level that you are mimicking them it can build a very strong connection with the person quite quickly.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Remember this technique works only when it is unconsciously perceived, outside normal awareness.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Matching and mirroring studies have shown that when the participants included in the study did not recognize the imitation a strong rapport was created. Those who discovered they were being mimicked were less persuaded by the entire presentation, and the rapport was damaged.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The key here is to learn to match and mirror unconsciously. If you do this you will be more likely to go undiscovered by the other person you are interacting with.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Matching and mirroring is a powerful technique for building rapport and therefore a powerful technique in improving your hypnosis. However, it does have limitations and you should have other means for developing rapport as well.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Hypnosis is a very different form of communication. It requires different techniques to develop a substantial rapport that the relationship can firmly stand on. Building the rapport with your subject through fractionating, wide rapport, story telling and matching and mirroring is fundamental.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Hypnosis is created when a person is so intensely focused that it creates a freedom within the unconscious mind to act beyond the normal restrictions of what the conscious mind deems possible, real and proper</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Hypnosis training is best started by learning about the past and present of hypnosis itself. The history of hypnosis reaches centuries back; it wasn’t until the 1880’s that hypnosis advanced from the ‘Dark Ages’ and into a more scientific realm. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It was then that a Scottish neurosurgeon by the name of James Braid came up with the term hypnotism. Not only is James Braid responsible for coining the term hypnotism he is also responsible for the study that proved that hypnotism was not a product of magnetic fluids flowing through our bodies. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Braid spent time studying Animal Magnetism and Mesmerism and concluded from those studies that hypnosis could be induced by anyone as long as they followed a certain set of simple rules. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As Braid experimented and studied hypnosis he coined the term hypnosis for reasons that the subjects undergoing it looked to be sleepy. After further study he found that one could be hypnotized and still be wide awake, at this time he attempted to change the term hypnotism to monoidealism; mono- meaning one, and idealism for the focus on a particular idea. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This term made better sense as the act of hypnosis is created by complete focus on one idea to the extent that it eventually becomes a reality for the subject. The term monoidealism did not take and hence today hypnosis is still known as hypnosis.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As James Braid has shown us through history there are rules to follow and steps to take to induce a person into a hypnotic state. These steps are known today as the 4 Stage Formula. The 4 Stage Formula begins with Stage 1, to Absorb Attention. Absorbing attention is simply to capture the focus of your subject. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This requires intense concentration and the ability to draw your subject into you and to keep them following your lead with suggestions and language, after you have accomplished this you can move on to the second stage.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The second stage of the 4 Stage Formula is to Bypass the Critical Factor. Critical factor is known in hypnosis as the reasoning of the conscious mind that says, “this is not possible”. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Resistance to hypnotic trance is created when the critical factor stands between your subject and their hypnotic state. This must be bypassed in order for your subject to respond to you on an unconscious level. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Once you have bypassed the critical factor, which you will learn as we move through different articles, you will be able to present hypnotic suggestions in the form of advice. As long as no critical factor is standing in the way the suggestions will resonate with your subject and the advice will come out through the conscious mind and take effect.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">After you have bypassed all critical factors stage 3 of the 4 Stages is to Activate an Unconscious Response. Activating unconscious responses is your sign that you have successfully led your subject into a hypnotic state. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Any unconscious response is a positive sign for you as a hypnotist, as well as for your client, because you are doing your job. Unconscious response can vary; a good example of an unconscious response is an emotional response. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Emotional responses are derived from an unconscious level, you have no choice in your emotions they are simply a product of your unconscious reacting to and implementing the thinking and understandings you posses. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Make sure to note that if you are dealing with a subject that is in a heightened state of emotion, say a breakup or recent loss, the subject is already in their own hypnotic process. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">You as the hypnotist will have no control over a person in hypnotic process of which you are not the authority. They will not listen to you or attempt to follow your suggestions, they are immune to your reasoning and need time to emerge from the state they are in before you can induce a hypnotic state of which you are in control of. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">You must be able to access and retrieve a response from the unconscious before you can begin working toward any desired outcome. This brings us to the fourth and final step in the 4 Stages; the fourth stage is to Lead Unconscious to Desired Outcome. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This step is simple to explain really it is as it sounds. Once you have your subject in a hypnotic state and have accomplished the three previous stages you will lead your subject through their unconscious by way of suggestions to obtain your desired outcome. When you successfully combine all four of the 4 Stage Formula you will be engaging with your subject in a conversational hypnotic interaction. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

These are common entertainments in the world of tall tales we thrive within. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The ‘dark side of hypnosis’ is a common theme among books, movies and television, but is there truly a ‘dark side’ of hypnosis? In a way there is, however the ‘dark side’ of hypnosis is much more common and mundane than the entertainment industry would lead you to believe. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In fact the entertainment industry is much a part of the ‘dark side’ of hypnosis as any other means in our society. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">As we have learned hypnosis is a natural and common occurrence in our everyday lives. For the most part we are constantly flowing in and out of hypnotic trances daily without realization of them. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Many times we are hypnotized quite by accident and these instances are generally harmless and well intentioned. Other times trances and hypnosis is projected upon us very purposefully, designed to drive you to buy, sell or do something you may not normally desire to do. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The main culprits of purposeful hypnosis that you may not be aware of are the media, news, government, advertising, post as well as other people’s opinions. If you take a moment to think back to a time when there was no television, you will often picture a farm family with no more possessions than they need, maybe a candle burning for light and a fire to cook food by. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Yet happy in the world they have created for themselves without the influence of a television constantly projecting the ‘needs’ of everyday life. If you compare this to today’s home life where most televisions are on at almost every hour of the day, a very different reality takes place. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">We are being influenced everyday by thousands of messages targeted directly to persuade us to purchase bigger, nicer, better, more convenient items. GPS takes the place of maps, disposable diapers instead of cloth and TiVo giving you the ability to never miss a single hypnotic message on TV. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Honestly, I have yet to see a Swifter in a museum or on an episode of Little House on the Prairie. Most advertising is created very purposefully, their objective and business is to influence you to buy an item, one you may be persuaded to think you need. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is an example of the true, as un-ominous as it may sound, dark side to hypnosis. In being persuaded to buy a new car, when our current vehicle runs fine and may only need a good washing, we are not improving the self from within, we are using a material object to make ourselves feel better about our status in life. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The news is just as abusive in its power to influence our lives, news is no longer about bringing new happening events into our lives as it is now about driving you to watch the news. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">News by definition is supposed to report recent events, intelligence and information. However I am sure you realize by now the news is about catching our interests, what will bring us in to watch, bad news; murder, war, rape, financial instability, disease; the list is endless. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Good news would be much too repetitive and boring day after day; the sun rose, Joe had a great day at work and his wife managed to stay sane while watching their four children. The story you will hear on the news however is Joe went to work, there was a terrorist attack and his wife could no longer manage the children so she drown them in the bath tub. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The danger of this dark side of hypnosis is that it can often create a false impression of the world we live in; sure it is important to know when bad things happen and to educate yourself to prevent them. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">What is dangerous is to think that everyday the ‘news’ is all that is happening in our world. Joe and his family above definitely had a bad day no doubt about it, but there were millions and millions of other families that had perfectly normal happy days as well; little Jimmy got an A, Sally learned to do a cartwheel, mom kept the grocery bill under $300.00 and dad experienced a rewarding day at work and came home an hour early. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The news no longer gives us an accurate representation of the world in which we live, because they to have been influenced to want more, better ratings and more achievement awards.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Hypnosis is a powerful thing and it is important to realize these dangers in a world that is so prevalent with hidden messages and suggestion. The mundane hypnotic dangers of our world come to us through the unconscious being influenced by our societies influences and suggestions. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">How do you compensate and keep a sane and realistic view of life? Take action in your own mind, choose what you believe, pay attention to the things that are happening around you. The easiest way not to fall victim to the ‘dark side of hypnosis’ or break negative hypnotic messages is to think rationally, critically, and originally. Know who you are and do not be a stranger to skepticism. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Skepticism allows you to make your own decisions about what you take in as your true beliefs in life. Analyzing and ridiculing information will stand as a defense against negative messages and protect your mind from all around general pessimism. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

The most common thought is that hypnosis is an altered state of mind that brings the subject to a trance like state. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The rest of the definition not quite as well known is subject is vulnerable to suggestions in order to change their lives. When combined this is a correct assumption and a rather accurate description. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">However hypnosis entails more than just the trance like state you see depicted in many movies and television shows, it is a deep and complicated relationship held between hypnotist and subject that comes complete with a desired set of goals to achieve.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Hypnosis is an altered state of mind. When a subject is under hypnosis they are much more responsive as they experience their inner world the subject’s thoughts and ideas become more vivid and actionable through the art of suggestion and language. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The responsiveness in a hypnotic trance is much more sensitive than that of a normal state of being; thoughts and suggestions presented by you, the hypnotist, will become part of your subject’s inner world creating a pallet for you to work with and mold into the desired outcome. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is important to remember, because as you sharpen your skills as a hypnotist you will always be affecting your subject, everything that becomes a part of your clients inner world will eventually become a part of their outer world as they put your hypnotic suggestions into action. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Another thing that hypnosis is is a very natural way of being, it is not magical or strange, and in fact many people spend a large amount of their days in hypnotic trances, as you learn to entrance people you will start to notice those around you who are experiencing hypnotic trances in everyday life. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">An example of an everyday experience that can often result in a hypnotic trance is driving. Many times we get behind the wheel and know where we started, and suddenly we are at our destination. We don’t recall how we got there or any of the events that happened along the drive, this is a hypnotic trance. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The rhythms we are used to, such as the feel of the car, can relax us to the point that our subconscious takes over and does the work for use while we, excuse the term as many like to call it, ‘zone out’. This may sound strange at first but when you really consider all the activities we do everyday we have been conditioned all through out our lives to enter hypnotic trances. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Have you ever watched a movie and later realized that the only thing in your mind and field of vision was a 15 inch screen, obviously you can see the rest of the room, people, cat and dog while focusing on the screen but the concentration and trance that is produced makes it seem as though the only thing that exists in the room is that little screen and the action it is producing. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Reading a book, we often get lost in the story and never realize what the ‘real world’ is doing around us. As you read you experience changing emotions, happiness, fear, suspense, sadness and tears. This interaction with the words and information being relayed to your mind alters your state of mind and becomes a hypnotic process in itself. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There is almost always the effect that the book you are reading will change either your mood, emotion, ideas and ultimately could change how you live your life, such is the objective of a hypnotist. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This emotional response is unconscious, the changing of your emotions, ideas and life, is one of the fundamental and guiding themes when learning hypnosis. You have no choice in your emotions, you do not get to choose how you feel about a thing, it is simply a conscious response by your unconscious mind as a reaction to the suggestions you are presenting to yourself.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Hypnosis can and usually will result from any repetitive task you enjoy engaging in. Runners experience runners high, they alter their mind and experience a trance like state while their body works they feel healthy and alive. Entering this altered state of mind is a form of self hypnotherapy which is a very powerful place to put yourself, and a powerful thing to be able to accomplish for yourself.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
