The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Hypnosis

February 28, 2010 by editor Leave a Comment

[amazonshowcase_5edbc18f1565adebd9430e995e74f2b2]

This book should have been titled everything you wanted to know about hypnosis and more.

Both professionals and non professionals will find this book helpful.

The material that was presented fully explains each step of the hypnosis process in an orderly and detailed manner. Several chapters build on the information which was provided in previous chapters.

If you have a fear of hypnosis this book will relieve your fears. It offers the reader detailed information on the process, how it works and what to expect.

Dr. Temes provides the reader with a wealth of information on the subject of hypnosis. She shares her years of private practice to educate the readers in the hypnosis process and how through hypnosis she was able to help her clients.

Chapters discuss reasons people choose or should choose to use hypnosis to assist them with health problems, to break habits such as smoking or drinking and to improve their lifestyle. Information is given to enable the readers to hypnotize themselves.

I found this book to be easy to read informative, and in parts funny.

Come Alive With Your Body Language And Facial Expressions

February 28, 2010 by editor Leave a Comment

Animation is simply “coming alive” with your facial expressions and body language. It helps you become sincere and genuine. People find it attractive and often follow along easily with what you’re saying. 

When I say “rhythm” I’m not talking about reciting a language pattern in a poetic way. You don’t have to sound like a Dr. Seuss book, either. Simply playing the part of being a storyteller should do the trick.

If you’ve ever heard a storyteller on stage, they are animated. They keep you in suspense. They are enthusiastic when they speak. They “hit” you with fast talk, then they… slow it down.

Picturing a roller coaster usually helps you to remember “how” to have rhythm when you talk to others. It climbs the first big rail… slowly, it begins to build up the suspense. Then, it begins to roll over the first big rail. It speeds up. Next, it climbs and dives and twists and turns with enthusiasm and rhythm until it finally finishes.

So, when talking with others and doing my best to not sound like a wise one: be the roller coaster.

How To Covertly Influence Other People

February 22, 2010 by editor Leave a Comment

When you want to covertly influence other people, it’s important if not necessary to talk to their solar plexus. You do this by talking from your solar plexus or in other words, talk using your diaphragm.

Simply ask:

•   What feeling do I want them to have?

•   What action do I want them to take? 

•   How do I feel when I have that feeling to act?

So, here’s a simple exercise to do. It’s also important to do these exercises because experience in the best teacher. So go to someplace where people won’t think you’re a little “out there” and try the following, just do it:

•   Place your two fingers on your throat and say your name and social security number” Notice how you sound and how much energy that’s required.

•   Now, relax a bit and place your hand on your chest saying your name and social security number. Notice how less energy is required and how different or normal you sound.

•   Now, relax even more resting your hand on your solar plexus and say your name and social security number. Notice how relaxed you feel and how easy it is to just allow the air to flow through you from deep within. Notice how much differently or natural it sounds to speak from here. 

This is far better than the exercise the sergeant had me do. I had to sing the entire Air Force song completely from the gut all the way through until he was convinced I could do my job again for the second day. Just in case you’re curious, it took me 4 tries to get it right.

Have Tried the Foot Test and Have Been Unsuccessful?

February 14, 2010 by editor Leave a Comment

Let us suppose that you tried the foot test for some time and were unsuccessful. Perhaps this puzzles you, and you wonder why it didn’t work. Perhaps you were able to get a heavy feeling in the legs, but the second part of the test didn’t work. The following information will help you to understand why you were unable to complete this cataleptic test. Either you had not conditioned yourself sufficiently, or you  weren’t really “letting go” enough to enter into a deeper state of hypnosis. Most subjects need to test themselves and feel secure every step of the way. They don’t just plunge into the cataleptic or somnambulistic stages immediately. In this connection, I believe it can be compared with the bather who goes into the water one step at a time. Even the playful splashing directed at him by friends does not compel him to duck under the water. Instead, he continues to slowly go deeper and deeper until he is completely submerged. Wouldn’t it have been easier to duck under all at once? Perhaps, but I’m sure you have either experienced the same thing yourself or seen it happen.

The analogy should be clear. The subject is reluctant to do what he considers as “giving up his control” when, in reality, he is really more and more in control of himself as he penetrates the deeper levels of hypnosis.

In reality, the subject who does not or cannot raise his feet really could move in case of emergency, even without counting to 15. He has, in effect, entered into a state in which it is too much bother to lift his feet. A common example of this frame of mind is when you remain in bed in the morning even though you know you will be late to work. You are just too comfortable to move, and your initiative seems paralyzed.

Let us assume, at this point, that you have finally succeeded in getting the foot test to work. You are now ready for the hand levitation test–No. 5. In this test, the goal is to get your hand to slowly rise and touch your chin. Once it touches your chin, you enter into a still deeper state and lower your hand slowly to your side. This test is actually combined with the hand tingling test–No. 3. Since you have been successful with test No. 3, the rest is rather simple. This time as you work test No. 3, aim for a light, pleasant feeling in your right hand. Once you get this reaction, you give yourself suggestions that your right hand will now rise and touch your chin. As soon as it does, you will fall into a deeper state and lower your hand. Here are the suggestions that you can use: “As I count to ten and even before I reach the count of ten, I shall have an irresistible impulse to slowly raise my hand to my chin. As I progress with the counting, my hand will slowly rise, and the impulse will become stronger and stronger. As soon as my hand touches my chin, the impulse will leave. I will then lower my hand and fall into a very deep hypnotic state. I shall be fully aware of what is happening, my surroundings, and will be able to give myself beneficial posthypnotic suggestions.”

Give Yourself Whatever Suggestions You Want

February 12, 2010 by editor Leave a Comment

Here are the suggestions you can use for the second part of this test. “As I continue to count to ten, I shall find that it will be impossible for me to raise my legs. I shall try at the count of ten, but it will be absolutely impossible to raise my legs until I count to 15. At that time, I shall be able to raise my legs easily, and the heavy feeling will leave as well.” You then continue with the count, giving yourself appropriate suggestions. Once this test is accomplished, you use the visual-imagery technique to see yourself accomplishing the hand levitation test–No. 5. Be sure you give yourself the posthypnotic suggestion that the next time you hypnotize yourself, you will fall into a deeper and sounder state.

I’ll assume that you have been able to get a relaxed, heavy feeling in your legs. You have reached the count of five and are ready to proceed further. Here are sample suggestions you can use: “Six … My legs are becoming extremely heavy. Seven … I’ll be unable to lift them until I count to 15. Eight … I feel very comfortable; my legs are becoming heavier and heavier. Nine … My entire body is completely relaxed, and my legs are so heavy that they are impossible to lift. Ten … I’m in a very deep hypnotic state, and it is absolutely impossible for me to move my legs until I count to 15.” At this point, you actually try to raise your legs. If you can’t do it, you have reached the cataleptic stage.

Should you not be able to raise your legs, don’t become frightened. All you need to say is: “I can now move my legs.” You could also say: “As I count to three, I’ll be able to move my legs.” However, since we have elected originally to be able to move the legs at the count of 15, it would be best to follow out this pattern. You could at this time merely continue to count to 15, at which time you would be able to move your legs. I prefer giving suggestions between each count as follows: “Eleven … The heavy feeling is leaving, and I shall be able to raise my legs at the count of 15. Twelve … I can feel the heavy, relaxed feeling leaving. Thirteen … I am beginning to move my legs. Fourteen … I am lifting my legs more and more. Fifteen … I have perfect control over my bodily functions and legs; I am lifting and moving my legs; the heavy feeling is dissipating; I am in complete control; I can now give myself posthypnotic suggestions that will be very effective and beneficial.” Give yourself whatever suggestions you want at this time.

The Key to Achieving a Greater Depth of Hypnosis

February 11, 2010 by editor Leave a Comment

You will remember that the key to achieving a greater depth of hypnosis lies in visualizing yourself going deeper with each attempt and accomplishing progressive hypnotic tests. Keep this in mind. For a moment, let us go back to the hand tingling test–No. 3. Once you have been successful in accomplishing this test, use the visual-imagery technique to see yourself successfully responding to the foot test. When you have actually accomplished test No. 4, you see yourself accomplishing the “hand levitation” test–No. 5. In other words, you use each step to enhance a greater receptivity for the following progressive test. As you couple this approach with posthypnotic suggestions that you will go deeper and deeper into the hypnotic state at a given stimulus, you set into motion a conditioned response mechanism which must ultimately guide you into a profound state of hypnosis.

The foot test can be accomplished while sitting or lying down. The idea of this test is to imagine that your feet are stuck to the floor or that your legs are so heavy that they are impossible to raise until you reach a certain count. It is best to begin this test by trying to capture a heavy, relaxed feeling in your legs. You give yourself specific suggestions along these lines: “As I count to five, I shall notice a very heavy, relaxed, pleasant feeling in both legs. It will be a very comfortable feeling; a feeling of complete relaxation.” You then begin the count of ten, following out the idea of the other tests you have successfully accomplished. You should remember that there is no time limit and you take as much time as you need in order to get the relaxed, heavy feeling. Once you get the relaxed, heavy feeling, you use the visual-imagery technique to try to picture your legs stuck to the floor.

If you are lying down, imagine you are covered by a heavy blanket which is tightly tucked under the mattress, making it impossible for you to raise your legs. If sitting up, I tell the subject to imagine that his shoes are stuck to the floor with “iron glue,” and since his feet are in the shoes, it is impossible to lift them until the specific count which will enable him to do so.

Speaking in Groups

February 10, 2010 by editor Leave a Comment

Speaking well in a group is not everybody’s cup of tea. But there are many people who have mastered the art of speaking in groups. You might have noticed how fluently and flawlessly some people speak in a group. They are so well at speaking in public because they eradicated the fear of public speaking from their mind very early in their lives. They conquered their fear and moved forward. If you feel nervous while speaking in public then you must make an effort for exterminating that fear out of your live. The effort for eliminating the fear of speaking in groups has to come from with in you.

Speaking in groups is not very difficult if you can some how manage the confidence and stamp out your fears. For the first time you will have to just speak no matter right or wrong. You just concentrate on speaking what you feel like saying. You can try out your hand for gaining confidence by speaking in front of your family members and friends. They will boost you up and you will gain confidence. Speaking inn groups is very important because at some point in life you will have to speak in public. You cannot always avoid speaking in front of people. 

Do not just avoid such situations, face them and become a confident individual. Just make an effort now of speaking in groups for not regretting in future. Speaking is something that we all do every second. So speaking in public should not be a big deal. Just wipe out your fear of committing a mistake and gain confidence for speaking in groups.

The First State of Hypnosis is The Light State

February 9, 2010 by editor Leave a Comment

The following instructions should not be attempted usually unless you have been successful in achieving the two basic tests–the eye closure as well as the uncontrollable urge to swallow followed by the physical act of swallowing at a specific count. If the conditioning process works for these two tests, you have achieved the lethargic state of hypnosis.

This is the first state of hypnosis and is generally referred to as the “light” state. Therapeutic suggestions can work admirably in this state. The next stage of hypnosis is known as the cataleptic state and is referred to as the “medium” state. Generally, hypnosis is divided into three states: the lethargic (light state); the cataleptic (medium state); and the somnambulistic (deep state).

As you deepen the hypnotic state, you can accomplish the progressive tests that I shall outline for you. I’ll also number these tests for the convenience of having a reference. Deepening the hypnotic state requires the same type of practice or conditioning as the first two steps. Let us call eye closure–No. 1, and swallowing–No. 2. We are now ready to proceed to the “hand tingling” test–No. 3. 

You have just completed tests No. 1 and 2; you are in a completely relaxed state. Now give yourself the following suggestions: “As I count to ten and even before I reach the count of ten, I shall feel a light tingling or numb feeling in my right hand.” As you slowly begin the count of ten, you keep repeating suggestions to the effect that your right hand is beginning to tingle. Once again, you practice the technique of visual-imagery, tapping your experiential background for this feeling. You can recall how it feels when your hand goes to sleep.

Once you get an initial feeling of lightness, tingling or numbness, reinforce this feeling by the feed-back technique as you did with the eye closure test. As you practice this procedure, it will work with greater effectiveness. The following is a very important point to remember. Be sure that you give yourself a posthypnotic suggestion that the tingling, light or numb sensation will disappear as you continue to count to 15. For example, “As I count to 15, the tingling feeling in my right hand will disappear, and I shall experience only normal sensations. Eleven … The tingling feeling is leaving. Twelve … Now it is leaving faster. Thirteen … I can feel my hand returning to normal. Fourteen … The tingling feeling has left. Fifteen … My right hand feels perfectly normal.” You could try a variation of this test by saying your nose or one of your toes will itch at a specific count. Once this test is accomplished, you are ready for the “foot” test–No. 4.

Nervous Cough-Getting Rid of Nervous Coughing

February 7, 2010 by editor Leave a Comment


Nervous cough, also known as habit cough, is difficult to get rid of. It is a type of psychological phenomenon which is triggered when a person is facing some stiff or tough time in the personal and professional life. Nervous coughing is correlated with stress. People report to have faced nervous cough mostly when the conditions around them become extreme. Most of the time patients are not able to recognize that their coughing is actually not normal coughing but is nervous coughing. Because people are not able to identify this problem and its triggers, it becomes chronic and hard to cure.

Now, I would like to introduce you to my friends and professional therapists from Hypnosis Downloads. Let’s see what they have to offer:

Hypnosis can help you get rid of an irritating nervous cough and generally feel more relaxed

Have you become self-conscious about coughing or clearing your throat when there is no real reason to?

Do you find that it feels impossible to stop doing this merely by effort of will?

First, it is very important to check with your medical professional whether there is any physical or medical condition underlying this behavior before considering psychological approaches.

So called ‘nervous habits’ tend to develop without our noticing them. It’s as if our bodies and minds autonomously generate an external ‘response’ to certain situations. We are most unlikely to notice the very first time we respond in this way. Or the second time. Or even the tenth time. But sooner or later we realize (all too commonly because someone else makes a comment) that this habit has become fixed.

Why it doesn’t help to look for the ’cause’ of a nervous cough

Many people get anxious when they become aware that they have acquired, without any conscious decision, an unwelcome automatic response like a nervous cough. They start looking for deep psychological explanations and think that, if only they can ‘get to the root of it’, they will be able to ‘sort it out’. This is rarely a useful approach. Even if you know exactly what the initiating ’cause’ was, this won’t help you stop.

This is because unconscious behavior like this is generated in the ‘unconscious’ part of the mind. The conscious mind can shout all it likes that ‘this must stop’, the unconscious mind will continue on stubbornly with its patterns unless a change is made at the unconscious level, where the pattern started.

So how would you do that?

Using hypnosis to deal with unconscious responses

The best way to access, and modify, unconscious patterns is through the state in which they were generated. That is, hypnosis.

You may not have realized you were ‘hypnotized’ into producing this automatic response, but this is in fact a very good way to understand what happens. Something in the initial situation (it doesn’t matter what exactly) created an automatic ’emotional link’ between that sort of situation and this response. So now, whenever you unconsciously sense that you are in a similar sort of situation, you produce the response.

And with hypnosis you can successfully ‘unlink’ this connection again.

Hypnosis is the best and fastest way to change nervous habits

Stop nervous coughing is an audio hypnosis session developed by psychologists specifically to help you comfortably ‘de-program’ unwanted automatic habits.

This highly focused session will teach you how to interrupt the automatic pattern before it gets going and replace it with a much more comfortable way to handle those previously ‘triggering’ situations.

As you listen regularly to your download, you will notice that you increasingly

  • feel more relaxed about life in general
  • have a greater sense of control
  • experience more and more times when the cough simply doesn’t happen
  • begin to forget that you ever had a problem

Symptoms of Nervous Cough

Symptoms of nervous cough are persistent dry coughing. This contrasts with productive cough, which is more probably caused by infections of the respiratory tract, or by chronic or acute pulmonary disease. Because of the mechanism of habit cough is primarily psychogenic, coughing tends to by non-productive, or dry.

Nervous cough is never taken lightly by doctors, because before diagnosing nervous cough, some serious health problems in the respiratory system needing careful and sometimes urgent attention for complete cure, have to be ruled out. It has been noticed most of the times that persistent cough is just an indication of some infection in the upper respiratory tract. In cases the cough persists for a long period of time doctors always initiate differential diagnosis for preventing conditions from worsening.

It is very important to take into account that in adults with chronic cough, the diagnoses of nervous cough, habit cough or psychogenic cough can only be made after an extensive evaluation has been performed that includes ruling out tic disorders and uncommon causes, and cough improves with specific therapy such as behavior modification or psychiatric therapy.

Current expert recommendations state that in these cases, psychological counseling of psychiatric intervention should be encouraged. And it is here where hypnotherapy or self-hypnosis can play an excellent role in the improvement of symptoms of nervous coughing.

This is why it is advised that if any of you feel something like a very dry cough then you must not avoid that condition. Visit the doctor as soon as possible so that if anything is seriously wrong can be treated on time. Nervous cough is not a serious disorder but it becomes chronic if there is no treatment provided. Your stress can take a toll of your life if you allow the conditions to stay. Do not let your stress become life taking. Visit a doctor and find a solution to your dilemmas regarding nervous cough.
