Covert Hypnosis: Your Mind is Making it Happen

November 8, 2009 by editor Leave a Comment

Basically… All my expectations, all the things that I thought I wanted to happen, all the outcomes that I’d like to see happen as a result from me writing these articles were turned over to my “higher self.” My unconscious. And that’s what you need to do when you find yourself wanting to improve any area of your social life. Just ask yourself: “With this power that you’re gaining by reading this entire book, what do you wish to improve?”

Do you want more sales?

Better relationships? A raise?

The best deals? Better speech performance? Sex?

The truth is, you can have it, and rather easily. By now I think you can agree to that. So think of this article as a tool. And as you read the rest of these articles, begin to imagine one thing that you want most to happen as a result of using covert hypnosis. What is the end result that you’d like to experience? Write it down now. Take 5 minutes to imagine the end result of what you’d like to experience as a result of using conversational hypnosis.

Think about that now, then, keep reading… Because what will happen as you read the rest of these articles, you’ll come across tools, techniques and strategies that will “click” inside. Your unconscious mind will record these tools. So, as you go out into the real world with the thoughts of your end result – when you find yourself in the potential situation to make that manifest before your eyes, your higher self will use what you’ve learned in these articles as a valuable resource.

I can’t count on my fingers or toes how I’d have an end result in mind, and when the opportunity was before me, I’d be in mid-conversation and automatically without even thinking about it, apply a particular covert hypnosis strategy. And it always seemed to come at the precise moment. So realize it’s not necessary to master every skill. You don’t have to practice what you’re learning consistently before you can go out in the real world and apply it.

Just allow your mind to open up and absorb the information each time your read these articles. Give yourself permission to use it at the right time and place. Turn your trust over to your unconscious mind, your “higher self” to apply the tools and strategies you’re learning automatically, without even thinking about.

When you do, you can dump traditional ways to communicate with other people. You can improve your communicating abilities just by trusting that your mind is making it happen. As that happens to you, you’ll find out what it’s like to be a real, genuine master of unconscious communication.

In Self Hypnotic State you are in Full Control

November 7, 2009 by editor Leave a Comment

One question that arises is: “If I’m under hypnosis, how can I give myself suggestions?” During the hypnotic state, it must be remembered, the subject is always aware of what is going on. You hear what is said, follow directions and terminate the state when told to do so. In the self-hypnotic state, you are in full control. Therefore, you can think, reason, act, criticize, suggest or do whatever you desire. You can audibly give yourself suggestions, or you can mentally give yourself suggestions. In either case, you do not rouse from the hypnotic state until you give yourself specific suggestions to do so.

Many feel if they audibly give themselves suggestions, they will “awaken.” In hypno-analysis, the subject answers questions during the hypnotic state. Having the subject talk does not terminate the state. You can keep the talkative subject under hypnosis as long as you want. Furthermore, the subject can be sitting erect with his eyes open and still be under hypnosis. Carrying this further, the subject may not even be aware that
he is under hypnosis. He can be given a cue not to remember when the therapist makes a certain motion or says a certain word that he will go back into the hypnotic state but still keep his eyes open. Only an experienced hypnotist could detect the change.

Another frequent question is: “How do I arouse myself from the self-hypnotic state?” You merely say to yourself that upon counting to five you will open your eyes and wake up feeling fine. Many times the subject falls asleep while giving himself posthypnotic suggestions. This is not undesirable since the suggestions will spill over into the subconscious mind as he goes from consciousness to unconsciousness.

Everyone Can Be Hypnotized

November 7, 2009 by editor Leave a Comment

Achieving hypnosis is a matter of directing this suggestibility that we all possess into the channels that will finally produce the hypnotic state. It can be much more complicated than this explanation in many cases, but let us use this as a working premise.

Everyone can be hypnotized. The time required for achieving hypnosis will vary from subject to subject. We will discuss some of the reasons for this in a subsequent chapter, but for our discussion at this time we need to understand this point. I have encountered numerous individuals who were extremely disappointed because they did not respond to hypnosis immediately or after several attempts. They wanted to know “what was wrong.” An explanation that nothing was wrong somehow did not satisfy these individuals. “After all,” they argued, “didn’t I go to a hypnotist especially to be hypnotized?” Some insinuated that perhaps the hypnotist
wasn’t too good.

Let me explain that most subjects need to be conditioned for hypnosis, and this conditioning is helped when the subject practices certain conditioning exercises that I shall discuss in detail later, in a post titled “How To Attain Self-Hypnosis.” In my teaching, I have found that about one out of ten subjects responds to the first attempt at hypnosis. One cannot make a definite statement as to the length of time necessary to learn self-hypnosis, but it is my experience that this usually takes about one month. I have had subjects learn self-hypnosis in about 30 minutes, but I must also relate that I have worked with subjects for one year before they achieved it.

For the most part, the laws of learning apply to self-hypnosis as with anything else that one would want to learn. It can be a relatively simple procedure, or it can be very perplexing. The answer lies not so much with the hypnotist as with the subject.

Hypnotizing Ourselves by Increasing our Suggestibility

November 7, 2009 by editor Leave a Comment

Suggestion plays a tremendously important role in our daily lives. It begins from naming the baby with an appropriate name to securing a suitable place for interment. I would like to call your attention to a fascinating book dealing with the unconscious reasons why we do many of the things that we do. You will be intrigued with every page of the book. It is called Underground Hypnosis.

I think is that we are all suggestible and, therefore, being hypnotized or hypnotizing ourselves is just a matter of increasing the suggestibility that we already possess. Doesn’t the hypnotist begin by suggesting relaxation? Doesn’t she usually begin by requesting the subject to fix his attention on a particular object? Next, she suggests to the subject that his eyes are becoming heavy and tired. As soon as the subject closes his eyes, she suggests that he will be in a deep hypnotic state. I am sure that you are familiar with this procedure.

With each step, the hypnotist is guiding the subject along directed lines to get him to accept further suggestions without question or doubt. When the subject achieves the ultimate state in this procedure, he has been hypnotized. He then accepts suggestions without hesitating.

Let us continue with this same thought. Suppose I say to you, “I’m going to stick you with this pin. It won’t hurt.” Would you let me stick you with the pin? Obviously not. Let us suppose that you have been hypnotized and I repeat the same suggestion. What happens then? You readily accept the suggestion as being factual. Should I proceed to stick you with the pin, you do not even flinch. In fact, you do not even feel the pain. Does this sound incredible? Isn’t this exactly the same procedure that the dentist uses with his patient when she has hypnotized him for the purpose of painless dental work?

Underground Hypnosis: What you Should know About

November 7, 2009 by editor Leave a Comment

Underground Hypnosis has been defined as a state of heightened suggestibility in which the subject is able to uncritically accept ideas for self-improvement and act on them appropriately. When a hypnotist hypnotizes his subject, it is known as hetero-hypnosis. When an individual puts himself into a state of hypnosis, it is known as self-hypnosis. In both cases, the subject has achieved a heightened state of suggestibility. Even in hetero-hypnosis, the subject really controls the response to suggestions. Actually, all hypnosis is really a matter of self-hypnosis. The subject enters into the hypnotic state when he is completely ready to do so. This may require from one to many attempts before it is achieved. Even if the subject insists that he wants to be hypnotized immediately, he may be resisting hypnosis unconsciously.

In self-hypnosis the same thing usually takes place. The subject is anxious to achieve self-hypnosis, but somehow the state eludes him. What’s wrong? It may be that he is unconsciously resisting it, hasn’t conditioned himself sufficiently, or has achieved the hypnotic state and doesn’t know he is in the state. This last statement may be surprising, but we will examine it in detail a little later on.

Most experts agree that about 90 percent of the population can be hypnotized. My own feeling is that probably 99 percent can be hypnotized. Who among us is not influenced by suggestion? Aren’t we all, as we have seen, influenced by the suggestions of advertising? Don’t we all have a tendency to believe what we read in the paper, hear on the radio or see on television? Aren’t we all convinced that a name-brand article is better than one that is not so well-known?

How to Easily Use Self-Hypnosis

November 7, 2009 by editor Leave a Comment

We are not suggesting that underground hypnosis can take the place of all forms of psychotherapy. We do recommend it as an adjunct to therapy when indicated. Used judiciously, it can contribute a great deal to the individual’s physical and emotional well-being and happiness.

As a professional hypnotist for many years, I have seen astounding and apparently miraculous results by individuals using self-hypnosis. Many of these cases seem unbelievable to those not familiar with hypnotic phenomena. It should be remembered, though, that many individuals seek hypnosis only when all other forms of therapy have failed. This is so common that hypnosis has come to be known as a port of last call. Yet, despite the seeming hopelessness of such cases, medical literature lists thousands of remarkable recoveries.

There is nothing hit or miss about hypnosis. Used intelligently, the results are the same for all those who are properly motivated. Nor are the results singular to modern hypnotists alone. In reviewing the literature going back more than 100 years, the same gratifying results were obtained. The reader would do well to scan some out-of-print books on hypnosis at the library to understand the point further.

The Underground Hypnosis Course is written for the layman. The step-by-step instructions should afford the reader a means of acquiring self-hypnosis. The necessary material is here. The reader need only follow the instructions as they are given.

Shifting from Hetero-Hypnosis to Self-Hypnosis

November 6, 2009 by editor Leave a Comment

In modern society we have many cults, religions and methodologies which have mental discipline as their goal. The best example of a methodology is psychosomatic medicine which deals with the interrelationship of the mind and body in the production of mental or physical illness. The rapid growth of hypnosis in the last few years is another example, and it is gratifying to see that the emphasis in this field is now shifting from hetero-hypnosis to self-hypnosis.

Self-hypnosis is a highly suggestible state wherein the individual can direct suggestions to himself. It is a powerful tool in any therapeutic process, and highly motivated subjects can parallel the success of hetero-hypnosis through their own efforts. Self-hypnosis can be used as a palliative agent and can even afford lasting results in many areas of the organism. Self-hypnosis can alleviate distressing symptoms, substitute strong responses for weak responses, help overcome bad habits, create good habits and help one’s power of concentration. The total personality is eventually changed to the point where it can function adequately in an increasingly difficult environment.

In learning self-hypnosis, the subject does not relinquish control of himself as is commonly believed. Actually, more control is gained. Self-sufficiency and self-confidence are inevitable results. It is well to remember, however, that even good things may be overdone, and good judgment is necessary for favorable results. Neither hypnosis nor self-hypnosis should ever be used indiscriminately. The effectiveness of self-hypnosis depends upon many factors. Strong motivation, intelligent application of suggestions and diligence are prerequisites.

What can we Expect from Self Hypnosis?

November 6, 2009 by editor Leave a Comment

All of us like to think of actions and reactions as a result of logical thought processes but, in fact, suggestion influences our thinking a much more than logic. Consciously or unconsciously, our feelings about almost everything are largely molded by ready-made opinions and attitudes fostered by mass media. We cannot buy a car or sunglasses without paying a tribute to the impact of suggestion. Right or wrong, most of us place more confidence in what “they” say than we do in our own powers of reason. This is the basic reason why psychiatrists are in short supply. We distrust our own mental processes and look for a specialist to guide us regarding what to think and feel.

Despite this trend to adopt our attitudes from others, the huma being has always been dimly aware that he can influence his own destiny by directing his thoughts and actions into constructive channels. He has always, to some
extent, known that his mind exerts a powerful influence on his body, and that thoughts can have harmful or helpful effects on his emotional and physical health.

The ancient Egyptian sleep temples and the attempts by early physicians to drive evil spirits out of the body were both attempts to influence the body through the mind.

Nowadays, a lot of inspirational literature proves that millions of modern people recognize the efficacy of constructive thoughts. What most of them do not recognize is that they are capable of implanting these beneficial thoughts in their own minds without reference to any external agents. This can be done through self-hypnosis.

How to Stop Over Analyzing Things

November 6, 2009 by editor Leave a Comment

There are few things around us that do not require any sort of explanation. They happen because they were supposed to happen. There is nothing very serious related to their occurrence and there is no point spending time over analyzing such situations. There are some people who try to analyze each and every situation so minutely that they end up getting confused. This confusion results in disturbance in our mind and heart which ultimately lead us to a state which is full of dilemmas. It is very important for such people to stop over analyzing things and get out living life comfortably and normally.

It is very important for us to let go certain things and do not spend time thinking about them because many things happen which have absolutely no meaning. You have to differentiate between such situations and give importance to situations which are actually important. Analyzing situations perfectly is extremely important because it helps you in keeping yourself normal. A person who over analyzes situations is not normally accepted by people who are around them because they feel irritated. Not everyone analyzes situations to such an extreme extent.

It is important that you do not take every situation seriously. So if you analyze a situation to seriously then please stop over analyzing. This will only make your and other’s life difficult. A person gets nothing from analyzing a situation. Over analyzing give tension to a person and make him feel uncomfortable. So start leading a life which normal and a bit simple. One way to stop over analyzing situation is doing self hypnosis. Hypnosis really works because it calms the subconscious mind and directs it to things which are more important and needs your concentration.

You must try out self hypnosis if you want to finally stop over analyzing. Self hypnosis will try to mould your subconscious mind and will stop you from over analyzing unimportant things.

How to Overcome Shame and Guilt

November 6, 2009 by editor Leave a Comment

Whenever a person commits something which is not justifiable and is not correct then he often feel shameful of his act or he feels guilty of doing it. There is a huge difference between a feeling of shame and guilt. A person feels shameful when he is disappointed from what he has done and is feeling extremely bad. When some person dishonors a person because of his act then he feels shame. Guilt arises when a person realizes that his act has hurt someone. Guilt is often related with acts of crime. Overcoming such negative feelings is very important because no one can live in a state of shame happily.

So overcoming shame is essentially important. Now the question that arises is how to overcome shame. Overcoming shame is not very difficult. Obviously it is easily said but not easily done. You will have to follow the steps that I am going to mention in the next few lines if you want to overcome shame. Living with such emotions and feeling is the most difficult thing because it does not allow you to concentrate on any other thing. It grips a person from inside so hard that a person finds it hard to trounce over it. But a person with such strong negative emotions also reaches a saturation point when can not take any such thing any more. At this point of time that person must follow these steps:

First of all realize what have you done that are making you feel this way. After analyzing the shameful act done by you say sorry to all those who were hurt by you.

After you have confessed about your act to others and also apologized for your mistake you will naturally start feeling relaxed.

For overcoming shame the thing which is more important than being forgiven by person whom you hurt is to forgive yourself.

Until and unless you exonerate yourself you will not be able to overcome shame.

Absolve and let go the past. Promise to yourself that whatever you did was a mistake and you will never ever repeat it. Make sure you never think about your past again but you must learn from your past.
