What to do Before Giving Yourself Therapeutic Suggestions

by Leave a Comment

Before beginning to give yourself therapeutic suggestions, you could give yourself the following suggestions which give you a _specific length of time_ that you will work with self-hypnosis:  

“I shall work with self-hypnosis for 15 minutes. At the end of that time, I shall open my eyes and wake up feeling wonderfully well, wide awake, confident, cheerful and optimistic. The moment I open my eyes,

I’ll feel refreshed. In case of any outside danger, I’ll be able to awaken immediately, be fully alert and act accordingly.” You will notice that these suggestions take into consideration the possibility of something happening of danger to the individual, such as fire, etc. These points arise in the minds of most individuals attempting self-hypnosis and are well taken. You could also set an alarm clock to awaken you at a designated time.

Let us assume to arouse yourself you gave yourself a suggestion to open your eyes and be wide awake at the count of five. You count to five and for some reason you are unable to open your eyes. First of all, DON’T WORRY. Remain relaxed and give yourself the suggestions over again, emphasizing to yourself that at the count of five you will absolutely, positively be able to open your eyes very easily and will feel fine. You then begin the count again reiterating between each number that you will positively open your eyes at the count of five and be wide awake. This should do it. Should this not do it, may I reassure you again, DON’T BECOME ALARMED. Relax for a few minutes and try again. You’ll be able to open your eyes and wake up.

Sneak Phrases for Covert Hypnosis

by Leave a Comment

Yes! Finally! The famous “sneak phrases.” Now it’s time to start having fun! In this article I’m going to give you a few of them so that you realize how they work. I’m going to give you my favorite phrases.

So what is a sneak phrase?

It’s simply a set of words that cause people to go into a “waking trance.” Most people who think about hypnosis think “you are getting very sleepy” – when covert hypnosis is not that at all.

When you apply covert hypnosis, it’s not necessary to put people into deep sleep. Putting people into a waking trance is actually quite fun because you get people actively involved.

How do you know when people go into a waking trance? Here are the “tell all” signs:

•   Their face changes color

•   They focus straight in front of them and “visualize” what you’re describing

•   Their posture changes

•   Their eyes dart around

•   They turn one of their ears towards you

•   They freeze

•   They nod their head in agreement

•   The pay close attention

•   The whites of their eyes grow bigger

•   Their pupils grow bigger

•   They relax (you can see their shoulders hunch and the muscles in their face will “let go” and allow gravity to pull them down).

Now, the best way to get people into a waking trance is to “shuffle” their brain into mild-unconscious mode. And you do that by using sneak phrases.

When you first begin to apply covert hypnosis, it’s always good to start with a question.

Here are a few hypnotic sneak phrases that accomplish this:

•   What’s it like when you (command goes here).

•   Have you ever (command goes here)

•   I don’t suppose you could (command goes here), but if you could (see that, do that, feel that) what’s it like when you… 

•   If you were to (command goes here), how would you go about doing that?

Covert Hypnosis: Experiment with Different Thought Patterns, Attitudes and Intentions

by Leave a Comment

You see, when people don’t respond positively to you when you meet them, it’s only because of the thoughts you have running through your brain. Start searching and experimenting with different thought patterns, attitudes and intentions. Once you find the success, roll out with it to experience predictable social events – with absolute certainty, covert hypnosis will help you for sure. Now supposing you have found the right thoughts and attitudes to have, now what?

The next step is to simply pace the person. Pacing is nothing more than matching a person. You can match a person’s:

•   Gestures

•   Posture

•   Tone of voice

•   Pace at which they speak

•   Body movements – even subtle ones like scratching your nose

•   Breathing

Naturally, when we share similarities with a person we will already match a person without having to be consciously aware of it or by simply asking “What must the person be thinking, feeling and imagining?” For example, if I’m talking with a person and we begin talking about a subject we both enjoy, we naturally share like interest so our postures, gestures, tone of voice etc…, may already match each others without my having to be consciously aware of it. This, by far is the easiest way to get into rapport. However, we aren’t always this lucky. Sometimes it’s required of you to literally try to “mirror” a person’s unconscious movements by putting forth the conscious effort.

This requires greater skill. How could one have a conversation with a person, pay attention to them, yet at the same time remain aware of how they are talking, moving, breathing etc? Answer: practice. There’s a fine line between offending someone by appearing to “mock” them. Meaning, you don’t have to match them completely right away.

With most people, you’ll find there’s about a 30 second window before a “mirror” move is required. This way, it doesn’t seem like there’s literally a mirror in front of the person and you’re trying desperately to play the role of the image in the mirror.

For example: if a person crosses their legs, you could cross yours in 25 seconds or so instead of right away. If they change their posture from a more relaxed to more “correct” you can do the same about 15 seconds after. Obviously, this appears to be more natural, and eventually the person’s unconscious mind will begin to think “I don’t know why, but I really like this person.”

Once you’ve successfully paced a person and the liking between the both of you has increased, then you can begin to “lead” them.

Gaining rapport with a person is nothing more than appearing to be like the person. Simply pretending to be the person you’re talking to is more than enough, in my opinion. It’s never faulted me. Start there and if anymore skills are required, use the easy to apply techniques taught in this article. Now, once you’ve gained rapport successfully with another, you then begin to make the shift from appearing to be like them to leading them.

We are Able to Condition Ourselves to Various Stimuli with Underground Hypnosis

by Leave a Comment

Underground hypnosis works because we are able to condition ourselves to various stimuli. We condition ourselves consciously and unconsciously to many activities. When we experience anxiety, it stems from a conditioning process which could have been conscious or unconscious. In self-hypnosis, the individual consciously works toward implementing and strengthening his own inherent strength and resources. These objectives, when attained, result in feelings of confidence, relaxation, self-mastery and well-being.

Furthermore, hypnosis utilizes a natural mental process. We all know that placebos work admirably in a number of cases. The dictionary defines the word placebo as, “an inactive substance or preparation, administered to please or gratify a patient, also used in controlled studies to determine the efficiency of medicinal substances.” Many controlled trials have shown that people achieve similar results whether they take a placebo (which they think is the real medication) or real medication that was prescribed. Several years ago many such tests were carried out with antihistamines to prevent colds. The results were always the same.

We are interested in what makes the placebo act as effectively as the true medication. It stands to reason that a chain reaction is set up, actually causing a physiological result from a psychological reaction.

The unsuspecting patient declares, “I’ve never felt so good in my life.” Yet, this would never have happened if he didn’t think he was taking the marvelous new medicine. A scientific study by one of the leading pharmaceutical companies concluded that one third of the effectiveness of any medication depends upon the faith and trust that the patient has in the prescribing physician.

I am sure that the placebo results and the patient’s faith in the physician as contributing factors to the effectiveness of medications do not come as a revelation. We are all aware of such information. Our problem is how to harness this unconscious process for constructive goals. The answer is through underground hypnosis.

How to Gain and Keep Rapport All Times

by Leave a Comment

If you don’t have rapport, then they simply won’t like you, and it becomes difficult to covertly hypnotize them so it’s essential you gain and keep rapport at all times…

• If you’re selling something, it’s far better to have “Here’s a potential new friend” running through your brain rather than “let’s get this sucker to sign.”

• If you’re seducing others, it’s far better to have “Hmmm, here’s a person that I could get to know, let’s see if we could share something special” running through your brain rather than “Let’s go to bed together.”

• If you’re persuading your kids to listen to you or to obey, it’s far better to have “I care about you a lot and I’m only looking to serve as a good role model” running through your brain rather than “I’m your parent and you’ll listen to me because I run the house.”

• If you’re speaking before large groups of audiences it’s far better to have “We’re all equal here, and I’m open to you all” running through your brain rather than “I’m speaking and I’m the expert; now pay attention and listen.”

With rapport, the first signal a person will “pick up” on is your thoughts. Before you even make eye contact, it’s important you have your objective in mind. What do you intend to accomplish with communicating with them?

Achieve all these goals with covert hypnosis.

This is where most people make their first mistake. Then, it leads to more mistakes.

Let’s take for example the guy who wants to meet women. Every time he approaches her, he accidentally thinks to himself:

“I’ve got to get her to go home with me” “She probably has a boyfriend” “I’ll probably screw it up” “I always meet the wrong women”

Now, if you’ve read everything in these articles up until this point, it’s obvious that the thoughts he’s holding in his mind are coming true.

But what if he thought instead things like:

“I attract women easily”

“I’m a fun guy to be around” “I love who I am”

“She’s going to love me because I know that if I love myself first, she will too!”

Do you think he’d get better results? Of course he would! 

Now, this can applied to any subject. What if you’re salesman? What thoughts could you start replacing right now that’ll bring you more positive results?

Conversational Hypnosis: The Value of Building Rapport

by 83 Comments

Rapport is simply appearing to another person’s unconscious mind that the two of you are alike. When you’re properly in rapport with another person, they naturally think “I don’t know why, but I really like you!”

People who share like interests naturally find themselves gaining rapport with each other. The best thing you can do to establish rapport is to imagine you can achieve rapport with people easily. This will prove to be a good first step.

Now, when people are in a rapport, they more than likely share the following similarities:

•   They breathe together at the same rate

•   Their postures match

•   They speak at the same pace, tone and pitch

•   They use the same gestures

Most of the time, this is all done outside both parties conscious awareness. Since I’m a person who likes to get to know people on a genuine level, I gain rapport quickly with an individual. You can do the same thing.

When you first start communicating with a person, answer in your own mind a very important question and trust the answers that come to you. Ask “What is going on inside the person? What must they be thinking, feeling, imagining?”

And be selective about what you’re thinking…

Even thoughts create energy and it’s been shown that people can “pick up” on your thoughts about them. For example: if you’re angry, a person’s unconscious mind can detect it and may mistake you being angry with them whether your anger is towards them or not. 

So it’s very important what you have running through your brain when you’re gaining rapport with others and even during the entire conversation. It only takes one wrong attitude or thought about a person that can break your rapport. Build rapport through conversational hypnosis.

You Are in Control and Nobody can Get to You

by Leave a Comment

Protecting yourself isn’t resisting. It’s already holding in your mind another belief about yourself other than what the covert hypnotist is trying to get you to believe because after all, one of the most difficult tasks of a covert hypnotist is trying to change a person’s belief.

It can take months of repetition to accomplish that, even years! 

In short, start believing you are in control and nobody can get to you. It’s just can’t happen. The universe doesn’t allow it.

You Have the Power to Protect Yourself

by Leave a Comment

You’ll begin to notice that whatever it was that you once opposed, and fought against eventually just won’t show up anymore. I met this woman once who was a hypochondriac, and every time she saw on TV one of those silly and covert hypnotic-filled drug commercials on TV, she’d think she had the illness. She told me that she felt like she had to “fight” against it in her mind.

So, what we did instead is started to show her how to believe that her body was healed of everything. That she did not have any sicknesses. That nothing could harm her and that she was the healthiest she’s ever been.

A few weeks later, she told me she noticed “weird” things. “What kind of weird things?” I asked. She then proceeded to talk about how now when she watches TV she doesn’t see any of those silly commercials anymore whether she gets up to go get something, or flips the channel at the right moment. How she doesn’t believe that she can get sick anymore. About how all those things she thought she had – were gone!

Listen, one of the things that most new aspiring covert hypnotists will make is that it’s scary to know how it works because you realize it really truly is everywhere you turn. But it doesn’t have to be. Always remember that you have the ability to create what you experience.

So here’s what to do:

Turn those attempts you witness around. Don’t resist them. Accept that they’re trying while holding in the back of your mind that you’re something else instead. That’s when you have the power to protect yourself. Use the power of covert hypnosis.

Hypnosis Will not Work With Skeptics

by Leave a Comment

Hypnosis will not work with skeptics. Every so often such a person comes to my office seeking help. He tells me that his family physician or his spouse feels he should take my course in self-hypnosis. I inquire if he feels he might benefit from the course. If his answer is not positive, and if after talking to him at length about the benefits of hypnosis, I still feel he is not ready for the course, I suggest another mode of treatment for him. The reason for this is that unless the person is optimistic and enthusiastic about self-hypnosis, it just isn’t going to work as effectively as it would otherwise. The very nature of a skeptical attitude limits the constructive forces that we wish to harness.

Occasionally, individuals want indisputable proof that hypnosis is going to help them. It is impossible to give them the proof and unqualified reassurance that they seek. Yet, these same people do not require proof from their physicians. No one can guarantee success. However, I do point out that the continued and intelligent use of self-hypnosis can be instrumental in directing the healing, curative, constructive forces of nature.

Many times, a metaphysical rather than a scientific approach is required. It’s a matter of trying to satisfy the patient’s needs. At times, it is helpful to allow the patient to attend a class in self-hypnosis. Being able to communicate and identify with other individuals seeking self-hypnosis often is enough to change his attitude. This is especially true when one or more of the students relates dramatic changes.
