Many people are under the impression that conversational hypnosis is either black magic or is a conjurer's trick. However, hypnosis has been around for the past 3000 years and it has many forms, one of which is conversational hypnosis. This type of hypnosis is using the power of your voice to make friends and influence people; apart from that, you may have the power to put a person into an hypnotic trance, possibly making his receptive mind open to suggestions that you make. The art of conversational hypnosis can be mastered with practice.
Instructions
1. Gain the attention of your subject. You have often seen this example in romantic fiction. The heroine of the story feels a sudden affinity for the hero just by hearing his voice speak. She feels herself being hypnotized into doing what he suggests. This autosuggestion is the subconscious basis of conversational hypnosis. The hero has gained the attention of the lady and is trying his best to make her feel that she can trust him.
2. Build rapport. Establishing positive rapport between the subject and the hypnotist is an important part of conversational hypnotism. The subject's mind is not going to be open to suggestions if there is no mental affinity and trust.
3. Pay attention to the beginning of your conversation with the subject. An experienced hypnotist should know how receptive the subject's mind is going to be to the suggestions that will be implanted in it slowly and steadily.
4. Misdirect. Once you find that your subject is relating to you and has a clear understanding about what you understand his problem is, he is going to allow you to take over his mind. This is when you are going to do a little bit of misdirection, by turning the focus of his problems into another diversionary direction. His mind is going to go off on a tangent by looking at a problem, from your point of view.
5. Suggest a solution. This is the time when you are going to put in the suggestion of a solution into the subject' s mind. The solution is going to be embedded into the subconscious of the subject in a slow and steady manner.
6. Look for acceptance. This is the stage when the subject begins to accept the solution as something he has thought of himself. The outcome is always going to be positive, because his subconscious has accepted the fact that the embedded suggestion is the best answer and the exact solution to all his problems.
