One Of The Best Kept Secrets Of The Hypnosis World Finally Revealed

When I was just starting out in hypnosis I came across a man called William May.
I spoke to him for some time, and soon came to realize that he was unusually good at covert hypnosis.
He taught me how to move beyond the 'standard' method of doing things, and look at this stuff in a new way.

And he certainly had some adventures.
I remember one time he told me about when his friend was always having trouble remembering things.
You know what it's like when you just forgot something you know your ought to know.
But with this friend it just kept happening.
Where she put her car keys, what she had to do today, what she had to do tomorrow...

It was becoming quite a problem.
Now, Will, being quite a crafty hypnotist, could have just run a few patterns and told her she had better recall and access to her memory, he could have done a quick induction and thrown in some suggestions, and hoped they worked, but Will, being an innovator, decided to push the envelope.

If you were watching the conversation they had, you would have noticed him speak to her for just a few minutes, innocently.
As they talked, you would have noticed her seem to become distracted.
To start looking over her shoulder, as if she was trying to see something, but you knew there was nothing there.

Then you would have seen her look again, a look of wonder and fascination on her face at what she had allowed her mind to create.

You see, all Will had done was to give her access to the true resources of her own mind.
He had created for her a dog.
To her this dog was completely real, even though she understood it was a creation of her mind.
And whenever she forgot something that she knew, this dog would simply bark softly in her ear, and remind her.

Imagine having your own little dog with you, telling you everything you needed to know.

William bases many of his innovations on the work of Milton Erickson.

The way Milton used to just talk to people, and in the course of an innocent conversation, they would become cured.

Milton himself was quite a cheeky hypnotist also.
At the hospital where he worked he received a fair bit of ridicule for being a hypnotist.
Other doctors didn't understand hypnosis, and they would just laugh at old Milton.

Well, at first.
These same doctors who laughed at him would often find themselves standing, catatonic, in the middle of long hospital corridors for hours on end, with no idea how they got there, unable to move, their right arm outstretched, almost as if they were about to shake someone's hand...

For literally years I kept telling Will to create a course of his own.
Will was tempted, but he told me he couldn't because he was scared.

It's all very well learning a few pattern interrupts and language tricks, but to really learn this stuff properly does give you power, power that in the wrong hands can be misused.

Will is, in my opinion, one of the best kept secrets of the hypnosis world, and the reason why he has kept such a low profile (but has been behind the scenes in more places than you'd expert) is because Will is one of the most ethical guys I know.
He always uses this stuff to help others and to make the world a better place.
But how can we be sure everyone who learns this stuff, the people he teaches,  have the same responsibility?

Well, when it comes down to it, it's up to you. The fact is if you use these methods to harm of rip off others, in the long run no one suffers more than you. But if you use these techniques as a force for good, then you and everyone around you benefits.

After a lot of nagging and persuasion on my part, Will finally agreed to release his most interesting methods and innovations to the public.

I cannot tell you how excited I am by this.
The innovations he is releasing really are breath taking.

And perhaps the best part is, a whole heap will be free!

When you go to Will's new website you'll  get the option to sign up to his newsletter list and access his private download area.
There you'll find a treasure trove of hypnosis and persuasion resources which you'll be able to learn from and begin applying in your own life right away.

Will has also, very reluctantly, agreed to release an exclusive advanced coaching program to the public to a very select group of people.

I would say I have learned more from Will about how to really be a hypnotist than the summation of all the hypnosis books and DVDs I have ever watched or read.

Trust me when I say Will knows his stuff.
And he's not going it alone.

Amazingly he has managed to find someone who equals his ability and matches him innovation for innovation.
I hardly know Tim Shay, but from what I have seen so far he is definitely someone worth learning from.

So, check out www.masterhypnoticlanguage.com now to access your free downloads.
When you're there, read the letter written by Will (and try not to go too deeply into trance as you do so) and at least consider the offer his is giving you.

Now, I need to warn you, this may be the last post you'll see from me for a little while.
I am finally up to my final exams, and as you can imagine, they take up a lot of time.

The wonderful thing about this is that come December this year I go into hypnosis full time, and then, trust me when I say a revolution is coming to the online hypnosis world!

Not only will you be receiving a veritable bombardment of free hypnosis lessons and resources to help you become a master hypnotist, but I also have two huge projects in the works which I know you are going to immediately fall in love with.

I can't say too much about them here, but I can tell you that one is a 100% free eCourse teaching  some of the most useful Street Hypnosis methods I've come across (and focusing on the practical, guaranteeing you  get this stuff working for you). I know you'll love this course, and not just because of the non existent price tag!

The second program is, if possible, even more exciting.
It looks to solving the number 1 biggest problem faced by nearly everyone trying to learn hypnosis, which still plagues experts and professionals alike. If you ever thought something was missing from your set of hypnotic resources, then get ready for an amazing treat!

So, come December, you had better keep your eyes peeled!
In the mean time, go to www.masterhypnoticlanguage.com now and allow yourself to become a master of covert hypnotic influence.

Cheers
Nathan Thomas

Why Your Hypnotic Inductions And Suggestions Are Failing (and how to eliminate this for good!)

It seems every day five or six copies of the same email (albeit from different addresses) arrive in my inbox;
"Nathan,
I watched a video / read a few articles, and tried a few instant inductions on my [friend, girl friend, sister]
and it doesn't work.
Help."

Hmmm. (fellow trainers will see where I'm going with this, but for you beginners and fellow students, it will all become clear very soon)

Another equally common breed of inquiry is
"I have been doing this for months, but every induction I have done has failed. People just laugh and it just doesn't work.
Help."

Now, in this post let me answer all the 500 varieties of this question in one fell swoop.

If the hypnosis you do isn't working, be you beginner, experienced learner, or life long veteran, it will NEARLY always be fixed by one of the three essential elements below.
(here's a clue, none of them are relaxation :)

Why I said NEARLY is because hypnosis us an unconscious process.
I am not arrogant enough to assume I know to any degree of certainty how the human mind really works, which is why having a rigid set of conditions and expectations in your mind when doing hypnosis is foolish at best.
More on that soon, for now, let's begin!


Three (easy) Ways To Finally Eliminate Failure And Start Making Your Hypnosis Work


1: Understand the difference between the simple mechanics of a technique, and what is really going on.

For example, let's take the arm drop induction (you may know it by the brand, the 8 word induction).
Here's how it works; you hold your hand palm up. They push down upon it. You move your arm away, and say sleep.
Simple.

Well here's the news for you.
The above is less than 0.01% of what is really going on.

There is so much more that goes on behind the scenes.
I'm not talking about the hypnotic language you use, or the deliberate mirroring of their posture and breathing rate (these things are useful, but no where near the biggest part...)

What I am talking about is largely unconscious.
It is your confidence and your expectations.

Your own mindset is the most important part of the hypnotic process.
This controls your sub communications, which include everything from your tone of voice, gestures, breathing rate, body language, posture, gestures, pace of speech.
Everything.

They (the subjects) unconsciously pick up on all of this, so if you are not confident or do not really expect it to work, you are very unlikely to succeed.

So what do you do about it?
Mentally rehearse.
Go inside and imagine it being successful.
How will you feel when you pull off that induction, and notice your suggestions immediately accepted?
What will this feeling really mean to you?
How will your subject look? What will be the look on his / her face before, during and after you succeed with this?

As John Cerbone, inventor of 'Speed Trance;' says (paraphrase) "In my mind they are already in trance long before I do my induction"

Before you do any hypnosis take a deep breath, and step right into those feelings of success.

When you look at your subject, look at them with this feeling of total intent, knowing they will go into trance. It's not a matter of 'forcing' them there, it's a matter of knowing that you are the hypnotist, if you intend it, it will happen.

This is of course what is known as Hypnotic Intent.
In order for your confidence to be justified and your expectations to happen, you need to formulate your intention, and you really need to believe it.

Anthony Jacquin, author of 'Reality Is Plastic' sums this up perfectly when he says; "A hypnotic induction is merely a vehicle for delivering your intent to hypnotize."

When your verbal and nonverbal communications are aligned, when you are congruent, you will amazed by how successful you become.

Take a while to think on this, as it is probably the most important thing you will ever learn about hypnosis.


2: Set The Right Frame

When you ask someone to be hypnotized, what happens?
Do they see it as a challenge to resist your 'hypnotic power'
Do they think of it as a joke, or something they must prove wrong?
Or are they open to explore the power and potential of their own unconscious mind?

Just like when doing the formal hypnosis, when explaining hypnosis and setting the frame, your own confidence and expectations are also essential.

You need to realize that as a hypnotist, you are offering them a unique gift, a wonderful experience which they will forever remember and be grateful for.

You do not want to come off as desperate for them to let you hypnotize. You should have nothing to prove, as you know this stuff works.

Get them on your side right from the start by showing just how they will benefit from hypnosis.
Allow your enthusiasm, your confidence and your passion to speak louder than your words, and the excitement you feel will be immediately mirrored by your subject.

Some people will be more difficult than others at first (although once you gain more experience you'll learn how to use metaphor and language in a way which makes virtually everyone open to being hypnotized) so when you are just starting out please make sure you vary your subjects. Don't just try hypnotize one person a hundred times and then give up.
The more people you hypnotize the better.
(when starting out you'll probably find strangers a lot easier to hypnotize than friends or family)

And hey, be patient.
I am sure there was a time when, you too, thought that hypnosis was nothing more than a man with a goatee beard and a pocket watch murmuring in an exotic accent.
Pace their reality, the way they feel, and lead this towards the frame you want.

for example;
"Yeah, I know, I wouldn't want to give up control and have some nutter messing around inside my head either. The cool thing is, hypnosis isn't like that. You know what it's like when you just relax, go inside your own mind, and kinda zone out? Well when you take this state, and use it to access your unconscious mind, 90% of your true brain power, then that's hypnosis. So if you want to see just how powerful your own mind really is, I'll be happy to do you a favor and help you experience this."

I could go on for hours about how to turn resistance into compliance during pretalks, but that's a post for another day. Just remember, it's all in the frame you set. Think about how you want them to view the hypnotic process, and what would have to happen in order for them to think like this.

3: Utilize!

Remember what I said before about not having a rigid set of conditions around the hypnosis you do?
Just because they do not close their eyes and collapse in a heap on the floor does not mean you have to write everything off as a failure.

Use everything they give you, and utilize their every response.

If they laugh tell them to keep laughing as they go into trance, and the more they laugh the deeper they go.

If they jerk their heads up and look at you like you have gone mad (happened to me once or twice :) just tell them that they are doing fine, to close their eyes (or keep them open) and go way down deep into trance.

Take their every reaction, their every response, and direct it towards your Hypnotic Intent.

Be creative.
Explore, and take every signal they give you as on opportunity to show them just how deep into hypnosis they really are going.

During the audio lesson on advanced utilization skills for Become A Hypnotist - Advanced Hypnosis Certification Training, I talk you through a list of situations and responses and how you can turn them towards you advantage, during pretalk, induction and suggestion.

But you know what it all comes down to?
Flexibility and creativity.
Have fun with this, and enjoy the process of responding directly to anything and everything they give you.

That's It!

Confidence, setting the right frame, and utilization are essential elements of hypnotic success.
You now have all the tools to be a successful hypnotist, all you need now is to integrate what you have learned here.

What you learned above will only really become clear and solid in your mind now with practice.

Remember, this stuff is far more unconscious than conscious.
Put your own spin on these ideas, and interpret them in the way that suits you best.
Develop your ideas with experience and practice, and notice as your understandings change.

The more you do hypnosis, the easier and more interesting it gets.

So, go for it, and hypnotize someone, and enjoy exploring these newfound understandings.

Cheers
Nathan Thomas.

PS
Oh yeah, and even with this, sometimes it may fail.
So what?
Failure will get less frequent as time goes own, but use it as an opportunity to learn.
Ask the subject what happened, and be glad of this valuable chance to learn something useful.
