A lot of people who begin their research into hypnosis often ask the question “Is hypnosis real?” This is a very valid question, and is not one that should be dismissed.
The answer is of course that hypnosis is very real, but with hypnosis being an unregulated industry, there are a number of so called “gurus” and “hypnotists” who really don't have a level of training that is consistent with more professional hypnotists.
This can of course lead people to believe, after one or two failed attempts with hypnosis, that hypnosis doesn't work. The reason hypnosis fails is never because hypnosis doesn't work on the person. Everyone can be hypnotized, despite what some hypnotists may say. It simply comes down to the skill of the hypnotist concerned.
Recent research into hypnosis has shown that people can be broken into two
“suggestibility” types. These include physical and emotional suggestibility. One easy way to think of it is that emotional suggestibility is more common to people who are introvert, whilst physical suggestibility is more common to people who are introvert.
Hypnosis has come a long way within the past thirty years. What was once a field that was used merely as a way to treat psychological ailments and for entertainment, has now become a field that can be used to persuade people to do many, many things.
Traditionally, hypnosis was used very directly, and it is still used in this manner today by many hypnotists. The fact of the matter however, is that only physical suggestibles respond to direct suggestions. Emotional suggestibles respond to indirect suggestions, and it wasn't until the time of Dr. Milton Erickson that a new discreet form of hypnosis began to emerge.
Erickson devised ways to use hypnosis in discreet settings, in a way that co-operated with a person, as opposed to a way that worked against them. Erickson allowed the apparent 50% of the population that “couldn't be hypnotized” to be hypnotized. So when people ask “Is hypnosis real?” just remember that it may be due to a failed experience by a hypnotist who wasn't aware of this new suggestibility typing.
In order for someone to be hypnotized, their suggestibility typing must first be identified. Once this is done, inducing someone into a state of hypnosis becomes a very easy process.
So as you can see, the answer to the question “Is hypnosis real?” is a definite “yes”, however it comes down to the skill of the hypnotist concerned as to whether or not hypnosis will be effective on you, now whether or not “is hypnosis real”.
What Is Covert Hypnosis Exactly?
You may be familiar with the hypnosis you see on TV or at stage shows. You know the kind, the kind where a hypnotist is able to have people sit in a chair and then supposedly turn them into chickens, and things like that.
You may often ask yourself “Is that real, or is the hypnotist just using actors?”. The answer is of course, that yes, it is very real, however you may be surprised to know that there is a much more advanced form of hypnosis than that, a kind of hypnosis that can be used in your day to day life on people without them being aware of it. And this field is known as “covert hypnosis”.
It makes sense, if a hypnotist can hypnotize people at a stage show, then surely he'd be able to do it off the stage as well, when people aren't aware of it? The answer is of course that yes, a trained hypnotist can do just that. You see, entertainment hypnosis is the only form of hypnosis that you're exposed to. Covert hypnosis, because its discreet, is a type of hypnosis you will never heard about, nor will you see it on TV. Covert hypnosis is of course, by its very nature... covert.
It's the type of hypnosis that politicians, faith healers, mentalists, illusionists, even psychics use in order to hypnotize many people into doing things, or thinking certain things. Covert hypnosis is used by professionals each and every day to make people fall in love, to bring them into false belief systems, to make them part with their money, and many other powerful things.
The powers of covert hypnosis are practically endless, and once this field is mastered, many things become possible. But how does it work exactly? Covert hypnosis works by influencing a person's subconscious outside of the person's conscious awareness. Whenever we're consciously aware of a suggestion, we cannot be hypnotized by it. This is because our consciousness contains a critical part to it, which constantly analyzes everything that passes through it.
If our conscious were to come across any information, or suggestion that it didn't agree with, then it would immediately reject it. For example, if I told you right now “you will raise your right hand”, you most likely wouldn't, since I'm giving your consciousness an instruction. If however I plant subtle suggestions within your mind, and then trigger these suggestions subconsciously, without you being consciously aware of it, then it becomes quite possible for me to make you raise your right hand.
As you can see, by its very nature, covert hypnosis isn't obvious. The only real way to tell if someone is using covert hypnosis on you is to learn the field yourself.
How Easy Is It To Learn Covert Hypnosis?
So, you want to learn covert hypnosis? No doubt you're thinking that the process must take years of practice and study, and that it is incredibly difficult. You'd be pleased to know then, that the exact opposite is true.
Trying to learn covert hypnosis may seem to be initially difficult, but at the same time is actually elegantly simple. Learning all the theory behind how and why covert hypnosis works is the overwhelming part, and you may think to yourself “just how will I ever get the confidence to apply any of this”. You will however be surprised to find that once you start practicing it, even if you don't do things perfectly, people will enter into a trance and be suggestible to you quite easily.
You see hypnosis doesn't have to perfect. We all have different personalities, we all speak differently with different vocabularies and tonalities. If you had to learn covert hypnosis “perfectly” then only a few people in the world would be able to do it, which of course is not the case at all. Many thousands of people around the world use covert hypnosis each and every day of their lives, and many of these people come from different cultural backgrounds, languages, and other upbringings.
Therefore the important thing to understand on your journey to learn covert hypnosis is that it's not how well you do it, but how much confidence you have when you do it.
If you have a shaky voice, then a person is not going to be likely to subconsciously vest any form of authority in you. If however you have a firm, assertive, yet at the same time calm and relaxing tonality, then people are going to be naturally suggestible to you, even if you don't apply any other techniques that you would learn in covert hypnosis.
Planting anchors within people, utilizing concepts of NLP, and other such techniques can all be helpful in your study of covert hypnosis, however they're by no means required in order to be a successful covert hypnotist. Many people are naturally able to hypnotize others, and what's most amazing of all, is that these 'natural hypnotists' aren't even aware they're hypnotizing anyone! Some people will just have a natural hypnotic tonality.
So if these people, who haven't spent any time in trying to learn covert hypnosis, can pull off these amazing feats, then you should be able to pull off much more with your knowledge. Of course knowing where to start can be difficult, and if you want to learn covert hypnosis then it's important to find a good course to learn from.
Some Tips To Learn Stage Hypnosis
If you've ever been to a stage hypnosis show, you may have been quite impressed with the seemingly magical feats displayed by the stage hypnotist. Perhaps you thought that you too would like to learn stage hypnosis, and how it works.
In this article I will be discussing the basic principles behind stage hypnosis and how it operates. This should give you an understanding of the techniques involved, and help you in your journey to learn stage hypnosis.
To begin with, a stage hypnotist will always conduct some form of induction with the audience before getting to the real “meat” of the show (which is bringing people up on stage to be hypnotized). This induction normally consists of having all the audience imagine that they're in some distant place, or having them raise both of their hands and imagining that one is lighter or heavier than the other.
What this does is it relaxed the audience and sets them in the mood to be hypnotized. You see, once someone has been hypnotized once, they can easily be rehypnotized again by the same person with just the click of a finger. The trick with stage hypnosis is to hypnotize the audience before volunteers are brought up on stage. Since the volunteers would have been hypnotized at the beginning of the show when they were in the crowd, they will easily fall into hypnosis again once they come up on stage.
This is a crucial step that you should be aware of if you wish to learn stage hypnosis. Most people are not aware that when the hypnotist is guiding them into hypnosis, and explaining to them what hypnosis is, that they're actually becoming perfect volunteers. If the hypnotist just asked someone on the street to come up on stage, then odds are the hypnotist wouldn't be able to hypnotize them with just the click of their fingers.
Now once an audience member comes up on stage, they will already have confidence in the hypnotist, especially since they experience hypnosis earlier, and are aware of what it is. This builds up expectation in the person that hypnosis will work. All the hypnotist must then do is simply click their fingers, and the person will enter into a trance state. Once a person is in this state of trance, they become susceptible to whatever suggestions the hypnotist wishes to plant.
One of the most popular suggestions is of course to make a person believe they're a chicken, although if you want to learn stage hypnosis, it's always good to improvise and try something different.
Now there is of course a lot more to stage hypnosis that what this article has explained, and there is no way I could explain it all within this article alone. Therefore if you want to learn stage hypnosis, then I recommend finding out a good online course that will teach you the techniques required.
