Posts Tagged ‘handshake induction’

The confusion induction is a favorite of many famous hypnotists, especially Paul McKenna. The conscious mind is distracted, readying the subconscious into a state ready to receive hypnotic suggestions.

This is a technique used for therapeutic hypnosis rather than covert. As such you want your subject to either sit or lay in a comfortable position with their eyes closed.

You should read this induction in a slow, deliberate manner.

The Induction
(Read to your subject)

Allow your eyes to close and just let your mind wander wherever it desires.

You are aware of absolutely everything happening around you, yet at the same time you are unaware. As you focus with your subconscious mind your conscious mind is drifting far away and focusing on nothing. Your conscious mind is so far away that it cannot hear or sense anything. Your subconscious mind is in complete control.

You can relax, safe in the knowledge that your subconscious mind has taken charge. Your subconscious mind knows everything and your subconscious mind knows this. Know that your conscious mind is calm, peaceful and completely relaxed. It is off duty now.

Now on the count of five I would like you to begin counting down in your mind from three hundred and sixty all the way down to the number one.

1…
2…
3…
4…
5…

360…
359…
358…
357…
356…
355…

That’s right. Keep counting down in your mind. If you lose track of where you are then start off from where you roughly were before. It doesn’t matter if your mind keeps completely drifting away. Allow yourself to just go with the flow.

As you countdown from three hundred and sixty to one, continue to listen to the sound of my voice.

When training to be a hypnotist it is extremely important to be able to spot the signs of hypnotic trance. These signs indicate when your target has been hypnotized and is ready to absorb your hypnotic suggestions into the subconscious mind.

Look for these Signs of Hypnotic Trance

Blinking rate slows down.

Eyes appear glazed over.

Eyes redden due to increased blood flow.

Eyelids flutter.

Eyes close entirely.

Breathing slows down.

Pulse slows down (check neck for this sign).

Facial muscles become completely relaxed.

Muscles around the face, particularly the eyes, twitch.

Face becomes slightly paler.

Target becomes “immobile”.

Target’s voice becomes slower and deeper.

Instinctive reactions greatly reduced.

No reaction to external noise.

You have their complete attention and focus.

People don’t tend to display every single one of these signs of hypnotic trance, but if you see a handful or more then you can be sure that you have sufficiently hypnotized your target to accept your suggestions.

Today I am going to teach you a simple hypnotic induction that you can add to your arsenal of powerful covert hypnosis tactics. As you may be aware the hypnotic handshake induction was created by Milton Erickson, perhaps the greatest hypnotist to ever live. This means you are going to be learning an easy induction created by one of the very best hypnotists. The hypnotic handshake induction is often taught in expensive NLP workshops but today the knowledge is yours for free.

As the name suggests, in this induction you will need to be shaking hands with your subject to induce a light hypnotic trance. I’m sure that right now you realise the power and potential this holds for you. Think of all the times you shake hands with someone whether it’s with a friend, a customer or a boss. If you want to, you can use the hypnotic handshake induction on anyone you meet.

The basic premise behind the hypnotic handshake induction is to shake the subjects hand and then breaking the flow of the handshake in someway. Common methods of doing this including gently grabbing the subject’s wrist or running your fingers over their palm. Allow me to explain to you why this works. Shaking hands is a behavior so well engrained in the mind that when it doesn’t go “as usual” the mind literally suspends itself in a trance, confused at the situation. The subject is left momentarily confused and this leaves them open to suggestion and direction.

There are only really two skills to this confusion tactic. One is having the nerve to use it. The other is to distract the subject while you are performing and ending the hypnotic handshake induction. You can do this by making an innocuous comment such as “Isn’t it a great day today?”. As the subject processes this comment you should notice they look a little confused and usually they will not have heard what you said so they will either smile blankly or ask you to repeat what you said. This is an excellent sign that the hypnotic handshake induction has worked.

After you have performed the induction it is time to jump in quick with a suggestion or command. What this is depends on who you are talking to and what you desire of them. If you are talking to a customer, for example, you may want to step in with a leading question such as “So what are you looking to buy from me now [Name]?”. The command or suggestion is every bit as important as the handshake induction itself so have what you want to say planned before performing the induction. As you can see from my example the question presumes that the customer is looking to buy something from me, right now. You may be able to imagine how many quick sales this can help you achieve.

The hypnotic handshake induction is something you should probably practice with a willing friend before “going public” with it. However you will find that it really doesn’t take long to master. The version I have taught you above is for using as an induction for covert hypnosis, however with some small changes it can be used during stage or street hypnosis and even hypnotherapy.
