Want to learn how to hypnotize someone?
So you want to learn how to hypnotize someone eh? … Well, ok, here goes …
It’s both more complex and simpler than you might think. Remember my other post “The first thing you need to know about hypnosis is …“! As it suggests, learning to hypnotize someone is more the art of letting them give permission to themselves to ‘let go’ or ’shift state’ than it is about anything else – you see, it’s about them not you.
A slight correction, it’s about them and it’s about you. Now you see, in order to learn to hypnotize someone you need to (IMHO) experience it yourself. I mean, how could you ‘lead someone’ to experience the hypnotic state if you don’t know what it is firsthand?
So this is the next thing you need to know in order to learn to hypnotize anyone inf fact:
Know what it is like to experience hypnosis yourself
And how do you go about doing this? Well, there a gazillion audio and video files out there that you can stream or download – a lot of them for free (Warning: never experiment with any of this trance stuff when operating machinery or a vehicle of any kind). You can pay for and download eBooks, order CD’s or DVD’s. You can go to the bookstore and get ‘guided visualizations’, meditations or trancey music. You can even go to a hypnotist or hypnotherapist if you want.
You may form opinions about what it is and what it isn’t once you’ve experienced it – and we’ll explore my take on it as well – but in the meantime, in order to learn to hypnotize someone I believe you need to first learn to hypnotize yourself!
Have a great trip!
