Sean, Thanks for posting the video. Do you do the head roll deepener immediately after the induction? (That's what I would figure, but I thought I'd ask.) Thanks, James

John--I was just commenting something similar to that over in the speed trance group. I like your method a lot, especially combining expectancy and surprise. *adds to list of things to play with at my next demo* James

Joe, This is an old posting but since it was recently added to, I will offer a suggestion :) You are correct in your estimation of the value of expectancy in your instant induction. Here is a simple example that works very well: You say it's oka...

Joe, I really love that idea. It's a very gentle way to get around resistance. (A lot of people think instant inductions have to be authoritarian, which is all wrong.) I noticed while working with Sean Andrews's video about the Elman induction, ...

What is beyond my comprehension is why you Scott would announce via email and via the front page of HT that the hypnosummit videos might be available to pirate. Why make it easy for the those who wish to steal your stuff?! If the thief had perma...

If the secondary gain is worth more then the benifit of losing the problem, then they are doing just fine. Ask them why they are in your office. Often times they will then explain why the its worth more to lose the problem. I challenge most of m...

Joe,

In reference to your question as to what happens if the subject does not feel what you suggest:

I have found that there is only a few reasons why this would happen, almost all are based around your directions not being followed for one reason or another.

The reasons are mostly categorized into 4 groups:
1. The instructions were not understood
(what did he you mean by that? What does deeper mean? etc.)

2. The subject trying to "help" thus circumventing your instructions
(instead of taking the stairs one by one they shoot down to the bottom and wait for the next instruction kind of thing) This is why I always preface the induction with "there is nothing you can do to help me, other than to do an internal body scan and just look for the feeling I suggest."

3. The lack of desire to be hypnotized, either because of things like fear or even that their superconscious doesn't feel they deserve the help..(aka..I'm not worthy) This is usually solved with parts therapy, finding out if a part of them is standing in the way of them going into trance.

4. The ego. Wanting to "prove" that they can't be hypnotized.
When you explain that the conscious mind can only focus on one thing at a time, and that if they can do something and think of something else at the same time, it is a trance state where the body is automatically reacting, and all humans react this way as a species. It shows them that if they don't go into trance it is because they don't want to.. not because of your inability.

I always stress to the client that hypnosis is about desire, and permission. When encountering a problem, the most common reasons using the induction I gave you, are number two and number three.

That being said: There is one more reason that I have only run into only once. The subject is so emotionally repressed because of past trauma, that they literally can't feel anything. They have literally turned off their own ability to feel. You can switch modalities with these to one of the other senses.. taste, smell, etc to get around it.

Hope that helps
John

Hi Joe, sorry it has taken me forever to get back to you! Only need to pass the Foundations course to become a Certified Hypnotist. You can join AHA and get insurance for that level of certification. You do not need to take the advanced courses to get insurance and/or join AHA.
peace, michelle

Joe, that was a wonderful, energizing trip .... I sure need Patience..now! 3-2 -1-0 deeper 3-2-1-0 patience...Stamped on.... That's better! Sigh....
Thanks!

Joe i do not think you need to finish HMI before you can be a AHA member. Did you do the foundations course ?
At 2:54pm on January 23, 2009, Michelle Braun said…
Hi Joe, Check out HMI - the Hypnosis Motivation Institute http://www.hypnosis.edu/. (Aino and I both took their classes.) You can become a certified hypnotist by taking their free class. Then join the AHA and the union to get insurance. http://www.hypnosis.edu/aha/insurance/

peace,
Michelle

There's a book "Instant Self-Hypnosis" by Forbes Blair. It's not expensive. All about reading to do trance work.
