How to hypnotize a person for beginners

So you want to know how to persuade (or hypnotize) a person to do what you want or a least to think in the way you want them to. As you probably know it is very difficult to convince anyone to do something and hypnosis is the best way to do this.


Getting started
So what is the first thing you need to do when hypnotizing a person? This would be a hypnosis induction which is the process of putting the person you are hypnotizing into a trance “or wakeful sleep” where their minds are more open to suggestion. We slip in and out of these “wakeful sleeps” everyday and if you are watching the government warnings about driving on TV they refer to them as micro sleeps where you still function in autopilot on your task at hand (driving, watching TV, listening to a business meeting) but your mind is almost switched off. So the hypnotic induction is about getting a persons mind into this state, there are many different techniques which you can use such as analogies, tone of voice, physical surroundings etc…(look at the link for more information).


Prevent surrounding interruption
When you are hypnotizing a person you need to be sure that there are no outside interruptions because a break in their trance state can cause all your hard work to come undone so when you are in a hypnosis process try to be in a secluded environment that is away from distractions. As you become more advanced as a hypnotists this will start to matter less and less because of the connection that you can create with a person but in the beginning I advise a personal area to do it in.


Subtle suggestion
It is all about being subtle when you start creating suggestion in a persons mind. If you are to direct then sometimes you can lose the affect you desire. Hypnosis is all about implanting suggestion into a persons mind without their direct knowledge and forcing their subconscious to process the suggestion into a solution. This is much easier to do once you have your person induced and you are in control of the conversation. Using a persons emotional triggers works really well by creating a solution to a problem that they might have and confirming that this is the best solution available.


Further in depth information
I would suggest looking at some professional hypnosis courses for more information and the link at the top/right of the screen is the best one that I can find so definitely have a look start learning more today.
