Welcome to the Persuasion Hypnosis blog where you can find all the answers to your hypnosis questions about how to hypnotize someone. I have worked quite hard to provide this free resource and all the information you find inside has come from this online course so feel welcome to check it out.

Learning Hypnotic Persuasion

If you want to learn how to persuade others to do what you want then it is important to understand how the human mind works or the principles of our NLP (neuro-linguistic programming). This is basically how our mind reacts to certain situations and phrases (green light means go and red means stop) and how we can use this to our advantage. I will show you now the basic steps to follow when using hypnosis in a conversation to persuade someone to do what you want. (This is based on Igor ledochowski's theories on conversational hypnosis)



1st step -Learn about your subject
This comes down to asking some open ended questions which are used to get your subject talking about themselves so you can find out more about them such as their likes, dislikes, significant events in their life and most importantly their "dreams" and aspirations. I like to use questions such as "where is your favorite holiday place?", "why is that?", "would that be your retirement location?", "what do you love to do?". As you can see I have created a little story where they open up about all of the issues I previously spoke about.

2nd step - Rapport and connection
This is the part where you create a connection between yourself and your subject by talking a little more about their dreams and aspirations and relate them to yourself in a positive light. This puts their mind at ease, they will drop their guard and start to actually listen to what you are saying simply because you are confirming that you are supporting what matters most to them (their dreams). A recent example of mine was when someone said their dream was to live in Bali and I responded by saying, "I was recently there and I have to tell you that I was getting very tempted to find a way to stay there".

3rd step - Control the conversation and implement suggestion
Now it is time to take control and start to put your suggestions into the conversation. It's all about using positive phrases and words to make them find a solution themselves (with your help). A good example is when they say, "Bali is just a dream and it will probably never happen." My response would be, "you are probably right but didn't you mention earlier it would only cost $X to settle over there." They agree to this and then I lead the conversation and say, "geez property prices are going up in this suburb, if you bought and renovated you could be there in just over a year... I wish I had your opportunity hey." I have put my subject in a position of power where he has the ability to achieve his dream and I do not, this will always trigger them to think about this suggestion and create an image of it becoming a reality because it leads to their dream.

4th step - Close
This is the final step where you confirm once again that the suggestion you implemented is in fact originally their idea and that you will do everything in your power to help them. This leaves them on a high and at the same time in a positive and motivated frame of mind to achieve their goal.

Hypnotic Persuasion

If you want to be able to persuade people to do what you want and predict their reactions before they do then persuasion using hypnosis is what you need.

Hypnotic persuasion is a method that uses confusion techniques to manipulate people to think how you want them to. Generally the majority of people have the same thinking and reaction patterns which makes it easy to persuade nearly anybody by using hypnotic techniques.


Some basic conversational hypnosis techniques
Hypnosis is about understanding our thinking patterns (neuro-linguistic programming) so that we can use common triggers to change our perception.

A good example of a common thinking pattern is that red triggers our reaction to stop and green accordingly to go.


Hypnotic inductions are a common way to prepare someone to be hypnotised. This involves putting someone into a relaxed state where their mind is more open to suggestion. You can probably relate to this when you are lying on the beach with your partner and soaking in some sun. Your partner mentions spending a lot of money, you do not really have, on fine dining that night. Generally you would oppose this suggestion but you are feeling great and relaxed and agree it would be a good idea.
A common induction technique is to have someone sitting down and reminding them of a time in their life that gave them joy. Push this experience until you get a reaction out of them that is a smile and how it brings back great memories. You have put them into a relaxed state and now it is time to put in some suggestions.


Suggestion and Misdirection - Ok so you have your “subject” in a relaxed state and they are open to suggestion. You do not want to just say what you want them to do but to lead the conversation in a direction towards your suggestion.

Example: Your children sound amazing and it’s so important to plan their future isn’t it… If only my parents had got some professional advise to plan my future it would have made such a difference. I heard of this great financial planner who I will definitely recommend to you because he is the best. I will check if he is available in the next week but it is going to be tough, but for you I will make the effort.

As you can see the positive was used to misdirect and lead into the suggestion and a story was created with a positive solution for the “subject”.


Learning these persuasion techniques
So if you want to learn how to persuade pretty much anyone you want then you should definitely check out the “power of persuasion” or the “power of conversational hypnosis” (link at top/right of screen).

Conversational Hypnosis

This is a form of hypnosis that is designed to allow you to persuade someone in one sitting and without their knowledge.

Background
This unorthodox form of hypnosis was originally created by therapist Milton Erickson who dealt with war veterans post WWII and post traumatic stress. He did not believe in using hypnotic inductions but instead used confusion techniques, analogies and forced his subjects to question themselves. This has been passed on by present day hypnotherapist Igor Ledochowski who is now the authority on conversational hypnosis.


How does it work?
The way it works is that you can meet a complete stranger and in one conversation convince them to do what you want with out them realising. This persuasion technique can be used in a sales pitch, picking up someone in a bar/club, convincing anyone to do anything really. It’s all about using a person’s thinking processes against them which forces them to question their decisions and in this way you can use your own suggestions to persuade them. (Ok so what the heck does that mean? I will give an example below to make it easier to understand.)


Conversational hypnosis example - convincing someone to go on a holiday
So the beginning is hearing about the persons problems as to why they can not go on a holiday such as: to busy, not enough money, wrong time of year, do it another time if they will ever get the time off.
So now you have to make this person questions themselves so what you do next is confirm their negative reasons to a degree where it is ridiculous and there is no hope. As human beings we like to complain but we never want to confirm that our ’wants’ will never happen so this will force the person to question themselves and try to find a solution.
They will start to figure out that they have some leave saved up and also have a little savings that they can use so it is actually quite a possibility. Then you confirm their solutions and agree that you are wrong and they are right because the next best thing that we like to hear as humans is how great we are, this technique never gets old.
So now that you have confirmed their great idea and they are feeling good about how clever they are they will go through with it because they do not want to look stupid.


What is a good learning resource?
The person you want to learn from is Igor Ledochowski because he is the world authority on conversational hypnosis as I mentioned earlier. He developed a course called the ‘Power of Conversational Hypnosis” that is definitely worth checking out.

Learning with Online Hypnosis

If you are interested in learning hypnosis online then you must be sure that you get the correct referral. Don’t worry look at the link to conversational hypnosis because that is the best online hypnosis course you can find... hands down!


I am guessing that you are:

• 
  looking to learn some tricks that can help in persuading other people.
• 
  You don’t have too much money in your pocket to fork out for ongoing lessons.
• 
  You want easy and immediate access to this information.

Well good work because I did the same thing and I came across the power of conversational hypnosis. It has some audio CD’s and it is a downloadable course that you can get, and more importantly it works.

Note
There are many online hypnosis courses that are crap, to put it plainly.

Beware of courses that do not give support and only give a PDF download.

If there is an option of a hypnosis club support then that is usually the best way to go.

Difference between Hypnosis and hypnotherapy

Basically hypnosis is the act of influencing someone to react to your suggestions.

Hypnotherapy is the use of hypnosis in therapy to help people overcome conditions that are related to their subconscious. E.g. smoking, obesity, procrastination, confidence etc…


Short vs. long term results

Hypnosis - this is your short term results.
Hypnosis is used to influence a subject in one sitting to do, or react, to the hypnotists suggestions. You see this with stage hypnosis where you watch a show and the poor volunteer humiliates themselves. This kind of hypnosis requires a lot of practice to learn how to hypnotically induce in a social situation.

If you are looking for more of a one on one persuasion then conversational hypnosis is the art of using no hypnotic induction at all and using analogies, double binds and confusion techniques to influence your subject.


Hypnotherapy - This is your long term.
Most professional therapists these days are studying hypnotherapy because of the results that it brings. If you are suffering from any kind of condition (smoking and obesity are the most common) then hypnotherapy is used to provide many sit down therapy sessions where your hypnotherapist can induce you without you trying to resist. It helps to open your mind and allow your therapist find deep psychological “scars”. Once these “scars” are found then the work starts to heal them and give a permanent cure to your condition.
