Hypnosis: Psychological tricks in life

Chapter 13 Learning Hypnotism Easily (13)
Another very effective way to implement hypnotism for the hypnotized subject who is psychologically resistant is to use the reverse aggressive suggestion method.The reverse aggressive suggestion method can be illustrated with a story.King Qi deliberately made things difficult for Sun Bin and said, "Do you have the ability to make me come down from this high platform?" Sun Bin replied, "I can't let Your Majesty come down, but if Your Majesty comes down, I have a way to let Your Majesty go up." Qi Wang was very curious , so he went down the steps.At this time, Sun Bin said: "Look, Your Majesty, haven't you come down?" This is the reverse aggressive method.In the implementation of hypnotism, for those very stubborn and antisocial personality, the general positive hypnotic induction method is often completely ineffective. Only by reverse stimulating suggestion can they be induced into a hypnotic state.But also be careful, this kind of people are often very suspicious, so as not to be seen through the mystery.

Following the idea of ​​this reverse thinking, the hypnotist repeatedly says something completely opposite to the intention of hypnosis, which will gradually have a reverse stimulating effect on the hypnotized person. As with other hypnotized subjects, slowly enter the hypnotic state.

How to hypnotize someone with inattention.

The first requirement of hypnosis for the hypnotized person is to make him able to concentrate.Only when the hypnotized person has concentrated attention can the hypnotist induce him to enter a hypnotic state.It is difficult for some hypnotists to enter the hypnotic state because they have too many distracting thoughts and it is difficult to concentrate.For these hypnotized subjects who have distracting thoughts, getting rid of distracting thoughts becomes the primary task and the most basic guarantee.

There are two ways to remove distracting thoughts, one is to allow the hypnotized person to achieve peace of mind through deep breathing, and the other is to eliminate distracting thoughts in the mind through the exhaustion of external actions.Let's talk about it one by one.

1. Take a deep breath.

First let the hypnotized person stand upright, and the hypnotist then begins to issue instructions:
"Now, please stretch your body and find the most comfortable position...OK, relax, relax your whole body, and then take a few deep breaths...inhale slowly...then, exhale slowly... ...exhale...inhale...in breathing, you will feel your heart begin to gradually calm...yes, you will feel your heart gradually begin to calm...yes, you have now begun to slowly close Eyes closed... when you close your eyes you are more relaxed and your mind is more peaceful...yes... when you close your eyes you are more relaxed and your mind is more peaceful... ...yes, that's it...enjoy the peace of this moment...

"Yeah, that's it, that's it... you're more relaxed now, you're more at peace... well, in this moment, you're giving your heart to yourself... good... that's it …let the thoughts flow freely through your mind…continue to breathe in slowly…exhale slowly…yes, breathe in slowly…exhale slowly…let the thoughts wander freely Pass……

"Okay, very good... With slow breathing, your mood is gradually calming... In slow breathing, gradually calming... Gradually calming... Now please breathe at the speed you like... Freely Breathe in...inhale...exhale...as you breathe in, feel your limbs feel heavy...warm...relaxed...yes, you feel very light and happy right now...your mood is like that Calm... in slow breaths, enjoy this moment of peace..."

At this time, the hypnotist should check whether the hypnotized person is really in a very calm state. If so, then the next step of treatment should be carried out immediately. You should take up your own responsibilities, and patiently continue to take deep breaths to help the hypnotized person eliminate all distracting thoughts and achieve inner peace.

2. Fatigue from external movements.

Still asking the subject to stand upright, the hypnotist began to issue instructions: "Raise your hands forward, clasp your palms, and swing to the right 20 times, first from slow to fast, and then from fast to slow. When When you swing quickly, you can see incredible spectacle.” The hypnotized person acts according to the instructions of the hypnotist, and after swinging more than 10 times, the body will not stand still, and at the same time, all distracting thoughts in the mind will disappear Exhausted.When the hypnotized person is about to fall due to unstable standing, the hypnotist should immediately step forward to help the hypnotized person, and help the hypnotized person to lie on the bed or sit in a chair.At this moment, the formal hypnotic suggestion begins: "Your various distracting thoughts have completely disappeared. Now, your mood is very calm. Please close your eyes, listen to my instructions wholeheartedly, and do what I say."

At this time, the hypnotist can secretly check the eye movement of the hypnotized person. If the eye movement state of the hypnotized person has basically stopped and the eyelids no longer blink, it proves that the hypnotized person's distracting thoughts have disappeared.Then you can suggest: "The blood in your chest starts to flow down, and the forehead feels very cool, please experience this feeling! Please experience the comfortable feeling after the cooling of the forehead...Your eyelids can no longer be opened... ...The arm is also very heavy, I don't want to lift it, and I can't lift it up..."

Because of the smooth elimination of distracting thoughts, the effect of suggestion will be multiplied. The hypnotized person who originally has distracting thoughts and is difficult to enter the hypnotic state will be induced into a deeper hypnotic state step by step, just like everyone else.

Use role models to make it easier to hypnotize.

Everyone has heard such a saying, that is, the power of role models is infinite, whether in study or work, if you can set a good example, then your study and work efficiency will often be higher.In fact, in a certain sense, hypnotism is also a kind of learning, and the existence of role models will make learning hypnosis easier.This is indeed the case, a role model can make the hypnotist better implement hypnosis, and it can also make it easier for the hypnotized person to enter the hypnotic state.

Whether it is for people who are hypnotized for the first time, or those who have received hypnosis but do not want to continue to receive hypnosis treatment for various reasons, if they are allowed to watch the hypnotist successfully hypnotize other people, they will accept it after observation. Going to hypnosis will definitely be easier.In hypnosis, this situation is called a "model".So what is the power of role models?How much influence can a role model have on a hypnotized person?Is it really infinite?
In fact, in the hypnosis method for skeptics we have already talked about, we mentioned that if you want to hypnotize those who are skeptical of hypnosis - before formally hypnotizing these skeptics, you can find a hypnotist in advance. It is relatively high and has received hypnosis many times at the same time. The hypnotized person who knows enough about hypnosis performs hypnotism in front of the doubter, and let the hypnotized person talk to the doubter about the feeling of accepting hypnosis, so that they can partially Allay the concerns of skeptics.Then, formal hypnotic suggestions can be implemented.Below, we still use a specific example to illustrate:
A hypnotist needed to perform hypnotherapy on a retired worker who was already in his sixties.Because the worker was too old, the hypnotist judged that he might be a person with low hypnotic sensitivity, so the hypnotist first hypnotized a person who had been hypnotized before in front of the worker, that is, using The power of example.At this time, the hypnotist gave the role model hints like this: "very tired", "very tired", "very heavy", "can't stand up", "can't open my eyes", "can't walk" etc.Afterwards, the hypnotist successfully introduced this example into a hypnotic state. Finally, when the hypnotist lifted the hypnotic hint to this example, he added a hint of forgetfulness: "After opening your eyes, you can't count to 6... You will no longer know the number 6...the number 6 will no longer exist in your world." After the model opened his eyes, the hypnotist continued to give him instructions: "Please count from 1 to 1 .” Surprisingly, the role model counted out the number 6.The hypnotist's last suggestion just now didn't work!However, this experienced hypnotist was not in a hurry or felt any discouragement, because he understood that even so, the successful hypnotic example just now could still play a very good role, so he continued to work on the worker. induced.

As a result, workers were easily and successfully hypnotized.The hypnotist also gave him a post-hypnotic suggestion: "When you open your eyes, you will forget your name." Then, the hypnotist asked his name, and his first reaction was: "Name?" The hypnotist It did hypnotize him very successfully.Now that the cue of forgetfulness worked for him, could the cue to model failure of "You can't count to 6" work for him as well?The hypnotist then gave the same suggestion to the worker and the model.As a result, the workers also counted out the number 6.This really has to make people marvel at the power generated by role models.

So, what kind of person can be a hypnotic role model?In fact, as we have mentioned above, the hypnotist can first choose a hypnotist who has a relatively high hypnotic sensitivity and has received hypnotism many times.So how do you identify good role models in that large group?In fact, there is one of the most simple and tried-and-tested methods, you see now, those who just whisper in the hypnosis room should never be role models, and the most serious and focused person in this group , is the most suitable example.

Faith, a hypnotic method with twice the result with half the effort.

In the eyes of psychologists and our hypnotists, belief, especially religious belief, is in a sense nothing but a disguised mode of hypnosis.Moreover, using beliefs for hypnosis can often achieve twice the result with half the effort.Naturally, the basic condition for the implementation of this method is that the hypnotized person has a certain belief.The deeper the degree of belief of the hypnotized person, the better the hypnotic effect will be.

So, how should faith be used to implement our hypnotherapy?The specific implementation method can be referred to as follows:
For example, if the hypnotized person is a person who believes in XX religion, then the hypnotist can say to him: "It is really good to believe in XX religion. I have the same belief as you, and I believe in XX." , First of all, what social psychologists point out is the necessary condition for a good interpersonal relationship - the "insider effect", thus obtaining a high degree of psychological compatibility between the two parties.Practice has proved that in a state of high psychological compatibility, even if it is logically unacceptable, due to the dominance of emotional factors, people will psychologically accept, tolerate and finally agree.Then, the hypnotist can say: "The principle of hypnotism is also derived from the teachings of XX. Haven't you heard the story that XX did not use drugs to cure diseases and eliminate disasters? This is the same as the principle of hypnotism. It matches. You should believe in hypnosis like you believe in XX. As long as I operate on you, you will immediately enter a hypnotic state. You will experience a relaxed and comfortable feeling that you have never had before, just like XX The gift is the same as when it was given to you. You must keep this belief in your heart, and don’t have any doubts. Now, you close your eyes and think about XX, XX is saving you now, and heals you through me. Okay, now I will treat you Hypnotized."

On the basis of such success, it is possible to carry out relaxation suggestions, password hypnosis or verbal hypnosis.The method is free and changeable. In short, with the premise of faith, no matter which kind of suggestion you implement, it will be easier to achieve good results.

In fact, to get to the bottom of the mystery here, this method is to use the mentality of the hypnotized person to believe in a certain religion, so that he will give up his suspicion of hypnotism and be willing to accept and believe in it.And the attention of the hypnotized person will also be very concentrated, not to mention that the hypnotic sensitivity of such a hypnotized person is often extremely high, and it can be said that the favorite person enters the hypnotic state the fastest.Of course, when implementing this method, the hypnotist must be very particular about speech, posture, expression, and action. If the hypnotist sees a flaw or becomes suspicious, it may be self-defeating and get the opposite result.
