Learn How To Hypnotize Yourself - Easily And Quickly
The best way to learn how to hypnotize is to start doing it.
Don't worry about whether your "getting it right" or being perfect the first
time. No-one does this, so don't impose this kind of impossible expectation on yourself.
Instead, approach hypnosis with a sense of fun and adventure.
Many people start out their hypnosis adventure by practicing on themselves. They
find it easier and less embarrassing than trying to hypnotize a friend or (scarier
still) a stranger in the street. Others find that attending a day or a weekend workshop
is the best way for them. Or downloading a free course in hypnotism from the internet.
Any of these ways are good. So is a mixture of them. Choose what you think will
work best for you and if you get stuck, add in another method.
At its most basic, hypnosis is just a controlled day dream.
Most people find the easiest way to hypnotize themselves is to use a pre-recorded
MP3 track. You can buy these cheaply on the web or you can make your own.
Let's have a look at making your own recording.
The hypnotic track has three distinct parts:
1. Hypnosis induction
This is the part where you relax. Your breaths get longer and deeper. You allow
yourself to close your eyes. If you were in a movie, you'd probably be watching
a swinging pendulum or watch. If you were on stage, the stage hypnotist would simply
click their fingers and say "sleep". You can find hypnosis induction scripts on
lots of sites, including the
hypnosis
induction script video on this page. The induction will usually last between
2 and 5 minutes. As you get used to doing this, you'll find that you can record
a shorter induction and still go into a deep trance state.
2. Main hypnosis session
This is the "meat" of the session. Especially whilst you're learning, you'd be
best advised to use a script written by someone else. This is because whilst your
conscious mind usually knows when you mean, your subconscious mind needs completely
precise, unambiguous instructions. Otherwise it makes its best guess at what you
meant and does that. If you do decide to write your own scripts, triple check them
for any kind of ambiguity. There are very specialist scripts available on the internet
for little money - covering everything from relaxation through to fear of needles
and giving up an addiction to chocolate plus much more. Or you can treat yourself
to a book like "How to Hypnotize Yourself Without Losing Your Mind", which is a
great introduction to the subject.
3. Return to the real world
This is usually shorter than the induction and typically involves counting you
out of the trance. Which way you count - upwards from 1 to 10 or downwards from
10 to 1 - and whether you use 5 or 10 as the number doesn't matter too much. Give
yourself the command to come out of trance and when you're getting close to the
final number, tell yourself to soon open your eyes and awake feeling refreshed and
alert.
