Are You Using The 3 Pillars Of Influence In Your Hypnosis Practice

Do you wish you were more influential? 

Be honest with yourself!

Almost EVERYBODY wishes they were more influential.

And they’re frustrated that they aren’t.

So how do we change that? It’s simple.

You must first understand the three pillars of influence – so you can make them stronger.

PILLAR #1: Who You Are 

Who are you really?

Do you really care about other people? And do you really have their best interests in mind?

Who you are affects your influence. 

Some people naturally have more influence because of their confidence, their posture, their genuine interest in (and affection for) other people.

Influence starts with you – your core personality.

PILLAR #2: What You Do 

The second pillar is what you do.

Example: If you are fit and healthy, you will naturally have influence in the areas of diet and exercise.

People will listen to what you have to say about fitness and healthy eating.

Another way of saying this is that you will naturally have influence in any area that you have direct  knowledge or experience. 

If you want to be influential about a certain topic, go get knowledge  and experience.

This will instantly make you more influential.

PILLAR #3: What You Say 

Last but not least, what you say has an enormous impact on  your influence.

The specific words you choose, your tone, your body language – all of these factor into your influence.

This can be plainly seen if you’ve ever tried influencing a child.

If you yell, “Go make your bed!” or “Why haven’t you made your bed yet?” your child will probably ignore you or resist you.

But if you get down on your child’s level and say, “You are such a good kid, and I appreciate so much when you help out. And right now it would really help me if you made your bed. Would you do that for me?”

Can you feel the difference?

And can you see how you might get better results with the latter approach?

(Of course you could use some heavy duty conversational hypnosis instead, but there’s no need to crack a nut with a sledgehammer)

Now, of all these pillars of influence, the third one is probably the easiest to change. 

Integrating new hypnotic language patterns into your daily conversations can raise your influence by multiple factors. 

In fact… Why not work on that right now?

Tongue Suggestibility And The Power Of Hypnosis

True story:

A writer for a popular fitness magazine once wrote a facetious article about a “miracle supplement.”

At the bottom of the page on which the article appeared, he had the magazine’s art department create a perforated square roughly the size of a postage stamp, next to which appeared the following recommendation:

“For optimal muscle gains, cut out this little piece of paper and place it in a glass of water overnight.

“It contains a special mix of amino acids that are released in water over several hours.

“In the morning, remove the paper and place it on your tongue to allow the amino acids to enter your body.”

The writer intended it as a joke as a last minute whimsy to fill a page where an advertisement had been withdrawn at the last moment.

However, it seems there was a breakdown in communication somewhere because the publication printed it anyway.

And here’s the really interesting bit:

Within days of the fitness magazine hitting the stands the publisher was inundated with requests from readers for more of that awesome paper.”

Many readers actually believed that placing that piece of paper on their tongues as instructed had made their muscles bigger and stronger.

Seriously!

Anyway, the point?

It’s this:

Everyone in this world is suggestible to some degree or other.

And that is WHY you have great power as a hypnotist.

Now let me make one thing clear:

I’m not in any way advocating taking advantage of others with your hypnosis skills.

Not at all.

What I am saying is you can use hypnosis to leverage people’s suggestibility to make them feel better about themselves, make them believe in themselves more and enable them to take life-enhancing actions they’ve never been able to consistently take before.

That is the power you have with hypnosis.

Hypnosis can be used to leverage someone’s suggestibility to make them feel better about themselves and enable them to take life-enhancing actions.

So use it.

But please use it wisely! (Read on to find the real definition of hypnosis and the basics of the process)

Interview With A Hypnotist: Meet Dr. Sara Pugh, The “Bio-Hacking” Neurological Therapist

Ever notice how much pressure there is nowadays to always doing more?

To be more?

But the fact is, there are only 24 hours in the day, and when you’re busy with work, kids and other responsibilities – there’s often not enough time to do all the things you’d like.

That said, ever wondered why there are some people who manage to run multiple companies, have a family and even exercise and meditate every day?

It’s easy to just shrug them off as being “ Type- A overachievers,” but there’s often more going on that just raw ambition and drive. The thing that often sets them apart is their ability to put themselves into a top mindset for success.

To dive deeper into this topic, we recently interviewed Dr. Sara Pugh, the founder and creator of The Busy Superhuman – a company that teaches people how to optimize their brains and nervous systems to enhance performance.

What’s fascinating about her approach is that Sara combines her scientific background (she has a Doctorate in Molecular Mechanisms and Biophysics, in addition to degrees in Bioinformatics, Biochemistry and Genetics), with her hypnosis and NLP skills.

As a result of this powerful mix, she’s able to “bio-hack” people’s brains so they can achieve peak performance.

How Hypnosis Is Used For Anxiety And Depression: An Important Guide For Hypnotists PLUS 3 Scientific Studies That Explain Why it Works

"How can hypnosis help with anxiety and depression?"

This is a common (and fantastic) question.

Which is why we've done our best to explain the answer as clearly as possible so you're able to do the same with your hypnosis subjects.

Reason being, while a lot of hypnotists know that hypnosis can help with anxiety and depression, they might not always be able to clearly articulate the ins and outs of how hypnosis helps treat mental illnesses such as anxiety and depression.

So this article will equip you with the knowledge to do just that.

How Is Hypnosis Used For Anxiety And Depression And What Does It Have That Most Modern-Day Therapies Lack?

There is one key difference between hypnosis and most modern-day therapies that don't stack up.

Any idea what this is? We'll reveal what it is in a minute.

But first, it's important to explain how hypnosis gives you direct access to the playground of your mind - the unconscious.

This is where your "true identity" lies. Everything and anything that makes up who you are resides in your unconscious.

So the way hypnosis helps you access your mental "playground" is the way it engages your conscious mind.

Or otherwise put, imagine that there was a gatekeeper that kept you from peeking into your unconscious mind's files and databases making sure you didn't meddle too much.

Well hypnosis engages and schmoozes this gatekeeper. And once the gatekeeper is occupied, a hypnotist is able to really examine the underpinnings of your unconscious.

So hypnosis and trance simply open up the doorway. They allow you to fully imagine (often in vivid technicolor detail) how much better life can be. What it would be like to take on completely new behaviors, beliefs and identities.

Given this, the one thing hypnosis has that most modern day therapies lack is the ability to quiet your negative internal conversations.

Have you ever wondered about some positive change you'd like to make, only to have that rational mind of yours pop up and tell you why you can't have it?

That's the negative internal dialogue that most therapies can't seem to sneak around. Hypnosis does an incredible job of sidestepping this.

Another thing that sets hypnosis apart is the ability to restructure cognitive distortions.

Hypnosis allows for the accessing and restructuring (changing the pattern) of conscious, automatic and unconscious cognitive distortions and negative self-schema.

(Psst! In case, you're wondering what the last term refers to - self-schema - it's your long-lasting and stable set of memories that summarizes your beliefs, experiences and generalizations about yourself in specific behavioral domains).

And it just so happens that hypnosis is naturally adept at altering the self-schema.

Your job as the hypnotist is to identify the thought patterns that have been causing your clients harm and then help them re-write these mental stories.

So now that you know more about how hypnosis is used for anxiety and depression, let's take a closer look at the mental health epidemic sweeping across the U.S. (and much of the globe).

Research has shown that hypnosis is highly-effective at dealing with anxiety and depression, and what’s more, is that positive results can often be seen in a fraction of the time.

The other benefit with hypnosis is that it’s 100% natural and drug-free – which is also good news given how quick doctors can be to prescribe medication.

Curious to discover more about how hypnosis can be used as a powerful ally in the emotional struggles that haunt depression and anxiety sufferers?

Check out this article to discover why hypnosis works, the techniques you can use to treat it, in addition to 3 scientific studies that back its effectiveness up.

But first, you might be wondering…

“What Type Of Hypnosis Training Should I Do?”

To answer this question, you first need to identify why you want to use hypnosis.

If you want to become a professional hypnotherapist to help people overcome problems such as fears, phobias and mental illnesses, it’s recommended that you use a variety of training methods, such as: online hypnosis training programs, attend live training seminars, get your hypnotherapy certification, and if you want to really master hypnosis, that you get your hypnotherapy diploma.

But if you just want to learn hypnosis to improve the way you communicate, or to become more influential in your everyday life, there are a host of online training programs that will certainly help you reach your goal (some of which are listed in this article). You can also join local hypnosis Meetup groups, or attend a live hypnosis training seminar to further help hone your skills.

Now let’s take a look at each of these training methods below…

PART 1: Beginner’s Guide To Hypnosis Training

Let us be the first to congratulate you on embarking on this meaningful and worthwhile journey.

As you’re probably already aware, hypnosis is a powerful change work tool that can be used to not only positively transform your own life – but the lives of your family, friends, community and, well, the world.

Yes, really – the world. We’re not exaggerating here – we believe it to be true.
And if you too have even an inkling that this is possible – and you share this positive intention – then we’ve got good news for you.

Because you’re about to learn how you can become the kind of hypnotist who’s able to spark powerful and lasting transformations in others.
And because you’re about to get your feet wet, we thought it would be a good opportunity to briefly share the backstory of the founder of the Hypnosis Training Academy, Igor Ledochowski.

You see, Igor wasn’t always a master hypnotist. In fact, he used to be a lawyer.

So his road to mastery hasn’t always been plain sailing. He’s come across many obstacles in his path to mastery.

But the best part about this?

Since starting the Hypnosis Training Academy, Igor’s mission has been to openly share what’s worked for him (and what hasn’t).

So whether you want to learn ethical conversational hypnosis, hypnotherapy, or self-hypnosis… or you just want to learn some basic hypnosis techniques and have fun – we’ve got your back.

What Hypnosis Feels Like: How To Explain The Somewhat Unexplainable & 3 Powerful Hypnosis Stories

“What does hypnosis feel like?”

That’s a question hypnotists and hypnotherapists get asked a lot. And naturally, as a hypnotist, you want to give a good answer.

You want to be able to explain the feeling so that it helps them understand it better. You want to provide a reasonable answer that doesn’t just fob them off. Especially because some of the people who ask the question could someday become your subjects.

So what can you tell them?

The truth is that it’s not an easy question to answer for 3 very good reasons:

1. The experience of hypnosis is different for everyone
2. For some people, hypnosis might feel different every time
3. It isn’t a “one-size-fits-all” type of experience

Hmmm. Those 3 points could leave you scratching your head. If it’s different for everyone, how can you possibly tell someone what hypnosis feels like?
The answer is clear: You tell them what it MIGHT feel like. What they might experience. What happens to most people.

Useful Tip: When asked to explain what hypnosis feels like, reel off the 3 points above. Give examples of experiences reported by other people, such as your own subjects or your friends or relatives who’ve undergone hypnosis.

Then, if during hypnosis they don’t experience something, or if their experience is slightly different, at least you’ve prepared them for that eventuality in advance.

Interview With A Hypnotist: HypnoThoughts Founder Scott Sandland Shares How To Set Up A Practice For Pain Control, Addiction & Dental Hypnosis

How do you know if a hypnotherapy niche is right for you?

Other than actually giving it a try, the most practical alternative is to talk with someone who works in the field.

This way, you get real-world insight to help you determine whether the niche is a good fit and advice on what it will take to succeed.

Which is why given the rising interest in hypnosis for medical and dental applications, this month’s interview features master hypnotist – Scott Sandland.

You may already be familiar with Scott Sandland as the creator of the largest free hypnosis social network, HypnoThoughts.

But perhaps what you didn’t know is that Scott is an expert in pain reduction, addiction treatment and dental applications of hypnosis.

In fact, Scott’s success has already led him to become the youngest member of the board of directors for the International Medical and Dental Hypnotherapy Association.

In this month’s interview with Igor Ledochowski, Scott shares the unbelievable story of how he discovered hypnosis.

Scott also dives into what you can achieve through dental hypnosis, what hypnosis can offer to people struggling with addiction and why this niche is not for everyone. He also shares plenty of advice on how to help you get started in this field of hypnotherapy.

Hypnosis: What To Expect? The 8-Step Guide On How To Advise First-Time Subjects [Includes Infographic]

Imagine this scenario...

You're at a party or an event and word gets out that you're a hypnotist.

Suddenly everybody's curious and before you can say, "You're getting sleepy," there's a crowd gathering.

But you soon find out that it's not just idle curiosity. Far from it. Because most people have no idea what hypnosis is or how it works.

So they do what seems logical in this type of situation: They ask lots of questions.

Questions like...

• What's hypnosis like?
• Can anyone be hypnotized?
• What does it feel like to be hypnotized?
• Exactly what happens during a hypnosis session?

Now, you can't just fob them off. As tedious as it might be to answer these kinds of questions over and over again, it's something you should be willing to do.

After all, you can't be a hypnotist without having subjects to hypnotize. So rather than thinking of it as a chore, think of it as a quick and painless recruitment tool.

Also, remember that for many people...

Their first hypnosis session will be a journey into the unknown.

They'll have no idea what to expect.

Whatever you tell them could be crucial in planting the seeds that will help them decide whether or not to give hypnosis a shot.

So what kinds of things should you say?

Obviously, it makes sense to have some kind of response prepared and memorized that you can reel off so you're not caught off guard.

This might also save you the hassle of having to answer any "hypnosis and chicken" related questions… we hope.

But as mentioned above, this is all part and parcel of being a good hypnotist.

It's your role to help people bypass the limitations surrounding their conscious mind's wall so they can access infinite possibilities.

What Hypnosis Is Not - And What Can Stop It From Working

Hypnosis has a long history of being poorly understood. Whether that's down to a certain amount of quackery or to its portrayal in cinema and the media, it doesn't really matter.

As the hypnotist, your role is to make sure that your potential subjects/clients are not confused by the misinformation.

You can do that by quickly clearing up a few of the more common myths surrounding hypnosis. Read More »

What Is Consciousness? 8 Mind-Blowing Videos That Help Explain The Relatively Unexplainable

Can you hold consciousness in your hand? Or point to it?

No. But that’s a puzzle in itself. After all, how can something that we all experience be so hard to grasp? So difficult to explain? So mysterious that it resists all attempts to define it, to calculate it, and to measure it?

We know that consciousness is a thing. But what else do we know?

Before we try and answer that in full, one thing that we can’t dispute is its infinite power when it comes to change work.

And that how as a hypnotherapist or hypnotist, your understanding of this power underpins everything you do – as you’re constantly working with people who are in various states of consciousness.

So, What Is Consciousness Then?

Rene Descartes famously wrote, “I think, therefore I am.”

That’s possibly the shortest and most succinct definition for consciousness you’re ever likely to find. But it might surprise you to know that it wasn’t even his idea.

Descartes’ phrase appeared in his 1637 work entitled Discourse on the Method. However, Aristotle said pretty much the same thing almost 2000 years earlier, sometime between 384 – 322 BC:

Whoever said it first, the problem still remains.

It tells us what it is, but not how or why it occurs. We can’t isolate a part of the brain and say that’s where consciousness comes from.

According to Wikipedia, consciousness is:

“The state or quality of awareness… being aware of an external object or something within oneself.”

Stuart Sutherland’s entry for the word “consciousness” in the Macmillan Dictionary of Psychology concludes with the phrase:

“… to be conscious it is only necessary to be aware of the external world.”

That’s a pretty basic and straightforward description. And yet, it isn’t enough to satisfy everyone. Many people think the question “what is consciousness?” is unsolvable. There are two reasons why they think that way, which are:

1. Because we might not have enough brainpower to figure it out
2. Because we’re part of the consciousness we’re trying to define and are unable to maintain an objective perspective on the issue

Interview With A Hypnotist: Dr. Ed Tori’s 6 Keys To Greater Influence & How To Inspire Healthy Behavior

With great influence comes great responsibility.

And when it comes to influence in hypnosis, two of the most important rapport building tools are conversational hypnosis and hypnotic language patterns.

They allow you, as the hypnotist, to quickly gain your subject’s trust so you’re able to help them overcome any issues and lead more positive lives.

Therefore, given the power of conversational hypnosis and influence, it’s understandable why this month’s master hypnotist - Dr. Ed Tori – was curious to see how these hypnosis tools could be used in a medical setting.

This curiosity, in addition to his strong belief in hypnosis, are the reasons he founded the Influence Center, a facility within his healthcare institution designed to help medical professionals harness the power of conversational hypnosis, influence and persuasion so they can help patients and colleagues.

In this month’s engaging interview with Igor Ledochowski, Dr. Tori shares this journey and reveals the 6 essential rules for anyone who wants to be more influential, in addition to why rapport is a secret tool for increasing healthy behaviors.

He also explains how to make your time more constructive with mind mapping and the secret to keeping your energy levels up so you can pick up new skills no matter how busy you are.

Hypnosis: Who Is Susceptible? How To Quickly Spot Highly-Hypnotizable People & The 5 Most Common Reasons Hypnosis Fails

"You do something to me
Something that simply mystifies me
Tell me, why should it be
You have the power to hypnotize me?"

When Cole Porter wrote those lyrics, he probably wasn’t thinking about hypnosis in the therapeutic sense of the word.
And yet it throws up an interesting question:

How many people can – or how many people can’t – be hypnotized?

David Spiegel MD, professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Stanford University has been quoted as estimating that about 25% of people cannot be hypnotized.

So while the exact number can’t truly be known, various percentages are frequently bandied about.

To test this hypothesis out, Spiegel and his team used MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scans to try and figure out why some people were more susceptible than others.

They discovered that people who were more likely to be hypnotized show more activity in areas of the brain concerned with executive control and attention.

People who are easily hypnotized tend to lose track of time and get lost in a book or movie.

Speaking to the Los Angeles Times, Dr. Spiegel said that highly hypnotizable people:

"Can readily immerse themselves in thinking about things without having their attention interrupted by pesky reminders of reality."

It’s thought that roughly between 5-10% of people are highly susceptible to hypnotic suggestion, while up to 79% of the population are considered moderately susceptible.

Okay, so what do those numbers tell you?

They tell you that you’ve got a good chance of hypnotizing most of the people you meet.

That’s fantastic news, right?

But what they don’t tell you, though, is who those people are and how to spot them.

That’s where street hypnotists may have the upper hand. To weave their magic, they have to act fast.

They might only have seconds to make an impression. They need to be able to spot who’ll make a good subject and who won’t before the person walks on by or loses interest.

So you might be wondering, how do they do this... Keep Reading

Want To Become A Great Conversational Hypnotist? Here’s Why You Should Play The Role Of Merlin… Not King Arthur

 

 According to Arthurian legend, Merlin was the wise wizard that engineered the birth of Arthur through magic and intrigue.

Once born, Merlin carefully coached and prepared Arthur to take center stage and become the legendary figure that he did.

But without Merlin’s wise teachings and magic – Arthur never would have existed – let alone become king.

What’s this got to do with conversational hypnosis, you might be thinking?

Well, everything.

Because if you want to become a great conversational hypnotist, you need to play the role of Merlin… not Arthur.

Your job is to transform your subjects into becoming the heroes of their own stories… which can only be done if you empower them to take center stage.

Watch the video above to hear Igor explain more on this.

Interview With A Hypnotist: Laz Dorgham Reveals How To Use Hypnosis In Stressful Corporate Situations To Build Rapport & Influence Change At The Top

When you’re working with a client during a hypnosis session, one of the first things you do as a hypnotist is build rapport.

This helps put the client at ease and build trust - which is essential if you’re about to embark on a journey where they need to be vulnerable, open to change and receptive to your suggestions.

This is especially true when working in a controlled environment, such as your hypnosis practice, where you’re working one-on-one and they have specifically come to you for hypnosis.

But what if you’re not in a clinical environment?

How can you effectively use hypnosis - or teach stressed-out execs to ethically use it in highly stressful corporate situations when working with multiple people and trying to influence change where it matters the most... right at the top?

This is exactly what this month’s master hypnotist - Laz Dorgham - was curious to discover after climbing the corporate ladder and realising he could use hypnosis to assist executives.
