What is the method of hypnosis?
Probably everyone who is a beginner in hypnosis will doubt himself: Can I really hypnotize others? \x0d\ That's how I got here myself. I think hypnosis is a magical and incredible thing. I'm afraid it takes a powerful magician to do it! \x0d\ After reading all the hypnotic books, I am convinced that everyone is actually wandering between different states of consciousness every day, so all I do is to help others consciously experience what they have been experiencing every day, which makes it much easier. In addition, seeing the whole process of hypnosis by other hypnotists with my own eyes, I found that it was exactly the same as what the book said, that is, talking led people to adjust their consciousness channels to enter a hypnotic state, and I began to have confidence. \x0d\ Generally speaking, it is not difficult to learn to help others hypnotize, but if you have high self-esteem and want to be professional, my suggestions are as follows: \x0d\ First, read all relevant books and absorb the latest information. \x0d\ II. Attend professional hypnosis training courses. \x0d\ Thirdly, if hypnotized by a professional hypnotist, you can not only experience the feeling of being hypnotized, but also learn professional skills. \x0d\ Fourth, practice self-hypnosis frequently. \x0d\ Fifth, graduates from non-psychology departments or related departments should learn a lot of psychological classics and accumulate enough psychological knowledge. \x0d\ Sixthly, if your purpose is not only to become a hypnotist, but also to further become a hypnotherapist, you need to strengthen more professional background and clinical experience in psychotherapy. \x0d\ Seventh, when you start practicing hypnosis, you must find someone with high hypnosis sensitivity. Such a hypnotized person can enhance your confidence and enable you to practice various skills and see the effect immediately. If you look for someone with poor hypnotic sensitivity from the beginning, you will be frustrated in all aspects and lose interest. Not only can you not learn hypnosis, but you may also ruin your self-confidence. Last but not least, when you start practicing, you must ask the hypnotized person to cooperate with you completely. Even if you are performing, you should act realistically and pretend that you are really hypnotized, because this is the learning stage and you must do so. Of course, it is best to have qualified and experienced teachers to guide you, which can save you precious time in blind exploration. \x0d\ Here I use an actual case to demonstrate the whole process of helping others hypnotize. \x0d\ A young girl, Xiao Gan, walked into the consulting room. I asked her to sit down and let her fill in the basic information of the case, including name, address, contact information, family profile, education, work status, reasons for seeking medical treatment, hypnosis experience and so on. After \x0d\ inquiry and settlement stage \x0d\ is completed, we will enter the inquiry and settlement stage. I will talk to her for a while to understand her needs and collect more information about the problems that plague her. \x0d\ Xiao Gan is 25 years old this year. She works as an accountant in a computer hardware manufacturing company. She is very popular in the company. She has a boyfriend who has been dating for two years and has a stable relationship. Her body is very healthy. Except for the monthly menstrual pain, she is fine and has no habit of taking medicine. \x0d\ Her parents divorced early, her mother remarried when she was ten years old, and her stepfather loved her very much, and she also liked her stepfather very much. \x0d\ The reason why she came to me was that she was curious about past lives. \x0d\ Although many people come to me for past-life hypnosis, I think these people may not simply come for past-life hypnosis. Even if his psychological subjectivity is so certain, I will assume that there is a driving force in his heart that he can't perceive, which is the real reason for bringing him to the psychological counseling room. \x0d\ Xiao Gan is very interested in spiritual practice. In her conversation, she casually mentioned that she had recently participated in a spiritual practice and cried for no reason. She can't find the reason, and the activity instructor doesn't know what to do. Since that activity, she has had two experiences that the whole person was suddenly overwhelmed by negative emotions. She just feels lifeless, and it's boring to live. It's better to die. As it lasted only a few minutes, she quickly turned her attention to daily affairs, so it didn't have much impact. If I hadn't repeatedly asked her how she was feeling recently, she would have forgotten herself. \x0d\ I knew it as soon as I heard this. Xiao Gan is a typical case. She sent a distress signal internally, and then used her previous hypnosis as an excuse to buffer her anxiety and convince herself to ask for help. \x0d\ At this time, I don't say anything, so I turn my conversation to her hypnosis experience and existing knowledge. \x0d\ She has never been hypnotized, but she saw me demonstrate hypnotherapy on TV, so she came to me. \x0d\ I know that her knowledge of hypnosis is almost a blank sheet of paper, so I spent five minutes explaining the basic principles of hypnosis and letting her know what will happen after she is hypnotized. \x0d\ At this moment, she asked, "May I record? It turned out that she was afraid of forgetting what she said during hypnosis, so she brought a walkman to record. \x0d\ I told her no problem. Welcome to the recording. I also let her know that she will be awake during hypnosis, even more awake than usual, and she will not only remember the whole process, but also wake up as long as she blinks if she wants to end hypnosis at any time. \x0d\ Induction stage \x0d\ Then I helped her to do a hypnotic sensitivity test, and found that she was the one who could reach the depth of hypnosis in the fifth stage. Please refer to the next section for detailed hypnotic sensitivity test methods. \x0d\ Then I let her lie on the treatment bed, let her get used to the bed and pillow, and let her cover herself with a thin quilt. \x0d\ She said the treatment bed was comfortable to lie on, so I asked her if she was ready? She smiled and prepared to hypnotize. \x0d\ The following are my usual words of gradually relaxing and inducing hypnosis. \x0d\ I will speak calmly in a steady and low voice, and I will be in a very quiet alpha brain wave state when I speak, so hypnotizing others is also a meditation process for me. \x0d\ Now, adjust your body to the most comfortable posture. Please close your eyes. As soon as you close your eyes, you will start to relax. \x0d\ Pay attention to your feelings, let your mind scan slowly from head to toe like a scanner, and relax wherever it scans. \x0d\ From now on, you will find that your heart has become very calm, as if you have entered another wonderful world, far away from the secular world, and you will only hear my voice and the sound of background music, and other external noises will not interfere with you. Even if you hear sudden noise, you will not be disturbed, but will enter a deeper and more comfortable hypnotic state. Now, pay attention to your breathing. You have to take a deep, deep breath, take a regular deep breath, slowly suck in the air, and then slowly spit it out. \x0d\ When inhaling, imagine yourself inhaling oxygen in the air. Air enters your body from your nose, flows through your nose and throat along the trachea, then enters your lungs and then penetrates into your blood. These wonderful oxygen are delivered to every part and cell of your body through blood circulation, which makes your body full of fresh vitality. \x0d\ When you exhale, imagine that you spit out all the carbon dioxide in your body, and also send out all the fatigue, troubles and nervousness, so that all the unpleasantness and discomfort are far away from you. \x0d\ Every time you take a deep breath, you will enter a deeper, more relaxed and more comfortable state. \x0d\ Watch your breathing. When you concentrate on breathing, feel the air circulating in your body, and feel the oxygen entering every cell of your body, your body will automatically carry out the process of replenishing energy. The more you can concentrate on your breathing, the healthier and more energetic your body will be. \x0d\ From now on, keep breathing deeply. When you take a deep breath, you will listen to my guidance. Naturally, you don't have to think about anything or anything. As long as you follow my instructions, you will soon enter a very deep and comfortable hypnosis state. \x0d\ Now, pay attention to the top of your head and relax your scalp ... \ x0d \ The skull is also relaxed ... \ x0d \ Pay attention to your eyebrows and relax the muscles near your eyebrows ... \ x0d \ Relax the muscles near your ears ... \ x0d \ Relax the muscles near your cheeks ... \ x0d \ Relax the muscles near your chin. \x0d\ Relax your left hand ... \ x0d \ Relax your right hand ... \ x0d \ Pay attention to your chest, let the bones and muscles of your chest relax ... \ x0d \ Relax your back, let the muscles of your spine and back relax ... \ x0d \ Relax the muscles of your abdomen completely, effortlessly, and then relax your breathing. Keep breathing deeply. Every time you breathe, you will feel more relaxed and comfortable ... \ x0d \ At this time, I observed that the expression on Xiao Gan's face became very peaceful, her breathing became lighter, her arms, wrists and fingers were very relaxed, and I knew that she had at least entered a state of mild hypnosis. \x0d\ I asked, "Now, how do you feel physically and emotionally? "x0d" Xiao gan said slowly in a weak voice, "the body is relaxed and the mood is very comfortable. \x0d\ This is a clear sign of being hypnotized, and the voice will become smaller, as if it takes a lot of effort to speak. \x0d\ So I decided to start the deepening stage. \x0d\ If Xiao Gan has not reached a mild hypnotic state, I may guide her to relax again, or use other inducing methods to ensure that she enters a hypnotic state. \x0d\ deepening stage \x0d\ If you have a good imagination of the case, going down the stairs, taking the elevator and crossing the tunnel are all good deepening skills. If the imagination is average, you might as well use the method of lowering your arm and counting. \x0d\ From the hypnotic sensitivity test just now, I found that Xiao Gan's imagination is very rich, so I decided to use the method of descending stairs with a long history and good effect. \x0d\ Now imagine that you are standing on the stairs and ready to go downstairs. This staircase has ten steps. I will guide you step by step. Every step, you will enter a deeper hypnotic state, your body will be more relaxed and comfortable, and your heart will be more peaceful and serene. \x0d\ When you go to the basement at the bottom of the stairs, you will go into unconsciousness, remember many important memories, get a lot of help and know yourself better. \x0d\ Now go down to the first step and relax your body and mind. \x0d\ Continue to the second step, and you feel more and more quiet. \x0d\ Continue to the third step. You like the feeling of relaxation. \x0d\ Continue to step 4, breathing will be smoother, and every time you inhale, you will inhale a very comfortable feeling. \x0d\ Continue to step 5 ... You are getting deeper and deeper into the subconscious. \x0d\ Continue to step 6, and the whole body enters a very comfortable state, as if all the pressure and constraints have disappeared. \x0d\ Continue to step 7 ... You like the relaxed and comfortable feeling now. \x0d\ Continue down to the eighth step, and you will go deeper and deeper into the subconscious, and enter a feeling of returning to your spiritual hometown, full of security and tranquility. \x0d\ Continue to step 9, and you will soon reach the hypnotic state of deep relaxation. \x0d\ Continue to descend to the tenth staircase, savor and feel carefully, and enjoy deep relaxation ... You are going to the basement ... to explore the depths of your heart ... \ x0d \ When using the method of descending stairs, first make sure that the case has no existing fear of the basement, because some people have bad emotional connection with darkness and underground, and it will only become meaningless if the hypnotist rashly uses it. \x0d\ Treatment stage \x0d\ When Xiao Gan walked into the basement, she let me know in a low voice that she had entered a group full of soft white light. Her mood was so quiet that she seemed to have never been so relaxed and happy, so I gave her three minutes to enjoy the taste of this source of inner happiness. \x0d\ Three minutes later, I led her and said, "Now I slowly count from one to ten. When I count to ten, your subconscious will automatically lead you back to a certain time in the past, an event that has a key impact on you, perhaps your past life, perhaps your childhood, perhaps the recent time. In short, your subconscious will automatically guide you. When I count to ten, whatever you see and think, please say it like a reporter's live broadcast. After you say it, you will feel in a good mood and a lot of negative emotions will be released. \x0d\ Then I slowly counted from one to ten and watched her expression change. \x0d\ When I count to ten, her eyes suddenly turn, which usually means that the subconscious begins to provide information, and the other person's inner vision works, seeing some images, and sometimes experiencing the past again. \x0d\ Soon, her tears overflowed from her eyes, her nose turned red, showing a sad look, and then she began to choke. At first, she was a little reserved. At this moment, I said softly, "Very well, this is a very good thing. Let your inner emotions freely express themselves. So, after a while, it escalated from SOB to SOB. \x0d\ I kept silent, observed quietly, and decided not to do anything for the time being to see how much her emotions could be released spontaneously. \x0d\ Soon, the sobbing escalated to wailing again, and the whole consulting room was shaken by the outbreak of crying. \x0d\ In this case, I was worried that my neighbors would be bored by crying and bombing, and I collectively pulled out white bars to protest. Since I installed soundproof doors and windows in the counseling room, I dare to make the case cry happily. \x0d\ I know that under the automatic guidance of the subconscious, Xiao Gan discovered a wound that has been dusty for many years. Now she needs a little time to release her emotions. Moreover, crying under hypnosis itself is a very effective treatment method, so it has been going well so far. \x0d\ When the crying came to an end and gradually turned into intermittent sobs, I asked her, "What just happened? \x0d\ She told me with tears in her eyes that when she was five years old, one day her mother went out and wanted to follow her. She doesn't know why she didn't follow her, but she is also strictly required to stay at home and not run out. \x0d\ In this way, she stayed at home alone, crying all the time, sleeping when she was tired, and worrying about whether her mother would abandon her and never come back. Finally, in the evening, my mother came back and started cooking, without comforting her, as if nothing had happened. \x0d\ This event has not happened to her for nearly 20 years. She was surprised that she cried so bitterly just now. She felt that the incident emerged so clearly and vividly, and the emotion emerged so fiercely that it was incredible. \x0d\ I used the expressive ability of an adult to guide her back to five years old. When her mother came back in the evening, I said to her, "Mom, I am so sad and scared that you left me alone at home today. I feel like the end of the world. If you don't come back, I'll be an orphan. "Mom, don't leave me later. If you can't take me with you, tell me why, will you? \x0d\ I asked her, what did my mother say after listening to this passage? \x0d\ She said that after her mother listened, she hugged her and apologized to her, saying, "Mom loves you very much, please forgive her, and I will definitely do as you say in the future. Then mother and daughter embraced for a long time. \x0d\ Then, I guided her to go through the incident again, and this time she could see the whole process with a calm and detached mind. Now it seems to her that it is just a neutral memory. \x0d\ At this time, it's almost time. It's time to end hypnotherapy. \x0d\ De-hypnosis \x0d\ Because Xiao Gan likes spiritual practice, I will add the image and energy like a crystal ball to the guiding speech, especially since she has just made great efforts to cry, so in addition to the general de-hypnosis speech, I also specially presented a program to replenish energy. \x0d\ Well, now, we are about to end this hypnosis. Only in the process of hypnosis, what you experienced and felt will be clearly remembered in your mind, and you can recall it at any time, which will be greatly inspired and helped. \x0d\ Next time you are hypnotized, you will easily enter a hypnotic state, or even enter a deeper and better hypnotic state, and you will gain a lot. \x0d\ Now, you begin to feel yourself floating, slowly floating, your body floating, floating, floating, floating in a very high sky, and your whole body is relaxed and comfortable ... \ x0d \ Now, take a deep breath and a huge crystal ball appears in front of your eyes. This crystal ball is clear, transparent and beautiful, emitting soft and comfortable energy to surround you. X0d\ Take a deep breath. You are like a charging battery, absorbing endless energy from the crystal ball to make you more energetic and energetic ... \ x0d \ Now, take a deep breath and absorb energy from the crystal ball to your heart's content, your body will become healthier and healthier, your mind will become more and more calm and serene, you will face everything with more confidence, and you have the ability to do anything well. You will get better every day. \x0d\ Now, when I count from ten to one, you will open your eyes, return to the real world and return to normal, and then you will be completely awake and feel extremely comfortable. \x0d\ 10。 Wake up slowly and feel comfortable. \x0d\ nine, more and more sober. \x0d\ VIII. Slowly restore the normal feeling of the body. \x0d\ seven, more and more sober. \x0d\ 6, feel at ease. \x0d\ Five, more and more sober. \x0d\ IV. Feeling full of energy. \x0d\ Third, more and more sober. \x0d\ Second, I'm about to wake up, and I feel great! \x0d\ 1。 Open your eyes, rub your eyes, rub your ears, wipe your face, take a deep breath and get your body moving. You're wide awake. Xiao Gan opened his eyes and smiled a little shyly. The whole person looks radiant and bright. \x0d\ I have seen this situation too many times. In many cases, when hypnosis ends, the whole person seems to have just made a face with fairy water in the sky, and his face is radiant. \x0d\ I asked her, "Does it feel great? "x0d" she nodded, her eyes shining with beautiful light.
