Hypnosis – What Conversational Hypnosis Is Not
“Conversational Hypnosis is a skill that can be used in a multitude of different ways. If you like the following article on
the subject, you can get all of the details by clicking here”
We live in a world today that is full of perceptions, deceptions and misconceptions; it is often hard to tell one from the
other when learning about new things.
Hypnosis is no stranger to an incredible amount of misconceptions, which is why it is important to really understand what
those misconceptions are before assuming you can or cannot accomplish an objective through hypnosis. To really
understand what hypnosis, or anything for that matter, is you must first understand all that it is not.
Once you know what hypnosis is not, everything you are left with is what hypnosis is.
Hypnosis has been given many false pretenses through the media, movies and just plain rumor. Hypnosis is not the ability
to have complete domination over one’s mind, nor is it domination over another human being.
Another thing hypnosis is not is the ability to dominate another’s will. In a nutshell there is nothing about hypnosis that
will lead you to complete domination of the world or human kind, so if this is your intention you should stop here and
embark on a new path.
The misconceptions that surround hypnosis can seem almost endless, which can often be the case when you consider any
type of work that is associated with power over ones mind, thoughts, ideas and actions.
There are all kinds of associations and false ideas that are created when society acknowledges that power accompanies any
way of life, this include hypnosis. For example money carries the connotation of power, however unless you are
knowledgeable about how to be powerful with money you will fail.
The misconceptions about hypnosis must be wiped from the slate if you are serious about becoming an eloquent and
masterful hypnotist.
The most common misconception in the field of hypnosis is that associated with power. Yes it is true that you will own a
sort of power over the mind of your subjects, however this is not to say you will be able to control them completely.
Quite the opposite, part of hypnosis that few are aware of is that hypnosis is actually a type of negotiation with the
unconscious mind. The unconscious mind is where you store your base of morals and ethics, and while you can as a
hypnotist negotiate with the unconscious, you will never be able to change or control one’s morals and ethics.
The ethical code stored in the unconscious is unbreakable, these are the ideas, beliefs and moral standards that every
person chooses to live their life by.
Among the common myths of hypnosis is the idea that one can completely control another, this is a myth simply because a
person, whether in hypnotic trance or not, will only do what they want to do.

A good example of this is the common entertainment of stage hypnotists. Stage hypnotists will ask for volunteers from
their audience, volunteers know on some level that they will be asked while in a hypnotic state to do things that they may
not be aware that they are doing, they may even be embarrassing.
However on some level in their minds they are volunteering because they crave the attention that comes from being
exhibitionists. The volunteers know they will be controlled by the hypnotist and they are consciously okay with that
because it does not cause conflict with their moral code.
Another common myth about the art of hypnosis is that you can create a person so controlled that they will do your evil
bidding, or acts that a hypnotist may not want to be personally responsible for. This again is untrue on the level that this
will most often conflict with the moral standing and ethics of most people, therefore is not possible.
All this leaves us with what is left, which is what hypnosis really is. Conversational hypnosis is a way of healing and
helping people to live better, healthier and happier lives through the art of language and suggestion. Hypnosis is used to its
full potential when all parties are prospering from it; the ‘hypnotic messenger’ is a prime example of this.
The ‘hypnotic messenger’ was created when two hypnotists who were seeing the same subject and exchanged messages
through the subject.
The messages were placed in the subconscious while the person was in a hypnotic state. As the subject visited each
hypnotist and relayed the messages back and forth the hypnotists gave him free treatments as they felt a little shame in the
amusing yet harmless game they were playing.
The subject continued to deliver the messages and everyone learned from the situation. The subject was receiving free
therapy, and the hypnotists were not only amusing themselves but learning in the process.
This process worked because there was no moral rule being broken or violated in the process of message relay,
subconsciously the subject was in agreement or had not conflict with the messages the hypnotists were sending back and
forth.
On the other hand a client that is given the subconscious message to do harm to another will not carry out the suggestion
because it will often conflict with their morals.
A subject that is asked to commit an act that is forbidden by their religion will not do so even if it is something that may
seem harmless to many people, such as dancing. All suggestions and whether they are carried out or not depends on the
moral code of the subject and whether or not they truly, ethically believe it is an acceptable behavior.
As a hypnotist it is important to focus on the fact that your goal is to help the mind fulfill what is important to that person,
find and fulfill it’s purpose, in this the unconscious mind will do all that is necessary and possible to reach that goal and
work with the hypnotist for complete success.

Improving in the art of hypnosis is always going to more
Improving in the art of hypnosis is always going to be a great idea. When you are working in the area of hypnosis it is not only important to know what you are doing but perfecting the ways or the HOW you do it is vital. Know how and what to do will create an unbreakable base for you as a hypnotist. Hypnosis is a performance art so learning the performance part of hypnosis is a given. Part of performance in learning hypnosis is to understand the elements of hypnotic language. One of those elements is tonality. Tonality is the key to unlocking a great deal of information in hypnosis. It is vital that you spend time learning what words to say but equally important to know how to say those words in order to get your point across. A helpful study by Mr. Birdwhistell is the study of how the actual meanings of words were broken down between words, tonality and body language. The conclusion of the study was surprising for many. The study showed that choice of words is very important but the words themselves really only accounted for 7% of the meaning in the word. However the way you say the word, or the tonality you use, was responsible for 38% of the words meaning. And astonishing 55% of the meaning derived from statements and words comes from the body language you use, your nonverbal communications. This study tells us that if you focus only on the choice of words you use you will more than likely be a poor hypnotist. However if you focus on the words and the performance of those words you will capture more of the elements to becoming a great hypnotist. In order to study the performance area of hypnotism you must first understand that hypnosis is something you do with a person. You must learn how to convey the presentation of your statements and this is where we start. The use of differing tonality in the language you use as a hypnotist will change the meanings of the statements you are saying to your subjects. It is important to play with the different ways you can say words as the meanings will change as your delivery of the word changes. Take the word ‘no’ for instance. There is technically only one meaning for the word itself; however you can change that meaning if you change your tone as you say the word. Play with, it say ‘no’ in ways that would imply yes or maybe. There is a way to say ‘no’ that is stern and serious and a way to say it playfully and so on and so forth. less
