Subject: Covert Waking Trance - Martial Artist
Hi guys
After my Seminar post, Covert Waking Trance has been mentioned
quite a lot in recent posts, so this is how it works
Now people are very curious about this phenomenon, and really want
to understand how it works.
We've all see Derren perform waking trance phenomenon, and the
incredible effects you can perform
When I have perform similar, I have used 3 Methods
Method 1 - Traditional Method
I hypnotise some people, and get them to carry out some commands,
then as they are in a highly suggestive state, I will wake them and
they will respond to my voice, and anything I say
(Actually part of my routine - the person is awake and fully aware
through all of this)
So if I say "you can't walk"
They won't be able to walk
ME) "But you can if you touch your nose"
They touch there nose and can walk
ME) "But now your finger stuck to your nose
And there finger is stuck to their nose
And so on.....
Now that involves me putting them into a closed eye trance, but this
can be quickened by using
Method 2 - Rapid Induction Technique
Most people know I can hypnotise people, and that I can spot lies
etc, so they percieve that I have a unique skill /power over them.
This makes them highly highly suggestive, therefore using arm
catalepsy and hand locking exercises, and then follow on with the
routine above
However this also requires them knowing I am a hypnotist, and me
having to exert some control, which is fine in a performance
setting, but
in the real world is practically useless!!!
So my Favourite Method Is
Method 3 Covert Waking Trance
Using vague language and embedded commands, with strong use of
anchoring, I talk with a person, and bring them into a trance like
relaxed state conversationally.
No eyes are closed,
No one mentions hypnosis,
however,
they are extremely relaxed, comfortable and open to my suggestions
Now in my experience and in conversations with many other NLP
trainers, that this depth of relaxed Trance is very natural and can
be induced and deepened very easily.
I use this technique every day, with everyone I meet, I can do it in
under a minute, it's incredibly effective
In fact My Psychology lecture this week was on Is Hypnosis Real,
And i was challenged to Hypnnotise some one
By using this method (covert waking trance) I completly bypassed
there criical brain, and they couldn't reject my suggestions as
they where unable to hear the sugestions, as they were embedded.
Of couse they were also unaware ,what was happening as I didn't ask
them to close their eyes - which they thought I'd do.
One guy went in about 30 seconds the other took slightly longer-
about a minute.
The response was incredible , people who didn't believe, were at the
end of night, believers (subsequently I've now got some new private
clients and they were fascinated by the speed it could be
induced.
This will be one of the things people will learn when they come to
my seminar on Feb 1st
Obviously Derren could use any of these method, with the martial
artists, however this method would allow him to legitimately claim
that no one was hypnotised!!!!
As I say my favourite method is Covert Waking Trance, its very
powerful, however its much more than the words you use, it's also
about your intent.
