Hypnosis | Many people while undergoing hypnosis training are taught about a concept called  “Resistance” unfortunately beyond the simple instruction about giving a good hypnotic  “pre-talk”, almost no one in the hypnosis training industry, or the conversational hypnosis training  industry for that matter EVER seems to address this forgotten domain of covert hypnotic influence.  Makes you start to wonder if they are either holding out on you, or… (maybe they just don’t know how to deal with it themselves hmmm…)

Now

I have to tell you I am on a lot of other hypnosis/hypnotists mailing lists. So obviously, I get A LOT of Email.

Most of it is the hypnosis/hypnotic equivalent of “dog poop” but every now and then I find a few gold hypnosis nuggets hidden in the poop.

One such hypnosis nuggest of which I’d like to share with you and maybe even pass on the challenge to you.

Recently I did a survey to my 1200 plus STEALTH Hypnosis Students safely Tucked away in the STEALTH Hypnosis Training Head Quarters. I was getting ready to launch the next level in their hypnosis training and I wanted to know exactly what areas they wanted their bonus hypnosis materials to focus on.

No Surprise to me, but the number one hypnosis area people wanted to know about was “how to deal with resistance” well the truth is dealing with resistance is very easy once you understand resistance.

And You MUST understand if it you Want To Master How To Defeat It. Notice I didn’t say overcome it.

That is what most “persuaders” try to do.

All resistance is a Hypnotic Phenomenon. i.e. a hypnotic operator that can be utilized.

A true master of covert hypnosis is a master of “Utilization.

Utilization is a hypnosis concept that means the ability to use situation or phenomenon that arises in such a way as to use to enhance your hypnotic effects and find a way to use it to generate hypnotic leverage on the mind of the subject.

Recently I got an email from Hypnosis Expert Clifford Mee ( you may know him from www.streethypnosis.com)

In his email Clifford Recounts a Story About the  famous Conversational Hypnosis Master “Milton Erickson”… you May have heard of him

Here’s Clifford’s  Email regarding hypnosis and utilization and a Challenge for You. ( post your analysis Below in the form of a comment)

A retired policeman once told the legendary hypnotist/hypnosis expert, Milton Erickson…

"I have emphysema, high blood pressure, and, as you can see, I am grossly
overweight.

   "I drink too much. I eat too much.

   "I want a job but my emphysema and blood pressure prevent that.

   "I would like to cut down on my smoking. I'd like to get rid of it.

   "I'd like to quit drinking about a fifth of whiskey a day and I'd like to eat sensibly."

   Erickson ask him, "Are you married?"

   The policeman replied, "No, I'm a bachelor. I do my own cooking, but
there's a restaurant right around the corner where I often visit ".

   Erickson said, "So, there's a handy restaurant around the corner where you
can dine. Where do you buy your cigarettes?"

   He said he bought two cartons at a time.

   Erickson pointed out, "In other words, you buy cigarettes not for today, but
for the future. Now since you do most of your own cooking, where do you shop?"

   The policeman said, "Fortunately, there's a little grocery store right
around the corner. That's where I get my groceries and cigarettes."

"Where do you get your liquor?"

   The policeman replied there was one right next door to the grocery.

Erickson summarized the situation.

"So you have a handy restaurant, grocery
and liquor store near your house.

   "You say you want to jog, but you can't.

   "However, you CAN walk.

   "All right, buy your cigarettes one pack at a time. Walk across town to buy your
pack.

   "That will get you in shape.

   "As for groceries, don't go to the one by your place. Find another one at least
a mile away.

   "And buy JUST enough for one meal. That's three nice walks a day.

   "As for the liquor, you can drink all you want to.

   "Take your first drink at a bar at least a mile away.

   "If you want a second drink, find another bar at least a mile away.

   "If you want a third, find another bar a mile away."

   The policeman looked at Milton Erickson angrily.

He cursed at him.

And left.

   A month later, a new patient came by to see Erickson and told him this…

   "A policeman referred me to you and said you were the only psychologist in town
who knew what he was doing."

   This story is worth reading a few times.

   There are many levels to it.

   I'll show you a couple, and then I'd like you to tell me other levels and interpretations
you've found.

   Here's one…

   Erickson did not DEPRIVE his subject of his wants. He didn't say you can't do
this, or you must stop that.

   That's what well-meaning friends and family do.

Notice it never works.

   Instead, Erickson tells the policeman what he CAN do.

   He can drink all he want, smokes all he wants, eats all he wants.

   But he must walk.

   Now, here's a second and much deeper level to this story.

   You might be thinking.

   Well, if I heard that I'd disobey and just keep on smoking, drinking and
over-eating.

   Right?

   Who in the right mind would dutifully follow these absurd instructions?

   Here's where Erickson is brilliant.

   What is a policeman trained to do from the moment he joins the academy?

He is trained to listen and obey!

   Erickson knew this.

   He has a long history of carrying out orders.

   So Erickson gave this policeman instructions, expecting him to follow it.

And this lesson is extremely important.

   What Erickson did was meet the subject in HIS frame of reference.

   When you begin the process of hypnotizing someone…

   And you're starting to build trust and rapport, it's highly important you pay
attention to who your subject is.

   Every little detail.

   A detail like being a policeman and being susceptible to following orders…

   That's huge.

   Pay attention to your next NEW hypnosis subject.

   Someone you haven't hypnotized before.

   As you find out more about who they are, start brainstorming in your head (very
quickly) how you can use what you know about them…

   …to help speed up the induction process.

   That's all the hypnosis news for today,
