Hypnotize
your friends in simple easy steps, by Wayne Perkins, "the
school assembly hypnotist" and trainer of hypnotherapist!
Practical exercises replace boring theory in helping the reader
learn hypnotism in just a few hours.
Pre-hypnosis Testing
I am going to call the following exercises pre-hypnosis
testing, but I don't want to you to refer to these tests as tests.
They work better when you call them exercises or
experiments. All of these tests, exercises or experiments are
designed to lead an individual into hypnosis. In fact any of these
tests can actually replace the formal hypnotic induction, (which
you will learn in the next chapter) when you have the right
subject. That is a topic that is discussed more in length in my
advanced hypnosis courses.
TEST #1
Test of the
imagination
Tell the subject to stand with his/her feet
together and arms outstretched toward you with hands extended and
palms facing downward. The subject's arms should be parallel with
each other. Tell the subject to look at his outstretched arms and
make sure that they are parallel and absolutely level with each
other.
What you say next
Next, cue the subject by
telling her, close your eyes down tight....shutting out the light.
I am going to count from three down to one. When I reach one, I
want you to picture that a heavy weight is tied to your right
hand, drawing it down toward the floor. Okay, three....two
.....one....
Picture a heavy weight tied to your right
hand, drawing it down toward the floor. It gets heavier and
heavier and is pulling your hand down toward the floor.
Note.
You should begin to see some movement of the right hand or arm
toward the floor. Keep giving those suggestions over and over
again until you see some movement.
What you say next
Now
I want you to picture a balloon filled with helium gas tied to
your left wrist, pulling it high up in the air. Your left hand and
arm are being pulled up higher and higher up in the air. Your
right wrist pulling down...down...down toward the floor and your
left wrist lighter...and lighter being pulled up, up, up in the
air. Now open your eyes, and look at your arms!
