Yesterday, we saw one of my newest video clips with a waking hypnosis sequence based upon a suggestibility effect that isn’t used too often since most folks do the hands together effect quite a bit differently rather than sticking them right at the get-go.
Obviously, folks who are long time readers of the Life of Brian blog notice right off the way I use the word "because" in that clip. Readers of Robert Cialdini’s Influence books will recognize the power of the word and understand how it helps to increase the effectiveness of the suggestions . . . and those who don’t "get it" might consider joining us for the WAKING HYPNOSIS – http://www.briandavidphillips.com/training/wakingtrancebali.html – section of the upcoming BALI EXPERIENCE – http://www.briandavidphillips.com/training/baliexperience.html – which I am hosting with Dr. Deepak Vidmar.
In any case, here are a few more video clips suggestibility effects with waking hypnosis that I made last year, two with no eye closure and one with a second of eye closure in order to allow me to shift the fixation object slightly. All three use sequencing in order to build suggestion effectiveness upon previous suggestion successes. Typically, I use a stick or whatever.
EYES OPEN
SHORT EYE CLOSURE FOR FOCUS
EYES OPEN (CTS television taping)
As before, there is no smoke, no mirrors, this is done as a waking
hypnosis patter, in complete awareness and without any formal induction . . . just
plain ol’ waking suggestion. I wish the digicam clip Lorraine made of the last one (she was in the studio audience) was a bit more in focus but it’s the best I’ve got at the moment (we will eventually get footage from the studio). My shiny drumstick really looks nice on that colorful soundstage.
In any case, the pattern is a lot of fun and becomes rather second nature once you understand the principles and develop confidence through experience . . . which we will be instilling big time in Bali this February.
Obviously, the folks who participate in the WAKING HYPNOSIS – http://www.briandavidphillips.com/training/wakingtrancebali.html – component of the BALI EXPERIENCE – http://www.briandavidphillips.com/training/baliexperience.html
– in February will be learning this and other effects and how to use them
from a completely aware and waking state with no preparation as well as how to create your own sequences on the fly.
The Bali seminars are open to beginners through experienced hypnotists, all
we require is that you have a
genuine curiosity and enthusiasm for the subject matter with a willingness to come in
and play. The techniques taught
can be applied to a wide range of situations in a variety of
appropriate contexts from therapy to entertainment to recreational
activities.
Anyone is welcome, with special
pricing available for those who sign up for both the Waking Hypnosis and Magic Mind seminars of the Bali Experience package.
Folks who sign up for the entire Bali Experience package get a much better value for that experience which includes both the Waking Hypnosis and Magic Mind courses.
