Eye Fatigue Hypnosis in Bangalore
by Brian David Phillips •
Here’s a video clip with a variation of the eye fatigue hypnotic induction. You will notice that the trance partner does not respond readily and so I adjust the patter to allow her to take a bit more time to respond. The video was shot during my Bangalore course in Speed Hypnosis last Summer. All…

The HYPNOTIC Stare . . . look into my eyes
by Brian David Phillips •
The myth of the hypnotic stare or the power of the hypnotist’s eyes is both a boon and a bane to hypnotists. I’ve actually had shopkeepers beg me not to look them in the eyes after they’ve found out that I’m a hypnotist. Of course, I’ve also had folks ask me to hypnotize them right…
