Learn hypnotism in three days

Chapter 6 Are you suitable for hypnosis? - Hypnotic Sensitivity (1)
Childhood trauma can become subconscious and buried over time.Gradually, memory bias and the influence of other factors in the growth process will multiply the distorted impressions and feelings left in the mind when they were young, and even seriously affect people's psychology and Behavior.

[-]. Evoking the memory of "past life and present life"
Chen Rong's major is psychological counseling. The reason why she chose this major is because Chen Rong wants to solve some of her psychological problems.But she felt that the psychology courses offered by the school were really boring, such as general psychology, social psychology, etc., which made her so boring that she wanted to sleep.In my sophomore year, the school opened a new course-hypnosis.

Chen Rong has seen many movies about hypnotism before. In those film and television works, after receiving the suggestion of the hypnotist, the person enters the hypnotized state and becomes unconscious. possible tasks.These miraculous effects of hypnosis made Chen Rong want to become a hypnotist.

Once, Chen Rong heard the teacher say in class that under hypnosis, people's lost memories can be reproduced.The teacher also said that sometimes people have problems because they were affected by certain events in their childhood.And some people will forget these events that happened in childhood, which is very detrimental to the solution of psychological problems.

For the most part, though, hypnosis classes are pretty boring.Because when the teacher was in class, most of the content he talked about was some theoretical knowledge, which made Chen Rong, who was originally very interested in hypnotism, feel drowsy.However, when the get out of class was about to end, the teacher said that we will take everyone to do a "past life and present life" hypnosis in the next class.When Chen Rong and the students in the class heard it, they immediately regained their spirits.They are all thinking, is there really a past life?So what was my previous life like?Everyone is looking forward to the next class.

The hypnosis class finally came, and even those students who often skipped classes came to the class with curiosity under the notice of other students.The teacher first asks the students to relax in their seats and choose a way that they think is most comfortable to sit down.

The teacher said softly: "Now, let yourself sit on the chair very relaxedly. Someone who wears glasses takes off the glasses, and someone who wears a watch takes off the watch... Close your eyes. Once you close your eyes, you will You will feel very relaxed and comfortable…”

To enter a hypnotic state, the hypnotized person's body and mind must be completely relaxed, the more relaxed the better.Because this will not only enable the hypnotized person to enter the hypnotic state better, but also enable the hypnotized person to enter a deeper subconscious level, and even effectively avoid accidents during hypnosis.

Studies have shown that under continuous and repeated stimulation, people will greatly reduce their conscious and subconscious defense mechanisms.In this state, people are more receptive to cues than usual.

And these continuous and repeated suggestive stimuli are actually to make the hypnotized person completely relax and let go of the usually tense self-consciousness, so that the subconscious mind in the brain can take the center of the stage, and the usual protagonist-self-consciousness is in the center of the stage. It's good to be a spectator at this time.

Therefore, during the whole process of hypnosis, the hypnotized person clearly knows what is going on in the heart, and sometimes, the hypnotized person will be surprised why a simple instruction from the hypnotist will give the answer to his mind .

The teacher continued: "Now pay attention to your breathing. You start to take a deep breath, slowly inhale the air, and then slowly exhale the air. When you take a deep breath, imagine that you are inhaling all the oxygen in the air, so that you The body is full of fresh vitality, and then, when exhaling, imagine that you exhale all the carbon dioxide in the body, so that the body can completely eliminate the feeling of fatigue and discomfort. Every deep breath, let you enter a deeper , more relaxed and more comfortable state.”

At this time, many students had already entered a very relaxed state, but Chen Rong could still be attracted by the sound outside the classroom window.

In fact, paying attention to breathing is an ancient meditation technique. When people's consciousness is fully focused on breathing, people will not be disturbed by external things. This is a process that must be experienced in entering a hypnotic state.In this process, the hypnotized person generally needs to take about three deep breaths, and the hypnotist can start to give new instructions.If the hypnotist finds that the hypnotized person is still unable to enter a relaxed state, or feels that the hypnotized person is not relaxed enough, he can ask the hypnotized person to take a few more deep breaths.

Because slow and long deep breathing can effectively reduce the frequency of people's brain waves, increase the oxygen content of the human blood, and then stimulate a certain part of the human brain to secrete a substance called brain endorphin, allowing people to enter a deeper state. Subconscious, resulting in a sense of tranquility, comfort and even happiness.

The teacher continued: "From now on, you won't think about anything. You will only respond to my voice and instructions, and other external noises will not disturb you."

The teacher continued: "Keep breathing deeply...bring your attention to your head, let your scalp relax, let your skull relax...now, pay attention to your eyebrows, and let the muscles around your eyebrows do the same. RELAX... focus on your eyes, let your eyelids relax, let your eyeballs relax... focus on your ears, let the muscles on either side of your ears relax completely... focus on your jaw, let the muscles around your jaw relax too... …notice your neck, let your neck be completely relaxed…notice your shoulders, let your shoulders be completely relaxed…notice your hands, let your left and right hands be completely relaxed…notice your chest, let your The chest is completely relaxed... focus on your back and relax your back muscles... focus on your hips and relax your hips... focus on your legs and allow the muscles in your legs to relax..."

The students became more and more relaxed, and most of them were already slumped on their chairs.But Chen Rong's head was still thinking wildly, and she didn't know why she couldn't accept the instructions given by the teacher.

The teacher continued: "Now, your whole body is relaxed. You feel light and comfortable all over your body. You can pay attention to see if there is any part of your body that is not relaxed enough, let it relax slowly."

At this time, most of the students in the class have slowly lowered their heads, and their breathing began to become slow and even.

The teacher continued, "Now, when I count from one to ten, you will be more relaxed than you are now."

At this time, most of the hypnotized people can't wait to complete the hypnotist's instructions, and some hypnotized people will not believe the hypnotist's instructions.

The teacher counted slowly, from one to ten.When the teacher counts to ten, say, "You will now see a staircase, and you will walk slowly down the staircase. Now, you have come to the end of the stairs. At the end of the stairs is a wooden door. When you open the door slowly...slowly...you will see a strong white light."

In fact, when the hypnotized person opens the wooden door, it opens the door of his subconscious mind, which is the time to talk to his subconscious mind.

Teacher: "Now, time is turned back, and the door of the subconscious that stores all the past memories has been opened by you. You can wake up any memory you want, and your brain will be very clear, and your thinking will be very clear. You will end in hypnosis I still remember these scenes.”

Teacher: "Now, when I start counting from one to ten, you start to go back in time and go back to your deepest memory in middle school."

After the teacher finished counting, he continued: "Look at your middle school campus, look at your best classmates, look at your middle school teachers..."

In fact, generally speaking, people's middle school memories are stored in the middle stage of the subconscious mind. As long as the hypnotist gives a little hint, the hypnotized person can immediately recall it.Evoking memories of middle school is actually a preparation for the hypnotized person to proceed to the next step-to arouse early memories deep in the subconscious.

Later, the teacher asked the students to recall their primary school days, before going to school, when they were babbling, and when they were breastfeeding shortly after birth.

At this time, the hypnotized person will generally recall things that have long been forgotten by him.At this time, most people will be in a situation of remembering the happy life in childhood, and will feel warm, happy and even happy.

However, if someone had some trauma in childhood, she will be overwhelmed by a painful feeling at this time.Because certain events in childhood may produce distorted impressions and feelings in the eyes of children whose minds have not yet fully developed.A large part of the reason why many people's psychological problems have been unable to be solved is from childhood trauma.

Childhood trauma can become subconscious and buried over time.Gradually, memory bias and the influence of other factors in the growth process will multiply the distorted impressions and feelings left in the mind when they were young, and even seriously affect people's psychology and Behavior.

The teacher continued to guide: "Next, you continue to go back in time. Now, you have returned to your mother's womb, and you are just a fetus now."

Teacher: "Now, when I count from one to ten, you will go back to before you were born."

This is the most critical stage in the "past life and present life" hypnosis.At this time, some hypnotists will feel that the weight of the whole body seems to have completely disappeared, and the body is light and fluffy, like a feather, leaving only pure consciousness.

At this time, some highly suggestive hypnotists can see the scene of their previous life without any other guidance from the hypnotist.However, most of the hypnotized people still have to further accept the guidance of the hypnotist.

At this time, the teacher slowed down his speaking speed and said: "Now you are entering a huge museum, which is filled with many classical things. You are now in the museum, and you are walking slowly. , A wall appeared in front of you, and a portrait of a person was hung on the wall. When you took a closer look, you found that the person in the painting was yourself...and that was you in the previous life."

At this time, the hypnotized person returns to his previous life, but many unexpected changes will occur.Under normal circumstances, in order to allow the hypnotized person to enter a deeper level more comfortably, the hypnotist will first choose to guide the hypnotized person to have a relatively pleasant past life memory.

Teacher: "Now, back to the happiest time in your previous life... What happened that left the deepest impression on you?"

At this time, most of the students showed smiles and happy expressions.

Teacher: "Now, start to recall, what important things happened in your previous life?"

At this time, complex expressions appeared on the faces of most of the students.Some students still look very comfortable, but some students seem to be in pain.

The teacher felt that it was time for the students to end the hypnosis, so he continued: "Now, I will start counting from one to ten, and you will wake up slowly. After the end of the hypnosis, you will still remember clearly what you see."

Under the guidance of the teacher, the students gradually woke up, and everyone reacted differently.Some students were very happy; some students looked skeptical, as if they were doubting whether what they saw just now was true; some students were in pain, as if they saw an unpleasant situation during hypnosis.But Chen Rong was at a loss, because she didn't understand why she didn't see anything. Could it be that she didn't enter the hypnotic state at all?
The teacher said: "I hope everyone can share their state or what they saw during hypnosis."

A classmate stood up and said: "I walked through that white light and went to another world. I went to a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters. There are rivers, waterfalls, and birds and flowers. It seems to be in a fairyland. I still wear the current clothes. There I was alone, so I just walked and walked, hoping to find a place with people. Later, I saw a cave glowing with light, and I went in curiously. However, I saw nothing in the cave, and I Came out disappointed."

"I just walked around, but when it was dark, I didn't see a person. I felt so lonely, so I yelled, but I didn't hear any sound except my own echo, not even a bug. There was no cry. The deathly silence around me made me feel bored, so I just lay down on the ground and slept. However, I couldn’t fall asleep before dawn. I just walked around in the woods. When it was bright, I suddenly walked out of the woods, and there was a village in front of the woods. My intuition told me that my home was there, so I ran over quickly, thinking that I would definitely find my family in that village with friends..."

Then, several students shared.Later, the teacher asked if anyone could not enter the hypnotic state at all.Chen Rong immediately raised her hand, and she said, "No matter how hard I try, I still can't enter the state. I can always hear voices outside the classroom."

The teacher explained: "This is actually quite normal. Hypnosis does not work for everyone, and a very small number of people cannot be hypnotized. This shows that your subconscious protection mechanism is very strong, and it may be that you The hints from others are very weak. Moreover, we are performing group hypnosis this time, and we do not have many hypnotic conditions that must be met. Although in the state of hypnosis, the surrounding environment has little influence on the hypnotized person , but hypnosis must choose a quiet and undisturbed environment."

[-]. Test whether you can be hypnotized

In our lives, many people experience the feeling of hypnosis because they are very interested or curious about hypnosis.Hypnosis in this situation is very difficult to succeed.Because hypnosis is not something that people just think of to hypnotize and plan something fun.In other words, if hypnosis has no theme, it will be difficult to succeed.

If you accept hypnosis just out of curiosity, you will basically not succeed.Because in this case, people first have a questioning attitude towards hypnosis, that is, they do not trust the hypnotist, and they will have a resistance psychology in the process of accepting hypnosis.And at this time, people's vigilance will be very high, and it is impossible to reduce or cancel the defense mechanism of their consciousness.

If the hypnotized person is for the purpose of solving their own psychological problems, it is easier to accept hypnosis.However, some people are more difficult to accept the suggestion of others, and it is also difficult to accept hypnosis.

Many people have such a misunderstanding: smart people cannot be hypnotized by others, and only those idiots can be easily controlled by hypnotists.This is a wrong view.It turns out that we cannot hypnotize an imbecile.Because hypnosis is a cooperative process between the hypnotized and the hypnotist, and the imbecile cannot understand the hypnotist's hypnotic instructions to him, so he naturally does not know how to cooperate with the hypnotist.Hypnosis can only be successful when the person being hypnotized and the hypnotist cooperate.

In addition, the trust of the hypnotized person in the hypnotist is also very important.If you don't trust the hypnotist, you can't be hypnotized by him.Some people have difficulty in generating trust in others, and the success rate of such people being hypnotized is also very low.
