Covert Hypnosis - How to Secretly Hypnotize Anyone

One of the tricks to learning how to secretly hypnotize anyone is realizing that this kind of covert hypnosis doesn't have a lot to do with the kind of stuff that hypnotherapists do in a hypnosis clinic. Actually, it isn't even that similiar to stage hyponotism. In both instances, the subject expects to be hypnotized. Covert hypnosis is all about putting someone into a trance state without drawing their attention and awareness to that fact. It's a subtle technique and it works, but it does require some new people skills.

But firstly, let's get one thing out of the way. Can everyone be hypnotized? I'm going to be blunt here. The answer is no. Some people are just not susceptible to any kind of hypnosis. But don't feel bad. If you can't hypnotize them, neither can the hypnotherapist with the medical degree. Some people's brains just work differently. When you encounter someone like that though, you will quickly realize the type of person you are dealing with and if you've become skilled enough to hypnotize someone secretly during a simple conversation, then even the person you can't hypnotize will never realize what you were up to before you stopped.

The interesting thing though is that the smarter someone is, the more susceptible they actually are to hypnosis. One of the things that makes people easy to hypnotize covertly is a strong ability to imagine and visualize events, situations and even feelings. Anytime you are dealing with someone who has a strong imagination, you are going to find it easier than you thought to put them into the trance state because they are already quite suggestible to begin with. Your job is then to put the appropriate suggestions into their head and to lead them to imagine the feelings that you would like to induce, and the goals you'd like them to visualize.

So how do you secretly hypnotize someone?

You start by building rapport and by learning some conversational hypnosis techniques you are naturally going to become a better communicator even if you aren't specifically trying to hypnotize someone. This is because in order to hypnotize someone you need to start paying a lot more attention to them. You'll start to notice body language, hesitation, and communication styles a lot more easily and process that information quickly so you can adapt your own communication style in order to establish rapport.

For example, if the person you want to hypnotize primarily processes experience through visual learning and representations as opposed to having an auditory representational system, then you will adapt your own conversational approach to provide visual cues that will enhance persuasion and entry into a trance state.

And you can easily pick up what someone's style is by really paying attention to their responses, like "I see what you mean," or "I hear what you are saying." What style does the latter person speaking have? It's pretty easy to figure out once you realize how simple it is. You just have to start being aware of all the different clues you are given during a conversation in order to start taking advantage of them.
