Covert Conversational Hypnosis

Everyone knows you are a hypnotherapist. They know you get paid to help people change theirframe of mind! Therefore you can assume that people are going to be more sensitive and aware

of your communications than that of the average person. This means that to create change in

apparently resistant clients you will need to utilie this awareness in effective ways. hat is thedifference between covert hypnosis and covert conversational hypnosis then" The distinction is a

fine but specific one. Covert hypnosis is the act of directing a person#s mind to outcomes when

they are seeing you as a professional. Covert conversational hypnosis is utiliing hypnosiscovertly in everyday conversation. $n other words% with covert conversational hypnosis% you are

not acting in a professional capacity.

$mmediately a flag should be raised.$s this ethical"&y answer' (bsolutely. &illions of communication messages are wittingly or unwittingly

e)changed every single day. These messages often contain trance inductions and persuade people

to take some action% or not. The difference between covert conversational hypnosis and

conversation is that of intention. $n everyday conversation we tend to communicate withoutconscious awareness of our unconscious intentions. $n covert conversational hypnosis we tend to

operate with full awareness of our intention and that of the person we are communicating with.

$magine *note the hypnotic word induction+ that you are a parent and you don#t know how theunconscious mind acts and reacts.

,Don#t put your fingers into the outlet son!-

The son immediately moves to the outlet and places his fingers in the outlet. hy" The parent

clearly ordered the child /T to do that behavior. The reason is multi0fold. 1irst% the child *in all

probability+ didn#t know it was an outlet. $t is a child#s *people#s+ innate programming to becurious and e)plore that which is novel. 2econd% there is no unconscious or conscious

representation of the word ,don#t.- $n fact% the word ,don#t- is what $ call a ,directive.- This

word is useful because we tend to have a polarity response to this word. $n fact% in most people%the polarity response is 3uite strong.

The unwitting child was put into trance and told to place his fingers in the outlet. That was notthe intention of the loving parent% of course. This was a trance inducing conversation where the

result was negative4and e)amples of these conversational hypnosis are endless.

Covert hypnosis is not only powerful it is very real. e accomplished getting the son to put hisfingers into the outlet with hypnosis. ow that we know what we are doing we can use covert

conversational hypnosis appropriately and make sure his fingers stay occupied with more

appropriate behaviors!
