Hey Guys,

BlackFrank here (New PUA to the SF Bay area) and as you guessed it, I do hypnotherapy work, I've worked around the world with PUA, helping them overcome "AA" approach anxiety and thought that some of you might benefit from this powerful tool! There are plenty resources online, I'm not selling anything, however if you meet me sometime I'm happy to share my knowledge

OVER the years, hypnosis has picked up all sorts of weird associations from stage hypnotists, the media and superstition. This is a great shame, because in reality, hypnosis is your single most effective tool for change. Hypnosis is your birthright, and you should know how to use it so it doesn’t use you. Here we dispel the biggest hypnosis myths.

Hypnosis Myth 1) All hypnosis is the same

As with anything, hypnosis can be good, bad or indifferent. The most common is old-style authoritarian hypnosis of the type “You are getting sleepy, you are feeling confident”. Unsurprisingly, this sort of hypnosis doesn’t work well with many people. Good hypnosis uses subtle psychological principles and advanced communication patterns.

It’s like the difference between a football coach who thinks you’ll perform best if he yells at you, compared with the more elegant style of a great leader who knows that to get the best from his people, he needs to understand motivation, to cajole, encourage and reward.

Hypnosis Myth 2) Subliminals work

Subliminals are words that you can’t hear. Common sense says they shouldn’t work, and there’s no research proving that they do. Personally I think they do and I use them often

Hypnosis Myth 3) Some people can’t be hypnotized

The only reason you can’t be hypnotized is if you are incapable of paying attention due to extremely low IQ or brain damage. That’s not to say that every hypnotist can hypnotize you however. The more flexible the hypnotist, the more effective she will be with the largest number of people.

Hypnosis Myth 4) Hypnosis is something weird that other people do to you

If you couldn’t go into hypnosis, you wouldn’t be able to sleep, to learn, or get nervous through ‘negative self hypnosis’. (You know when you imagine things going wrong and it makes you feel anxious? Well that’s self hypnosis!)

Hypnosis is simply a deliberate utilization of the REM (Rapid Eye Movement) or dream state. We’re not giving people medication here – if it wasn’t a natural ability, hypnosis wouldn’t work!

Hypnosis Myth 5) You lose control in hypnosis

Crazy news stories, stage hypnotists and gossip have created the illusion that you lose control in hypnosis. In fact, when hypnotized, you are relaxed and focused – and able to choose to get up and walk away at any time. You choose to give your attention to the hypnotist, and you can withdraw it at any time.

If you have been scared of hypnosis in the past, this post has hopefully convinced you to at least give it a try.

PM me if you want to learn more about how hypnosis can help your inner game

Sure breedlove465, the shortest answer to your question is, hypnosis is an induced (trance) state, similar to that that occurs in a daydream

Hypnotherapy is the act by which a therapist induces the hypnotic state and utilizes it for therapeutic purposes

Why do you think the hypnotic state is useful? What is special about it?

Why do you think you'd be able to induce a state like this in someone?

Are you aware that many hypnotists when they get out of the business admit that its entirely made up and only works through a placebo affect?
