Hypnotic Suggestion Formation

The acceptance, and effectiveness of any hypnotic suggestion is completely dependent upon “what” we say, and most importantly “how” we say it.

When ones subject is in a medium to deep level of hypnosis it is recommended that the language used be simple enough for a 12-year old to understand, because the subconscious mind is very direct and literal, so if the hypnotic suggestion is complicated, it would still have a fairly good chance of being carried out, but, probably out of the context desired.

Hypnotic suggestions must be specific, because the unconscious mind is very direct. Hypnotic suggestions should always be worded in a positive format, stating what is desired, not what one wants to avoid.

Considering the “law of expectancy” (I learned this one years ago in a “Brian Tracy” seminar) the hypnotic suggestion should be structured in a way that feeds into the expectations of our clients belief, that the desired result will occur.

Compounding one hypnotic suggestion over the next after each successfull accomplishment also helps increase expectancy.

The most important of the ingredients for any hypnotic suggestion I believe, would be emphasis, using emotion. Throughout life, it is quite easy to see example after example, showing that the more emotion plays in something, the greater the effect on the subject and/or observer. Emphasis simply goes along with the emotion, because strong emotions are naturally emphasized, so “exaggerate” as a rule. I think I might do this a little too well, as my lawyer keeps asking me to stop being so “dramatic”.

The role of indirect hypnotic suggestion is in the bypassing of the conscious thought process. If I were to say to you, “I wonder what it would be like to enter trance now …”, it might induce a thought. Now, if I stressed the word “wonder”, I would increase the chance of your curiosity, and if I slightly changed the tone, volume, or location of my voice in a slight enough manner, that only the unconscious picks up the command, when saying “enter trance now ....”, there is a good chance of trance occurring. With the addition of repetition, and other similar type wording used over a short time, the possibility of a hypnotic induction increases.

A few more guidelines which would be dependent upon the specific circumstances are:
a) The use and manner of providing present and future-tense hypnotic suggestions.
b) The recommendation to use active rather than passive statements.
c) Using mental trickery by providing the assumption of choice with the use of EITHER/OR choice, known as the double bind.
d) Avoiding the use of words with double-meanings, unless they are selectively used for subliminal suggestion. Remember clients are individuals, so start from scratch, because no body knows how handy and uplifting the use of phonological ambiguities might be, and
e) Consideration and ethics are always of the utmost importance.
