Instant hypnosis and rapid induction hypnosis

Instant hypnosis and rapid hypnotic inductions are actually easy to do. The instant induction can be done with the client standing or sitting. Instant Inductions are sometimes used by clinical hypnotists to induce hypnotic trance for clients who are otherwise too vigilant to be hypnotized.

The way that the Instant Hypnotic induction works is quite simple. The client is usually taken by the hand and the hypnotist starts talking to the client or distracting him in some way. The moment the client is distracted, the hypnotist suddenly does something to push the client off balance, and shouts. This causes the client to become disoriented, and the hypnotist immediately begins to give suggestions about relaxing, letting go, going deeper.... and so on. The instant induction suggestions must be given the instant the client is off balance. If the suggestions are not made within a few seconds of doing the instant induction, then the client will come out of trance as fast as he went in.

 

Instant inductions are not often used in clinical hypnosis because after an instant induction some clients feel frightened, or bewildered. Most people respond to instant inductions, but some just snap right out again.


Once you understand the principle behind instant inductions you will be able to do rapid inductions based on many kinds of sudden unexpected change.

SITTING Instant Induction SCRIPT

 

 
The Setup
   
  To start the instant induction arrange it so that the client is sitting in front of you, at a comfortable distance. Position yourself so that you are to the right of the client. It doesn't matter if you are sitting or standing.    
  It doesn't matter if the client is right or left handed.    
 
The CLASSIC SITTING INSTANT Induction
   
  Tell the client to extend their right arm with the palm facing down. Their arm doesn't have to be straight.    
  Push the back of their hand down with your left hand, just gently, and let them resist you. This is just so can get your left hand near them in a natural sort of way Ask them if they can feel the resistance.    
  The client will say 'Yes' or 'No'. Whatever the answer say 'Yes, I can feel that'.    
  Then ask the client a distracting question, all the while gently pressing down and letting the client move their hand up again. For example, 'Are you quite comfortable with that? '    
  Then smoothly move your right hand under the palm of their right hand with your hand facing upwards, and take your left hand away and put it on their shoulder.    
  Tell the client ' Now, start pressing down on my hand'.    
  as they press down, increase the strength of your upward force to match it, so their hand stays where it is and doesn't drop.    
  Say to client 'Keep pressing down, that's right'.    
  The client will press some more... keep resisting so that there is quite an upward pressure to keep it from dropping down....    
  Say to the client, in an exasperated tone...' I said press down...'.    
  The client is actually pressing down quite hard, so usually they will look at you...    
  You will see the client's eyes defocus as he thinks about what you just said, maybe shows a little annoyance... At that point the client has forgotten all about the hand and is wondering what to do or say next... .    
  The moment you see that the focus has gone inwards,
a) pull your right hand away suddenly, so that his hand goes down
   
  and at the same time,    
  b) use your left hand behind the client's right shoulder and pull forward sharply,   Be careful not to do it too hard
  and at the same time,    
  c) shout loudly 'SLEEP!' (it actually doesn't matter what you shout, but SLEEP is traditional).    
  The client will momentarily lose the power to respond as his mind goes into the startle reflex    
  YOU MUST TAKE CONTROL AT THIS POINT. YOU MUST START SPEAKING IMMEDIATELY.    
  d) Put your right hand on the client's head and gently (gently!) push the client into a more upright position, and start to gently rotate their head just a little. This adds further to the disorientation.   Safety!
  and at the same time,    
  e) Say firmly and confidently in a quiet voice,
'You are safe. You can relax now. Allow your mind to go deeply into relaxation. Just relax your body now. Allow your body to relax completely, really relaxed. All of your muscles are going loose and limp and your mind is relaxing and going deeper. And your arms are hanging loose and heavy... your head is loose and heavy...You can enjoy this feeling of total relaxation as your mind drifts away. Everything is safe and controlled for you now... Just relax..... that's right'.
   
  'And now just allow that feeling to continue... going deeper and more relaxed... nothing to think about... mind just drifting away... as you sit there totally relaxed.... '    
  [And then continue with whatever you want to demonstrate.]    
  Safety Note: Make sure the client cannot fall out of the chair, be ready to take the weight and gently put them back in the chair.
Do not be alarmed if the clients eyes are partly open and they roll their eyes up so that just the whites are showing. It is just a normal response to the startle reflex.
When you are learning instant inductions use the minimum amount of force, do not jerk people around, you can injure their muscles. It only needs a gentle push on the shoulder. Be very careful when moving their head, movement is soft, slow and minimal: if there is any doubt, don't.
   

 

 

 

Instant inductions can be done to anyone, anywhere, but you need to take care when doing instant induction hypnosis. Rapid inductions can be fun, but make sure when you are hypnotizing someone that they have consented to be hypnotized. Otherwise the outcome of the instant induction might be an instantly angry person. Instant hypnosis can be distressing if it is unexpected hypnosis. Rapid inductions are very powerful, be sure that you are ready to handle the result.
