“Can you hypnotize a person by email, a letter, or the Internet?”

I get this question a lot. In fact, it’s easily one of the most frequently asked questions my readers want to know. So I have two options, I can give you the short answer or the long answer. Which would you prefer?

Ah, the length, that’s what I thought. Well, let me start the long answer by giving you the short answer first. The answer is a definite maybe. Actually, the answer is really yes, but you have to understand that when it comes to hypnosis, there aren’t many straight answers.

A better question might be: can you hypnotize people into doing what YOU want through a letter, email, or the Internet? That’s where things start to get a little dangerous.

I started my answer with a definite maybe because I have some really strong skills that a lot of people don’t. (I am a specialist in covert and conversational hypnosis) so in my case I can hypnotize people online, can you?

Believe it or not, the answer to that question is also a yes. Even if you don’t have the level of skill and understanding that I do, you can (and do) still hypnotize people anytime, anywhere.

In fact, you’re already doing it all the time anyway. You probably don’t know it yet and that’s where your problem lies.

You see that ALL forms of communication are inherently hypnotic. Why? Because all forms of communication are based on the use of a person’s attention and the unconscious mind MUST translate that information from the outside world into a structure that has internal meaning relevant to the person receiving its suggestions, regardless of the method used to do so. deliver them. . It is a universal process.

Now, that’s basically a long way of saying that all forms of communication are processed by the unconscious mind first. Therefore, they have an inherently hypnotic power to influence.

However, for most people, that hypnotic influence is extremely random and predetermined. Most people don’t know enough about the hypnotic structure of how we communicate for it to really work for them. They simply speak or write without taking into account any of the hypnotic variables or “hypnotic operators” that may influence the outcome of our intended message.

Thus, in the long run, their ability to influence or implement suggestions is often highly random and often paradoxical. In my classes I often make the joke. “People don’t always do what you want, but they almost always do what you tell them.”

So what does that mean exactly? Well, in NLP, we have a saying, and that saying is that “the meaning of any communication is equivalent to the result it produces.”

For example, if I tell you to bring me the blue cup from the dishwasher and you bring me the red plate on the table. Somehow, the meaning I intended to send through my method of communication with you translated to “Bring me the red plate on the table”, whose fault that is. Technically, from a hypnotic perspective… mine. The question is why?

This is where the “ultimate maybe” comes in. Now, before I continue with this explanation, let me say that I have personally generated a wide range of hypnotic phenomena via the Internet, including giving women hypnotic orgasms via instant messaging and having them call me begging me to come. In fact, I’ve even had married women drive three hours one way just to spend a couple of very intimate hours with me simply because of what I can do for them and with them via email and IM. It’s great once you get the hang of it.

So don’t ever let anyone tell you these things can’t be done, because all they’re really saying underneath all that denial is that they don’t know how to do it themselves. Let’s go back to my explanation. Let’s talk about that “red plate” for a minute.

As a hypnotic influence, the burden of communication always falls on you. This means that if you are suggesting one thing and people are doing another…

Then YOU must be the one to change what you are doing. It is not the person you are looking to hypnotize. He’s not at his job. YOU are the hypnotist. You are the one sending the communication, therefore by default YOU are the one who is supposed to be the learned and skillful communication teacher, therefore the burden of change is on you.

You must constantly monitor the effects you are having on your subject and change the what, the way, or both ways of communicating, so that the person you are hypnotizing interprets what you are saying in the desired way and complies. with your suggestions

That’s why I say – “People don’t always do what they want” Because the meaning behind what we say or communicate is “totally subjective” and is based on internal references (ideas, beliefs, labels, life experiences, etc. .) of the other person and people always behave and act based on their internal references. Makes sense?

That is why in hypnosis and NLP we seek to match the person’s internal “map” of the way they see and represent the world as closely as possible. Doing so minimizes subjective misinterpretation of our suggestions and commands. The less translation your subject has to do, the more likely it is to do what you say AND what you want. Get it?

Stop for a moment and start thinking about how much energy and awareness you have to invest just to do this face to face. Now think about trying to do that without being able to see or hear the other person’s verbal and non-verbal responses. Do you see the problem?

Many times people try to suggest something that is simply misunderstood by the other person and when that happens, people don’t do what we want; they do what they “perceive” that we have told them. Their response is the result of their interpretation of what we said and what they “think” we meant. Obviously the two are not always the same or life would be much easier. You are with me? Good.

Now the good news is that when it comes to hypnotizing someone via email, you actually have some advantages. Especially if you understand how to use hypnotic language patterns, specifically the category we like to call “presuppositions.”

A presupposition is the linguistic form of an assumption. It’s something that the subject’s unconscious mind must assume to be true just to be able to make sense of what you’ve been telling them. they also have many other advantages over launching hypnotic suggestions directly into your subject’s mind.

The other advantages you have over emails and letters are that the person reading your emails or letters will usually see and hear a mental movie of what you are communicating. If the person doesn’t know you very well, he will tend to listen to the voice in his head as he reads as if it were his own voice. if they know you they will tend to hallucinate your voice and the way you “think” you are expressing what you have written. That’s why you should never read emails or letters when you’re in a bad mood. It changes the tone of the voice inside your head and that causes you to have very different interpretations of any correspondence you find.

Now, in case you’re wondering which voice I’m talking about. It’s that little voice inside your head that just asked “What voice?” It is also the voice that diligently repeats every word I write here inside your mind as you read this article.

Pretty cool huh?

Now the good news is that the most trustworthy person someone knows is themselves. People’s favorite subject is themselves. Knowing this gives you tremendous power of influence. People often don’t resist what they hear inside their own minds, especially when they read it and hear it from themselves.

Here are some basic steps to hypnotize someone via email. We’ll talk more about each of these in depth in future articles, but this should give you a few steps to work through in the meantime.

has. know what you want

b. get your attention

against Use hypnotic language patterns

d. Create the right emotional states (pattern weaving)

me. Use the incremental fulfillment technique

We’ll cover each of these a bit more in depth in later articles.

Stay tuned for our next installation.

Trance on!
