Instant Hypnotic Inductions - Rapid Hypnosis
INSTANT HYPNOSIS INDUCTIONS - Rapid Inductions - Speed-Trance - NLP Handshake Inductions Article by Paula Saxon Nongard, MA/CCH Whether you want to learn stage or street hypnosis or have been practicing professionally for years, or if you are a clinical hypnotist looking for better ways to engage your clients, rapid and instant inductions can improve your presentation and confidence. If you use YouTube.com, you’ve probably seen tons of free hypnosis video clips on instant or rapid induction methods. One quite popular video is Milton Erickson’s Handshake Induction, and others have videos up demonstrating versions of an NLP handshake induction. Many of these clips are entertaining to watch, but some of them, while short, are actually quite educational, such as those posted by professional hypnotists Richard Nongard, John Cerbone. Many hypnotists may wonder why you would use an instant or rapid induction, rather than a traditional induction. For some it’s only a matter of personal preference, but they all have their uses, in specific situations. Traditional induction methods, such as PMR or progressive muscle relaxation, eye-fixation, visualization and awareness inductions are still quite useful with specific populations, such as certain clinical life-improvement clients. Those who are over-anxious, who just want to relax, or who expect a lengthy induction may require a more traditional approach, and that’s just fine. However, with most clients, given the option, why would you waste twenty minutes on induction when you can spend fifteen minutes of that time focused on targeted assessment, and creating and delivering practical suggestions, and move your clients along? Furthermore, these kinds of inductions often take ten to twenty minutes or longer when done in full, so if you do a complete head-to-toe PMR induction at a stage hypnosis show, your entire audience is likely to be asleep, and that’s not what they expected or paid admission to experience. Rapid inductions, meaning those that induce trance in about three to seven minutes, have become quite popular over the past decade, especially with stage hypnosis shows and returning clinical hypnosis clients. With a rapid induction, you are essentially cutting the more traditional induction down to, as screenwriter/author William Goldman might say, ‘the good parts.’ Instead of addressing every single muscle in the body for a PMR induction, you would work with muscle groups (shoulders and arms, torso, legs), and instead of delivering the induction in an Ericksonian or indirective, free-style unabridged manner, your speech would be far more pithy and instructional in nature. In short, fewer words with more direction equals less time into trance. The rising popularity of ‘street hypnosis’ - performing hypnotic acts rather spontaneously in social situations - has created a need for more immediate inductions. European sensation hypnotist Peter Powers popularized street hypnosis with a television special several years ago. However, his show would have been quite boring had they also filmed and showed the pre-talk and intensive induction process he used, rather than just the entertaining phenomena he demonstrated with his subjects. Average Joe hypnotists do not carry cameras around, and their subjects on the street or in local bars and restaurants expect instant results. Responding to this demand, celebrity hypnotist John Cerbone, an originator of several eye-popping induction methods, working closely with innovative hypnotist Richard Nongard, have taken the term ‘instant’ quite literally, and have shaved induction time down to literally three to six seconds. Their amazing results are now known the world over as ‘speed-trance.’ There are several variations of the instant induction method, from a refreshing twist on the famous NLP, Milton Erickson and Cal Banyan’s rapid Handshake Inductions, to Cerbone’s original six-second Butterfly Flutterdown. With a little practice and an open mind, these strategies are simple to master and will certainly WOW the crowd. Additionally, they are quite useful as hypnotic convincers in stage show productions, as well as for getting down to business with returning clinical clients.
