INSTRUCTIONS TO HYPNOTIST
This technique can be employed using either a pen, a pencil or a coin. In many cases individuals will have coins but will not have a pen or pencil available to them. It is suggested that the subjects can use either a pen or pencil interchangably, but if you’re using coins, all the subjects should use coins.

(Ask the subject or the group to get a pen, pencil or coin and hold it out in front ...

DIRECT GAZE TECHNIQUE
This process is the Direct Gaze Induction Technique. This is the most powerful technique of all, and also the most difficult to use because you have to express perfect confidence. If you have any doubt, hesitation, or fear, it will show in your eyes; the subject will read it and it will inhibit their response.
If the subject is standing, you say to them, “All right, I want you to fix your eyes right here.” Take the index finger ...

For the moment, rest your arms limply on your thighs, just like this (demonstrate position to subject). Now I want you to look out here at my hand. In a moment I’m going to bring my hand up in front of your eyes like this. (Demonstrate bringing index and middle finger of right hand, in a pointing V position, to a position just above their eyebrows) When I do, I’ll pass my hand down in front of ...

CONFUSION METHOD
The basic message to this induction is the conscious forgetting, and the subconscious knowing. This message is drawn out and repeated. Separate directions for the conscious mind, and separate directions for the subconscious mind. Maintain the subconscious attention, while dismissing the conscious attention both by the suggestions and the pauses and mental fatigue.
Have the subject sit or lay in a relaxed position, with their eyes closed. Read the text slowly and rhythmically
SPOKEN TO THE SUBJECT
(Read only first time, do ...

SPOKEN TO THE SUBJECT
Have you ever heard of a bionic arm? (Pause for response)
(if the child hasn’t heard about the million dollar man on TV, explain something about it, especially about his unusual, powerful arm)
I want to tell you something else about the million dollar man that most people don’t know, but you’d probably go around telling everyone else. (Pause for response)
(Usually you get the child going, and he/she promises to keep it a secret)
Would you really like to know ...

SPOKEN TO THE SUBJECT
You can close your eyes now … And begin breathing deeply and slowly … Before you let go completely, and go into a deep hypnotic state, just let yourself listen carefully to everything I say to you …
It’s going to happen automatically … So you don’t need to think about that now … And you will have no conscious control over what happens …
The muscles in and around your eyes will relax all by themselves as you ...

As soon as you are ready to go into a deep hypnotic state, you will close your eyes and begin inhaling deeply and exhaling slowly … (Pause and observe a moment)

Each time you inhale and exhale you can become more aware of the natural rhythms of your body and the feelings of comfort that develop ...

INSTRUCTIONS TO HYPNOTIST
This induction (or deepening) technique requires that the hypnotist gauge the pace of the suggestions to the response of the subject.
SPOKEN TO THE SUBJECT
I’m going to count from one up to twenty. As I do, a light, easy, pleasant feeling moves into your right hand and into your right arm. As I continue counting, that feeling grows stronger and stronger. Soon you’ll feel the first slight movement of your fingers, a twitching of the muscles. (At this point, ...

The subject is asked to raise an arm so that the hand is slightly above the head and given suggestions. There are a number of aspects of this induction which are worthy of special notice. First, the arm is placed in such a position that fatigue will eventually bring it down. The downward movement is tied into going “down” into a “deep state of relaxation.” The harder the individual keeps fighting to hold it up, the more he ...

SPOKEN TO THE SUBJECT
Raise and stiffen you arm. Make a fist. (Help subject achieve this position, then let go) That’s good. Just like a steel bar, stiff and powerful. So stiff and rigid and so powerful that the more you try to lower or bend your arm, the stiffer and tighter it becomes. Try to lower or bend your arm and find it locking stiff; stiff and rigid. The harder you try, the stiffer it becomes.
That’s fine. When I touch ...
