Igor-trained hypnotists can rattle off the 4-Stage Hypnotic Protocol in their sleep.
In case you forgot, it goes like this:
Stage 1: Absorb Attention
Stage 2: Bypass The Critical Factor
Stage 3: Activate An Unconscious Response
Stage 4: Lead Unconscious To Desired Outcome
Which of the four steps above could you skip and still put someone in a deep hypnotic trance and do change work?
Take a moment before you answer…
…

…
Guess what?
You can NOT skip even one of those steps.
If you do, you can forget about hypnotizing your subject. You’ll fail.

I like to always include post-hypnotic suggestions that reinforce the trance suggestions, for example”every time you see the color green, the green grass or the green leaves on a tree, or ……every time you see the color white, like the white color of your eyes, or the white color of your teeth, snow, or a white piece of paper, or even the white stripe on the road while you’re driving you __________________ “(feel confident about being a non-smoker, have the overwhelming urge to remain smoke free, remember you are now a non-smoker, are now even more committed to being a non-smoker , etc.)
