As the art of hypnosis is a subtle, skillful practice that involves specific language, body language and unconscious sub-communication, the skilled hypnotist has many hypnosis techniques up their proverbial sleeves.
…the hypnotic gaze induction being one of them.
And as this type of hypnotic induction can be used in any situation, it’s incredibly useful (not to mention, kinda cool) – meaning becoming well-versed in its finer intricacies is well worth your while.

Oh my goodness! Hugh lennon??!
I saw you at scarborough early 80s. You Inspired me to take up hypnotherapy!
Have you not found that some ladies find being stared at so intently, disconcerting? Have you not also found that the pre chat is a very simple way of preparing the client whichever method you use. 🙂 not going straight into the stare, procedure?
Hi Terry
Thank you for your question.
I think you may have misunderstood the purpose of this idea. First of all, whether you are talking to a man or a woman, you are quite right that direct STARING can make people feel uncomfortable. Their gender makes no difference. Some people have a lower threshold than others when it comes to being looked at in general!
The solution to this comes in two parts:
1. FRIENDLY gazing tends to be more acceptable than a hostile or flat stare. So the H+ concept is crucial with this method. This alone can make many situations much smoother so that no damaging discomfort arises.
2. You can periodically BREAK eye contact to remain within the bounds of social acceptability. Of course each time you break eye contact you also LESSEN the intensity of the effect. So the trade off is that you build up less POSITIVE tension for the trance as well. The balance of how much discomfort you cause before inducing the trance really depends on the person and the situation. When you get it right, then the trance that follows is easy to get and runs deep. When you get it wrong, you break rapport and the person just wants to leave!
So, yes, you must be careful with this technique not to do it too much or at the wrong times. And I agree with you, the preparation conversation absolutely makes the whole process go more smoothly!
All the best

Hey,guys!I’ve been practicing the fine art of hypnosis for over 35 years,but maybe you can answer a question:
I’m also trained in CPR/AED,so should I have an AED standing by in case disaster does strike?
Hi
Thank you for your question. I am not sure why you would need to perform CPR or use a defibrillator when doing hypnosis on someone. Hypnosis is not dangerous and unless you suggest something traumatic should not trigger any kind of heart issues. The suggestions you would offer along with the Hypnotic Gaze should be soothing, pleasant and calming overall – something which would reduce the strain on the heart not increase it!
So in case your question was serious, I would say: no need. There is to my knowledge no correlation or causality between the use of hypnosis and any pre-existing heart condition. Feel free to research the studies on hypnosis for yourself of course!
All the best

If you’re doing hypnosis and expecting a ‘disaster that might happen’, you’ve got the wrong idea about hypnosis and should go try doing yoga or something. Hypnosis is not for you!
Sorry, the above message was to wildcat above
Great info graphic. What is the success rate of this and how difficult/long to master? as a ratio of general population?
Cheers!
Hi Saby! Hypnosis is not an exact science, so how long it will take you to master it varies from one person to another. It also takes practice and dedication among other things.
I love this induction. It is surefire irresistible induction to trance anyone through the floor.
Any way to actually speak to someone as opposed to just email?
Thanks,
