Study The Strategy Of Covert Hypnosis

By George Turner


Young and old people often wish that they could learn the art of covert hypnosis. Some teenage students sit in classrooms staring intently at a teacher. They appear to be listening but may actually by wishing that they could influence the teacher to suddenly begin undressing, to the delight of the class. Instances of bizarre human behavior do exist but of course they may not be attributed to their real causes, which may or may not be hypnosis.

When viewed from fifty years of hindsight films from the Second World War era might seem to depict a whole nation behaving extraordinarily. People strut about, responding to signs and sounds in what seems to be an irrational manner. They cheer en mass and on cue when a demagogue addresses them and refer to him as though he is a god. Irrationally, intelligent people express hatred of others who were their countrymen a few months earlier. A nation seems to have been hypnotized.

Of course there are many similar instances recorded in history of human beings doing things en mass which seen suspiciously like hypnosis. However, there are distinctions between mob behavior and hypnotic behavior. Experts would be quick to point these out. They would probably explain too how learning and training are necessary before results can be expected.

The nature of hypnosis places considerable responsibility on those who master the art. Online training and books are available so that anyone with tenacity and determination can learn. It is possible that much can be explained about human actions in terms of hypnosis. It is a means of power that can be used for good or evil.

Some people may be able to wield hypnotic influence over others whilst hardly realizing their power but intentional hypnosis is more intense and powerful. In both forms rapport is an essential first phase. A person who comes on stage during a public performance and one who gently subsides under the lilt of conversation have willingness and cooperation in common.

In the case of covert hypnosis a subject may be seduced into collaboration by subtle means. The hypnotist might, for example, listen carefully to what the subject says, picking up cues about what delights the speaker. Then the hypnotic process begins without the subject being aware of it.

A fascinating process in literature is known as the suspension of disbelief. Although a reader knows that he is reading fiction he is seduced into experiencing the narrative as though it is real. A similar though more compelling process might occur in the hypnotic process as critical faculties are willingly aborted in the glow of satisfying rapport with a stranger.

The crucial phase of covert hypnosis is getting the subject to do something that he or she would not do under normal circumstances. Some wealthy and powerful men have been known to give up their families, careers and money for a mistress. This illustrates the power that one person may have over another when a rapport exists and critical judgment has been thrown out of the window.
