Notes On Hypnosis

The Milton Model relies on using vague language to help clients access unconscious thoughts and experiences, as explicit language can limit thought processes. It proposes generating a clear understanding of issues by using generalized terms for questioning to help clients uncover deeper feelings, beliefs, and details beneath experiences. The techniques aim to reach and retrieve unconscious information by helping clients enter an altered state of mind where actual experiences are stored.

The Milton Model relies essentially on skillful vagueness of the language. The fundamental principle of Milton Model is that a generalized use of the language and a wider scope will generate a clear, complete understanding of the problem at hand. On the other hand, limiting the scope of the thought process by using explicit language will result in exclusion of vital aspects of the issue and important concepts of the persons experience. The model lists down the type of patterns and parts of speech that must be used in order to help the client find the correct line of thought, and help him include all the actual details, feelings and beliefs that lie beneath an experience by using generic terms for questioning. These two books are described to have formed the foundation of the Milton Model, which proposes using vague language in order to help the client reach the depths of his unconscious mind rather than wander about and restrict his thoughts on a conscious level. The techniques employed by the Milton Model are most commonly used for reaching into the unconscious depths of the mind, where the actual information of an experience is stored, and then retrieving this information by helping the client reach an altered state of mind. The Milton Model used in euro!linguistic "rogramming suggests that a conscious mind will create resistance to any authoritative statements made by the therapist using euro!linguistic training. Therefore, it is not feasible to reach the unconscious mind by using conscious commanding instructions. #y using statements that are more open in nature, include metaphors, present new opportunities or contain contradictions, the therapist can reach the unconscious mind more easily. $t leaves room for thought for the client, who can then fill in appropriate details in the present gaps using their unconscious mind.

The client in this case may be unaware of the actual happening, as his unconscious mind has temporarily taken over, which resembles a kind of trance. The main reason behind using the unconscious mind to create a change in behavior is that a conscious mind will not heed to the suggestions of the therapist because of the persons tendency to exhibit resistance. %ith the aid of indirect suggestions, the therapist can cause the unconscious mind to be actively involved in the therapeutic process. This immersion can be called a state of trance, and is so common that we generally do not recognize entering this hypnotic experience. $n such cases, our attention is captured by the activity, either with some question of through an unusual interesting experience. http&''conversational!hypnosis.com'articles'a().html

Hypnotic words are another type of hot word that are specifically designed to cause a person to begin to enter a trance or altered state of mind. As you will see these are words that can be used in absorbing attention, bypassing critical factors, creating unconscious responses and using unconscious responses. These words can also be used to elegantly recreate experiences, express ideas in a hypnotic way and will create a smooth language for you to engage in your conversations. When you use a hypnotic word in conversation with a person they are required to access the experience that goes with the word you have said, at least to some degree. Their brain will unconsciously do this in order to really define the word you used. After they do this they can put the word and its meaning into the context of the statements you are ma ing. !or example if you use the word "tired the person you are tal ing to will ta e that word out of the statements you made and access the emotion or feeling that defines for them. This is the only way they will really understand it the meaning it has for them.

These are words that imply a fixation of attention and will always activate the neurology inside a person to begin a ind of trance response. Hypnotic words are similar to words li e fixation, curiosity, focus and mesmeri#ed$ any word that has the same meaning or connotation as these words will more than li ely fall into the category of a hypnotic word. %t is imperative as a conversational hypnotist that you build a strong library of these words to have and use as you need them. As you are learning to use hypnotic words you will find that you can use them in layers li e many of the other concepts we have discussed. When a hypnotic word is used alone there is a possibility that it will start the process of inducing a trance, however this is no guarantee. However if you ta e the time to practice the words and add them into inductions they will become very powerful in capturing the themes of your conversation. This can be done repeatedly and will create an enormous impact in your hypnosis. The more you can get used to using hypnotic words in different instances the more opportunities your sub&ect will have to access the experiences you are ta ing them into. This is a powerful way to layer hypnotic words. The repetition that is created will give a variety of experiences and emotions to access while still using the hypnotic words to induce trances. These conversations will be memorable and easy to trigger for your sub&ects if the environment is right. However other words such as fixation or attention can be used in many different instances and stories for intensification purposes. 'ou will also easily be able to use hypnotic words in bypassing the critical factor and activating unconscious responses. Spontaneous is a great word to use in bypassing the critical factor. (ust the very meaning of the word implies that you will be

bypassing any rational thought about the word or idea that is attached to it. )ince the meanings of words are the emotion we incorporate with them the meaning of this word itself will simply slip a suggestion right past the critical factor and into the unconscious mind. The word spontaneous also creates an unconscious response in itself, so now you have ta en care of two steps in one with simply using one hypnotic word*
