Lesson 14
1. Authoritarian technique:
The Authoritarian technique also known as classical hypnosis, is a very overt and direct and at times my seem like a heavy handed technique of hypnosis. The therapist is in charge, the subject follows the instructions exactly as they are stated, there is no suggestion. The subject is told what to do step by step with the therapist stating the words you will, experience, you will relax, you will. For some clients they need this firm but gentle guidance so their minds do not wander.
2. Permissive technique:
The Permissive technique also known as the indirect technique relies much more on the hypnotist suggesting to the hypnotic subject that he or she is to do this or do that rather than directing him or her to do so. The hypnotic subject is assured through the structuring of the language used in making a suggestion, that he or she has the right to choose whether or not to comply with the hypnotist suggestion. The words release, let go, allow this are used in a less stringent manner.
3. Monotone voice:
The monotone voice is a flat tone that drones on and on. There are people who have a voice that can lull you into a trace state. The monotone voice can be excellent for helping clients to unwind and to turn their attention inwards, because there is nothing distracting or diverting. This technique is like giving commands in a soft manner.
4. Rhythmic or singsong voice:
The rhythmic voice creates a peaceful atmosphere and lulls the listener into a trance. Certain words are emphasized during the process to sweet talk the person into feeling more relaxed. Words are sometimes dragged out to get a special, needed effect. Using words in this manner helps to progressively relax the client.
5. Word distortion:
Words that are dragged out to get a special needed effect are particularly beneficial to use during a progressive relaxation induction helps your client to relax and move more deeply into a altered state.
6. Raised Pitch:
The emphasis is placed on a suggestion by changing your voice to a higher raised pitch, it the best way to bring a client back to the present, when ending a session. It is also used to enforce a post hypnotic suggestion, example, "and now you will quit smoking".
7. Uninterrupted Rhythm:
This rhythm is established through a use of connective words. Sometime the client can be gently pulled along deeper into the experience through the use of this technique. This technique can be done by linking sentences with the word and to create a continuous flow of words that fall into a rhythmic pattern. This helps to distract the client from any external sounds so you do not lose their attention.
8. Silent pause:
Some times as a healer you must create a silent pause, this allows your client to respond to a suggestion you made. Like when you tell your client to close their eyes, and take a deep breath in through the nose and out through the mouth. Pauses must be used throughout the relaxation induction and it is essential to allow the client time to follow your instructions for a successful session.
