Acquire The Skill Of Covert Hypnosis

By George Turner


A man who fancied himself as a Lothario once dreamed that he could master the art of covert hypnosis. He imagined that he could seduce a string a beautiful women by engaging them in conversation, gaining their confidence and then commanding them to do his will. He might have succeeded in some cases. If so, his victims might never have known how or why the fell under what they thought was his charm. There are also instances of coquettes who have made men behave inexplicably, unless hypnosis can explain them.

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.

There are of course distinctions between mob behavior and hypnotic behavior. An important one is that a hypnotized individual cannot control himself. He is in a trance and has surrendered control to another. As in a dream the natural laws of the universe cannot be broken even if an individual tries. He may be commanded to walk upside down on a ceiling and will try to do that though he cannot defy the laws of gravity. This can be entertaining for onlookers.

Training and books on are available online. With dedicated application individuals might achieve surprising results. Many examples of aberrant and apparently inexplicable human behavior do exist. Conceivably much could be explained in terms of covert hypnosis that has remained unidentified

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.

In literature there is a process known as the suspension of disbelief. This is when a reader knowingly 'suspends' his awareness that he is reading fiction and imagines that he is experiencing real life. A writer must be skilled to achieve this state just as a hypnotist must be skilled to induce a state of willing participation in a subject. The reader and the subject must both set aside their critical awareness during the process.

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.
