Okay according to each or your styles and personalties, you Stage Hypnotist, if you could choose ONLY one stage Induction, which one would you choose and why?
1. Eriksonian Arm Levitation 2. Eye Fixation Technique 3. Palm "Magnetized" To Face I would choose no surprise here the Eriksonian Arm Levitation, as for me it works well. Who knows maybe you already do one of these. I think most do a variation of Eye Fixation (usually to a stage light), eyes closed, deep breathing, visualization, progressive bodily relaxation. That or Multiple Rapid Fire Inductions. Also what I mentioned above are deepeners. Anyway out of those popular 3 you would choose? Ed, (Eddini).

I like arm levitations on stage, but never use Ericksons passive and permissive style onstage. And so a directive levitation would be my choice. I do sometimes do the book/balloon as the induction finale test...

I like the Ormond McGill wording in his book. "Your Subconscious mind will choose the hand. You feel the fabric. You feel the fingers of both hands spreading. Right now the hand that your suvconcsious mind as chosen is starting to twich. Yes it's becoming light as a feather, lifting, lifting, lifting. Light as a feather, it'll lift all the way up to your face when it reaches your face your hand will plop down, and that causes you to go triple the times down into deep, deep hypnosis...etc." That's not his EXACT wording but I like it. Some will just go straight into "Your hand is lifting". My Hypnotherapist does that it works for me, BUT, I like to gradually build up to that. I agree and my Hypnotherapist agrees that my style is basically Paternal, but in a Maternal way. I'm not afraid to raise my voice and empathize certain words when I come to them. I've used all three I have a neat little 15 minute routine. My entire Induction takes 6-8 minutes or so. I get "Fat Hats (Tips)".
I start out with the palm, to face induction, but with MY PALM lowering towards their face. My hands is like a foot and a half above their head as I slowly (like 45 seconds) lower it towards their face. I say as it comes closer you relax more and more. Your eyes are starting to burn a little as you blink more rapidly staring into my palm, into my palm intensely as if you had X-Ray eyes and could see right through it. The closer it gets to your face the heavier your eyelids become. I touch their face and their eyes close. I then do 5 deep breaths with them with suggestions. I count from 100-95 with suggestions. After 95 I do a progressive bodt relaxation from head to feet. I then go for 94-90, with Suggestions as they see a beautiful beach scene. I then test for eye catalepsy. FRom there I do the arm levitation induction, BUT more as a deepener, and as a ideomotor test. From there ONE MORE deepening technique. I do the elevator on the 10th floor going to the zero floor. With each floor I VERY LIGHTLY push on each shoulder. Finally Zero. The elevator opens up but they're back on the beach with a huge 6 foot zero blown up. I have them step through it into "The Land Of Hypnosis". Also throughout the induction, I do the arm drops suggesting with each plop it send them twice as deep into hypnosis. I then do my routine which I'll post elsewhere. I will say this I ALWAYS start off with "Simple Amnesia" amnesia of a number (always 2) "11 Fingers", "3 Feet", "Counting Each Hand and Adding...12 Fingers". I do like 3 tests of "Post Hypnotic Cues", and "Horrible Smell" which at the end she realizes it's HER feet....lol. It's fun for all, Ed, (Eddini).

Hello.
Any method. Hypnosis is not methods. Hypnosis depends almost all on subjects. Therefore it is not the induction methods. It is who you select. Subjects who are easily hypnotized. |

Yes I agree 100% but still I'm sure we all have our favorite induction, just as our pre-induction, speeches should cover all the facts yet portray our personality. Of course you do the testing to see who is the most easily hypnotizable. Thanks, Ed.
