REPEAT THE INSTRUCTIONS INDUCTION
Overcome resistance repeat the instructions
OVERCOME RESISTANCE TO HYPNOSIS
Use the Repeat the Instructions induction to allow resistant clients to feel that they are still in control when going into trance. Similar to My Friend John induction, but without John.
This script is used where the client won’t go into trance because they fear losing control. It lets them go into trance at the pace that suits them. It gives them the feeling of being in control of what is happening. The person repeats the hypnotist’s words in their mind. This allows the illusion of control while actually going along with instructions to go into trance.
The words in italics are said in a way that the listener know to repeat them silently.
