What Is Hypnosis?

Part of thelearn hypnosis mini course

What IS Hypnosis Exactly?

Hypnosis is powerful, but its often very misunderstood.

Nearly everyone who Ive taught seems to come in with a different definition of what

hypnosis is.

People have disagreed upon the meaning of hypnosis for centuries.

Even the two pioneers of hypnosis in the 20th century couldnt come to an agreement!

Milton Erickson, the great pioneer of indirect hypnosis, often used this definition: a state in

which the subject shows increased responsiveness to ideas.

Dave Elman, the key figure in rapid, direct hypnosis and regression work, called hypnosis the

acceptance of suggestion and the establishment of acceptable, selective thinking

I look at hypnosis as the influence of thesubconscious mind.

Hypnosis is simple, natural and powerful. Nothing to freak out about!

http://keystothemind.com/hypnosis-inductions

Hypnosis Inductions

The element of hypnosis I get asked about the most is instant and rapid inductions!

Hypnosis is a rich and complex field, but when youre doing simple street hypnosis it tends to

follow the simple structure of

1: Introduction / pre-talk

2: Induction / deepener

3: Suggestion / phenomena

4: Suggestion removal and awakener

Heres a video which summarizes the entire Street Hypnosis process called 5 Steps toInstant Street Hypnosis

When I first started out nothing seemed quite so exciting as being able to hypnotize pretty

much anyone in just a few seconds.

The basic principle for doing an instant hypnosis induction is

1: Verbally set up (ie describe what youre doing

2: Physically set up and get them used to responding to your instructions

3: Release the trigger (ie move your hand away in the example above)

4: Give the sleep command

5: Deepen

Here are a few examples which you can adapt to fit that structure

(BTW Im using the word subject to describe the person youre working with. I cant think of

a better word. If youre a therapist, theyre your client. If youre a stage hypnotist, theyreyour volunteer).

The Hand Drop Induction

1. Sit your subject down

2. Have them press down upon one of your hands palm on palm

3. Lift your hand up against theirs to encourage them to press hard

4. Move your hand away suddenly, as their hand drops and their enter shock firmly give your

trigger (ie Sleep!) and begin your dee pener.

The Arm Pull Induction

1. Sit your subject down or stand them securely and ensure they will not fall

2. Take a hold of their hand with yours, as if you were shaking hands

3. Give a firm but not violent or painful jerk to the arm, and then immediately commandsleep and move into a deepener, always ensuring that they do not fall. You may want to use

your other arm to secure their neck and head to prevent whiplash as you do this.

The Magnetic Hands Induction

1. Have your subject hold both their arms out about a foot apart, with their palms facing

each other.

2. Tell your subject to imagine their hands were magnetic plates, being attracted to each

other and being pulled closer and closer together

3. As your subjects hands get closer tell them that the moment their hands touch they will

immediately enter a deep trance.

4. Just before their hands touch rapidly (but not roughly!) clap their hands

together and then command sleep and enter a deepener.

The hand to face induction

1. Ask your subject to hold out their hand in front of them

2. Rapidly take hold of this hand and move it up in front of their face

3. Tell them that their hand is going to begin moving towards their face and the moment it

touches their face they will immediately enter a deep trance

4. Continue to loop this suggestion and the instant their hand touches their face rapidly pull

their arm downwards and command sleep!

The Hypnotic Handshake Induction (Also Called the Handshake Interrupt)


4/18

4

Simply interrupt a normal handshake and lead into either the arm pull or hand to face

induction above.

The Handclasp Induction

1. Have the subject clasp their hands in front of them, very tightly

2. Ask them to imagine their hands are glued together to the point where they cannot come

unstuck

3. When their hands are successfully glued together push their hands

downwards firmly and command sleep, and enter a deepener.

The eye lock induction

1. Have the subject close their eyes, and simply relax them to the point where they just

wont open (should take less than 30 seconds) Then deepen.

The Stiff Arm Induction

1. Have the subject hold out one of their arms

2. Have them move all the tension from their mind and their body, and all their doubts about

hypnosis into that arm, making it stiff as a steel bar, tight, rigid and unbendable

3. When they have confirmed that the arm is unbendable, say that when you push down on

it they are going to release all that tension and enter a deep state of hypnosis.

4. Firmly grasp their arm as you command release or sleep and loosen it until all the

tension is gone, then deepen quickly to stabilize the incredibly deep state you have created.

Deepeners

As soon as you hypnotize someone, its essential to keep talking!

No matter what happens, just keep talking. Even if they open their eyes and LAUGH after theinduction just keep talking!

Youll be amazed by how much you can get away with if you act confident.

Your deepener is just an old fashioned way of saying anything you say to people AFTER

youve done your induction but BEFORE the suggestion phase.

Here are a few simple examples to give you some ideas:

The Standard 10-1 Deepener


5/18

5

I am now going to count from 10 to 1, and when I reach 1 you will be in a deep state of

trance, easily responding to all suggestions and feeling good and comfortable as you

continue to drift and go deeper. 10, beginning to relax now, 9, going even deeper, 8 deeper

and deeper, 7, focusing your mind, 6, feeling peaceful and calm, 5 really noticing how easy it

is to just allow yourself to drift 4 feel yourself totally relax as we go down to 3, and know

that at 1 lies the deepest state of relaxation, 2 already in deep trance, and 1, deep trancenow, feeling good and preparing to easilyaccept all suggestions given.

The zero deepener

In a moment I will count from 5 to 0, and when I begin counting, I want you to see that zero

way off out there in the distance. As I begin counting I want you to begin moving toward that

zero, getting closer and closer with every number I count, and on the other side of that zero is

a wonderful and deep state of trance. 5, getting even closer to that big, powerful zero, 4

relaxing, going deeper, feeling good as we go to 3, closer and closer to deepest trance, 2 that

zero is so close now, 1 right in front of that 0 and 0, through that 0 and out into the otherside, noticing the changes this deepest trance brings.

Simple Trigger Deepener

Every time I touch you on the shoulder you will relax more and more, andgo deeper into a

trance, focusing on my voice and noticing as the feeling you re beginning to experience

intensifies now (tap) deeper, (tap) deeper still (tap, tap, tap) all the way down, and

continuing to feel good and go deeper (tap)

Three Keys You Need to Make Inductions Work

There are three key elements that you need if you want to make your inductions work.

If youve been struggling to get this stuff working this is the missing ingredient!

http://keystothemind.com/hypnotic-phenomena

Hypnotic PhenomenaSo Youve Hypnotized Someone Now What?

The part of the hypnotic process where the real magic happens is hypnotic phenomena.

This is where you give your hypnotic suggestions which create the result your after (either

helping them overcome a problem if youre a trained therapist, o r simply making them feel

good!

You can make this very dramatic and powerful! The key is to always keep it positive.

You will have seen stage hypnotists or hypnotists on TV this is what they do.

Hypnotic phenomena is ideal to WOW a crowd, and also to show people just how powerful

the mind really is.

(On some of our advanced courses youll learn how to use hypnotic phenomena to createrapid, positive transformations)

When youre doing hypnotic phenomena, essential you are changing someones perception

of reality!

Now dont freak out. We explore those ideas in our advanced courses and theyre very

powerful, but for now lets keep it nice and simple:

How to Give Hypnotic Suggestions Video

Heres a video I made AGES ago on how to give hypnotic suggestions.

I sound as young as can be, but the info is still valid and it contains everything you need:

Around the same time as I recorded that video, I wrote a short eBook called The Street

Hypnotists Handbook

Its no longer around BUT Ive copied the section for you below on hypnotic suggestion and

phenomena.

(Yup, you caught me! Some of the info in the inductions section came from this book too!

Well, copying from myself isnt really cheating, is it)

Here are some ideas to get you started about what you can do with people when you have

them in hypnosis. These are only the very basic suggestions, as more advanced ones will be

covered on future lessons. I tend to link all suggestions I give to the subject feeling good, and

being happy and successful.

For example with an arm levitation and as your arm lifts you can feel good knowing that it is

a signal from your unconscious telling you that you can be successful, you can achieve your

goals and you truly can be happy in your own life. This helps to make the hypnosisexperience more powerful and positive for the subject.

Once again these are just some very basic ideas for simple things you can do with hypnosis.

Please be sure to think of your own, and adapt them to be more suited for the occasion you

are in, i.e. to do things that make them more entertaining, inspiring, educational, or

transformational depending on the circumstances.

Always be sure that you respect your subject, and never do anything to put them in any

danger or to make them feel any pain or fear. When leading into a suggestion it helps to say

something like and you will not be scared, you will in fact be inspired and motivated by this

demonstration of the incredible power of your own mind, and feel comfortable with what

your unconscious is showing you.

As well as being a matter of ethics and safety, youll also find that this increases the

effectiveness of your suggestions. Remember, what you can do with hypnosis is virtually

unlimited. Do not restrict yourself to what I share here. Also make sure you undo all thesesuggestions when you are finished!

Arm levitation

This is a great deepener and convincer / tester, and is also useful in piggybacking other

suggestions and as a platform to lead into more advanced phenomena.

Have them imagine that one of their arms is becoming light, very light, as if

1000 strong helium balloons were tied to their wrist and pulling their arm up, and their arm

is beginning to rise higher and higher and higher. As their arm rises give suggestions about itmeaning they are going deeper into trance etc, and use it as a platform for other suggestions

Eye Lock

Can be used as an induction, as mentioned earlier, but also a great deepener and convincer.

Simply have them imagine their eyes are relaxed to the point that they simply wont open, as

if they were totally glued shut.

Hand Stick

Place their hand on either a table or a wall and tell them that their hand is stuck, tightly

locked down and firmly attached to the surface, glued there and locked to the point where,

no matter how hard they were to try and unstick it, it would simply stick tighter. This is both

an entertaining suggestion and useful for building toward advanced phenomena by

piggybacking other suggestions.

Amnesia

Have the subject forget their name, or age or a particular number. Use a reference

experience such as the tip of the tongue phenomenon (having a word or something you

should know on the tip of your tongue but not being able to find it) to prepare their mind,

and then use direct and indirect suggestion to have them forget what the number, name

word or thing that you want forgotten.

Remember to give their name (or whatever it was) back at the end!

Hypnotic Laughter

Tell them that something normal, like a book or a hat or every word another friend says etc

is hilariously funny, the funniest thing they have ever come across, and they will laugh

harder and harder and harder every time they hear / look at it.

Hypnotic Journey

Take them on a hypnotic journey through their enhanced imagination, either with you

guiding them along or their unconscious creating the story and you merely enhancing it with

your questions.

This is a great opportunity for you to explore unconscious creativity, and for you to help

them change by way of metaphor.

OK this is important ready up onSAFETYbefore you finish this course.

PS

Yeah so those three essential keys I mentioned before.

Do you need them to get your hypnotic phenomena and suggestions to work?

You bet.

http://keystothemind.com/hypnosis-safety

Hypnosis Safety

Part of the learn hypnosis mini course

Hypnosis is generally a natural and benign process.

BUT before you do it, you should definitely understand the essentials of safety just to be

on the well, safe side!

Awakeners

Whilst its not possible to get stuck in hypnosis, every hypnotist needs to know a good

awakener.

This is how you emerge or remove someone from hypnosis.

(BTW I dont see hypnosis as a state and even if it were, it certainly isnt sleep but thats

advanced stuff youll get into later.)

Every awakener must accomplish three things

1: Bring the person into a normal, positive state of awareness

2: Remove ALL suggestions that you have given (except for feeling good etc, and obviously

this isnt relevant for hypnotherapists)

3: Leave them feeling great!

I dont believe in learning hypnosis by memorizing scripts BUT for the awakener make an

exception.

You dont have to use this one, just make sure it involves all three elements above.

Key: Your awakener must be said with passion and Energy!

Heres a sample awakener:

I in a moment Im going to count from 1 to 3. When I reach three you will be fully awake,

alert and completely back to the room feeling wonderful. Everything will be completely back

to normal and you will feel great! 1, coming up slowly now, 2 eyes wide open now and feel

good, 3 take a deep breath in and feel great, totally back to the room, awake, alert, aware,

feeling refreshed and fantastic!

Remember passion and energy!

Heres what you need to read now:

Safety How to Avoid Mishaps and Disasters

http://keystothemind.com/2008/06/safety-how-to-avoid-hypnotic-mishaps-and-

disasters.html

Safety! How To Avoid Hypnotic Mishaps and Disasters!

There are several myths and misconceptions which make people think that hypnosis is

unsafe, predominantly among them is the idea that poorly or vindictively performed

hypnosis can cause psychological harm to the subjects.

Provided that we have a basic understanding of hypnosis, and exercise common sense, this

really isnt a major concern (unless being careless or causing people harm is your intention,

in which case stop reading this blog now!)

There are, though, several things which do threaten the safety of our subjects in an everyday

setting, and as hypnotists it is our responsibility to take care of these.

Perhaps the vice that we have to be the most wary of is falls.

When you are doing hypnosis, especially when you are using instant inductions, or

hypnotizing someone whilst they are standing, it is very possible that out hypnotees will

have a rather unpleasant fall, which will not only snap them right out of trance, cause them

great pain and possibly even send lawyers knocking at your door, but it just isnt good

practice to let this happen.

Of course, as hypnosis is not sleep, it can have different effects, such as a long lasting

headache.

This is not serious and can easily be removed with suggestion, but of course it is ideal to

prevent it, and the best way to do this is to make sure your wake up is gentle and

effective.

In my opinion your wake up procedure should be sure to accomplish the following:

1. Return the subject to complete alertness2. Remove any suggestions with the exception of those given for therapy and generative

change or carefully placed post hypnotic suggestions

3. Avoids a hypnotic hang over4. Leaves the subject feeling fantastic!

Heres an example Now I am going to count from 1 to 3, and when I reach three your eyes

will open and you will feel wonderful and become fully alert and aware, returning to a

normal happy state of mind. Realize that from now on everything returns to normal and

goes back to the way it was before you were hypnotized, except, that you will feel simply

fantastic, sleep wonderfully when you go to bed, and wakeup at your normal time feeling

refreshed, relaxed, alert, simply fantastic. 1, coming up slowly now, 2 beginning to feel alert

and energetic, ever muscle in your body every cell in your brain buzzing with healthy energy

and 3 eyes open fully alert feeling wonderful!

Now that was a very basic example, as you gain more experience you will be able to trim it

down easily and make it more powerful and effective, adding your own personal touches,

but for now that shows you the sort of thing you should be aiming for. Make sure they

return feeling great. Not only is this ethically decent, but it appears good to onlo okers as

well.

If you are performing street hypnosis on strangers there are a few more ways bad luck can

bite you. I wont write much on this, but here are a few quick points:

Be sure that rushed passers by cant collide with you, your subject or your came ra man,

make sure you check that you are not hypnotizing people with epilepsy or other severe

dysfunctions, and if you are hypnotizing children make sure you have their parents OK.

The final thing i will warn you about is abreactions, these are so incredibly rare that i have

never witnessed one, but they do happen.

An abreaction is basically when someone has an intense emotional reaction to something

they experience while in hypnosis, this can result in obvious signs like hysterical laughter,

crying and even screaming.

The best way to reduce the likelihood of this happening is to check that your subject has no

particular fears, phobias or issues that may interfere before beginning, and to avoid

potentially risky exercises like regressions before you gain more experience.


12/18

Realistically 99/100 things will go fine, but it only takes that one bad fall or other incident to

really play havoc with your hypnosis career. Take to heart what you have read here, and

always do what you can to keep your subjects safe.

Abreactions Do Happen How to Deal with Them Properly

http://keystothemind.com/2009/09/abreactions-do-happen-how-to-deal-with-them-

properly.html

Abreactions Do Happen; How To Deal With Them Properly

Imagine this:

You are hypnotizing someone, in front of mates, on stage, in the clinic, wherever.

It is all going well, and then suddenly, all hell breaks loose.

The subject starts crying and screaming violently. They totally lose control and you have no

idea whats going on.

This is rare, but it happens.

Its called an abreaction.

Seriously, This may be the most important hypnosis article you will ever read!

Read this carefully, and learn it well, as when that abreaction does actually happen, when

the peat moss hits the fan, you will be damn glad you knew what you were doing!

What Is An Abreaction?

An abreaction is an intense emotional response to a hypnotic suggestion brought about by

spontaneous regression to a previously suppressed traumatic memory.

So, you are hypnotizing someone, and for some reason a traumatic memory of the past is

uncovered, and all the emotions associated with this memory come flooding free.

How To Prevent Abreaction

Sometimes abreactions just happen spontaneously. This is rare, but it does occur.

If you follow the guidelines below, then you will learn how to nip this problem in the bud

and seriously reduce the likely hood of an abreaction. We cant eliminate them altogether

though, so keep reading after this.

Do not do regression.
http://keystothemind.com/2009/09/abreactions-do-happen-how-to-deal-with-them-properly.htmlhttp://keystothemind.com/2009/09/abreactions-do-happen-how-to-deal-with-them-properly.htmlhttp://keystothemind.com/2009/09/abreactions-do-happen-how-to-deal-with-them-properly.htmlhttp://keystothemind.com/2009/09/abreactions-do-happen-how-to-deal-with-them-properly.htmlhttp://keystothemind.com/2009/09/abreactions-do-happen-how-to-deal-with-them-properly.htmlhttp://keystothemind.com/2009/09/abreactions-do-happen-how-to-deal-with-them-properly.htmlhttp://keystothemind.com/2009/09/abreactions-do-happen-how-to-deal-with-them-properly.htmlhttp://keystothemind.com/2009/09/abreactions-do-happen-how-to-deal-with-them-properly.htmlhttp://keystothemind.com/2009/09/abreactions-do-happen-how-to-deal-with-them-properly.html


13/18

Until you are properly trained in clinical hypnosis, do not attempt age regression work.

You never know what traumas you may unearth.

Now, personally I feel that regression is actually safe IF you do it right.

If you make it explicit in your suggestion giving that they will regress to a specific positive

experience, then the chance of uncovering a repressed trauma is limited.

STILL

Do not take regressions lightly.

This is one of the very few areas of hypnosis which can actually cause people long term harm

if done carelessly. So as a rule avoid regressions until you are qualified and capable to deal

with them properly and prevent and respond to whatever they may cause.

Do Not Attempt Anything Beyond Your Skill and Training :

In many ways, hypnosis is like driving.

It is powerful, useful, and can get a huge amount done.

But, do something outside your ability, and you can veer off the road faster than you can say

sleep!

Avoid hypnotizing people with known psychiatric disorders, and avoid doing hypnosis for

heavy duty therapeutic reasons until you are properly trained.

Dont get me wrong here, I LOVE experimenting with hypnosis.

Trying new things, pushing the envelope, and discovering what we can about the human

mind.

This is great, and a brilliant way to learn, but always take hypnotic safety very very seriously.

If you have any doubts regarding the safety of the subject, then do not do it.

The Standard Method For Dealing With Abreaction

This is the standard method of dealing with abreaction.

It works well, so make sure you learn it properly.

After this, well take it to the next level and show you how to deal with an abreaction like a

pro.

The standard method involves three very simple parts.

1: Stay Calm


14/18

14

You are the hypnotist. You are in control.

No matter what is going on in your own head you need to breath deep, be calm, and be

confident.

Handle this like a professional, confidently and congruently.

As Douglas Adams says, Dont Panic! Stay calm, and sort it out smoothly.

If you are struggling to be heard over the clamor of the panicking subject, then stay calm,

use repetition and an authoritative yet reassuring tone.

2: Avoid Physical Contact

Not only could physical contact seriously freak out the person experiencing an abreaction, it

could also create an anchor to the negative state. Obviously you want to avoid this, as thelast thing you want is all the emotional baggage they are dumping on you to be released

again the next time someone holds their wrist of places a hand on their shoulder.

3: The Magic 9 Words

Gerald Kein is the source of these 9 words which have now become very famous among

hypnotists. They work well and will more often than not be all you need.

Say them calmly and confidently.

The scene fades and you tend to your breathing.

Simple.

These 9 words should bring them from the trouble state they are in, and pull them back into

reality. However, that is not always enough.

How To Make Sure It Is Done Right

The possible trouble with the above is that it doesnt really go after the cause of the

abreaction.

Now we do not want to start doing therapy here (unless you are properly trained and in an

appropriate context) but we do want to firmly shut the lid on the memories causing the

abreaction and safely ensure that they go back to where they were beforehand.

How do we do this?

We talk directly to the unconscious mind.

We give process instructions that explain exactly what it needs to do in order to ensure thewellbeing of the hypnotic subject.


15/18

15

We explain to the unconscious mind that a memory has been revealed to the conscious

mind before the conscious mind is ready, and explain to the unconscious mind that it must

continue to protect them from this memory until the conscious mind is ready to deal with it

on its own, (otherwise this may create dependence of therapists etc).

Use language like protected and stored rather than locked or imprisoned whendescribing the revived memory, otherwise you may worsen the problem.

Heres an example:

I am now going to talk directly to your unconscious mind.

In the past you have been doing a good job keeping (name) safe from these memories.

It is important that you continue doing this. Store these memories away back in the safe

place until such time that the conscious mind is ready to deal with them on (his / her) own.

Keep the conscious mind safe and protected, and remove from it all memory of this incident. Leave to the conscious mind only what it is capable of processing on its own right

now, hide the rest until such time as it is fully ready.

So now as you sit there, the memories are stored back away, and the scene fades, you tend

to your breathing, and emerge only at the rate and speed that everything can be restored to

its ideal, healthy balance. Everything is well, and you return feeling fine

The memory is returned to the safe place where it was before, and amnesia is created for

the abreaction itself so the subject does not have the added trauma of that experience. They

are returned to a healthy state of affairs with the unconscious mind looking after themproperly.

Often doing this can stop an abreaction before it starts, and prevent the memories from

being fully uncovered before the abreaction really begins. Make sure you have your wits

about you are always keeping a very close eye on the people you hypnotize, so if something

does begin to happen you can nip it in the bud.

Be sure your subject is totally fixed before you emerge them.

There are no absolutes

The one thing I am absolutely sure about is that nothing is absolute.

As you develop more confidence, always trust your unconscious.

Rely on what comes to you in the moment, and use these words and techniques as

guidelines only.

Get out there, have fun with hypnosis. Experiment and do some good in the world, knowingthat should the worst come to the worst, you know how to deal with it safely and

professionally.

Why Milton Erickson Hated NLP

Controversy Warning: While this is generally accepted wisdom,the odd NLP purist may not

agree with this post. Feel free to share your opinions in the comments section but also take

this with a grocery store attitude no matter your opinions, there will be useful elements,

so as The Band sang, Take what you need, and leave the rest.

Milton Erickson is probably the most famous hypnotist of all time.

Using elegant stories and artfully subtle techniques, he would seemingly miraculously curehis clients within ordinary conversations. His skills are already the stuff of legend.

Richard Bandler and John Grinder broke down his approach into a series of very precise

techniques, which form the backbone of NLP.

Youd think, logically, that since NLP shared Milton Ericksons skills with the world, and

brought him international fame, Erickson would at the very least be respectful of NLP.

The little spoken truth is that he hated it, and to his dying day he never forgave the NLP

founders for what they did.

Why?

The simple, explain away reason is that Milton Erickson was a medical doctor, a

psychiatrist, and he wanted to restrict the use of hypnosis to people in the medical

professions.

This is understandable, given the power of what he did, but the real reason (shared by manyof Ericksons students) is actually a lot deeper.

Before I tell you, I want to make a quick caveat.

I do NOT dislike NLP. In fact, I think it is a very useful and powerful discipline, if looked at in

the right away, however I share Milton Ericksons core objection.

When you look at NLP, you see a bunch of very cool, very swish techniques.

You see language patterns, the Milton Model, the meta model, anchoring, and lots of very

sneaky tricks.

If you have ever tried to use an NLP technique out in the real world, and found that it hasnt

quite worked, then the end of this story will solve that problem for you too.

You see, the NLP techniques are not themselves flawed, but they are lacking the crucial

missing element.

Imagine for a second one of your best friends, someone with who you have effortless, easy,

flowing conversations.

Imagine that someone else wanted to find out how you two have such incredible

conversations, and tried to break down your super sneaky conversational techniques, and

reduced every element of your discussion down to a few clever words and subtle gestures.

Theyd leave out the feeling in your voice, the laughter, the unique connection you two

share, the open intention, the intimacy, the trust, the real magic.

This is what has happened with NLP.

You see, Milton Erickson did NOT use the Milton Model and he definitely did NOT do whatwe now refer to as Ericksonian hypnosis.

These are just the surface level. The symptoms, not the cause, of the real success of Milton

H. Erickson.

What really made Ericksons techniques work was the sheer emo tional power behind what

he did.

The intense, powerful energy with which he was determined to help his clients at whatever

cost unleashed the full power of his unconscious resources, and was expressed in the

techniques that we now know.

NLP often looks just at the techniques, and is like trying to photocopy the Mona Lisa. The

colors may be in the right place, but the subtlety, the feeling, the magic will be lost.

While some attempt to quantify this down into specific techniques, you lose a lot when you

try and squash an unconscious process down into the tiny chunks your conscious mind is

capable of processing.

Unconscious tasks should generally be left to the unconscious.

So, with that, how do we then build ourselves up to the point where we naturally,

automatically and unconsciously do what works, so that this irresistible power exists within

everything you do?

This is what Ive spent the last 4 years and especially the last 18 months trying to figure

out.

I call this system Core Inner Game, because rather than being about a bunch of fragile

surface level techniques, its about growing yourself to the point where you dont need to do

the hard work and try and force the techniques to work for you you just do it naturally!

Youll get the opportunity to benefit from the thousands of hours of work Ive put into this in

just a couple of days.
