Have you ever heard of Conversational Hypnosis? It’s likely you haven’t. The reason is that the people who practice this type of hypnosis are not advertising for clients who are willing be hypnotized to stop smoking or lose weight, or become confident, or anything else you can learn to do with hypnosis. In fact, the people who use conversational hypnosis hope you never find out they used it, or you might get a little angry.
Many sales people are very familiar with conversational hypnosis, but it is also consciously, and sometimes unconsciously, used by those who seem to always get what they want. The people who are successful at conversational hypnosis are the people you believe in. For some reason you just trust them, and whatever they say seems to be the right thing. There is a natural ability that some people have that makes conversational hypnosis an everyday thing. (which is why I said they could be using it unconsciously), but for most people, it takes practice.
Unlike regular hypnosis, where one person is put into a trance while the other person speaks softly and/or asks questions, Conversational Hypnosis occurs when two people are just talking to each other, or so it seems.
Actually, one person is doing most of the talking, and the other seems to be listening and agreeing.
Cleverly, the main person talking is doing so in a way that influences the listener to follow their lead. They use their tone of voice along with what they say to influence another person’s decision. A professional at this type of conversation knows when you are going to say ‘yes’ or ‘no.’ And, if they feel a ‘no’ coming on, they will immediately change your mind before you even realize that you were going to object. Not only that, but they can even make you forget that you originally had objections, until the only thing left for you to do is buy, or agree that they’re right and then wonder what happened later.
If you talk with your hands, or use basic body language, you can be persuaded very easily by a conversational hypnotist because they are very good at reading this language; it’s a lot easier to read than just trying to determine what a person is saying.
So, what are the chances that you have ever been the victim of this type of hypnosis? Well, have you ever had what’s called buyers remorse - where you went to buy one thing, and somehow bought something much more expensive than you ever thought you would, and just didn’t know what made you make that expensive purchase. On your way home, did you ever find yourself trying to convince yourself, or figure out how to tell your spouse or significant other that this was a good purchase, even though you now don’t believe it yourself? Then, you were probably the victim of Conversational Hypnosis.
This happens all too often, and its not a good feeling when you figure it out. However, if you know a few simple facts, you can be in control at all times. Then, you can be confident in your yes or no decision, and either stick with it, OR, make these people do what you want for a change!
