You have all seen it, you are watching a hypnotist and it seems like with a snap of his fingers the subject is under his control. And you think to yourself, boy I wish I had that power! You may not be able to have that power over someone but you can learn how to hypnotize someone quickly, with practice and confidence in what you are doing.
There are many different methods out there for quick hypnotism, but the handshake method is often the most talked about. It works because you confuse the person and have a window of opportunity because of that confusion to make them fall into a trance quickly. This confusion is caused by an interruption in their automatic behavior pattern, when you extend your hand they automatically do it in return without thinking and that is where you catch them off guard and "confuse" them.
You start off by talking to them normally and then mid conversation you change subjects, talking about something that opens them up to suggestion, like describing a day at the beach or a nice juicy steak. This opens them up to be receptive and you can then switch back to the main topic.
Then, while you are talking, stick out your hand as if you are going to shake their hand. Natural behavior will have them reach out theirs without thinking, when they do, instead of taking their hand; grab the wrist quickly but gently. Some people will then quickly say "sleep" and others turn the hand and guide up to their face, while calmly telling them to close their eyes and go into a nice deep sleep where they feel warm and safe. You have just confused them, interrupted their normal pattern and taken control.
Now in a trance you want to reassure them that they are in a deep peaceful sleep and will stay that way until you bring them back. Proceed with the session, asking or talking to them about whatever was either agreed on before hand or the session is about.
When it is time to wake them up, this can be done easily by either telling them you will count backward from five to one and on the count of one they will wake up feeling refreshed and alert. Or you can go a bit more slowly, counting while interspersing it with, you are waking up a bit more now, till they are fully awake.
Learning how to hypnotize someone is much easier than most may think if you have someone that is receptive and willing. Someone who doesn't believe or isn't willing is not likely to fall under any trance no matter how hard you try. But with willing participants and practice to build up your skill you will be able to hypnotize people easily and quickly.
