subject: Covert Hypnosis Can Help Others [print this page] When most people think of mind control they think of very selfish behaviors that only benefit the one exerting the control. It may even sound sinister, as if using techniques to influence the thoughts and actions of others will always have a negative basis and result.
While this is very valid, it is not exclusively true. By using the techniques of covert hypnosis, many hypnotherapists are offering therapy that is helping people overcome fears, bad habits, and health problems.
The Power of Conversational Hypnosis, the latest and most comprehensive home hypnosis course offered by expert hypnotherapist and life coach Igor Ledochowski, is a program designed to give people the power to control others using covert forms of hypnosis.
These techniques influence the thoughts, emotions, and actions of others completely without their knowledge, hence "covert," which allows the control to happen largely without resistance. In his program, Ledochowski explains that a hypnotic trance is actually a very natural state that people enter into frequently. He also points out that a mild degree of mind control is used almost constantly. Watching TV commercials, news feeds, speeches or public service announcements all open you up to mind control.
You may not like to consider yourself someone that is manipulated at all, much less as easily as by the media or political figures. However, each time you buy a product you saw a commercial for, or link a candidate to a specific place or concept, you have fallen under the effects of mind control.
These methods can absolutely be used for evil. An example has circulated of an Italian thief that utilized conversational hypnosis to convince cashiers to willingly and fearlessly hand him the money from their drawers and just let him walk away.
Some have even suggested that the horrors of cults and genocide are the result of particularly powerful hypnotism controlling the thoughts and behaviors of those they considered to be their minions. Of course, these are just extreme examples of something falling in to the wrong hands.
They however, do prove the potential power of these methods. By harnessing the influential powers of covert hypnotic techniques, many hypnotherapists are doing good for people for whom other therapies have not worked.
Hypnosis has been proven effective in the treatment of obesity, smoking, insomnia, drug addiction, alcoholism, and compulsive disorders. By influencing the thoughts and feelings of the subjects, and planting suggested behaviors in replacement of the destructive ones, hypnotherapists have been able to break damaging cycles and bring healing to previously hopeless people.
The techniques described in this program allow a therapist to go into the patient's subconscious and alter thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors to bring about a healthy, beneficial change. Hypnosis has also risen as a form of pain control for the chronically ill and those undergoing surgery, recuperation, and even childbirth.
The implementation of hypnotic techniques has given the subjects the ability to endure long stretches of pain comfortably. These techniques provide relief, hope, and recovery where traditional treatments have failed.
