John Burton – Understanding Advanced Hypnotic Language Patterns

Description:

[1 – PDF]In this new volume, the author provides more depth and also elaborates on the concepts that comprise hypnotic language. The core idea presented is that a person’s level of cognitive awareness significantly determines his functioning ability in life. In Hypnotic language, Burton shows therapists how to expand the client’s cognitive awareness, specifically, the cognitive and perceptual processes involved in meaning making. In doing so, the therapist is more able to identify the specific awareness limitations of the client and identify the specific cognitive perceptual ingredients that make up the client’s problem. Drawing on this insight, the hypnotherapist can then construct hypnotic language patterns that go right to the client’s issues, invoking positive change. Numerous case examples are presented that include client assessments and dynamics, selecting and constructing hypnotic language patterns and applying the language patterns in therapy.

Hypnosis coures

Hypnosis is a human condition involving focused attention, reduced peripheral awareness, and an enhanced capacity to respond to suggestiom.

There are competing theories explaining hypnosis and related phenomena.
Altered state theories see hypnosis as an altered state of mind or trance, marked by a level of awareness different from the ordinary state of consciousness.
In contrast, nonstate theories see hypnosis as, variously, a type of placebo effect, a redefinition of an interaction with a therapist or form of imaginative role enactment.

During hypnosis, a person is said to have heightened focus and concentration.
Hypnotized subjects are said to show an increased response to suggestions.
Hypnosis usually begins with a hypnotic induction involving a series of preliminary instructions and suggestion.
The use of hypnotism for therapeutic purposes is referred to as “”hypnotherapy””, while its use as a form of entertainment for an audience is known as “”stage hypnosis””.
Stage hypnosis is often performed by mentalists practicing the art form of mentalism.
