Self
Hypnosis Tapes: Good, Bad or Indifferent?
The quality
of self hypnosis tapes comes down to 3 main factors:
- The
recording quality
- The
delivery by the hypnotist
- The
type of hypnosis used
If you
haven't bought self hypnosis tapes before, or don't know much about
hypnosis itself, you would be forgiven for thinking that all self hypnosis
tapes are the same.
But of
course, as with most products, the quality can vary wildly.
We should
be able to assume that 1. is taken care of. With modern recording
equipment, it is relatively simple to produce high quality sound. All
our self hypnosis tapes are recorded in a studio by a professional sound
engineer. As are our self hypnosis
downloads.
Factor
2. is more difficult to get right. Many people (yes, even hypnotists!)
suddenly turn into Mickey Mouse when sat in front of a microphone! Practice
and experience is needed to give a natural performance. And of course,
this is extremely important when recording self hypnosis tapes, where
so much relies on how you say things!
And finally,
3. - the type of hypnosis used. If you have bought self hypnosis
tapes in the past, you may think that all hypnosis is of the 'you
are feeling more and more sleepy' variety.
To the
contrary, modern indirect hypnosis is an artful, subtle process
using many hidden language patterns, voice inflection, implication,
metaphor and other techniques.
This approach
is sometimes known as 'Ericksonian' hypnosis. Milton Erickson was a
highly accomplished and effective psychiatrist who used a conversational
hypnotic style. This approach is much more subtle, flexible and refined
than the more directive methods of his forebears. It utilises the unconscious
aspects of communication to allow the subject to enter trance rapidly
and comfortably without the common worry "Am I doing this right?"
Good
self hypnosis tapes will allow you to enter trance without asking
you to extend any effort, other than listening to them.
