Key ideas in Conversational Hypnosis and Influence
- Rapport is a biological state of 'sync' between two people
- The goal is to align the subject's nervous system with the hypnotist's
- Biological rapport goes deeper than just 'liking' someone
- Matching the rhythm of a subject's inhale and exhale creates deep trust
- Breathing is a direct window into the autonomic nervous system
- Synchronized breathing bypasses the critical conscious mind
- Rapport as physiological alignment
- Breathing synchronization
- Immediate mirroring looks like mockery and alerts the subject
- A delay of 5-10 seconds allows the movement to slip into the subject's subconscious
- Subtlety is required to prevent the subject from noticing the influence attempt
- Rapport as a physiological alignment
- The speed and rhythm (tempo) of your speech drive the subject's response
- The pitch and 'feeling' (tonality) of your voice signal the intended mood

- Applying breathing synchronization
