Why Master Hypnotists NEVER Use Pre-Written Scripts
“At one point I became addicted to scripts…”
I said those words in my last video.
I was referring to a time in my hypnotherapy career when I needed to have a script in front of me to feel confident enough to work with my clients.
And it happens to the best of us – we want so much to be GOOD at hypnosis, we want to get results with our clients – that using the words of our teachers and hypnotists we admire seems like a good idea.
So we work hard to memorize the words, read from scripts, buy new scripts so we have something for every situation – and inside some part of us feels like something isn’t quite right.
Like… there should be more, more creativity, more connection, more inspiration and even fun as we do hypnosis.
(And of course if you want to do any form of covert or conversational hypnosis – you need to have all your scripts “inside” you)
There’s a dark side to scripts…
If you work from scripts, you’ll never reach your full potential as a hypnotherapist.
That’s why I created the “Instant Scripts” process you’ll see in this video.
This simple exercise totally frees you from dependency on on scripts.
What you’ll see builds on the “5 Power Words” video and gives you a system to always have the right words at the right time.
Please post your questions below and over the next few days I’ll try and get as many answered as possible.
Igor.





Igor,
You make it so simple, your instructional videos are the Best.

Very well prsented and delivered topics on Hypnotherapy that spur me on to learn more. I took an interest on the subject 2 months ago .Learn… more!!
Just beautiful. I love the whole process of how you take your students by their hands without letting you know that is what you are doing! Just perfect
You are the best.
Shameem
Excellent as usual!!
Not a good example – as of course the research shows that simply asking people to self monitor their ‘bites’ or near bites is pretty much all most people need to stop biting their nails and break their habit…so why use hypnosis in such situations? Don’t you guys bother with the evidence base?!?
This is a magnificent example of non scripted induction. I’m not a hypnotherapist, but I do the group healing with the universal energy and I start the process with a guided meditation, that is the same as inducting the trans. This technique open for me the new possibility: life changing suggestions. I love the way Igor show how to organize the speech, combining the positive conditions with positive results. Also I learned the structure of session, which is completely new for me. I realize how important is to reaffirm what the inducted suppose to be fillings or experiences, and not just going, and going. Also I learned how to transport this hypnotic experience to the future positive and negative situations, keeping the winning state of mind. The other part I liked a lot was the suggestion of self-responsibility and self- capability “You.. Your..” I really like it. This two short videos have easy but very profound teaching. My deepest respect to you, Igor!
Excellent demonstration of how to no longer depend or need scripts I have ever seen. You embolden me & I appreciate the message you send.
I have Igor’s book The Deep Trance Training Manual which is excellent.
Evenso, watching the videos takes it to another level. I have been practising hypnosis since 1997. I believe what this video shows us it that to be a good Hypnotist you must be able to think quickly on your feet, have good repartee and keep feeding back to the subject echoes based on verbal and non verbal cues.
What I have taken from your demonstration is that the five power words are not fixed that those words are made according to what ever subject and problem you are dealing with.
To build rapport with some one you just have to match, mirror and then pace them. I love the way Igor does this and I love the way he uses the Law of Compounding so effectively.
Someone wants to know what Trance is, well it is not sleep I have had a couple of people fall asleep and I have just kept talking to them. Because I know there is a part of the subconscious/unconscious mind that never sleeps, so I continued to give them powerful life changing suggestions.
Trance is a highly focussed state of Attention. And depending on what induction you are using, you can get the client/subject to focus internally or externally. The most important prerequisite is to imbue confidence in your self at all times, believe your hypnosis will work and it will.
I was brought to hypnotism – as a last ditch attempt to be able to physically manage medication that my body did not like- I had extreme adverse reactions, but I needed to take it to make me better physically, so i had nothing to lose. I bought every cd on hypnosis for health and healing available and I was so convinced by my own bodies change and acceptance to the medication, that it has heightened my interest and indeed my wish to explore further, in the hope that I can help others like I – that felt helpless, what a wonderful and complex thing our brain is,
love it your the best
im tring to master covert hypnosis but i dont know what to ask for when i get someone in trans so my question is how do i make suggestions to the sub. what do i say to them?
I am just learnng and have used hypnosis on some people with success. However after watching this I will have to bring my level up more by practicing your technique. Thanks for your help.
Love the videos you’ve been posted. Awesome Stuff!

Thanks for the opportunity to ask questions:
My greatest challenge involving hypnosis relates to what I will describe as my difficulty (limited success) being able to 1) visualize and 2) imagine people and objects when I enter into hypnosis. Thank you for answering my question.
John Laska, Columbus, Georgia

What if the person thinks he can not be hypnotized, or thinks that the process to reach trance is boring?
How do I covertly boost my believe in my ability to covertly hypnotize people. Can you send me a “canverstional” hypnotic audio to boost my believe in my ability?
I likes to hypnotize, since that is a good way to make friends with others.
I’ve come across hynosis CDs on altering eye color. Are there any CDs on changing skin color as well?
Wonderful demonstration of hypnosis !
Hi Igor,
I dont have a question but i do have a doubt. I have always seen you teach in english and i do not speak english in my home but i get your concept… So will it work if my subject doesnt understand english but anyother language and i can speak that language…?
I love listening to you! You have an amazing voice! OMG…I think you’re absolutley awesome!
I can’t seem to do it…I guess I have to practice more????
After a session does it last for the rest of your life or can something happen to cause a regression?
Igor,
In my opinion, your video was great, but too long.
Here are my 2 questions: Imagine that you talking in a foreign language where you language ability is limited. How would you create precription with limited words? What is the best way to create a prescription to reduce migraines using imbedded suggestions.
i love this programmer.
The video is really gud.thing is that ……..i will say after watching next video.thanks.
1.Hey i wanted know whether i can hypnotise any one with in seconds.if so how?(by conservating with them)
2.I wanted to learn to overcome critical factors with hypnosis.please give answers
igor,
1.is it possible to read others mind like can i know what others (my friends ) think about me & regarding any other matter without themselves knowing that i can read them?
I have learnt alot from a series of your enlghtments on Hypnosis.
However,I have a question!How easy is it to hypnotise a Hypnotist?
Has there been a compreative study on who responds more fevorably
and effectively,at a faster pace between a Hypnotist and a Non-hypnotist client?
Shall I perhaps have to employ extra efforts when dealing with a hypnotist as a client and what shall such measures entail?
Hi Igor,
Very great video!
I’m just curious as in this video you used many linkage words other than the the 5 words of the previous videos, I’m curious what’s special about those 5 words in particular?
Regards,
will you help me to learn hypnosis i dont want to waste my money anymore and have been looking for so long just to find a working course and am tired of wasting my money will you teach me if it works then i will pay you so much
1. How can hypnosis be used as a tool to directly access the god self for self awareness and self realization.
2. Can hypnotic trance be used as a replacement for sleep ??
Hello Dr. Ledochowski,
I just started your course. I am a graduate student trying to get a PhD in pharmacology and I am new to studying hypnosis. Already, I can see the value that this course will have for me. As a result, I really want to go through this process correctly. I am trying to do the exercises for the second CD. I especially see the value of the state of heightened awareness. I found the idea somewhat counterintuitive at first, but after going through the process the first time, I realized that I had noticed more about the room I was in. I am not exactly sure how to achieve and maintain this state in order to observe someone. How and when do you suggest that we practice using heightened awareness – and how do you know it’s really working? I do not intend to continue on with the series until I have had some practice with these exercises. My final question relates to the ‘instant rapport’ technique. If you select someone at random to practice on but they don’t come over to talk to you – how do you know this technique has worked? Thank you very much! I have really enjoyed the series thus far!
Igor, I admire you and have been following your work which I believe is exceptional, I’m looking forward on a mentoring program later on in time where I have more experience, hence a better insight on what I’d like to work on and improve; for the moment I’d love to know what is your recommendation on fast learning and how to apply hypnotic principles on my studies since I’m studying continuously, make it for my career or hobbies and I feel that I’m not making the most out of it beside fast learning, I have a client which doesn’t know quite well what certain sensations or feelings are, for example he truly believes he has never felt hungry and has terrible eating habits, he may do his 3 meals a day or eat once every so often with more than a day in between meals, his GP states he is a very healthy person for his age regardless of his eating disorder, my question as regards is, How would you approach this or similar cases?
Great Job Igor!
I love the videos! There are not enough hours in the day to soak up all the trainings. How do you deal with drug and alcohol abuse clients?
Igor, thank you these wonderful video clips, they are great! You asked for some questions, well my question is this – How do you go there first with a client? You and other hypnosis teachers tell us to go there first and lead the client, but how? I try to imagine where I want the client and I either get lost in my own stuff or I just get lost. When I stick with my scripts (which are getting more and more spontaneous thanks to you) I do alright. Thank you.
Igor,
Thank you for your generous sharing. People who help others are true healers.
Question: Have you worked with Tinnitus (ringing in ears)? If so, do you have a CD of the session, or could you direct me. This is for my on personal needs. My plan is to find a way to free myself and then go on to help others. I have freed myself of pain and I am now helping others. I feel the higher power keeps putting me in these situations to learn and then go on to teach. Thank you, and I hope you can help.
what are some good ways to develop quick, strong rapport?
Hi Igor,
Thanks for giving us the opportunity to pose questions to you! I have 2
questions:
- I have a pretty bad memory and as a result, I find that I struggle to
remember all of the ideas and concepts in your course. Is there a tecnique
you can suggest that will help me to remember all the hypnosis techniques?
- Also, what about people who find it hard to conversate? At the begining
of your course you suggest ways of taking conversation to a hypnotic level.
So are there any suggestions for people who struggle to even strike up
conversations with people in the first place?
Many thanks for your help
Mimi
dear Igor, many thanks for your invaluable free tapes, especially for those of us with very limited income, i know i will purchase your course when i make money doing my mlm marketing online. This is the question, is there anyway i can get people to my free website that was given to me by the company that i signed up for one month ago, i got no distributors or purchasers, please advise, thank you.
Sir: I have two questions:
1) I would like to use self-hypnosis for educational purposes bypassing the conscious mind and going directly to the unconscious mind long term memory. Is this possible?
2) I see no reference to self-hypnosis in your program. Did I just miss it?
Thank you!
just what i would know is ther away that you can get
sum one that just by you and will do what you would
like for them to do
would you let know?
and if so how?
hi Igor
i want the girl i love to fall in love with me but how ( i am a lesbian )
Dear Cliff!
I asked Igor at the Seminar in Sweden what he thought of Binaural beats but at that time he really had nothing to say about them.
Now that I have those two inductions you offered for $1, I notice that Igor is using Binaural Beats. (I can only assume that he is also using the free ware software “Gnaural Binaural Beat Sound Generator” which I recommended in Sweden and have been using for sometime as well.)
Anyway, I noticed (by head counting) that Igor seems to stay in the “Theta” range for most of the induction until the end.
Until now, I have only found conflicting information about the effects of these frequencies, but have read that some very slow frequencies (ie. 0.5 Hz) can even have anti-aging effects!
I really would like to create a “Health and Anti-aging” recorded induction.
So my question: Does Igor have reliable information as to what frequencies have what effects and also perhaps the necessary session durations to achieve optimum results?
I sure would be thankful for any light you can spread on this subject!
Faithfully
Mike Payne
P.S. I really think Igor is a Great inspiration mankind, and he surely will go down in history as one of the best!
Anonymous:Heres your Question. How do you overcome negative christian upbringing beliefs that hypnosis is bad.
My answer: By telling them if it’s done to help others, for good,for the benefit of others,how can it be bad?
I would ask Igor, how can I have a presence where anyone that is near me goes into a auto induction and trance like state and does exactly what you want them to do?
Just one thing I noticed you seem to dance to that internal rythym you create to use in your conversational hypnsosis. Swaying from side to side, even with big pauses in the middle you still keep to the rythem by swaying side to side.. lol
Already have Conversational hypnosis, haven’t used it for a while; but it’s great stuff!
My two questions for Igor would be;
1) How do you by pass the critcal faculty in very left brain clients?
2) r u in the uk in 2010?
Wow I love your dress sence thats is really awsome. You have style and showmanship. You are like a Magician. You can do nothing, but you do it well.
Heres my Question. How do you overcome negative christian upbringing beliefs that hypnosis is bad. and what kind of beliefs do you have that simply make it easy to take control over others. I hope these arnt to late.
cheers mate
Hello Igor I am sorry.
From what I have read on this page some are in the dark.
To those who do not know, it you want to deceive our fellow humans for your own gain and you want to learn hypnosis then you will find you have to go first. A person whom deceives himself is called a fool. Do unto others what you want others do unto you and you will receive.
Igor thanks for making your learning’s available to us. We love you for it. Here is my question.
If one had to attempt autosuggestion when in great pain like (migraine not able to think or move to find help) what would you suggest to get into trance other than taking drugs for the pain.
Hugo from SA
Dear Igor,
firstly, 10000 thanks for the framework and no script video! It is a wonderful and masterful demonstration! So useful to absorb and use!
My question to you is: have you ever worked with migranes? If yes, did you have any sucess and how? Could you please tell more about working with real severe migraine,..
Another question would be: have you ever had a client with psoriases?
If yes, how and how much did you manage to help? May be you could share more of your experiences about dealing with psychosomatic ilnesses,…with hypnosis?
Thank you very much in advance!
Agne
Hi Igor
I would like to know the one thing that will put anyone into trance in the quickest way, especially using the subliminal technique.
Hi Igor, My second question is also about attracting business. I have tried to use hypnotic writing on my advertising material but I obviously am not getting it right yet, as I am still only getting 2 or 3 clients a week at the moment. I have tried asking questions to get them to say yes to first and then the usual “you can pay by cash or cheque” and NLP tactics, along with steering them to all the positive benefits of hypnosis. Again is there a protocol to follow and is it possible for you to give us an example of a good poster/leaflet advertisement?
Thanks
Karen
Hi Igor, I have been working as a Clinical Hypnotherapist for the last two years and need some help on how to build up my practice. I have done all the usual advertising (at great expense) and poster advertising for little return. Do you have a protocol to follow. I know it is best to build up by word of mouth but I would like to see more than a handful of clients a week. I love my job and have found your videos very helpful.
Many thanks
Karen
hello firstly i would like to say thank you for your great cd’s that have taught me so much more than any other source that i have been able to find on the internet.
but even though in this video the main point is to not use scripts i was wondering if you could send me a entire script from start to finish so that i can study it and when i make my own i will know that i have included all the necessary parts into it
regards martin
Great,
Thank you Igor.
can v change some1s interest & personality through hypnosis ,,,,,
This video, as all your videos, just a big pleasure to watch. Thank u.
Q: Is’nt neccery to chek what is under the “problem”? Not just nerveuos, but maybe a bigger problem like trauma, or let say maybe someone can’ot deal with the real reason under the “problem”.
Thank u
QUESTION:
It seems to me that small cues… changes in tonality is what makes all the difference. Some people don’t realize that you can use other’s gestures or movements to re- enforce your hypnotic reality.
EXAMPLE:
A friend of mine was on a group date. The girl kept pointing at him unconsciously as she spoke, and every time she did so, he would nod or say “DEFINITELY THAT… would be a good idea… etc.” Of course, in the context of something appropriate.
Another pattern using these cues:
He says: “You know what’s amazing?” (Then points to his head) “Our brain can only process a little information at a time, so when YOU’RE LOOKING AT SOMETHING IMPORTANT… there’s often more to it than meets the eye… literally” (caps signify embedded suggestion)
Another friend of mine said that again… it’s those small cues gestures, tonality, and pauses… that’s what is the most important to understand and master.
Now, to me, THIS is what is fascinating beyond all else. After all, they say 90 percent of communication is nonverbal. So how does that translate into hypnosis?
I would literally give all the money in my bank (sorry to say it’s about 200 bucks since I’m a poor college student ha ha) to hear Igor adress this topic. Again, that’s nonverbal cues and signals in terms of there relevence in hypnosis, and perception.
Please note: (plug plug
Anyone interested in discussing this with me, please feel free. I would LOVE to share perspectives, patterns, input, anything. There is no topic on Earth that is more fascinating to me.

Hi Igor,
Both clips, the one with the 5 power words and the one with the repeated mentioning of necessary resources, are really great. THAT’S RIGHT.
Question 1: The latter with the repeated inductions, however, took about ten minutes. Is there a rapid version of this technique that can be used in an everday conversion for persuasion purposes?
Question 2: Is there a strategy or a method you use to formulate one sentence after the other so that they get into the client’s unconscious more and more deeply? Are the inductions, as they follow each other, becoming stronger and stronger? Or do you make the inductions ‘randomly’, without any attempt to go deeper and deeper into the unconscious?
Thanks for the answers in advance.
Yours, Laszlo
IGOR (as well as CLIFF) I want this to stand out… simply because…
I HAVE SUCH GRATITUDE FOR YOU.
Not just because your freebies are better then products I’ve paid for.
Not just because you provide such logical simple easy instructions
AND Not just because yours is among the best content on the web
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY… Because you seem like such a good, benevolent and and caring human being.
So many people use hypnotic language or layout to sell just about anything under the sun. They prey on insecurites. They overhype. They don’t care about offering value. They only want to help themselves.
There are enough people like that in the world, and the result is… exactly as our world is now. I think that our world can be such a better place, and it’s people like you… people who truly care about another individual… who offer something that is as close to REAL MAGIC as you can possibly have in this world. That’s something to be grateful AND thankful for.
Please know that your presence on this planet has made such a positive difference to someone.
My question is very simple. When I first started this journey into hypnosis (Im more into covert than anything else) I tried to introduce some language patterns and hypnotic themes into “regular” conversations, sometimes it worked but many times I think they did not fit well into the conversation and got strange looks. Many times I got interrupted or dismissed like I was tripping. I got better with time, a little smoother but I would like some pointers to how can I transition easily into a covert induction and keep it “regular” conversation without seeming out of place, I mean didnt you got some strange reactions when you started talking about dreams, changing your language and/or talking softer and at a slower pace?
Is it about good conversation management and timing? or can it be lack of conviction, personal power? Would love your input.
By the way, you’re freebies are better than many expensive material out there (I should know, spent hundreds of bucks on crap).
Thank you.
This may sound like a stupid qestion but if one wants to create a self hypnosis script, tape , cd etc. Should one use their own voice or wll there be a better response if the script is recorded by another person? In other words will I respond better to an outsider or to my own voice. If I want to use my voice do I address myself as you or I?
Wat to go Igor. I saw how simple it was to take a situation and using the 5 key words through out a conversation how it would change a person.
I only have one question, but it’s a doozy.
How do you approach undoing damage done by previous hypnotists? For example, I have worked with someone whose father was into hypnotism and when this person was a child his father put him into trance and gave him many behavioral suggestions and several suggestions along the lines of no other person would be able to undo this programming. As an adult this man can ignore the behavioral suggestions and act in ways he chooses, but the suggestions still come to him and bother him, even though he chooses not to act upon them. He also feels very badly for dismissing the suggestions as they come up now, even though logically he recognizes that his chosen behaviors are the better choice for his life now. In another case an ex-lover had hypnotized a woman when they were still together and his suggestions were that every time she felt aroused she would desire him and only him. Even though she’s able to desire her new partner, she can’t get him “out of her head” during intimacy with the new partner. She doesn’t have the problem of thinking of him and being unable to dismiss the thought outside of the bedroom nor is she pining or thinking of him particularly often outside of the bedroom.
Getting past these “and nobody can dislodge this suggestion from your head” messages sometimes reminds me of the old question of whether or not an omnipotent God can create a rock he cannot lift. Do you have any insight on how to deal with these sorts of situations?
How can i tell if it is working on ME ?? I need help with my schooling I am trying to get a degree ( AAS )
Hello Igor,
What’s the best method if there is to hypnotize myself (self hypnosis?). I do believe that i can best help others if i help myself first.
And how can i use hypnosis to help rehab patients in drug rehab center?
Hi Igor,
I am aware of how important it is to have your subject’s expectations of hypnosis primed as much as possible before the induction to increase their response potential.
Is it possible to hypnotize someone who has no prior knowledge
or more importantly, no expectation of going into trance? if so, how does this work if the subject has no prior knowledge/expectation of trance?
A (Your) definition of trance would assist in understaning your response to this question as well.
Thanks Igor!
#1 It is been said it takes at least 10 years to become a good Hypnotist, and it is also been said when we access the power of the subconscious, great things are possible, so if we learn to use the subconscious to learn Hypnosis can we stream line the process.
#2 if the MK Ultra program was a failure because the test subjects wouldn’t go against their morals, then what were the morals of the Hypnotist trying to get them to do it ?
thanks
Jim
Hi Igor,
As usual, great content
2 questions:
1) Aside from Milton Erickson, who are the top 5 people or resources who/which you have found to be the most valuable in your hypnosis training?
2.) What other disciplines would you recommend (aside from the obvious NLP) to increase your hypnosis skills?
I have recorded on audiotape in my own voice an induction leading to trance deepening. I have played this tape while relaxing under optimum circumstances. I confidently expected good results from this procedure, but after doing it many times (probably about 25 times) I see no results from these efforts. Could I be one of those rare people who cannot be hypnotized, or is it more likely that I’m doing something wrong?
You may have heard the saying “that when the student if ready the teacher will appear”. I would like to know how to make students ready to learn through covert hypnosis?
Temptation to misuse these methods is tremendous how does one make sure that the science is not misused on others or oneself?
Q 1: what will it take to become a certified Hypno-therapist?
Q 2: Can I start already to get people into trances to help them stop smoking or things like that!?
i would like to know, how can you put some one into a hypnotic trance by just talking to them?
I am finding your material very suggestive and helpful.I am not a hypnotist, but have high contact with hurting people. I have begun to use the 5 words and grasp the concept of not using scripts. I gather that this is not about ‘controlling’ people or ‘emptying’ minds, but directed relaxation and focusing? Please comment.
I am sorry that I missed the Part 2 video.
I have one question. What avenues does one need to take in order to become a Master Hypnotist? I would really like some practical advice in this matter (e.g. I would suggest taking X course with Y and then……)
Thank you
Dear Mr. Igor I wish to become Hypnotherapist. The first I want to heal (cure) is myself. Since 3 years I started haveing the following Health problems:
I cry very easily. My hearing has diminished. Also my seat and my memory. I
am 69 years old. I was born 6th October, 1941. Can I recuperate through Hypnosis? Please advise. Thanking you in advance
Simple steps and easy exercises means learning is unconscious and fun. Every time I study Igors work I learn more and more because his teaching skills are relaxed and interesting. When the full video course is put on sale I will be in the queue because I wish to take my skills to an even deeper level.
1) How do I get someone into a sleep-like or “zombie-like” state of hypnosis, where they simply listen, as opposed to a lighter trance where they can still think, even if slowly and non-critically?
2) When using an instant induction, does the person need to konw the meaning of “SLEEP!” through previous experience, or will it work the first time a subject encounters hypnosis?
I own , and listen to on a regular basis, both Conversational Hypnosis and Secrets of Hypnosis revealed. However I have not experienced an enlightenment or epiphany which has enabled me to use these skills effectively. So, my question is ” What is the most effective way to get the best out of your audio courses ?”. Secondly, “How do you define immediate?”, because it seems to me that months and years of practice are required for these forms to become useful .
is it possible to use ‘converse hypnosis’ on bloody-minded / narrow-minded people, who wouldn’t usually listen to your ideas and suggestions?
1.)What can I do to build my confidence? I practice on clients and I notice a change in them, but for people I don’t know i seem to lack confidence.
2.)I am really fascinated with regression therapy, I really want to make a difference in their current life, is there a full proof way to accomplish getting them to release the past and view it as an experience
hey igor. your supurb. I Am Going for certification in hypnothearpy.
but i just want help on converstational hypnosis. do something powerfull read the dictionary. work with something about the minds corresiponance dont steal this idea from me but.
how can u learn how the psychic and ethric and spirtual body and mental body affect the reality of your life.
in hypnosis wheather using scripts or suggestions ie… for exsample my famous dangerous script. suggestion.
put your body in your mind put your mind in your body.
you could alter that with skill of suggestions like
realter…..
put your psychic body in your spirtual mind or your spirtual mind in your psychic body. and apply it also to your phsyical body.
you can really mess this thing up with skill which i know could remove pain without going to feal pain even while awake i have tested it.
and take that video off u shouldn’t get on nail bites because its hard.
get on buliding memory. knoldge inteligagance and iq are the keys. forever. if only hypnotherapsts would quit tryin to teach how to save the body with a group that must be done indivisually.
u might have issues teachin others togethr everyones different.
the body may flip one time and thats a tip.
but this video took my masters higher. I LEARNED ALL IN ONE CLIP. GOD YOU KICK ASS. AS I WAS WRITING TO YOU. I WAS WATCHING BUT YOU DO HYPNOTHERAPY.
SO WELL. THAT IT SCARY.
Hi!
I don’t really understand what trance is! And I dont think I can put others in trance if I don’t even know what it is! so please help
Hi, Igor,
An awesome video from you. Thanks a lot for teaching so clearly.
As I’m not an English native speaker, i would like to know, if there is a difference between the strength of suggestions in English and those of my language. In other words, if it is enough to understand the language, or all the suggestions work better in native language?
Thanks again
Margalith
for some reason this video stuck after 2 minutes
please upload it to youtube
thx
Igor, When I purchased the conversational hypnosis course I didn’t realize how much I’d be learning. I have been working my way through the materials and picked up so much information it’s unbelieveable. Until now I’ve just used hypnosis recordings to help myself do amazing things even so simple as remembering what I read to retain more information while studying. Most people I know shy away from the idea of hypnosis like it is taboo so I don’t really talk to many people about hypnotism but I have started to practice with them without them knowing it. The first person I’ve put into transe without a doubt would be my 12yr old son. It has really helped me to work with him because it lets me practice and he follows the suggestions I give him to help us both out. I look forward to getting better at this each day.
I wonder if when working with people and giving these suggestions are we not also somewhat working with our subconcious minds and giving the same suggestions to ourselves? When I work with my son it doesn’t seem that I follow the same suggestions, he follows them to the tee though.
By the way…using the “five words” and practicing speaking to people in that way is very helpful. I also like the video of you working with the male subject in vegas and would be interested in seeing more of that because even before you explained what was going on I could see what was going on. The only reason I was able to notice these things happening was due to the studying of the conversational hypnosis course.
thank you,

My two questions that I feel a need to ask is how can you get someone to do what you want if you can only communicate with that person in emails? Second…….what can you do to make sure you do not fall into the trap of someone else trying to hypnotize you or get you to do what they want.
1. With respect to Hypnosis tapes/programs or your Lifelong Success Affirmations, can you listen to them as you sleep? Is the unconscious mind still taking in the affirmations or does being in the deep state of sleep prevent them from working?
2. In your experience to what degree can hypnosis create change? Is it a small change that might give you the edge you seek or is there really no limits? There are so many programs that make outlandish claims when it comes to hypnosis, from adding hair to your head to adding inches somewhere else…what do you feel are the limits to hypnosis?
1. Just one question: Can i have a private session with you ? I’ve been trying to make an appoinment but people of support told me you were busy with seminars.But i really need your help I don’t even know how i become in this fearful person and because of this i had let go and still letting go great things in my life it doesn’t seem there is a way to get out I’m very young and the only reason i haven’t commite suicide it’s for what i can cause to my family. but is like i’m just watching my life pass with out living it.
Hello! i do’nt know if i love this man, he is doing everything for me, he really cares for me, but i’m afraid becauce i have been through hardship cos of my ex baby father, now i know two good guys, one looks good but poor, the other one is ok, convinent financially, takes good care of me, loves me and my son and my son loves him too i need your help!!!
MY TWO QUETIONS: HOW CAN WE CHANGE OUR BELIEVES IF THEY ARE NOT USEFULL? I WANT TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IS REALLY THE
UNCOUNSCIOUS MIND.
Another question popped to mind:
If a person is doing something like dowsing or remote viewing is there an hypnotic technique to stop the ego from getting in there and messing with the results coming from deep levels?
Thank you very much for doing this.
I’m really in love with a beautiful lady, but each time i am close to her I always become emotionally blocked… can’t say something constructive… are there any hipnotic ways to help myself and this situation? i really wish she would become my wife someday.
Hi again Igor, Cliff et al
I may as well ask the ultimate question.
Hypnosis can effect the body, be it via the endocrine system, or perhaps even gene expression, and has demonstrated some efficacy in mitigating some disease processes.
Further, there have been major advances in our understanding of the mechanisms of biological aging.
So, is there any reason why hypnosis couldn’t ultimately effect a restoration of our body’s to a more youthful state?
I propose a sort of Manhattan project for hypnosis and aging.
1) What niche market do you reccommend that brings in the most money in this economy for a skilled Hypnotherapist, NLPer and Coach?
2) What are the best ways to test viability &/or the profitability of these markets?
Hi There
Q1 I believe that positive or negative hallucination can be used effectively to assist in the treatment of clients. I would like to know how to achieve this and what ideal conditions or stage of hypnosis needs to be obtained.
Q2 How can the somnambulistic state be achieved with greater ease and success. i have only had success with some clients but not others.
many thanks
One question only.
A number of things have occurred recently to make me think I have might have spent the last 30 years in a coma! I joke… Perhaps the last 30 years in a trance.
What do you suggest to make sure that if a person has not chosen to be in a trance, how to make sure that person is functioning fully in total consciousness?
How powerful is giving positive instructions without first clearing the subconcious of the harmful data?
Is there a spiritual side to deep trance hypnosis?
Sir it is truly A Majestic Privelage and honor.! i have a brilliant company where we market great Secrets, the best water in the world and i am wondering what is the best to say to get a close. This is what i think
remember a time when your freinds, family said don’t do something and you did it anyway and loved it, and so did they this is again that time! so congratulations
truly yours Sir Thor
Hi Igor, I am not able to go into hypnosis, can you help with this situation?
Great stuff.
My questions:
1) Are there any specific signs a person may exhibit that help determine if an instant or rapid induction would be successful?
2) Do you have any tips for building proper rapport over the phone?
Thanks.
All this info is interesting, informative, helpful, and basically just awesome. What do I need to do to get certified? I’d love to be able to start a practice of my own to help others as a hypnotherapist on a legal professional level . Blessings, Rev. Doc
Excellent instruction, as always, Igor. I like how simple you make it. I’m not sure who said this (maybe I made it up) but “Through complexity, simplicity.” The amount of learning you’ve processed and the depth of thinking that you’ve put into your understanding is clear in every product and lesson you produce. Kudos!
As for my two questions:
1. To what do you attribute your mastery of hypnosis? The quality of your instruction, your volume of real world practice, your own insight, or something else?
2. Looking back with your vast knowledge and experience, if you had to begin again as a complete novice what would you have done initially to ensure a more effective and efficient journey to mastery? What approach would have saved you years, dollars, and heartache?
Keep up the fine work.

I want to publish my research work what I did in 1992 – 1999 in any index jr of hypnosis. Pl. guide me for that publication.
Hi–This is great information broken down into the smallest components and am amazed how much I have learned. It is a great learning model. I do have a question–what is the ideal depth of trance/hypnosis for people to effectively change. I know that if it is too little, their critical mind is still involved in running the show. Is there such a thing as too deep..I.E. sleep. If so how can you tell what is the sweet spot to getting people into the perfect depth of trance.
Thanks,
Ed
1. What is the minimum time needed to keep repeating all the positive suggestions for sinking in and ancoring in the subconscious and get positive results?
2. What to do if someone doesn’t accept the suggestions and starts to talk back or argue about them?
I am into sales and am very interested in finding out how I can use hypnosis directly to boost my selling efforts
From my studies of conversational hypnosis and neurolingustic programming I have come to the conclusion that once you move the more basic concepts of CH and NLP you get into the more advanced skills of Meta-programs and Anchoring. Yet there are very few programs that address the concepts of anchoring and metaprograms and application to influence. Will you be producing a course that delves deeply into these two major concepts and how they can be applied to the influence process?
From a very ethical point of view, I want to learn how to embed commands using covert techniques to help the customer buy our products. both on sales calls and in radio advertising
What innovative ways are there to increase my level of no-risk/low-risk practice?
When you give someone a posthypnotic suggestion (to break a bad habit etc.) how do you know if one session is enough and if the suggestion will last? Or should I do a follow up at a later date?
I would like to have a method (framework) to generate instant rapport with clients for real estate, can you help?
Number two. How about a system for use in an online video to get a person to trust me and give me contact info on an online form? This would be a video or audio online.
Great stuff by the way, keep going. Thank you.
1)Could you please write me the steps that are needed to become a hypnotist (what to read, what to do, etc.)?
Good stuff!
what is trance.
ia pass necessary to hypnotise anyone
Hi, I wanted to ask you this stupid question but I wanted to be sure if hypnosis can be of any help: How can I hypnotize a teacher during an interrogation so that he is willing to accept as reasonable my answers?
Hi, I wanted to ask you this question, though it may sound stupid: How can I hypnotise a teacher while he makes me questions during an exam so that he will be eager to promote me and will not try to make tricky questions?
Fantastic and informative series. I do have two questions I would like to address.
1.Do you use a pre-session interview where you look for contra indicators that would effect the Hypnosis session, such as prescription drugs, mental disorders, etc.
2. Hypnosis, by defination, is focused concentration. Do you feel that conversational Hypnosis actually acomplishes a deep focus as in traditional Hypnosis, or do you feel it literally “changes” the defination of Hypnosis.
Igor,,my BIG question is this,,,,internet porn is out of control today and i know of NO Hypnotherist who is getting under it all and rooting it out and setting people FREE.. i work with sooo many who is stuck!! Who is majoring in this area who is ACTUALLY getting it conquored??? secondly,,in setting up scripts how do you design a script adapted for a visual vs. an auditory etc, etc….thx, soo much for your reply….rb
1. Is there any way to tell for sure if I can be hypnotized by another person?
(I do not have any mental disabilities and I have been in a trance in the past, e.g; while driving home from work)
2. Can someone with a short attention span also be successfuly hypnotized?
Hi,
Something great. I appreciate.Please keep me sending
literature at your convenience Sir.
Sincere Thanks,
Leslie
Hi, Another great episode in the steps forward, many thanks.
If I had the opportunity to ask Igor in person, a question it would be – “Do you change the process of hypnosis when dealing with children?”
I am a golf coach and have cadets and adults for both playing and mental training. I have no quelms on using the process with adults but do not feel so confident when thinking of using the process with our future leaders.
Looking forward to the next email. Regards Les
Igor
great stuff huge fan. My question is How do you recomend getting GREAT at languaging and metaphor/ story’s and loops?
Hi Igor
Thanks for making it all sound so simple. I’v learnt so much in so short time. im getting better everyday, keep it up, thanks again
Is it the greed of their power that has held back other hypnotists from developing a way of hypnotically teaching others hypnosys?
where do you see hypnosys taking the world in the future? and how will you be a part of it?
youre certainly making a diference in the lives of many, thankyou for alowing me to be a part of it.
Good videos – compliments the Converational hypnosis course nicely. Really helps explain parts of the course. Would be good to include them in the overall package as examples
hi Igor……thanx for publishing so much informative.I have jus started reading your book The deep trance training manual.I have never been practising hypnotism….jus have the basic knowledge,also I have no envirmonment or partners to learn with.do you think I can learn only from reading your books?this is the first ever book I’ll read about hypnotism.
Excellent!
Thank you for a great series of ‘refreshers’! I did a diploma in clinical hypnosis after qualifying as a clinical psychologist in the 80s and have found it a very valuable tool, but have had many moments of self-doubt. We learned ‘permissive techniques’ and I always regarded scripts as ‘scale practice’ rather than the real thing. Having lost touch with fellow hypnotherapists it’s really great to be reminded of how simple it can be to get results, and I look forward to further instalments with much anticipation.
Wow, the tone the words everything. Great teacher, I could listen to you 24 / 7
Well done.
You are absolutely amazing, this is truly inspiring, your insight is spot-on.
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you Jan.
Just pretend for a moment that we are best friends and you really do wish to help me. Theirs no need to answer my question A.S.A.P. until you can find an appropriate answer.
Have you ever been a martial artist?
I only ask because I’m a In Ninjutsu practitioner and belive you briefly mentioned it. In ninjutsu and we have a Kihon happo, which is the root of budo, which means all techniques can come from those 8 basic movements. I wonder what it would be like if, you could help me find the (Kihon happo) of hypnosis?
suppose you could help me? Can you imagine how I could inter-grade it with my training?
So far your teachings have helped me grow so much as a person it’s as if I was meant to find you.
Many thanks.
what should be the average length of the script? would 5 minutes be ok?
Keep up the Good Work!
Awesome work, Igor rocks… i want to ask that ive noticed Igor during the induction slighlty moving right and left as pendelum , Is that done on purpose and does it has an effect in the process ?
As always this information is both useful and informative! However, I do have a rather important question for you. At least its important and quite baffling to me.
I have a small practice that is luckily very busy. The problem is I am dictated by the insurance companies as to what I can provide, that is if I want to be paid. How can I attract individuals who need help AND who are willing and able to pay for my services?
Another problem in this situation is my practice is located in a small town in Georgia. Get the picture? Any suggestions would be GREATLY welcomed!
Hi igor
Excellent informatiom given, as usual
My question may be off topic
.I am a lounge musician, this requires me at times to learm songs in short time spaces. do you have a course or method of “Time Distortion” that can help me with this.
Best Regards
Compton
That was GREAT!!! I feel more confident as my nails get healthier. I am extremely new at this and interested in hypnosis to better myself and others. I have listened to some of your other material and watched the other videos. I seem to get the feeling I am missing something between “5 Words of Power” and “Why Hypnotists NEVER Use Pre-Written Scripts”. When and are you going to provide the missing information? How do I get involved in live training? I would like to meet Igor. Thanks for your contributions to making this a better world for all of us.
This is very interesting as I ubderstand how you have to be creative in the use of the 5 power words. Also the body language that compels others to feel comfortable as you bring them in to your reality. I do have a challenge with control of my voice especially in social settings where everyone is in a jovial mood or there is a lot of background noise when business networking. When networking everyone is also trying to find a particular person and pushing their
own agenda’s forward. I would like to bring people in faster at social outing’s.
Thanks
Thank you some awesome stuff!
i fail at this. theres so much i dont understand
i have not been able catch it
like a dore is locket and cant find the
ke can you help
and do you have sum cd sum one could
watch over &over?
IS THE ONCONSCIOUS MIND SOMETHING LIKE A PC OR IT HAS AUTONOMY OR WHAT IS THE UNCONSCIOUS MIND?????
Thanks Igor and Cliff,
Lovely refreshers of the conversational hypnosis course.
If the unconscious does not recognize the negative, then suggestions of freedom from pain, freedom from drugs, (or the suggestion that they are NOT a nail biter), would not have the desired effect.. True?
When I’ve tried self hypnosis for migraines, I struggle to keep the language in the positive…”My head feels great!” Hm. Not exactly brilliant.
Can you offer any clarification on this?
What do you think about suggesting to someone that they ‘are not a nail biter’ as oppose to suggesting that they don’t have the urge to bite their nails. If you can create the state of ‘being someone that doesn’t bite their nails, now and in the future’- then you don’t need to suggest to them anything about urges or cravings because someone who is not a nail biter wouldn’t experience urges or cravings.
Thanks
Another facinatingly awesome video from you Igor, so down to earth & easy to comprehend. As I’m new to the world of hypnosis I thought that all this would be way over my head, but its great and your hypnotic voice is just so captivating that one can’t help but listen intently. You asked for 2 questions and like I’ve previously stated I’m new to this fascinating subject and have millions literally, but here goes, I have in the past month purchased both T.S.oH.R,P.O.C.H, I realise that I have to study the secrets of first but can you give me any help in what order I should study both of these courses. I did have a sneak peek at POCH and at present it terrifies my and seems way above my comprehesion, but I will struggle on with both of these as well as courses from Nathan, Jeff Stevens and other courses recommended by yourself or Cliff. I will be of course trying to pick your fantastic brains at every opportunity. All tips,help etc greatfully appreciated. My intention is to be the best possible.Ps I ain’t a spring chicken so be gentle ha ha.
Hi, Igor,
As a qualified Clinical Hypnotherapist, I would like to ask you,when leaving College I personally, found I was reading more and more scripts ects, instead of practising more on hands-on plus my voice is (as I have been tolt by friends) as mono, is their a way to be tought this? or is it practice, we were never tought about this in college, Please Help!
Yours,
Michael.
now i understand the meaning of hypnosis being a powerful feedback loop. thanks Igor.
What is the one thing I can do daily to greatly improve my hypnosis skills?
What are some of your beliefs that I can model and take on which can help me get the success you are having?
Awesome!
