In our daily lives, whether we know it or not, we build rapport with the people we meet. What is meant by building rapport is building a relation of trust between yourself and another person or group of people. Successful customer service people are very adept at building rapport. The doctor you feel comfortable with and trust, or the clerk at the clothing store whose opinion you ask for. And on the other hand you have the people who, for some reason, are not as good at building rapport and solicit a feeling of distrust in you. For instance the salesman you feel is trying to scam you or the person you just met in the bar and is setting off alarm bells in your head.

As students at the Northwest Hypnosis Institute we’re learning how to successfully build rapport with other people using various techniques. These techniques have many different elements which we practiced in class with each other. The three basic elements involved being body language, voice and behavior, which are broken down into more specific areas.

This weekend’s class at The Northwest Hypnosis Institute, Bruce Terrill, our instructor and confidant, introduced Hypnotic Inductions.
It was clear from the start that the class was ready. It seemed like we had become comfortable with each other and we were working well as a unit. Now we could actually start to see how hypnosis works by example.

According to David Mason, an author of many popular inductions, the process involves a combination of suggestions, deepeners and tests for depth of trance. According to my notes, things can get confusing, quickly. After a page or two of mad scribbling, I figured the best way to keep track of the information would be in real time of a typical session. I thought if I could fit all the information I was getting from Bruce and all the material from our Hypnosis Training Manual under that simple system, I could learn more effectively. (more…)

After years as an investigative journalist, where half the story is reading people and getting the best out of them, becoming a certified hypnotherapist might not be too much of a stretch. Well, after weekend one at The Portland Hypnosis Center, I’m here to report that so far it looks like it’s my perception that’s doing the stretching.

In the newspaper business, the way you look at things is critical. Finding those little details, or a new slant on how things may appear can make or certainly break a story. In our first training class, I’m learning the same holds true. We started by discussing in detail how different people communicate differently. Not only in speech patterns, but in non-verbal communication as well. This was my introduction to the portion of our certification training known as Neuro-Linguistic Programming, or NLP training. The first thing that really hit home was that somewhere between our study of Sensory-Specific Words and NLP Eye Accessing Cues, it became quite clear that what Bruce was teaching us in his class, I had been doing for years without knowing it! Now the guessing game is pretty much over. Not only do I now know what to look for with more certainty, but I have years of scientifically and experimentally proved data right in front of me to refer to. After just one hour of study, I could already use this systematic approach to better ‘”read people” and make it easier for all concerned to “get the best out of them.” If only my editor was here for the ride! He might very well pay for the whole course, and then some.

Weight Loss

Weekend #8 Recap: Our training was for Hypnosis Weight Loss (a.k.a Weight Management) and it rocked plus Students had Real Breakthroughs to boot!

Students received another full weekend of top notch Hypnotherapy training from the NW Hypnosis Institute as Bruce Terrill, CI, CHt worked his magic.  The topic was weight loss and on several occasions Bruce pulled back the curtain and showed the students the inner working of what makes the NW Hypnosis Institute’s teachings so different.  Bruce not only teaches the NGH (National Guild of Hypnotists) course materials and tons of additional materials – he also uses several special techniques to instill confidence and skills that would normally take students a significant amount of time in a professional practice plus loads of practical application to achieve.  Most students in the class just enjoy learning from Bruce and don’t realize the extremely unique / world class training they are receiving… Bruce is a-ok with that, in fact he prefers it that way.

The weekend’s course materials consisted of a full Weight Management Session Checklist (below is some of what students practiced & learned):

  • Establish Rapport with Client
    • rapport, rapport, rapport – you can’t help a client if you don’t have rapport.  So we practice it over and over again.
  • Client Information Form
    • 4 page intake form (the basics)
  • Weight Management Questionnaire
    • 12 page questionnaire
    • the “meat and potatoes” of the program
  • Basic Assessment Worksheet
  • Goal Setting Worksheet
  • Weight Management Script
    • custom designed for each individual clients needs
  • Weight Loss Contract
  • Teaching Client Weight Management Autosuggestion Exercise
  • Teach Client Self-Hypnosis
  • Plus additional Hypnotherapy procedures, tests, steps & practice.

The single most powerful thing over the entire weekend (according to several students) was the Diagnostic Trance Process.  “The Diagnostic Trance involves an exploration of the various unconscious images and associations connected to the problem.”  It was amazing yet so simple and several students gained huge breakthroughs (and practical steps) into improving / fixing personal “problems” they practiced with.  I just love how powerful yet simple hypnotherapy is… it simply just works!  I can’t wait to hear all of the weight loss success stories from the students when we attend class two weeks from now.
