Have you ever met somebody who seemed to be able to convince anybody to do anything, just by talking to them. You know, like the salesman who can sell ice to Eskimos?
How are these incredible persuaders able to do this?
One effective way of persuading others while talking to them is by using conversational hypnosis
Let me tell you what conversational hypnosis is.
When I say conversational hypnosis I am not talking about putting people into deep trances like a certified hypnotist would do in his office.
What I mean is using language that distracts or gets past the persons conscious mind so you can speak to or make suggestions to the persons subconscious mind. When you speak to the subconscious, you are using conversational hypnosis.
One of the best at this is Robert Dilts. He has termed this use of language, sleight of mouth. Language is a map of our world, says Dilts. Further, no two people share the same world.
He means that every person views the world in a unique way, and language is used to describe their world and even further to actually create their world.
So basically, what Dilts is saying is that when you talk about something in a certain way, you actually begin to think about that thing in that way. For example, if you are always saying things like, I hate school then you will hate school. You are actually making yourself hate school by saying you hate school.
So what does this have to do with conversational hypnosis?
Here's the connection, in the same way you directed your mind to hate school, you can direct the minds of others to hate school as well by simply talking to them about how you hate school.
Have you ever heard the phrase attitudes are contagious? Well, they are. And one reason they are is because the words people use both make and reflect their attitudes.
Words you hear infect your subconscious brain just like a virus you get infects your physical body. So if you hang around friends who use constantly use words to express that they hate school, then it is quite possible you will start to feel that way too. Not because you agree with their logical argument, but rather because the words they use to describe their feelings will penetrate your subconscious mind.
Words are truly powerful. And one reason is that the subconscious mind acts like a sponge and just soaks them up.
Your subconscious brain is very aware of what goes on around you. In fact, most of your thinking happens there. The subconscious mind can be influenced by what you and others say.
Someone's world can literally be changed by hearing the correct words. And what are these words? For that you'll need to read the next part of this article, or visit by blog to find out.
