I’ve been wanting to spend some time improving my ability to improvise complex patterns of indirect suggestion, so I started this blog as a place to post some of my experiments. I will begin by rewriting each of the hypnotic inductions found in chapter 5 of Cory Hammond’s manual Hypnotic Induction & Suggestion, using a variety of indirect hypnotic techniques. Since the whole purpose of this is for me to improve my skill in being tricky, you should take care not to underestimate the trickiness of anything you’ll read here.

If you are trained in the use of clinical hypnosis and have a solid familiarity with the forms of indirect suggestion, then I welcome you to collaborate with me by trying to figure out what each script is doing to you, and suggesting ways to improve them.

No part of this blog should ever be looked at by anyone who is not adequately trained in the techniques being used, or by anyone unprepared to experience hypnotic trance. By reading this blog you agree that you will experience a variety of powerful hypnotic phenomena, and will hold me blameless for any occurences that might result from these experiences.
