Here&#8217;s how to do it&#8230;<\/p>\n<h2>Pre-Induction Talk, Then A List<\/h2>\n<p>After giving a good quality pre-induction talk, simply explain, that when people go in to trance, they usually close their eyes, slow down their breathing, their muscles relax etc. In short, go through a list of hypnotic phenomena. Then ask them to produce those phenomena.<\/p>\n<h2>How Effective Is This Style Of Induction?<\/h2>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what one person said after experiencing this style of induction&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When I was focusing on the letter &#8220;R,&#8221; all the letters disappeared on me.
