1 section • 14 lectures • 1h 13m total length

    Learn the foundations of hypnosis and a practical, script-free approach that uses intentional words to deliver real-world results for amateur hypnotists and help others feel relaxed.

  • Hypnosis Explained2:33

    Hypnosis is the suspension of analytical thinking to open the mind and fully accept ideas that help the client, not just relaxation. It introduces the hypnotic contract and roles.

  • What Hypnosis Isn't4:21

    Dispels common hypnosis myths, explaining it is not relaxation, sleep, unconsciousness, deceit, or mind control, and emphasizes cooperation, consent, and the practitioner's art in guiding suggestibility.

  • What Hypnosis Can Help With2:33

    Explore how hypnosis changes attitudes and beliefs to support smoking cessation, including the mental component. Acknowledge its limits on the physical component and on withdrawal tolerance and weight loss goals.

  • Risks of Hypnosis3:50

    This lecture explains that hypnosis carries real but low risks, stresses informed consent and careful handling of heightened suggestibility, and cautions against retraumatization or exploring past memories outside professional care.

  • Your Role vs. Your Client's Role1:57

    Put the client's best interests first in the hypnotic contract and the hypnotist's role, to help the client achieve their goals through trusted cooperation and suspended analytical thinking.

  • Preparing Your Client for Hypnosis3:56

    Position your client for comfortable relaxation with proper support, explain what hypnosis is and isn't, what to expect, and obtain informed consent for hypnosis and specific messages.

  • Preparing Yourself for Hypnosis6:19

    Learn to practice hypnosis ethically by prioritizing the client's best interests, avoiding personal conflicts, and setting a clear session intention to speak sincerely and deliver focused messages.

  • A Simple Induction and Deepener5:32

    Master a progressive relaxation induction to guide a client from their waking state into hypnosis, relaxing head to toe. Use a countdown from ten to one to structure deep inertia.

  • Guidelines for Suggestions7:23

    Speak hypnotically with simple, complete sentences in the present tense and positive terms, from the heart and authentic, focusing on the client’s moment, universal truths, and what they can do.

  • Ideas for Suggestions7:32

    Craft suggestions by reflecting attitudes of people who do not have the problem. Emphasize mind over matter, inviolable human worth, and self-kindness to guide clients toward healthier choices.

  • Emerging from Hypnosis1:35

    emerging from hypnosis energizes the client, shifts focus outward, re-engages thoughts, and continues affirmative suggestions after eyes open, with a simple count-up emergence.

  • Demonstration17:13

    Explore a brief hypnosis demonstration that blends theory and practice, guiding beginners to become confident hypnotists through mind over matter, relaxation cues, and words that affect others for the better.

  • Next Steps2:51

    Conclude by embracing ongoing practice, hypnotize with inward, non-scripted speech, and share Morpheus Hypnosis resources, YouTube talks, live Toronto classes, and online sessions.

Description

Hypnosis Made Simple is a short "crash course" in how to use hypnosis with your friends for fun and relaxation, with a focus on learning the most important principles so that you do not have to use scripts. It's not meant to qualify you as a professional practitioner, although the foundations laid in this course are a solid introduction to further study. For the kind of recreational hypnosis that's often done online or between friends, this course might be just what you need to gain the confidence to find your own, authentic voice. You will learn:

  • What hypnosis is and isn't, so that you know what to look for

  • What hypnosis can help with, and its limitations

  • Risks of hypnosis (this topic is too often neglected by other courses)

  • Your role, the client's role and how they relate

  • How to prepare your client for hypnosis

  • How to prepare yourself for hypnosis, including use of your voice

  • A very simple induction and deepener

  • Easy-to-remember guidelines for phrasing suggestions

  • A few big-picture ideas for what to say during your sessions

The course ends with a demonstration that ties all of these concepts together. Your instructor is a full-time practising professional who has never depended on scripts in 15 years of professional practice. He believes that you can do the same, when you use your voice with kindness and positive intentions, the way that's described in this course.

Who this course is for:

  • Complete beginners to hypnosis, especially those with an analytical mind
