We can often hear that hypnosis is ineffective and not trustworthy. This impression is created in the mind of people due to the impact of traditional methods for hypnosis. Traditional hypnosis methods are direct and authoritarian. The hypnotist directly tries to induce a trance in the subject and tries to control him. Most people feel uncomfortable to be subjected under others control. This creates a sense of unwillingness and resistance in the subject. If the subject is unwilling then the hypnotist will fail to control him leading to the failure of the whole process.
You might have often faced problems with your boss who is always after you and criticizing whatever you are doing. He may not be having even the patience to look into your explanations or discomforts. It will be difficult for you to hold back for a long time and will always be tempted to react. But if you are reacting in the same way as he is behaving will not give you any benefit but will also affect you harmfully in the future. Can you imagine the possibility of bringing him under your control without his knowledge? That is the power of covert hypnosis.
The encrypted instructions are used in covert hypnosis to give some message to the unconscious mind without the knowledge of conscious mind.
Encrypted questions are instructions disguised instruction within a question.
Encrypted instructions can be given to the subject in three ways.
1. Encrypted Questions
2. Substitution
3. Reversal
Encrypted Questions
Normally instructions are given carelessly in a format like,
“Hey you, clean that Room.”
