Quality of Response
New hypnotists are often concerned about whether or not they will ‘get’ the phenomenon that they are going for. So much so, in fact, that they often pay almost no attention to the quality of the responses they get – and it is the quality that carries the most useful information.

Invisibility Revisited
When I put the invisibility video up before, it received pretty ‘lukewarm’ reactions. At first this surprised me (because negative hallucination is such a strong phenomenon), but looking back it makes sense for 2 reasons: I had left off the suggestion sequence that sets up the phenomenon (things lose their impact outside of context). The…
What if it doesn’t work?!
Having formally taught this Hypnosis Without Trance method a few times now, it is coming to my attention that many people have a concern (maybe even an anxiety), that they are going to set up the process and have it ‘fail’ at a critical moment, leaving them looking foolish or incompetent. I totally get this…
Curiosity and Fascination as Tools for Hypnosis
What I have included here is a little snippet from the audios covering the concept of Curiosity Framing! This is something that I use a lot when hypnotising (so much so that I do it without thinking), and I think that it is a really valuable little tool for absorbing the subject in the process. Check out the audio clip and, as usual, I am happy to hear your comments on the blog.
Totally Hypnotically Focussed!
Hi Guys and Gals! I wanted to do this as a videopost, but my sinusitis is still too bad for me to dare video (no one must see me this way ;-)). I had an email from someone asking about… Well, you can read it yourself: “Hi James, Great new blog entries. Thanks Just a…
The Hypnotic Partnership!
OK, so I have a new video… but it’s NOT the video I was promising in the last post! It’s all chaos round here with Christmas Day tomorrow and me working up to the last minute to get the HWT home study programme together (today was my deadline, and I’m not even close). The video…
HWT Home Study – Coming Soon?
Hello All Having received so many requests for it, I am working furiously on putting together a comprehensive home study package for Hypnosis Without Trance – and it’s turning out to be a big job! Partly, it is getting to grips with the technical side, and partly it is the shear volume of information that…
Negative Hallucination!
A brief clip showing negative hallucination (invisibility) obtained using the Hypnosis Without Trance method. This is an excerpt from a longer HWT session, and was built to using the principle of the ‘hypnotic ladder’. httpv://youtu.be/cGUo29hOiHw
The Hypnosis Without Trance Live Workshop!
OK, after so many requests and enquiries, I have decided that I will do it – the Hypnosis Without Trance live workshop! Before I tell you about it, I’d like to say how much I appreciate all the positive feedback and encouragement I have received by email and by ‘phone as well as here on…
Amnesia – ‘Submodalities’ Name Steal
Someone asked me today whether my ‘without trance’ method could do anything other than stick people to things. It can and it does! I actually use this method most with my NLP and Hypnosis Change Work clients (and with them, it is much more about becoming un-stuck :-)) But in all fairness, sticking is all…
