When you think about hypnosis you might instantly think of the kind of hypnosis that puts people into a trance and makes them relax, then think again, there’s a new kid on the block and he’s called conversational hypnosis. This is a form of hypnosis that has been mastered by Igor Ledochowski who learnt this form of hypnosis from a rebel psychiatrist called Milton Erickson.

I first found out about this type of hypnosis when I was looking into relaxation hypnosis as a way to combat my stress levels from not being able to keep up at work. I was fed up of being ignored in meetings and laughed at when I suggested any new working methods. The final straw came when I later discussed a new technique I had thought of with colleague and they claimed it as their own and they got a pay rise!

I was so angry it was unbelievable. I couldn’t sit around and let this kind of thing happen to me again and again and not do anything about it. I wanted to find a way to make people listen to me and take me seriously for a change. By chance I got talking to a woman at a party who seemed to be the centre of attention, people were hanging on her every word, getting her drinks and giving up their seats for her. I asked her how she managed to do that and she told me she used a set of CDs called The Power of Conversational Hypnosis. She then told me that relaxation hypnosis might relax me but it wouldn’t solve my people problems. I got the CDs and eagerly listened to them. Now I understand the techniques that the rebel psychiatrist masterminded and I use them daily and get what I want in conversations.
