Episode notes
Hypnosis as Collaborative Imagination
- Hypnosis is not a special state but a collaborative act of imagination involving a sense of volition and non-volition.
- This grey zone of authorship explains why hypnosis can cause dramatic personal experience changes.
Parts Running Our Behaviors
- We have parts running learned behaviors like habits or anxieties, acting autonomously but for our benefit.
- Dialoguing with these parts helps negotiate behavioral change rather than fighting or ignoring them.
Pacing and Leading in Hypnosis
- Use pacing and leading by describing truths and slight unknowns to gently guide someone's experience.
- These language patterns can create a collaborative, immersive experience without forcing compliance.
