Practice One:
Date: 9-6-2013
Today it was the first
time I tried hypnosis on my husband. Unexpectedly, he was as tender as a baby and
could following all of my instructions on
the three parts.
Before starting, he
gave him a hypnosis adaption
test. His right hand fell a bit and left hand raised more obviously.
In the eye lips test,
he simply couldn't move his eye lips.
In the hand tightness
test, he followed very well.
In the progressive
relaxation, he felt it was very effective as he felt his head was clearer and
not feeling so tired as before.
Then after minutes, I
tried fast induction (1) and (2), he just got used to my language and fell into trance
immediately.
This practice showed
that if one has the intention to be hypnotized to
enjoy a relaxation process, he has no any problem to follow instruction and be
self-hypnotized.
The whole process was
satisfactory according to his first hand feelings.
Practice Two:
Date: 10-6-2013
My father and mother are all over 75. My father passed the hypnosis ability test but my mother failed.
My mother has been suffering insomnia for
many years. So from the beginning, she didn't believe herself to be able get
into trance.
My father said he always uses self hypnosis to make him sleep if he can't
sleep well.
As expected, my father had no any problem in fall
into trance in the Progressive Relaxation and my mother was absent-minded, failed to concentrated
on my instruction.
This prove that, the first
criteria to be hypnotized is
the a person's trust on his own concentration
and his imagination.
Practice
Three:

I tried the "
Dictionary and Balloon Test" on myself: I was able to see the increasing
distance change between my two
hands.
Every
night, before sleep, I apply muscular relaxation, deep breathing method and
fast induction (from 10 to 1 on body relaxation) to improve sleep speed and
sleep quality. The result is dependent on my states. If I am very tired
physically, the method is much more effective than without. However, if I have
lots of ideas to brainstorm or to write, it is better to write it down and then
use this method to enhance sleep speed.
