Neither of the two versions of compounding shown here
are a new technique, but both can be astonishingly effective and
have all sorts of applications where you may be using straightforward
suggestion work, for yourself or others. This first one has the
advantage that it can work with or without a consulting room environment
and with or without hypnosis.
To use it effectively, you would take just ONE suggestion... we'll
look at quitting smoking as an example, since that always seems
to arouse a lot of interest! The suggestion is:
You are now a non-smoker and will remain so for the rest of your
life.
Now take a 30 second continuous loop tape (as used in some telephone
answering machines) and record the suggestion 3 or four times.
Now you can have it playing quietly in the background throughout
the hypnosis part of your session - that's a very effective way
of using it for your clients. The volume should be such that your
client can hear it if s/he listens for it, but soon 'loses' it beneath
your voice when you start using the script proper. This is an effective
form of subliminal programming. (I am not saying, by the way, that
the suggestion offered here is more effective than any other. Use
what feels good to you, of course)
Alternatively, for self use, have it playing in the background
quietly enough so that you 'lose' it from conscious hearing after
a short while. This method is best for confidence and/or self esteem
building.
