Trance is the state of mind in which you are away from the external world and trying to see deep into your inner mind. Trance techniques are used by hypnotherapists to hypnotize the client. Basic techniques of trance are Relaxation, Confusion method and Eye fatigue.
Relaxation Method
If you want to go into trance yourself; you can use technique of relaxation, meditation, simple breathing. Relaxation is simple and can be achieved by simple instructions of physical relaxation. With that brain should be diverted to concentrate on breathing so mental relaxation is also possible. You have to center yourself and slip away your worries and sense of peace will enter your body.
Confusion Method
A well known trance technique is the confusion method. This is done with the highly analytical client who is not relaxed enough for the Relaxation Method. An attempt to confuse the conscious mind is done. The hypnotherapist will use some puzzling words by which the client is led on a mind blowing riddle. In between, relaxing words are repeated by the hypnotherapist. As the client is confused with his speech, he is at the same time being forced to relax through the use of relaxing suggestions.
Eye Fatigue Method
An alternative to the relaxation and confusion methods is the eye fatigue method. The client is asked to perform any number of tiring exercises such as “Look up at a point just above your head. Count backwards from 50 to one and you have to open eyes on the even numbers and close on odd numbers.” By the time he counts to one, the client is tired.
Simply Breathing Helps
A popular simple breathing technique is very simple and everybody can practice this himself. You have to close your eyes. Then concentrate on the sound of your breathing. Breathe slowly. Feel peace that enters your body with each breath. Continue and you will feel your muscles of feet are relaxed. Similarly the tension of legs and thighs will go. Feel your abdominal muscles are relaxed. Your shoulders, hand and arm are limp and peaceful.
Now your neck and finally your head are also relaxed. Now there is only empty darkness and your all concerns are gone. You will feel empty and peaceful. To return back to normal state again, concentrate on breathing and with each breath you will feel becoming awake again.
