One of the biggest crazes in the videogame industry right now is the Brain Training franchise. These games are excellent ways to keep your mind active and sharp. However when it comes to the mind, and especially the memory, you can’t merely take a one dimensional approach. If you want to maintain and even improve your memory then you need to harness as many techniques as possible. In recent years it has emerged that hypnosis is one such technique that can greatly improve the power and recollection of the memory.

Remember everything you want to using hypnosis.

Just sit and think for a moment about everything that is going on around you. If you’re sat in front of your laptop or computer, in a quiet room, it might seem like there is little going on and nothing to remember. Yet in actuality there are hundreds of items around you in a specific layout, sounds, smells and many other kinds of stimuli. When you think of it that way it is easy to see how the memory can be overloaded much the same way as you could cause your computer to freeze by running many large programs at the same time. Not only is there constantly a high volume of information being entered into your memory but the likelihood is that you often have points of the day where you feel tired or stressed. All of these factors come into play when it comes to the efficiency of your memory. So how can hypnosis help you to not only maintain but improve your memory?

With the rise in popularity of self hypnosis an increasing amount of people are turning to self hypnosis scripts to make the whole process easier for them.

A self hypnosis script is almost like a guide to entering hypnotic trance and then making the improvements that the person wishes to make. You can find an example of a free self hypnosis script that I personally wrote in my article Creating a Self Hypnosis Trance.

Self hypnosis can be broken down into three sections. The first is the hypnotic induction which allows the subject to enter a hypnotic trance. Next is the deepener which, as the name suggests, deepens the hypnotic trance. Finally the last section is the hypnotic suggestions. When performing self hypnosis you can tailor these to your specific needs. For example you could place suggestions that you want to have more motivation at work, or that you want to take more time to relax with your family. Whatever your needs they can be accomplished with self hypnosis.

In my last article here on NLP Hypnosis Secrets I taught you a few simple exercises to improve your control over the tonality of your voice. I hope you’ve been practicing as we will now be moving onto a set of more advanced tonality exercises. Whether you’re a hypnotist or just someone who wishes to sound more like a leader, these exercises are sure to help you.

Inflection

Controlling your inflection is important because it defines what you say as being either a question, command or statement. A question ends in an upward inflection, a command ends in a downward inflection and a statement is flat.

Try saying the sentence below as a question, then a command and finally as a statement.

“Feel yourself becoming more and more relaxed.”

Keep cycling through each inflection until it becomes instinctive and natural. Know that your choice of inflection has a profound affect on the person you are hypnotizing. Rarely will you be asking questions and most of the time you should be using a commanding inflection.
