Covert Hypnosis Tactics--What Exactly Is Covert Hypnosis?

Clinical hypnosis is the type of hypnosis that is used to cure people of phobias and headaches. Therapeutic hypnosis also will help people stop smoking and lose weight. Stage hypnosis, on the other hand, is a form of entertainment, so stage hypnosis is not good to learn if you want to get good at the art of persuasion. 

This means that if you are interested in persuading people, that covert hypnosis is the type of hypnosis that you need to be taught. Covert hypnosis uses language tactics and behavior tactics to alter people's emotions and decision making processes. Language patterns are only a part of the meaning behind covert hypnotic language because language patterns are not guaranteed to work because every conversation you have with a person is not the same. So, what language patterns do is offer you communication models that you can adapt for the unique social interactions that you may have with each person whom you are trying to persuade. 

The behavior tactics of covert hypnosis are part of what the art of persuasion refers to as "social strategy". Social strategy is an exceedingly influential tool in the persuasion process because you are using your behavior and non verbal language to persuade other people. Part of social strategy involves the alliances you make and how you decide to use them, and social strategy also involves designing the right social environments at the correct time. 

So, covert persuasion integrates several different persuasion tactics into one fluid force. A covert hypnosis trainer should not rely on language alone to persuade people because there will be times when people will not be willing to speak to you or when they will feel uncomfortable talking to you if they do not already know you. This is why it is important for a persuasion artist to create the appropriate social environment that causes people to feel comfortable communicating with you. 

Another advantage to establishing the proper social environments is that you can position yourself as an authority figure in many social systems so that people will automatically look up to you to the point where they will want to speak with you.
