Ways to Hypnotize People

There are a number of ways to hypnotize somebody. The best way is by making them comfortable and relaxed. Then by simply making suggestions to the unconscious mind you achieve your goal.

I can remember the first time I hypnotized somebody. I had been reading a lot about hypnosis and mind control as I was very interested in the different ways to hypnotize somebody. After studying the different techniques I needed a guinea pig to test on.

I decided to use my little brother Billy as my guinea pig. Billy was about 14 and I decided I wanted to try and hypnotize him into thinking he was a barking dog at my command. Billy agreed to go along but I could tell he didn't think I could hypnotize him.

We went downstairs into the wreck room so we wouldn't be disturbed. After relaxing Billy by telling him to take some deep breaths and to count backwards from 100 I finally had him in a light trance.

I then suggested to Billy that when ever I said the word 'pooch' he would start barking like a dog. Then I told him when ever I said the word 'Billy-boy' he would stop barking and would forget that he had been barking.

I then had Billy come out of his trance. The first thing Billy said to me was - see I knew you couldn't hypnotize me!

I then said the magic word 'pooch' and Billy started barking like a dog. It was so amazing and funny that I fell on the floor laughing. And Billy kept on barking uncontrollably. Finally I said 'Billy-boy' and Billy stopped barking. He didn't remember anything as he asked me what I was doing on the floor laughing.

That was over 20 years ago and to this very day I can still make Billy bark like a dog.
