Can Hypnosis Improve Psychic Ability?

Can hypnosis be used to enhance psychic development? Anecdotal evidence dating back to hypnotism’s early historical figures like Anton Mesmer hints that it can. Of course this assumes a belief in psychic phenomena-a topic beyond the scope of this article.

There have been attempts to test ESP in the laboratory setting and the results have been mixed. One of the more interesting findings has been the identification of test subjects who exhibit what has been labeled negative ESP.

ESP tests usually involve the subjects trying to ascertain a given piece of information without the use of the five physical senses. For example, being able to tell what someone is drawing in another room or picking the order of playing cards in a well shuffled deck.

In the design of these tests it is recognized that a certain percentage of correct random guesses are to be expected. Any result that goes beyond these parameters is considered to be significant.

It is obvious that being able to score consistently higher than chance on an ESP test suggests some sort of enhanced psychic facility. Yet there are also those individuals who repeatedly score or worse than what would be expected with just random guessing-thus the person with negative ESP.

Indian researchers B.K. Kanthamani and K. Ramakrishna Rao identified distinctive personality traits associated with those who scored both negative and positive ESP in their lab experiments.

Those with positive ESP on the whole tended to be outgoing, enthusiastic, adventuresome and relaxed. The negative ESP subjects were prone to be tense, withdrawn, easily frustrated and suspicious. It was surmised that the traits common to the negative ESP group most likely stand in the way of all their endeavors, including their psychic development

So can hypnosis improve psychic ability? It is a powerful tool that enables the individual to access and refine more of his or her mental abilities. If the development of a more relaxed and optimistic personality does indeed boost ESP, the answer is yes. But you knew that already, didn’t you?

Can You Hypnotize Women? A Crash Course in Persuasion

The question is always there whether they ask or it not. When someone learns you are a hypnotist, either stage or clinical, there is the suspicion that you possess some sort of ability to compel others to do your bidding-for good or evil.

“Can you make people do things, can you hypnotize women? Imagine that!”

The innuendo is that through hypnosis you can influence the behavior of others in a direction that would normally be resisted. Kind of appealing to a would-be seducer. And kind of frightening to an unwilling would-be conquest!

So what gives, can hypnosis turn a frog into a prince so to speak? Consider the definition of hypnosis that states that it is “a naturally altered state of mind where a person becomes more willing to change his or her perceptions about self, other people and the world around us.” Change perception and behavior changes with it.


So hypnosis is a tool that increases what is described as suggestibility. However, it also true that persuasion takes place all the time with or without a formal hypnosis process.

Now in order for hypnosis/persuasion to take place there must be a strong bond of rapport between the two parties. Without rapport, suggestibility dwindles down to virtually nil. And the way that rapport is developed and strengthened is the essential paradox of the persuasion equation.

The truly persuasive person realizes that he must focus on the hopes, dreams and fears of the other person, not his own. This is what builds rapport. It is no accident that truly hypnotic people have the ability to make you feel as if you were the only person in the room. Is there anyone less spellbinding than the person whose favorite topic is himself?

So can you hypnotize women? Can you hypnotize men? The answer is yes, there are verbal and non-verbal hypnotic techniques you can learn that will increase your powers of persuasion. However they do depend on the ability get of your own way and focus on the other person instead. Imagine that!
