Rapport, trust and trance

We were talking about using NLP and combining it with hypnosis to increase the effectiveness of any hypnotic exercise.  I went off track just a bit, so I want to bring us back to the reason I started talking about the use of words, and the power of using another persons lead system.

When you know the style that is comfortable for someone and your use that style (V.K,A) it creates rapport.

Rapport helps in creating a trusting relationship.  Trust gives a person the confidence to learn  new skills.  So using the skills of NLP, including talking to another within the style they are comfortable with is one key to developing rapport, creating trust and making it easy to learn the skill of going into a trance state.

Rapport is important for any connection. And it works wonders in creating a relationship with people who come into your life.

Yes of course I believe as a hypnotist it is vital to study NLP, and therefore we started with NLP skills.  Now, we’ll back up to other ways to create rapport without having to study NLP.

So for the next post we’ll talk a bit about ways to create rapport without even saying a word.
