It has happened to you that someone’s gesture or gaze calmed you or silenced you without a word: and your breath deepens, and your heartbeat slows, and your thoughts settle. This non-verbal hypnosis<\/strong> acts directly on the limbic system<\/strong>, and the body<\/strong> responds before the mind. Try to recall the last time: and the gesture was simple, and the eye contact was steady, and the silence spoke louder than a thousand words.<\/p>\n

\"Franz<\/a> How often in everyday life do we manage to communicate deep emotions and intentions without uttering a single word, relying only on the gaze and the body? Hypnosis is usually carried out through words, but there is another type of hypnosis, non-verbal hypnosis<\/strong>. The ISI-CNV institute is perhaps the institute that more than any other uses non-verbal techniques for hypnotic induction. Here are some examples of non-verbal hypnosis<\/strong>: a) Fascination<\/strong>: an ancient hypnotic induction technique, rediscovered only recently by Dr. Marco Paret. The basis of hypnotic induction through fascination<\/strong> is a particular type of eye contact. This practice is deeply linked to hypnotic fascination<\/a>. The technique already appears in some mythological tales; in Ancient Greece they spoke of Medusa, a mythological being capable of petrifying with her gaze. The power of the silent gaze is wrapped in an aura of mystery attested for centuries, from Marsilio Ficino to the magnetists. b) Mesmerismus<\/a>\u00ae<\/strong>: this too is a very ancient technique developed by Anton Mesmer in the late eighteenth century, and it is exclusively non-verbal. This method is strictly connected to personal magnetism<\/a>. Non-verbal hypnosis has a great advantage: it reaches a much greater level of depth. If hypnosis is carried out through words, the subject must necessarily remain at a certain level of consciousness, since in a way they will process the words. If instead we use non-verbal hypnosis, the person must necessarily descend to a deeper hypnotic level.<\/span> Here is an example video on non-verbal hypnosis<\/strong>:
