October 28, 2014Session 53: Hypnotic Intersection
Welcome to Episode 53 of Brain Software with Mike Mandel and Chris Thompson! We seem to be taking a long time returning to our regular publishing schedule, but we're back and we have tons of awesome podcast plans! Make sure you check out the Mike Mandel Hypnosis Academy

Here are the show notes for this episode:
Mike tells Chris about his phenomenal trip to Boston, which includes doing random hypnosis on the plane, meeting Rory Block, and spending time with an online student.
Both Mike and Chris have shifted away from sugars and grains in the diet. We are feeling fantastic!
Mike talks about hypnotic intersection, which is an intriguing concept, and how it ties to his trip to Boston.
Mike and Chris talk about how many other hypnosis trainers are hessitant to perform demonstrations, which is in stark contrast to how we run the Architecture of Hypnosis training.
Mike discusses calibration exercises from back in his NLP training days with Derek Balmer. This seques into a discussion of calibrating an Irish woman on a plane, intersecting her with communication and using it as a hypnotic experience to help her get past grief.
Mike shows Chris how rapport becomes a trance.
A quick discussion of the hierarchy from incompetence to conscious incompetence. Mike gives an example on this topic.
Mike and Chris talk about a book they found online.
Mike gives some useful advice about the use of scripts during sessions.
What are ideomotor responses?

September 20, 2014Session 52: Insanely Stupid Food Aversion Hypnotherapy
Welcome to Episode 52 of Brain Software with Mike Mandel and Chris Thompson! This is rather embarrassing to admit, but Chris had this episode sitting on his Macbook for over 2 months and forgot it was waiting to be published! We're really sorry about the long delay since our last podcast. We should be back to our regular bi-weekly schedule starting now that summer is over and we are finished recording content for our online training program, the Mike Mandel Hypnosis Academy
Here are the show notes for this episode:
We discuss the potential for giving someone hypnotic suggestions in the hypnagogic state. This is a trance-like state that develops as you are falling asleep. The opposite of this is the hypnopompic state, which happens as you are waking up. Mike suggests you can give yourself positive affirmations most effectively in the hypnagogic state.
Can you deliver hypnotic suggestions to someone who is in the hypnopompic state? Mike's explanation seems so obvious once you hear it.
We discuss food aversion therapy, where some hypnotists seem to apply absolutely stupid techniques. Never do this! Chris gets Mike to talk about what a good hypnotherapist would do instead of the stupidity of causing someone to feel ill at the smell of pizza.
Mike talks about a woman who had to carry an epi-pen because she could not even touch a photograph of nuts because she'd start to have an anaphylactic reaction ... just from touching a picture. This is why Mike describes allergies as a phobia of the immune system.
A good hypnotherapist will look for the reason behind the behavior.
Chris discusses a story from The $100 Startup, a fantastic book by Chris Guillebeau. It's interesting how people feel they got their money's worth more often, when hiring someone to do a service, when the provider goes through some kind of ordeal. If a locksmith pops open a lock in 30 seconds and charges $100, the customer can often feel ripped off despite getting a better result (less time to solve their problem).
Mike relates this to a story about fixing a guy's anxiety in about 3 minutes, despite booking a 90 minute session. It's a good idea to fill the rest of the session with other ecological suggestions for ego strengthening, or whatever makes sense for the client.
