Post-Hypnotic Suggestions (PHS)are a part of most if not all hypnotic sessions, no matter what the other interventions may be or what issue is being addressed. These suggestions are geared to insuring “follow-through” with the work just done in the hypnotic session. Often, PHS is used to ensure that specific, concrete action will be taken on the new perspectives gained by the participant during the hypnotic trance. PHS may be developed by the Business Hypnotist from information gleaned during the intake session and from insights gained from observing the participant in hypnosis. At times, the Business Hypnotist may directly ask the person in hypnosis what it will take to maintain her new ideas, perspectives and behaviors after the session or how she will know the entire process has been completed. With the participant’s answers, the Business Hypnotist can create very effective PHS.
One of the other, most frequent uses of PHS is to suggest to the participant that he or she (or they) will more easily and quickly go into the proper stage of hypnosis during the next session and will practice Self-Hypnosis on a reasonably frequent basis. Doing Self-Hypnosis not only helps the participant follow through on goals, but also makes the leader’s or team member’s next hypnotic experience deeper and more powerful. Moreover, engaging in Self-Hypnosis fosters independence in the participant, empowering him or her to take charge of his or her own change. Self-Hypnosis may take a number of forms, including playing daily a CD recorded by the Business Hypnotist with suggestions especially designed for the participant. Or the leader, manager or team may learn how to induce in himself or herself or themselves a hypnotic state in which there is a review of what was learned in the formal hypnosis session.
