"This instantly became one of my favorite books! Very few books in my life have I read and immediately reread but Hypnosis Without Trance is one them. I've trained with the top hypnotists in the world and in this book James adds a perspective unseen anywhere else. The use use of presuppositions, body language, rapport techniques makes this book essential for any street hypnotist or hypnotherapist. I couldn't put it down. The principles are universal and can be learned by the novice but the techniques provide a road map for application for even the most advanced hypnotists." - Nicholas N. Spohn (Amazon Verified Purchase)
"There are a lot of big ideas here. James Tripp strips away the woo-woo of ‘trance’; dismisses ‘mind control’ metaphors of hypnosis (“If hypnosis really were mind control your average stage hypnotist would be ruling the world rather than selling tickets to watch people cluck like chickens”); and pushes aside the complications of change work with paying clients (the conceit of the book is that the reader seeks to use hypnosis to stick someone’s hand to a table, as a fun experiment), to reveal an accessible model of conversational influence.
Whatever kind of communication you are involved in, the book will be an eye-opener, and when you apply the approaches here to your everyday work, it will take your influence to the next level." - Judy Rees (Amazon Verified Purchase)
"Great book. A straightforward, actionable presentation of the the stuff hypnotists do that works. I've had a successful full-time hypnotherapy practice for almost 20 years. I would have been a better hypnotist sooner if I'd read this when I got started. Recommended for sure." - Brian Mahoney (Amazon Verified Purchase)
"I have found this book excellent. I am a novice hypnotherapist trying to find my own style and James's book is the missing link for me. It has really made me rethink my approach so I am so glad I found this book. I liked how readable it was... Some hypnosis books are very dry; this was lovely and I wanted it to continue!" - Mrs S. (Amazon Verified Purchase)
"James Tripp, the author, is an articulate and thoughtful highly experienced practitioner of hypnosis and change work. He is a great teacher and speaker.
This book extends the insights into hypnosis that started with James Braid 170 years ago - that hypnosis is a collaborative process that is interactive even though the external appearance is of an "operator" and "co-operators" his terms for attempting to change the jargon. These terms are still metaphors connected to the programming computer metaphor so popular in the NLP, psychology, hypnosis and psychotherapy communities.
The book really does re-cognise that the process of hypnosis is really a form of coaching or maybe seduction which brings out the innate superpowers or magic of the mind-body. The book takes the next step away from the frame that a hypnotist does something to the hypnotised. He certainly helps engender the respect that all good hypnotists have for their partners in the process." - Christopher Michaels (Amazon Verified Purchase)
"Mr. Tripp does an excellent job of explaining his model for hypnosis, simultaneously demystifying the subject and providing a clear, concise map for generating and experiencing hypnosis. Absolutely recommended!" - Ryan Barnett (Amazon Verified Purchase)
"The subtitle delivers! If you're interested in a deeper understanding of hypnosis - more than just scripts and shiny new techniques - James Tripp breaks down his understanding of what's really going on and shares many great theoretical distinctions as well as practical principles to show you how to develop a deeper mastery of the art of crafting hypnotic experiences with your clients, subjects, or co-operators." - Matthew M (Amazon Verified Purchase)
