Today in part ten of this Nlp covert hypnosis tutorial we are going to be discussing anchoring.
If you have heard the story of Pavlov’s dogs you will be able to understand anchoring very easily.
What Pavlov would do is sound a bell as his animals were given food, when they saw the food they would salivate.
After a few more pairings of the bell and the food, the bell on its own would start the animals salivating.
In Nlp covert hypnosis we call this effect anchoring.
Anchors are stimuli which call forth states of mind, thoughts and emotions.
While someone who is skilled in Nlp covert hypnosis can create a trance in a matter of minutes, a powerful well placed anchor can create one in a matter of seconds.
Anchoring is most useful for linking states and emotions created in your subject to yourself.
This is done by a process called binding. To bind a state or emotion to yourself you must use, “Binder commands” these are phrases such as, “With me”, “To me” and “Now” these phrases would be used along with gestures such as self points to install a chain of commands.
For example you could say, “As you really listen to a person and start to recognize yourself in them.
With me that’s when I really start to make a connection and feel that growing bond”. Anchoring is most commonly done through touch, using a phrase like, “Feel that”.
When you describe a state ask your subject, “Can you feel that” and touch them very lightly somewhere like the side of their upper arm.
The state you describe will become anchored by your touch.
To recreate it at anytime all you need to do is touch your subject in the exact same place.
