Milton Erickson was widely renowned for his mastery of Language, how he could weave his patterns of speech so artfully that people would be unable to do anything other than what he wanted them to.
Bandler and Grinder modelled his Language and simplified it into the Milton Model.
One of the many useful and easily applicable Milton Model Patterns is Presupposition.
A useful presupposition is:
"Before you"
This simple phrase is great when doing overt induction's. For example "Before you go deeper" not only allows you to easily deliver an embedded command, but presupposes that they will, in fact, go deeper, very handy.
This can also be applied in conversational hypnosis.
Similar patterns include When you, as you, while you, after you, as soon as you, don't...too quickly...when will you...
All are basic presuppositions, and work by indirectly suggesting the behaviour mentioned, without alerting conscious resistance, or allowing for the subject not to at least imagine doing what you say.
For example " as you continue to think about what you read I would like to have you think about when you will understand what you are learning at a deep unconscious level".
It is impossible to make sense of that statement without accepting that you are both thinking about what you are reading, and will, in fact, come to understand this at a deep unconscious level.
At no point did I directly make any suggestions, so I avoided conscious resistance, at the same time my suggestions were being given as forcefully as if they were given directly.
The power of presuppositions is quite astounding, as I am sure you will realize when you go out and use them.
