Video course · 2 days · Dr. L. Michael Hall
Use words, voice and story to guide someone, or yourself, into a focused and resourceful state.
Most people think hypnosis means losing control. Dr. Hall opens this training by taking that idea apart. You learn how focused, trance-like states really work, how to write and deliver your own inductions (the spoken scripts that guide someone into a focused state), and how to use them ethically in coaching and training.

01Why this course
“Hypnosis means losing control.”
Dr. Hall describes trance as heightened focus. People in trance usually hear and notice everything, and they stay in charge of themselves.
“A hypnotist can make you do things against your will.”
A person can always refuse a suggestion or simply come out of the state. The idea of being made to act and then forget is film fiction, and he says so plainly.
“Only some people can be hypnotised.”
That idea comes from the old commanding style. A gentler, permissive style meets each person in their own way, which opens it to nearly everyone.
“Trance is something strange and exotic.”
Everyone drifts into trance-like states daily: in a lift, on a familiar road, waiting at a red light. The training starts from these ordinary experiences.
“Good communicators are always precise.”
Guided inductions use deliberately vague language, chosen precisely, so each listener fills in their own meaning. Precise questions do the opposite and bring people back out.
“A trance should make you sleepy.”
The aim Dr. Hall teaches is relaxed alertness: calm and focused at the same time, not drowsy.

05Who it's for
Not for you if you want stage hypnosis or a quick party trick. This is the closing part of an advanced training: it assumes some familiarity with coaching or NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming, a set of tools for changing habits of thinking), and it rewards practice.

07FAQ
Master Practitioner is the advanced level of training in NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) and Neuro-Semantics. These four tracks were recorded at one live 12-day training with Dr. Hall in the Philippines in 2018: Track 1 Modeling, Track 2 Meta Programs, Track 3 Mind Lines and Track 4 Mastery Via Trance. You can watch them in any order, but Track 1 is the natural start. Together they cover the teaching days; the final day of team presentations is not included.
No. Dr. Hall distinguishes it clearly from stage shows and from the old commanding style. The focus is gentle, permissive guidance that the other person can always decline.
It helps. These are days 10 and 11 of an advanced training, and Dr. Hall builds on earlier material such as precise questioning. Many people in the room were new to trance itself, and he starts Day 1 with what hypnosis is.
Dr. Hall teaches that a person can always decline a suggestion or come out of the state. He also covers what to do if strong emotions come up, and says new or unexplained pain should be checked by a doctor first. This is a coaching skill, not medical treatment.
The 82-page training manual used in the room, with the language patterns and sample inductions.
No. It is a recorded training for your own learning. Dr. Hall himself describes trance work as a supplement to coaching and change work rather than a standalone qualification.

08The teacher
Founder of Neuro-Semantics
Psychologist, author and trainer. He teaches people how to think, not what to think.
Dr. L. Michael Hall holds a Ph.D. in Cognitive-Behavioral Sciences and is the founder of Neuro-Semantics. He worked as a psychotherapist in private practice for about 20 years, and in 1996 co-founded the International Society of Neuro-Semantics, which trains and certifies coaches and trainers around the world.
For about 40 years he has studied one question: how people create meaning, and how that meaning drives what they feel and do. Out of that work came many books, among them "Mind Lines" and "Figuring Out People", his Meta-Coaching training for professional coaches, and "Thinking for Humans", a set of thinking skills in three groups: essential, creative and executive.
He still teaches live, and every week he writes "Neurons", an article for the Neuro-Semantics community. The courses on this site are recordings of his workshops in Mauritius, Malaysia, Hong Kong and the Philippines: you watch him teach a real group, with the questions and exercises from the room.
Symptoms are problematic, but they're not the problem.
Neuro-Semantics is an approach to personal and professional development that grew out of NLP and General Semantics. It looks at how people create meaning, and how that meaning shapes their thinking, emotions and behavior. Coaches, trainers and individuals use it to think more clearly and to make lasting changes.
