In the Hypnosis world there is a very spectacular lady who is known to many in our industry but not for her skills as a hypnotist.... She is Stephanie Skiba! Much more than 'just the admin', Stephanie is one of the driving forces behind the ICBCH and HypnoThoughts. She knows everyone (and everything), she's on the other end of the phone for chat, a catch up, to sort you out and put things in their places. She has a front row seat to what goes on behind the scenes in the world of hypnosis - she can tell you about different trainings and which one might suit you best, who to go to for specific issues, who's up and coming and a whole lot more. Today she joins Nicole & Anthony to share her words of wisdom, her kindness and her reality from her side of the screen. We loved talking to Stephanie and you'll love listening to her!

Hypnotherapists can find it a challenge to promote and sell their services or close the sale when the client is in front of them. It is advantageous to learn how to book clients during their initial consultation to increase business success, while also setting the client on the journey towards achieving their goal. Using the right techniques and strategies can quickly lead to a full appointment book.   Today, I share the Neurolinguistic Programming strategies that I apply to my business. I share how you can do this with the ethical strategies that form part of my four-step process. These hypnotic strategies and language patterns will help you to become more influential in your sales, promotions, and acquiring more hypnosis clients.   Want more like this?

Welcome to Episode 68 of Brain Software with Mike Mandel and Chris Thompson! This is more than just a hypnosis podcast. It’s the only place on earth where you can get a good quality hypnotic rash! Check out the show notes below and scroll down to listen to the podcast directly on this page. Keep sending us topic suggestions and show feedback. We love hearing from all of you. Here are the show notes for this episode: Podcast #68 starts abruptly, with reference to Janis Joplin and Jelly Babies and Chris calling Mike to task for lack of modesty. Mike responds brilliantly by spasmodically coughing on Chris’ neck. MINDSCAPER Susanne Witt is in the studio as a guest on today’s program! Mike makes a joke about Baghdad which they decide to edit out…except they didn’t … edit it … out. Chris begins a preframe about how he won’t be telling a Ken Sweatman story, which immediately becomes a Ken Sweatman story about not telling a Ken Sweatman story. Chris broaches the MINDSCAPING subject, and that’s what this program is mostly about. Mike repents and says that Chris’ explanation was so brilliant and cogent that Mike wants to learn about MINDSCAPING! Susanne explains how Mike tested MINDSCAPING on three female therapists/Hypnobabes. Emails keep coming in, all about amazing MINDSCAPING results! Chris explains how Milton Erickson used metaphors that changed people’s lives. He compares it to MINDSCAPING and Susanne says our unconscious minds want to protect us and give us good lives. Mike can be heard channeling Erickson in the background and talking about sending his daughter out to buy oil for the wheelchair. Chris pretends to ignore him. Chris and Mike discuss how MINDSCAPING accesses a specific map for the client; large or small issue. They talk about the stuff Susanne’s worked on with clients and the sound get’s suddenly weird but sounds cool, so it is not fixed. MINDSCAPING works even if you have no previous experience with hypnosis. Trance just happens! They discuss buildings that say “Trust” and fish appearing in MINDSCAPES. There are 2 aspects to MINDSCAPING: Seeing the map and landscaping the map. Susanne talks about how she often “sees” the client’s map. Mike kept a forest intact to protect the owls that were nesting there. Chris goes into good detail about how the protocol works. MINDSCAPING involves the client! The therapy goes deep and resonates for days or even weeks after the session. The Layla example: “This $hit works!” Chris mentions a man who bought the online MINDSCAPING course and used it immediately to help his son, who saw a blue Swedish fish floating behind him… You never know what’s going to be in their map! Susanne explains working with an artist whose map was a dry riverbed. He’s now doing reproductions of Picassos! Chris asks about the “dry river bed” which super-literate Mike calls a “wadi”. Chris says “watty” and Mike corrects him. Creativity responds well to MINDSCAPING. Mike gives the example of a man from Neil Strauss’ Society International and how he helped him get his creativity back. You can do MINDSCAPING online, which becomes MINDSKYPING! Mike gently points out that Chris said “progress” when he meant “process”. Chris promises to be much more careful in future podcasts… Threshold is needed in most therapies – Something must change! It must be me! It must be NOW! MINDSCAPING  can be used to push people toward threshold. Chris explains and Susanne takes the easy way out, because she’s “intimidated” by Mike and to a much lesser extent, Chris. Mike goes into a tirade about his great vigour at his age, while doing the voice of an elderly man. Chris manages to reign him in. Mike talks about the beta testing and how Susanne ‘Scaped him. Mike explains the water, horizon and the pirate ship that’s on his desk. When rechecked later, the ship had moved out toward the gap in the horizon and everything took off… Chris explains how MINDSCAPES just happen without planning what will be experienced. Susanne responds with the snail story – a gift from the unconscious mind… NEVER explain a MINDSCAPE!!! Susan tells a Ken Sweatman story about a Skype client and how the snail image worked for her. The client caught the shift in the imagery, and changed stuff in his life. Susanne’s MINDSCAPE story changed the client’s own situation. Chris talks about a kid’s percentile and his difficulty to score well on an entry exam for a private school. The father bought the online MINDSCAPING training, and his first client was his son, who scored 30 percentile units higher, the very next day after the session. Mike explains about the Green Man and how it fit in the subject’s map. How weird can it get? Mike tells the golden tree story but avoids channeling Ken Sweatman, although it gets close. Waterfalls in MINDSCAPES? Look for the caves behind them… Mike says “We cannot let this go, without discussing the Goat Man!” Chris screams “Oh no!!!” in genuine terror. Susanne sounds quietly traumatized. Mike tells the story of the East Indian client and the father issues. It leads to the deserted subway station, the father’s voice, and the imaginary binoculars reveal…The Goat Man!!! Mike explains that it was an archetype. How many NLP Practitioners does it take to change a lightbulb? How many Ericksonian hypnotists? How many MINDSCAPERS?  Chris talks about the daily use of metaphors to help people get where they want to go, and solve a lot of their own crap. Mike, Chris and Susanne are all available to do MINDSCAPING online! Chris makes an inadvertent inappropriate comment at exactly 30:10 of the podcast, but Mike shows admirable restraint, and says nothing… SusanneWitt.com is the website for Susanne, the Coach of the Unconscious Mind… MINDSCAPING came from many roots, including conversations with Mike’s mentor, Derek Balmer Mike explains the phenomenal correspondences between MINDSCAPING and graphology. Mike invokes The Goat Man again, and Susanne pleads “Stop it!” Come out to Hypnothoughts in Las Vegas in August! Mike will be teaching a full day of MINDSCAPING…Buy the online course and attend the live training for free, and get a discount on your Hypnothoughts ticket too! Check it out here: MINDSCAPING promotion for Hypnothoughts Live Hypnothoughts Live is awesome! Scott and Richard have done an amazing job, so come on out in August! Join the Hypnotic Storm Riders at the Irish Pub drink-off at the Orleans Hotel, Las Vegas! Chris mentions “The Wacky Ending” but Mike chides him for talking about it! Chris says he’s the marketer so Mike drops it, knowing that Chris is generally correct in these matters. Empowering Question: This is one of the strangest empowering questions yet, and it’s way too complex to write down. Mike goes into a “weird spin” and tells Chris he’s “just cut the throat of a man your age…” Metaphor: Life is a metaphor…so stop looking for one here!

Welcome to Episode 67 of Brain Software with Mike Mandel and Chris Thompson! The Hypnotic Storm is spreading like a rash, and you’re infected! Check out the show notes below and scroll down to listen to the podcast directly on this page. Keep sending us topic suggestions and show feedback. We love hearing from all of you. Here are the show notes for this episode: The podcast begins with the usual stupidity, with Mike doing guinea pig laughs over Chris’ intro, and then yelling “Hurrah!” for no apparent reason. A new way to vaguely confuse and sexually stress people by asking them to invest in you! Mike admits he’s pathologically ontime, as are all Enneagram Eights, and does love Oregon Pinot Noir, as well as the Washington State offering. They discuss Mike’s near crash enroute to Hypno East because of a guy texting. Toronto isn’t a backwater! 16 lanes of highway prove it! Mike uses a badge and yells that he’s not a cop to gain the advantage over idiots. Come out to Hypnothoughts in Las Vegas in August! Mike will be teaching a full day of MINDSCAPING…Buy the online course and attend the live training for free, and get a discount on your Hypnothoughts ticket too! Check it out here: MINDSCAPING promotion for Hypnothoughts Live. Chris goes well beyond the requisite explanation and it all gets dangerously close to a Ken Sweatman story, and draws Mike into the explanation of whatMINDSCAPING is and how it works. Chris and Mike discuss cold-reading, and the confirmation bias, the worst of this being Kripkean Dogmatism. Mike tells how in Newfoundland on a documentary shoot he convinced 2 observers that he’d never gotten up off a couch, which made the appearance of a selected card in a card-case across the room near miraculous. Events are reconstructed after the fact, which makes cold-reading seem real. People tend to remember only what fits their confirmation bias. Mike demonstrates the method on Chris, using his tan as an example. Mike advises to Google the Classic Reading! It fits most people. Chris brilliantly cold-reads that Mike hasn’t done the Classic reading recently. Mike says “Your sexual adjustment has caused you some difficulties…” and isn’t kidding! Cold readers make broad statements, and their dupes make specific applications of the material. Graphology is far more effective than cold-reading because you’ll be correct! Mike has been a certified handwriting expert since 1993. He provides forensic graphology and college lectures. Check out Mike’s online graphology course! You can see a cool video here: Introduction to Graphology and there’s over 7 hours of awesome training for you in the online course. A question comes in about rapid inductions and PGO spikes. Chris sends listeners to the rapid induction video on the blog at mikemandelhynosis.com Family members can be your worst subjects…at first, anyway. Mike tells how his student Mohammed hypnotised his father after one day of training. Chris explains the use of the startle effect and the PGO spike. Confusion means the brain looks for resolution. Chris starts to explain and begins channeling Ken Sweatman. Mike quickly takes control of the conversation and explains the need for rapport. They discuss a hilariously inept video from a hypnosis trainer that “drips with ridiculosity”. Mike’s REM induction fires a PGO spike, but the subject doesn’t know when it will happen. Chris mentions hiccups and startling the sufferer. Mike feigns interest. The startle must be poweful! Mike recommends Gil Boyne’s brilliant videos. Mike applauds Chris’ use of the Jerry Intervention, or: Seizing the power via confusion. Chris tells how he psychologically decimated the man for using sweeping generalizations and straw man arguments. Chris says that the man was an idiot, and Mike can be heard in the background, quietly chanting “Dick?…Dick?…” Chris continues speaking as Mike laughs. Chris thinks that Mike was laughing at Chris’ brilliance, but Mike is actually laughing at the way he kept chanting “Dick?…and wasn’t actually paying attention to anything Chris was saying. Chris explains how he actually used the Jerry Intervention, and says “This was textbook Jerry Intervention” and Mike laughs until he coughs and injures something. I think you know! is discussed. It all drips with portent and confusion. Who the hell is Jerry?!? Jerry was SO right about you! It’s now becoming a Ken Sweatman story. Life should be effortless, enjoyable and vaguely annoying to other people! Mike tells you how to do 3 really cool practical jokes while driving, and you do them at your own risk, and assume all responsibility for the results. Rememer: We are NOT responsible. At all. For anything. Ever. Mike tells how brilliant stage hypnotist Michael C. Anthony got him with the first of these practical jokes. Stomp on the accelerator and try to make it through the light. (Unless you’re in Chris’ Tesla, in which case you will make the light.) The second joke involves a horrific sharp turn and the relieved laughter when the car doesn’t roll and then burst into a fireball. The third joke is the best! Nothing like surviving a car crash…Stupid, but brilliant! (We aren’t telling you to do this, so don’t.) Empowering Question: What is it going to take for you to apply these empowering questions for your life…and how soon are you going to do it? Metaphor: Mike’s mentor, the late Derek Balmer and the parking meter… Ending: The brilliant song writing of Heinrich Dieter: Aufnahmevermogen aufmerksamkeitsverteilung!

Welcome to Episode 64 of Brain Software with Mike Mandel and Chris Thompson! Amazingly, we continue with our 5 Star Rating, despite the absolute idiocy of this podcast. Check out mikemandelhypnosis.com for more info on what we’re up to. Here are the show notes for this episode: Despite technical difficulties, we’re still here! Two Silver Bags of Pykthos arrived in the mail! Who the heck was it?!? Mike explains how he just helped out the Soulpepper play Marat/Sade as the Mind Consultant. More about pattern interrupts…Chris messes people up with them; then helps them get resourceful! Chris tells a Ken Sweatman story about using a pattern interrupt on his daughter Gloxinnya But isn’t the real reason…??? Mike challenges Chris to give his product free to the planet. Chris reverses and attempts to get Mike to sell his hypnosis training cheaper. It doesn’t work. 1971: Mike’s friends were the intelligentsia of Wexford Collegiate. Mike begins a Ken Sweatman story. The Mike Gray psychedelic ending as a pattern interrupt. Mike is called “A bloody idiot!” by his mentor, Derek Balmer. Mike grips Chris spasmodically, and coughs on his neck without warning, and is greatly amused by his own brilliant humour. Congrats to Steve in Australia for a mind-boggling hypnosis show! It’s just the beginning for Steve… Chris drops Larry Elman’s name to gain prestige. He goes on to quote Dave Elman, Larry’s father. A Ken Sweatman story rapidly develops and goes almost nowhere, although Chris talks about lotions and petroleum jelly and numbness, and placebos. The story continues for about 5 more hours, or seems to… Is the placebo “waking hypnosis”? Does it even matter? Or is waking hypnosis a placebo? Mike complains of being contacted by every lunatic on the planet. He tells of dealing with a moron via pointing out the red herring…Well you’re wrong!!! Factor vs Faculty, yet again. Words mean things… Dan asks about hypnotizing the deaf. Mike answers…The story of the Dominican Republic and hypnotizing the South Americans. Unconscious cues can lead to hypnosis. Mike at a school for the deaf, where 2 people signed the entire show. “He’s okay, he’s waving…” Chris doesn’t realize the story’s over and largely uninteresting, and keeps it going, rapidly converting it to yet another Ken Sweatman story. Igor at Hypnothoughts. Was he having a stroke, or was it the CVA Induction? Question about Florida…A principal who got raked over the coals because of alleged connexions between student deaths and his hypnotic interventions. Chris says “Ath-a-lete” but Mike exercises admirable restraint and says nothing. It leads to another opportunity for Chris to channel Ken Sweatman. Someone is furious with Mike, calling him “arrogant and abusive”. Mike admits to the arrogance, but does not accept the abusive title. The word is losing all meaning which is sad and dangerous. The man from Montreal was on a tirade, not understanding hyperbole and discussion. Some of Mike’s in laws need diagrams to stay ontrack during discussions. This is because they are idiots. Mike calls for precision in the richest of all languages: English Empowering question: What vital task will you complete before the end of this year?

Welcome to Episode 62 of Brain Software with Mike Mandel and Chris Thompson! For this episode of the podcast we’ve taken the hypnotic storm to Las Vegas. That’s right! We recorded this on-scene at the Hypnothoughts Live 2015 conference. For more information on how to ride the hypnotic storm, rather than being swept away by it, check out the Mike Mandel Hypnosis Academy and join the growing cadre of Hypnotic Storm Riders, worldwide! Here are the show notes for this episode: Sorry for the distortion in the first 30 seconds. Chris screwed up with our portable sound recorder (but he admits it, so it’s OK.) Mike and Chris are on scene in Las Vegas with an army of storm riders. Chris has been talking too much so he has a rough voice. Our special guest is Scott Sandland, founder of Hypnothoughts.com, and he tells us how it all got started. But wait! There’s more! We also have special guest hypnosis storm riders who share their main thoughts from the conference. We’ve never had so many live guests in one show! Mike and Chris are newbies at this conference. It was our first year but we’ll be back next year and we sincerely encourage you to come too! It’s an amazing and fun event, and it’s super budget friendly. Hear us talk about William Wood, Michael Watson, Derrick Watkins, James Hazlerig, Dave and Cheryl Elman and Dave Snyder. All of these people were highlighted either by Mike and Chris or by our round-table discussion with students. Hear what Dan has to say about Mike Mandel as a speaker and his opinion on the Mandel Triangle. Hear about how he’s taking hypnosis skills into the courtroom during trials. Ryan talks about how great it was to connect with other hypnotists in Las Vegas. He also shares a cool self hypnosis technique that he picked up at the show. Rick tells us how incredible James Hazlerig’s presentation was on the topic of nested loop metaphors. Mike and Chris explain what these are and why they are useful. Lisa points out how much of an effect we had with our clan of storm riders wearing the same T-shirts. We wore these shirts for far too many days in a row, but whatever. Nadine loved Hypnothoughts Live because of the incredible variety of presentations available. Chris corrects her on a horrendous mistake (You’re welcome, Dave!) Mike was thrilled to find out that a few different instructors are using his explanation of the Elman induction to teach their students. Our own Louisiana Stephen talks about how his very first podcast was this one, and now he’s here with us!/li> Richard, one of our very first online hypnosis students, talks about a freaky and magical hypnotic induction Mike did on him. Listen to his story about disappearing shoulder pain. Haris talks about how he’s officially a “Mike Mandel boy” according to Larry Elman. Haris loved David Snyder’s presentation about detecting deception.
