convincing people to be hypnotized

[hypno_man]

Hey guys, I don't want to sound like i am forcing my friends into being hypnotized, but what is a way to get people to want to be hypnotized. I need practise with my inductions thats all.....:(

Thanks

I would guess that:

1. Find out something very specific that a friend of yours really really wants.
2. Figure out if Hypnosis would be a way to provide what is wanted.
3. Figure out if you are a skilled enough Hypnotist to provide access to what is wanted.
4. If you are skilled enough, then offer to provide it.

( After all, who would say "no" to something they really really want??? )

First let me ask what coursed or training you have taken, it makes a difference.
If you are learning from a book, let me ask you this....Would you let a friend operate on you using a scalpel, for the removal of a boil for instance, something you wouldn't think twice about if done by your own doctor? I doubt it, but if that friend showed they were intent on becoming a practitioner by expending time and money on training, I have little doubt that you would be happy to assist, as would your friends if you did the same.... If you wouldn't mess with someones body without proper training, why would you mess with their mind instead?
