I was surprised that the question was asked again, but a free mug is cool with me. Thanks Cal and Celeste!!! I remember you answered my question before which led me to a successful second session with the client. Still thanks for the repeat. I found some new gems in this video and that just shows learning never stops.

Just to clarify since there seemed to be some confusion with my question. A pre-talk was done. I used the Gerald Kein pre-talk along with some of my own stuff and the client showed no signs of not wanting to do hypnosis when asked. He seemed to be pretty excited and body language matched. I also had him attempt to detail what he meant by feeling funny afterward, but he couldn’t describe it, Hs response was still I’m not sure I just feel funny. To clarify, I used the 8 word induction first then turned it into the elman induction, but he would not forget the numbers.

Still I could never get him to where I needed him in the first session. So after I received your advice the first time I applied it and in the second session he had no problem getting to Somnambulism. He still never lost the numbers, but using your advice he got to where he needed to be using another technique. Thanks Cal and Celeste.
