Right, this has become my new point of interest. My first experience where i went 'hey, that's anchoring' was watching derren brown convince a girl that red was yellow and yellow was red. It was very amusing watching her try and find her red car in a parking lot. She was gobsmaked when she saw her liscence plate on a 'yellow' car!
So, can anyway offer some sort of lesson or 'how to' or example or..... etc etc
Either way, If I remember the video right (if it's the one I'm thinking about), he set the triggers in the speech and well, it was quite impossible to miss those :D
Could you link me up with that video? I'll be more of a help then.
Well, I would but unfortunately youtube have blocked the video in my country becaus eof copyright laws. I can send you the link but as to whether or not it works for you is a nother thing entirely!
If you didn't recognize me by the name 'Theo', then I don't know you :)
As for the video, the link didn't work but I found it myself -- it was the video I've seen, yes. It's fairly old, I wonder why I still remember this. Anyway, what Derren does is, set up a certainty and uncertainty trigger when he presses on one of the subjects shoulders. "What color is this?" Yellow. "Are you sure that it's yellow?" *holds his hand on subjects 'uncertainty' shoulder* Now that I think about it.. I'm not sure.. Then he basically suggests that it might be 'color here' and uses the certainty trigger. Then she can magically see her car in a different color.
you can anchor a certain state (of happiness for example) covertly by doing an action which they percieve in their peripheral vision (whish they see in the corner of the eye) while their attention is focused on something else.
and first you have to access a clear state, intensify it, set the anchor and then test it when they're out of the state.
some of the informations are from the power of conversational hypnosis http://protek12.cohypnosis.hop.clickbank.net and the art of covert hypnosis http://theartofcoverthypnosis.com/go.php?offer=protek12
You can be quite a bit more daring than that without any conscious response. Tom and Kim have made a fortune showing how to do sliding anchors (look up "condiment anchoring"). I'll often anchor states with a simple gesture, perhaps a slap of the table and smile. The trick is not so much in terms of making the gesture peripheral, but in making it both natural and distinct. Adding a sound (slapping the table), and additional elements such as the facial gesture can help with this immensely. Often, I won't even anchor a state with my gesture, but will instead pace the subject at that point, and later lead them to make that same gesture in response to the same state. By pacing there gesture and then leading them through it again, it anchors to the state and doesn't require any special type of gesture. This can be one of the handiest and most covert methods, if you are decent at pacing and leading, and have a basic understanding of elicitation or revivification,
