The handshake induction technique is a quick way to help someone enter a hypnotic state by surprising them during a normal handshake. Normally, when we shake hands, we know what to expect. In this technique, the therapist interrupts the handshake with an unexpected move, which momentarily confuses the person. This brief confusion makes the person’s mind more open to suggestions, allowing the therapist to guide them into a relaxed, hypnotic state. It’s a fast and subtle method, often used when the therapist needs to put someone into a trance quickly or if they are resistant to slower techniques. The therapist needs to be skilled in timing to ensure the person feels safe and comfortable during the process.
