OUSTANDING. Next time anyone says "wouldja just like a little painkiller?" Just reply "I'll be fine, but you go ahead, you seem like you need it more than I do!"
As I'm having a philosophical difference with Richard on this, I thought I would point out both the pros and cons with this type of download/offering. With respect, of course. And hopefully some rational reasoning behind it!
I would caution any use…

Hi
Thank you and thanks for getting back to me so soon. Best of luck with the course. I'll get in touch with you next week.

Hi VM,
I'm glad you enjoyed watching the video clip!
I'll upload 2 more ~4 minute clips from this seminar -- both from my co-presenters at the event. These video clips are taken from a newly re-released set of DVDs recorded at the FLIRTOPIA semina…

- Hi Antonio,
In my opinion, not so much. To learn to match/mirror other people's voices... if you MUST do it on your own... is to match/mirror other people's voices! That's the second best way to do it, and it's a far cry from the best way. And there really is no useful third way.
The best, of course, comes from spending time in a seminar room with skilled trainers with amazing ears (I'm certainly not the only one, though there are many popular trainers I wouldn't ever include on my personal short list) -- where LOTS of exercises are intentionally run for that specific purpose, with thorough trainer supervision, including having observers/listeners give you immediate real-time feedback about distinctions you're not yet hearing when you're trying to match someone else's voice.
Increasingly these days it seems people are trying to "do it on their own" and what that's causing of course is hordes of people who have a bare shadow of the skills they've read about. It's disappointing.
As for the metronome, that makes you more rhythmically compelling -- and that's all about leading. Matching nd mirroring is all about pacing. Both useful skills -- for verrrry different purposes.

Antonio said… - Jonathan, I was reading about some of your tips for using a metronome to develop a more "hypnotic" voice. This got me to thinking - would using a kind of metronome that would at times randomly change the the beat pattern be helpful in learning how to match/mirror someones voice?

Ryan Mooney said… - Thanks for getting back to me, I appreciate it. Unfortunately, I'm the only one of my friends that is into NLP and hypnosis. They are into sports and Warcraft (I don't know why, but they probably say the same about me and hypnosis, LOL). Anyway, if I come across some people from Pitt on here I will defintely send them your way. I would be very interested in meeting you sometime, even if just for some coffee or a tour of Pittsburgh. I am trying to find people here in the 'Burgh to practice and learn with, and I am looking for a mentor. If you'd be interested in meeting when you have some free time please get back to me because this is all fairly new to me and I'm eager to learn.
Thanks again, Ryan

Years and years ago, I studied handwriting analysis; it is fascinating. Nightwalking ... an interesting method of inducing altered/heightened consciousness, very interesting.

Take care, my friend!

Michael,
I’m not sure what you’re “just asking”.

It’s my understanding that when someone is experiencing “fight/flight stress”,…
Devin a few months ago I created a group called "dual inductions" as a way for people to discuss paraliminals aka dual inductions. If you search for dual inductions in the group search function you'll find it.

@ Michael H,
Does this reaction to new information remind you of the NPR interview that you posted - about "backfire" phenomenon? A self-hypnotic avoidance of "dangerous information" that George Orwell called "Protective Stupidity"

Hey John,
Do you agree that a technique that is safe and effective when used by you could be ineffective and harmful when used by a lesser hypnotist?
