Hi Guys

I'm a hypnotherapist specialising in helping poker players reduce tilt and improve their focus at the table. I have had some excellent results over the last few months and a number of professional players are using my Mp3's as their pre-game warm up.

I've now moved to Las Vegas full time and will be looking to introduce players to the benefits of hypnosis this side of the pond.

I'm sure there is a lot of scepticism out their regarding hypnosis and it's effectiveness so I thought I would start a thread to answer any questions you may have.

Details of my products can be found on the commercial forum link

If anyone is interested in a free 5 minute MTT break Mp3 to get an idea of the concept please PM me.

Let the questions begin

Thanks

Elliot

Do you do MP3s that deal with life stuff?

I have some others,
Relaxation
Weight Loss
Positive mental attitude
Improved motivation for running etc

PM me and let me know what your interested in

Elliot's hypnosis sessions are the bomb!

Thanks, I'm glad they're helping

This feels like a dumb question, but idk...it deals with altering one's state of mind so it can't be that dumb

Are there any potential side effects to your product?

There's no such thing as a dumb question.

There are no known negative side effects from hypnotic suggestion. Hypnosis is a natural state we are in many times a day. The most frequently used examples are when driving down a highway and you go into auto pilot and then can't remember the last 10 miles of the journey. Or the state between being awake and asleep in the morning.

The Hypnosis Mp3's should be viewed as a guided meditation allowing your mind to reduce stress and improve focus in a particular area.

Hypnosis/the hypnotic state gives you an opportunity to take control of your subconscious and control your emotions far more effectively. You may however find your new resources to deal with tilt extend into your RL also. Some clients have noticed improvements in relationships and reductions in stress levels whilst driving etc.

Full hypnotherapy sessions where the subjects past is used to resolve emotional issues can have more side effects. The removal of emotional weight from events can make clients re-assess their lives as they gain new confidence. It is not abnormal for clients to make life significant life changes in the months following these sessions. These are generally positive such as leaving a dead end job or unhappy relationship, but they are side effects none the less.

I hope that helps to answer your question.

Elliot

Thanks Elliot, I will definitely check this out

Any more questions?

Two is pretty weak for a Q&A thread

I have 1.

Do these sessions help if i'm not native english speaker? I do understand it but i have to think about what's going on.

Hi,

A number of my clients aren't native English speakers and the Mp3's have still had a significant impact on their game.

If you purchase the Mp3 and find it's difficult to understand just let me know and I will offer a refund.

New blog post regarding how hypnosis works

http://www.poker-hypnosis.co.uk/how-...in-perception/

Hi guys

I now have a coaching listing up

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/16...poker-1240494/

Hey Elliot,

I purchased and used your poker warm-up mp3 a few times, I have two questions regarding the mp3

Q1
In the mp3 you mention "You will always play your A-game, your poker is perfect." But if you look at performance overtime for anyone there is always a fluctuation between performing your best, your less best, and your worst. This happens for anyone and Jared Tendler refers to this concept as "the inchworm concept" in his book.

Now everytime that I listen to your mp3, this is the point where the mind rejects these words, thinking that is not possible. Does this affect the usefulness of the mp3 a lot? I have been thinking about going for a customized mp3, where you replace these thoughts with something more in the neighbourhood of "Your decision making is perfect, you are completely aware of all the aspects that go into your decisions, and take everything into consideration." Something like that.

Q2
A few times while being really into the mp3, I experienced a tingling feeling all over my body, this is also a point where I start resisting this feeling, since it feels kinda scary, is it something I should learn to let take over, or am I just weird?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Thanks for your purchase!

I've responded to your comments below.

I hope that helps

Read your other thread, sounds like people are really enjoying this stuff. I'm highly intrested in buying it too, but a few questions first.

I'm a total hypnosis noob, never done anything else than once or twice some meditiation via audio (basicly had to visualise a lake, how calm it is, etc etc). It might sound like I'm some paranoid wacko but I'm always a bit concerned about going "under" and not having a real idea of what you're telling me & my subconscious. I'm a bit uncomfortable with the fact that you might say some stuff at some point that I won't realize (because i'm "unconscious") and they are not what I'm looking for or could "harm" me in some ways.

Do you reckon that there are, indeed, moments during the time someone listens to your tape, when we are totally off and not aware of what you're saying ?

Is it active ? Do you ask to represent some place in your mind, and do this or that, meaning that i have to be awake the whole time, or is it ok to fall asleep while listening (which is what happened on my first attempt to listening some sort of relaxing audio) ?

Are your tape specifically aimed towards poker ? I work in an environment similar to poker, with variance, what you could call bad beats and highly competitive & so on. Do you think your tapes will help me improve in that area too, eventhough it's not really poker ?

If i buy on of the mp3 (it would be the online poker one), can I pay with moneybookers ?

Thanks a lot for you quick responds, it definitely helps a lot, good stuff thank you!

In responds to Sedeete, I was a bit sceptic before as well, and never did anything like it, hypnosis always sounded to me like some dude on a stage putting you in a trance where you have no control over yourself and makes you role play a chicken infront of an audience.

This hypnosis is nothing like that, you are never really away or gone (at least I'm never and I have used it multiple times), it does make you very very relaxed and calm, and once you "wake up", means him telling you to wake up, you really feel super relaxed and calm and want to play poker, it helps me think more clearly and easy at the tables coming from listening to that mp3.

Yes no problem just PM me

No problem, thanks for the great feedback

Great, thanks for the answers ! Looks good, and PM'ing you right now.
