In this episode, we delve into the fascinating topic of ideomotor signals. We'll discuss what they are, how they are used in hypnosis, and the benefits of incorporating them into hypnotherapy sessions. Ideomotor signals, such as using finger movements to indicate "yes," "no," or "I don't know," can be incredibly effective in facilitating communication with clients, especially when verbal responses are challenging.

Teresa and I explore how to set up ideomotor signals with clients, including techniques for both adults and children. We also address common concerns and misconceptions that hypnotherapists may have about using these signals. Additionally, we highlight the versatility of ideomotor signals in addressing deep-seated issues, enhancing therapeutic processes, and overcoming client resistance.

Whether you're a seasoned hypnotherapist or new to the field, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice on using ideomotor signals to enhance your practice. If you're interested in learning more or have specific questions, please reach out to us.
