Radbado,

well done. It is what the phrase 'owned' was made for. YOu achieved more in your first attempt than I did in 5 years

Make sure you pay attention to the guidelines on health, safety etc and keep it fun. Teachers do not like this stuff.

Anthony :lol:

This is a really good book but I think I suck a little at hypnosis. I have got the set pieces down but am yet to induce someone after several failed attempts of trying to do so.
I think this maybe I am trying it on people who know me really well and therefore don't trust me due to my slightly warped sense of humour.

If doing hypnosis as part of a magic/mental set, I find it best to ask a table if there's anyone who "thinks they're slightly psychic or being hypnotised before?" When you get a volunteer say something like "yes you really are quite intuitive aren't you? This is the kindo f thing that you're good at."

If they've been hypnotised before and they're a believer in things metaphysical, it's a walk in the park. As they say.

Indeed, sometimes the best selection procedure is to just ask if people have been hypnotized before.

Reality is Plastic - Proper Mental Volume 2

Postby Jacquin » Nov 7th, '08, 16:05

Hi,

just wanted to let you know that I have just started sending out the second free supplement to my book Reality is Plastic - Impromptu Hypnosis.

It is solely aimed at magicians especially mentalists and concerns hypnosis as a pre-show tool. If you don't receive it within the next 48 hours get in touch directly.

Reality is Plastic - Proper Mental Volume 2

Contents
The Set Up: Pre-show Hypnosis
The Set Piece: Using the Set Piece as an Induction
Induction: Invisible Induction
Effect: Reverse Mind Reading
References

If for any reason you did not receive the first supplement let me know.

Stay in touch with any questions.

Thanks for the support.

P.S Manchurian Techniques. I am running a 2 day Hypnosis Masterclass for magicians and mentalists ONLY on 17th and 18th January. It will be a mixture of classroom and street/bar practical. If you wish to register your interest email me.

Best regards,

Anthony

WOW sounds like a great book :)

Since i busted my budget for magic for this month completly Ill have to wait till december to get it :( Can you do some hypnotic induction so that it does not hurt so much till then that i cant order it??? Pretty pretty please? just make me forget about it till december :D


Haha nah seriously from what i read the book seems to be amazing! Well i am still a little bit sceptical about uhm the results you can get from it without having an experience in hypnosis but heh i am not against letting myself be surprised!

greets

ok i decided to heck with december, filled myself with the wonderful moroccan lamb (recipe from lady), remembered that people can survive for up to 3 weeks without food and ordered the book today :)

I was stunned by the quic response from Anthony. I had experienced good customer service before but his surpasses everything so far!

I still have a lot of questions to ask but i will wait till i read the book and supplements since they might already contain the answers.

I am very impressed and thank you very much Anthony!

I second the comments about Anthony's excellent customer service.

I have received many E mails from Anthony answering questions about general enquiries I have.

I look forward to purchasing items from people like this.

Hello,

I've been following this thread with interest for a while now, and finally stuck my hand in my pocket yesterday to buy it. Ordered it from Amazon, and even emailed Anthony with a cheeky request for a signed copy.

I got in this evening from work and there it was, waiting for me to get started.

I'd just like to say a big thanks to all who have written on this thread and made me spend my money, and an even bigger thank you to Anthony for being a top chap and signing my copy!

Now, I wonder if I can stick my missus to the floor in front of the oven...

Read the book and I'm sure you could go ten times better than that!

Ordered mine, then went through reading the reviews.

So far, I'm enjoying the PDF preview. Mr. Jaqcuin's customer service VIA email is, like everyone else already said, top notch.

I can't wait for the book to arrive!

Thanks for the thanks.

Adrian, that is the kind of question that will get you placed on some kind of register.
