NLP & Hypnosis: What is the Milton Model?

[@ManagementCourses]

In NLP, one way to start to change people's attitudes and approaches is to make subtle suggestions to their unconscious mind. It's a lightweight, conversational form of hypnotic suggestion. And the method we use is called the Milton Model, after psychoanalyst Milton Erickson.

I really got confused. Artfully vague? How is that possible? More I listen to this video, more I got confused. I denied the things you said from 2:24, in my mind. Am I unconsciously avoiding understanding or just hesitating to learn?

[@ManagementCourses]

My understanding of 'artfully vague' is that it refers to deliberately using language in an imprecise way, so that what you say is ambiguous. Often it makes use of homophones - two words that sound the same but mean different things. If you listen to Ericksonian language with an analytical mindset, you can understand what it is doing (though it can be hard to catch every twist) but it will have no impact on you. It works best when the listener is unaware of the ambiguities and has their mental defenses down. Remember: Erickson used it in a clinical setting. NLP founders extracted it from there, codified what Erickson was doing, and taught it to people with no therapeutic training. Next time a salesperson signs off a call, or hails you as you leave the shop with the words 'Bye now!', consider that they could be trying to place an embedded instruction into your subconscious, to buy now.

@@ManagementCourses Thank you so much sir for your explanation. Now it does make sense a lot. I didn’t expect to get the answer so quickly. Once again, thank you for taking the time to answer my question.

@@kats1978 You're welcome. I try to answer every (well-meaning) comment, because people who are serious about their learning (like you) are the people I created this channel for. It's not a fully commercial venture (the money I make does not reflect the time I put into it). Rather, it's a way to give back!

How can this be used to convince a loved one to agree to get therapy? As you know resistance to getting treatment is a huge issue while families suffer from the consequences of bad behavior from one member of the family, while others are doing their due diligence & getting help.

[@ManagementCourses]

I am not qualified to advise on this usage. I have no expertise in therapy. But I do wonder whether, if it were possible, it would be ethical. I understand the desire and the good intent behind it. But this feels a little like an attempt to manipulate, to me. I wish you and your family well.

[@f.4588]

@@ManagementCourses thank you for your prompt reply. Indeed it’s important to consider the ethics behind any of these suggestions. My intent here is not to manipulate but to ethically change a family member’s attitudes towards getting treatment for their own good. Thanks again.
