In my essay I will discuss the importance of a personalize induction in relaxation.

As we know, every one is different , this difference is not only outside but inside as well. We not only look different but we have different characters built on base of genes preferences, as well the influences of our parents and friends, schools, age and life experience. This is why it is so important when making the first contact with our clients.

We have to be able to gain their trust and get as much information about their history, their likes and dislikes, background, hobby's, fears, allergies, history of illness and if possible medication. Initial consultation is a time for acquiring information and finding out client's history in order to personalize an induction. A person's preferences and modalities are not always stable and can change in order to a situation. This is why the induction has to be flexible and by trying to get an idea of which modality our clients prefer, it will help them to feel more comfortable. We use all of our senses in different situations but all of us will have a favourite one of which we are more comfortable although it is beneficial to use all the senses when trying to build a safe and comfortable space for a client. A compounding combination of all modalities is far more effective to achieve a deep hypnotic state.

In hypnosis we divide senses into three primary groups and three secondary groups.

The primary groups are:

They may have a soft lower or deeper tone to their voice and speak with pauses in their speech. They may have rounded shoulders and the LEM ( Lateral Eye Movements) will be usually down to the right. They may use phrases like "I know how you feel", "hold on a moment", "Put your finger on it".

Visual- Our sight. Those people have a tendency to daydream, fantasise and use the imagination. Very often interested in films, TV, design and art. They can be pedantic because they like things to look good. The LEM likely to be defocused or looking up to the left or right. They may use phrases like "I see what you mean", "The
