pattern interrupt was first made famous
by Milton Erickson when people go to
shake his hand he would interrupt the
person by picking up their hand and
turning it back to their face and then
putting them through an induction and
then to finishing by basically finishing
the greeting shaking the persons hand
and saying my name is Milton Erickson,
the point of that was basically he would
interrupt the pattern that they were
going through that they were sort of on
autopilot doing when you go to shake
someone's hand kind of on autopilot
smoking doing here and close to the
other person you're expected to greet
them and would interrupt that it when
you interrupted an automated pattern
like that that normally engage in on
autopilot it makes you very susceptible
to going into a trance
so that's exactly what he would use it
for me but it was a quick way that he
could put somebody into a trance by
interrupting the normal
pattern that they would go through so
we're gonna be an experiment a little
bit with that today
another way to think of a pattern
interrupt the story I heard by our red
rather by Alan Watts the philosopher and
he said that whenever a person joins a
samurai group to be to learn how to be a
samurai they come in usually as boys and
they would come in and there they have
to basically clean the dojo that between
everything and as they would be cleaning
as they're earning their keep one of the
Masters would walk in and take a window
fencing sword so it's made out of bamboo
and crack them over the head with it and
this would go on for days the samurai in
training least expected it
the master samurai would come in and
crack over to hack and then he became
paranoid and freaked out about it always
looking over shoulder and waiting for
that to happen and then the samurai
master would find ways to still
surprised and crack him over the head
with the kendo fencing sword to the
point where eventually the student just
gave and he gave up his paranoia he gave
up looking and just gave in to the
process and then he became ready to
learn his first lessons so that's in a
sense a type of pattern around i have an
assistant this is ryan and Ryan's gonna
help me with demonstrating onto pattern
in the rough that I like to play around
with brian has no he'll be back around
and no hypnosis background so she has no
idea what I'm about to be right along
so you're 30
When I was your age I was 31 so that
could be considered a pattern interrupt
because it devised what a person would
normally say in a situation like that a
pattern of thinking for the pattern of
interaction and follows after night
slices of how old ru they tell you their
age maybe I'll make a comment about it
but what I meant what I said just now
made absolutely no sense so it kind of
throws a person into a spin for a second
to figure out a day does that make sense
of how does it okay
no it doesn't make sense of and carry on
the conversation now the other one we're
going to do is one that milton erickson
used to do but you don't see a whole lot
of actually got this office Steve Andreas
his blog so we're going to have you
close your eyes and just relax and maybe
feel the floor concrete in a to feed its
gonna feel grounded in nicely marks and
just take a deep breath and can you
shake your head now
no you can sew but that's not know so
she shakes her head no and I can say no
you can't do it you don't know how to do
it and so it's interrupting our normal
pattern because she did the activity now
some people will say yes and if they do
that i'll save what you didn't do it so
I again once again interrupting her
you're not letting her have it either
way and what Milton Erickson would do he
would have this back and forth until the
person sort of gave into it and gave it
to the ambiguity and gave into the
confusion and then he didn't put them
into a smooth induction that would
follow right after
so what's the point of the pattern
interrupt one of the pattern interrupt
is NLP neuro-linguistic programming
programming part is also known as
patterns as well so you have set
behavioral patterns that you follow
along with most of time on auto pilot
and whether it's in a sales situation or
negotiating are in any situation where
persons just runnin their normal
patterns might be useful to get them out
of those patterns for example go to a
clothing storm soon as you walked in the
clerk walks up to you and says and I
help you with something and we see no
thinking walking and then a few seconds
later we turn around realize winner
I didn't know what I just say no I said
no because i'm running a pattern that
I'm used to that I started selling
something I don't want to sell me
something so i just say no and keep
walking
also known as we need to interrupt those
patterns if you're in a sales situation
and they could be many other situation
for your just need to teach someone something
in order to teach someone something are
to have them follow along with you are
to close the sale you might have to
interrupt that pattern of thinking so
you interrupt the pattern using use a
number of different things already
questioned it could be an action is a
famous story about Tony Robbins throwing
water in a woman face when she was
talking about how bad her life was and
every time she would start to do that he would throw
the water in her face and interrupt that
pattern to the point where she couldn't
go back to that pattern for a pattern
interrupt extremely powerful when you
need to get someone out of their normal
routine way of thinking for their normal
behavior pattern you can interrupt that
and then once they are out of their
normal pattern there isn't a state of a
bit of confusion and there at that point
there is a good time to leave them where
you want them to go or lead them to what
would be for help or beneficial for them
