How To Learn Anything 10x Faster - Hypnosis Technique - Deep Trance Identification

Summary

The video presents Deep Trance Identification (DTI) as the “generative” part of the instructor’s Identity by Design framework. Unlike techniques described as remedial—which address something believed to be missing or incorrectly learned—DTI is presented as a way to deliberately adopt qualities, skills, or states associated with chosen role models or “avatars.”

The instructor’s central recommendation is to use a filter: focus on the traits you want to develop rather than trying to take on every aspect of an exemplar’s personality or life.

Demonstration Process

The instructor guides volunteer Jay through a hypnotic visualization:

1. Relax and deepen the trance. Jay is given suggestions to relax, focus on the instructor’s voice, and enter a deeper state.
2. Imagine leaving the body and entering a special inner space. The visualization leads Jay through a light into a familiar gray, dome-shaped room containing a glowing “magic circle.”
3. Choose an avatar. Jay is invited to summon people or characters who represent qualities he wants. The instructor describes an imagined exchange of energy and information between Jay and each avatar.
4. Merge with the avatar. Jay is guided to step into the figure and experience the world from their perspective—seeing, hearing, feeling, and thinking as they do.
5. Absorb selected qualities. The instructor asks Jay to imagine living through the avatar’s relevant experiences, repeatedly and rapidly, while taking only the qualities and skills he wants.
6. Separate and express gratitude. Once the desired traits feel integrated, Jay is asked to step out, thank the avatar, and dismiss it.
7. Repeat with another avatar if desired. The process can be used with more than one figure.
8. Revisit the magic circle in the future. The instructor suggests Jay can return to the imagined space and summon qualities whenever he wants to express or practise them.
9. Future-pace the changes. Jay is guided to imagine himself one week, one month, six months, and a year later, noticing how he has developed and what results he has achieved.
10. Trace the route back to the present. The imagined “footprints” along the way are framed as a roadmap for Jay’s unconscious mind to follow toward his goal.
11. Return to ordinary awareness. The instructor counts Jay out of the trance and gives reinforcing suggestions about expressing the traits, finding solutions to challenges, and feeling at ease.

During the demonstration, Jay later reports seeing Merlin and Indiana Jones. The instructor says he has personally used a range of exemplars and notes that the process can be done with one person or several.

The session also includes claims and imagery intended to support the exercise, such as references to chakras, energy transfer, and oxytocin. These are presented as part of the instructor’s hypnotic framing, not as claims established or independently verified within the subtitles.
