Gypsy hypnosis in action: techniques, methods, methods of protection (8 photos)

Representatives of this nomadic people are found in almost every country. And the history of its appearance is so complex and confusing that it was even separated into a separate scientific field - gypsy studies.





The reputation of the gypsies is not the best: they often engage in fraud, selling unnecessary goods to gullible citizens or simply taking away everything that, in their opinion, is bad.

It is generally accepted that gypsies have a hypnotic gift and are capable of luring out money and valuables from fully grown and intelligent people. Is it really?



Of course, bright black-eyed beauties and wrinkled old women have no magical abilities. But women actually use Ericksonian hypnosis methods. Often without knowing it.

The basis of this technique was developed by the American psychiatrist Milton Erickson, and, interestingly, it is based on the methods of Indian culture. But the gypsies are of Indian origin.

How it works?



Actually, there is not much difference between Ericksonian and gypsy hypnosis. Both psychiatrists and uneducated women put people into a kind of trance with the help of a large number of leading questions. This way you can gradually extract a lot of information. Even carefully protected from strangers.

It is generally accepted that during hypnotic influence the right hemisphere of the brain is activated. What is responsible for creativity. And the work of the more logical left is weakened. And in connection with this, a person becomes suggestible, trusting and, accordingly, readily part with money and other valuables.



How do gypsies choose victims? Simple psychology. With a trained eye, they find people in a crowd who look worried or confused. It is clear that satisfied, happy and smiling people will not waste time on empty talk. And this category of citizens definitely has problems, and they can be hooked accordingly.

When contact is established, the gypsy begins to talk non-stop, literally drowning the victim in a sea of ​​words. He uses well-known gypsy expressions and affectionate addresses such as beauty, well done, golden, and others. At the same time, tactile action is also used: unobtrusive touch on the arm, shoulder, back. In this way, the scammer seems to destroy existing social barriers, instilling trust and friendship in the victim.



People part with money, jewelry and other valuables, giving them away as payment for removing damage or fortune-telling. Often gypsies work in pairs, and children dart around as a means of distraction.

How to avoid falling for this bait? Simply ignore the approaching fortune tellers, do not make eye contact, and avoid physical contact through active gestures. Realizing that there is no point in pestering further, the gypsies disappear into the crowd, because they do not want to waste time on an unpromising object. Of course, not everyone engages in this type of fraud, but in the modern world it is still quite common.
