Just noticed the original post was butchered. This is what happens when the conscisous mind becomes aware of the trick that was played on its unconscious. Destruction of the information is the easiest way to deal with the uncomfortable realization. I'll piecemeal the original post back into place:

Ericksonian trance induction (named after Milton Erickson) has three dimensions which we will return to often and compare to Obama's language patterns. They are:

1. Pacing and distraction of the dominant (language) hemisphere;
2. Utilization of the dominant hemisphere, language processing which occurs below the level of awareness;
3. Accessing of the non-dominant hemisphere;

Dr. Erickson discovered while working as a therapist, that he could hide therapeutic hypnosis within the normal content of an inconspicuous conversation with the patient, and avoid much of the patient's conscious resistance that normally accompanied hypnotherapy. Dr. Erickson realized the subconscious mind was always listening, and understood better than anyone before how to access it, and implant suggestions into it. What Dr. Erickson did was figure out how to put people into trance and hypnotize them and implant suggestions with seemingly normal conversation.

The critical factor is the cognitive function best analogized to a security guard (critical factor) who searches every person (information) entering into a nightclub looking for weapons (and stops all information that is questionable). The critical factor stops all information and allows your thinking and rationality to determine whether it is acceptable to the subconscious mind or not. Hypnosis uses language patterns, visual tricks, body language, voice, tone, and other aspects of communication to get "suggestions" past the critical factor part of the brain and directly into the listener's subconscious.
