 Reinforcing the trance: At the end of the session, the hypnotist might use fractionation to reinforce the hypnotic state and help the client maintain the trance after they leave the session. For example, they might have the client count backwards from 10 to 1, alternating between focusing on their breathing and relaxing their body.
-In the field of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), fractionation is a technique that is used to induce a trance state in a person by repeatedly bringing them in and out of hypnosis. Here are some examples of fractionation techniques in NLP:
+Here are some examples of fractionation techniques in Hypnosis:
+  - The movie technique: This is a technique where the hypnotherapist asks the person to visualize a short movie in their mind, and then interrupts the visualization several times.
+  - The spinning technique: This is a technique where the hypnotherapist asks the person to focus on a spinning object or a point and then interrupts the focus repeatedly.
+  - The anchoring technique: This is a technique where the hypnotherapist creates an anchor or trigger for the person to enter into a trance state, and then interrupts the state several times.
+  - Eye fixation: The hypnotherapist may ask the person to focus their gaze on a specific point, and then interrupt their concentration by asking them to focus on something else.
+  - Arm levitation: The hypnotherapist may ask the person to raise their arm and then interrupt the process by telling them to lower their arm.
+  - Deepening techniques: The hypnotherapist may use deepening techniques such as counting down from 10 to 1, and then interrupt the count several times
+  - Breathing techniques: The hypnotherapist may ask the person to take deep breaths and then interrupt the process several times
-  - The handshake interrupt: This is a technique where the NLP practitioner interrupts the person's handshake repeatedly, bringing them in and out of hypnosis.
-  - The movie technique: This is a technique where the NLP practitioner asks the person to visualize a short movie in their mind, and then interrupts the visualization several times, bringing the person in and out of trance.
-  - The spinning technique: This is a technique where the NLP practitioner asks the person to focus on a spinning object or a point and then interrupts the focus repeatedly, bringing the person in and out of trance.
-  - The confusion technique: This is a technique where the NLP practitioner deliberately confuses the person by giving them conflicting suggestions or instructions, bringing the person in and out of trance.
-  - The anchoring technique: This is a technique where the NLP practitioner creates an anchor or trigger for the person to enter into a trance state, and then interrupts the state several times, bringing the person in and out of trance.
 Fractionation by alternating the frame of a message can be a powerful tool for changework and can be  used in various forms of communication, including political campaigns, advertising, and in therapy conversations. For example, famous and well documented (see [[recursive_frame_analysis|]]) speeches using fractionation with alternating frames are Martin Luther Kings "I have a dream" and Steve Jobs iPhone launch presentation:
