Mastery Via Trance

Meta‑Trance: The Art of Transitioning to Higher States

Step into the Meta‑Place and Master the Architecture of Your Inner World

Have you ever been so absorbed in a book, a film, a prayer, or a deep conversation that the outside world disappeared?

That was not an accident.
That was trance.

Mastery Via Trance is a complete training in how to recognize, enter, direct, and design trance states intentionally—for learning, healing, coaching, leadership, creativity, and self‑actualization.

This course is based on Meta‑States, Neuro‑Semantics, and Ericksonian hypnotic language, as developed by L. Michael Hall, Ph.D., and represents a fundamental shift from traditional hypnosis.

Instead of going down into the unconscious, you will learn to go UP into Meta‑Trance—into the higher frames of mind that organize meaning, identity, time, and behavior.

This is not entertainment hypnosis.
This is executive‑level mind architecture.


What Is Meta‑Trance?

Meta‑Trance is the art of using self‑reflexive consciousness—your mind’s ability to think about its own thinking—to:

  • Create higher‑order states (meta‑states)
  • Install empowering frames of reference
  • De‑hypnotize limiting beliefs
  • Design trance states that produce lasting change

In Neuro‑Semantics, every meta‑state is already a trance.

This course teaches you how to:

  • Recognize the trances you are already living in
  • Exit unuseful trances
  • Enter resourceful trances
  • Design new states of consciousness deliberately

What You Will Learn in This Course

Through structured lessons, guided inductions, and applied patterns, you will move from being a passenger in your own mind to becoming the Director and Architect of your internal world.

1. Trance as an Inward & Upward Focus

  • The true nature of trance as an inward shift of attention
  • Why trance is natural, continuous, and unavoidable
  • The difference between uptime (external focus) and downtime (internal focus)
  • Why trance is not “sleep” but heightened absorption

You will learn to enter trance without rituals, scripts, or formal inductions.


2. The Language of Trance

You will master the two primary linguistic engines of hypnotic communication:

The Meta‑Model (De‑Hypnotizing)

  • How language deletes, distorts, and generalizes experience
  • How to break negative trances using precision questioning
  • How to pull people out of toxic beliefs and emotional loops

The Milton Model (Hypnotic Language)

  • Using artful vagueness to invite internal search
  • Nominalizations, presuppositions, cause‑effect, ambiguity
  • Conversational hypnosis and embedded commands
  • Hypnotic pacing, leading, and utilization

You will learn how language literally moves consciousness up or down levels.


3. Meta‑States as Trance States

This is the core of Meta‑Trance.

You will learn:

  • How thoughts‑about‑thoughts create stable realities
  • How beliefs, values, identity, and time are meta‑states
  • Why fear of fear, confidence about anxiety, or curiosity about confusion are trance structures
  • How to texture primary states with higher resources

Every Meta‑State is a hypnotic frame.
This course teaches you to install them consciously.


4. Genius States & Flow Inductions

You will learn how to design and install Genius States—high‑performance trance states characterized by:

  • Focus without strain
  • Learning without effort
  • Timelessness (“the eternal now”)
  • Full presence under pressure

You will practice:

  • Genius Inductions
  • Flow state access
  • Meta‑blessings and meta‑invocations
  • Speaking trance into yourself and others

5. Time as a Meta‑Level Phenomenon

Time does not exist at the primary level—only events do.

You will learn to:

  • Access the meta‑state of Time
  • Work with time‑lines consciously
  • De‑hypnotize the past
  • Re‑story personal history
  • Collapse future resources into the present

This includes:

  • Time distortion (fast and slow time)
  • Narrative re‑framing
  • Changing decisions made “back then”
  • Creating new personal futures

6. Somatic & Emotional Transformation

You will master advanced trance processes such as:

  • The Drop‑Down Through Pattern
  • Releasing pain, trauma, and emotional loops
  • Accessing the Void and Pure Potentiality
  • Moving through layers of experience into positive kinesthetic states

These are body‑based, neurological processes, not intellectual insights.


7. Trance in Coaching, Leadership, and Daily Life

You will learn how to:

  • Use trance conversationally
  • Facilitate change without force
  • Coach at the level of identity and meaning
  • Move ideas from the mind into the muscles
  • Close the Knowing‑Doing Gap

This makes Meta‑Trance a core competency for Meta‑Coaches, leaders, therapists, trainers, and educators.


Who This Course Is For

This course is designed for:

  • NLP Master Practitioners
  • Meta‑Coaches
  • Therapists and helping professionals
  • Leaders, trainers, and educators
  • Anyone committed to self‑actualization and conscious evolution

If you want surface techniques, this is not the course.
If you want structural mastery of consciousness, you are in the right place.


A Simple Analogy

Most people live inside unconscious trances.

They are passengers on a train, unaware of:

  • Who laid the tracks
  • Where the train is going
  • Why it keeps looping the same destinations

Mastery Via Trance teaches you to step into the control room.

You learn to:

  • See the tracks (time‑lines and narratives)
  • Remove old hypnotic structures
  • Lay new rails intentionally
  • Drive your mind toward chosen outcomes

Outcome of the Course

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Enter and exit trance states at will
  • Design meta‑states deliberately
  • Use hypnotic language ethically and precisely
  • Facilitate deep, lasting transformation
  • Operate from higher frames of consciousness

This is not about control over others.
This is about mastery of meaning.
