From the video

The pendulum: hand, nervous system, brain — and a subconscious yes and no.
Post-hypnotic suggestion and metaphor: a story that parallels the patient's own.
Analog marking: "When learning to cook from scratch, it's best if you're willing to ask someone who knows."
Phobias: the client in the projector booth, the front row, then inside the movie.

From the recording the pendulum

Advanced Hypnotherapy Training VideoAbout 9 minutes in

"The pendulum as I'm holding it here is suspended by my hand. My hand is connected through a nervous system to my brain. My brain is therefore controlling the pendulum. Now consciously I can influence the pendulum. I can cause it to swing. I can cause it to rotate.

"What if I wanted to establish a system through which I could communicate with my subconscious mind? What if I wanted to establish that this motion meant yes and this meant no? So I could tell my subconscious mind that this means yes and this means no. So now I'm going to tell my subconscious mind to move the pendulum in the yes direction."
