HYPNOSIS INTERVIEWS THAT TEACH

Most of you now know about our new http://www.banyanhypnosismall.com and I am thrilled at the feedback we have been receiving about it already.

You’ve got me thinking, “How can I make the mall even better?” I got the idea that we could sponsor interviews with some of the leading authorities in the field! And, we can broadcast them on the interview as a free online interview and question-and-answer program!

Now those of you who know me well know that I don’t like to hesitate. When I get an idea I want to implement it ASAP! I got on the phone and started sending out emails. Already I have THREE great experts set up to come to you live – THIS WEEK!

This is how it is going to work; I will interview each of them using webcams and you can watch us on your PC (sorry, not available on Macs). But it will be much better than that! When the interview is over, I will open up the conference to the attendees to ask questions. How great is that!?!

Here are the topics and experts that I have set up for this week:

• How Hypnotists Can Become a Successful Corporate Trainers and Consultants – with Dr. Richard Harte

• How to Market and Build Your Hypnosis Practice – with Elsom Eldridge, MA

• The Truth About the Ultra Depth® – with James Ramey, CH

Have I got your attention yet? I thought so.

Here are the details on each free interview:

THIS WEDNESDAY NIGHT:

How Hypnotists Can Become Successful Corporate Trainers and Consultants, with Dr. Richard Harte, who is famous for putting together the National Guild of Hypnotists’ Train the Trainer program. But most don’t know that he is one of THE most successful corporate trainers and consultants in the profession. He tells me that this is a very under-developed area of our profession and he is going to tell us all how to get involved in this lucrative area of hypnosis and hypnotherapy. This is all happening on Wednesday night November 2nd at 7:00 pm Central Time.

THIS THURSDAY NIGHT:

How to Market and Build Your Hypnosis Practice, with Elsom Eldridge, MA, occurs on the following Thursday night at 7:00 pm Central Time. In this free teleconference, I will be interviewing this master marketing consultant who will give you tips that you can use right now to start getting more clients through the door. And, let me tell you, Mr. Eldridge knows what he is talking about. He is the coauthor of How to Position Yourself As the Obvious Expert: Turbocharge Your Consulting or Coaching Business Now! and has been instrumental, to say the least, in promoting the National Guild of Hypnotists’ annual convention, turning it into the largest hypnosis convention in the world. He knows how to really get results when it counts. Remember that is Thursday night, November 3nd at 7:00 pm Central Time.

The Truth About the Ultra Depth®, with James Ramey, CH, will wrap up the week following my interview with Mr. Eldridge. Let me put this to you straight, no one knows more about Ultra Depth® than James Ramey. Ultra Depth® was first discovered by Walter Sicort and after Mr. Ramey studied the process with him for many years, he was then entrusted with this truly profound state of altered consciousness by Mr. Sicort himself. The purpose of this interview is to set the story straight about how it was developed, what it REALLY is, and what can be accomplished with it. Is it really the deepest level of hypnosis every discovered? Is it really a state of rapid and profound healing? Join us and learn the truth about this mystical state of consciousness. Remember that this interview will happen on November 3rd, right after Mr. Eldridge’s interview at 8:00 pm Central time.

You do NOT need a webcam to participate in these conferences!

Computer wise, all you need is a PC computer that is connected to the Internet. Broadband connections work best, but even dial-up will work (with some delay). To ask questions, you can either talk to use using a webcam, a microphone, or even by just typing text into the browser window.

Compliance vs Suggestibility

Have you ever thought about it? What is the difference between compliance and suggestibility?

I believe that as modern hypnotists and hypnotherapists we need working definitions for these terms. Doing so will make our profession stronger, and make it easier on our training and communication.

I want to offer a couple of simple definitions. Now before you read them, I want to stress that these may or may not be exactly what is found in the dictionary, and that doesn’t bother me one bit. Lay definitions are often different than the professional definitions of terms used by professionals in different fields.

So here goes:

1. Compliance: the willingness and ability to follow instructions given by a hypnotist.

2. Suggestibility occurs in varying levels, starting with the usual level of suggestiblity found in the non-hypnotized client. Suggestibility can be increased by hypnotizing the client, such that as the hypnosis deepens, the more profound effect the suggestions have a on how the client experiences reality. As the client becomes more suggesitible, greater hypnotic phenomenon can be exhibited ranging from simple eyelid catalepsy all the way up to hallucinations.

For more information about specific terms used in hypnosis go to my glossary page.

Creating 1%’ers

What is a 1%’er?

Well, it is the first day of class. I am teaching another Advanced Hypnotherapy course with 5-PATH™ and 7th Path Self-Hypnosis® and each time I this this course I have one goal in mind. I want produce 1%’ers! The 1%’er is the best of the best, the most dedicated of the dedicated, and the best trained of the best trained.

In the professional field of hypnosis and hypnotherapy. there are the professionals who are the most knowledgeable, the most successful and who use the most powerful techniques. Out of all of the hypnotherapists practicing in the world, these exceptional individuals are few and far between.

What Do the 1%’ers Do?

The 1%’er has a strong foundation, both philosophically, and technically in her profession. They have also used this advanced understanding and experience in their ongoing work, helping clients, and advancing the profession.

These exceptional hypnotists and hypnotherapists have these skills:

A deep intellectual understanding of their art as well as the factors that motivate, and inhibit human behavior. This understanding includes:

• Cognitive factors

• Emotional factors

• Suggestion

They have a solid training and ability to implement basic and advanced hypnosis techniques which include but are not limited to:

1. Ability to prepare and condition a client for success in a hypnosis session.

2. Ability to use modern and advanced hypnotic induction techniques such as: Rapid Hypnotic Inductions and Instant Hypnotic Inductions

3. Use of a variety of ways of bringing about the proper level of hypnosis.

4. Convincers

5. Overt and Covert Testing

6. Visual and Non-visual deepening Techniques

7. Verbal and Non-verbal deepening Techniques

8. Amnesic Techniques

9. Hypnotic Age Regression

10. Affect Bridge

11. Symptom Bridge

12. Cognitive Bridge

13. Uncovering Initial Sensitizing Events

14. Neutralizing Initial Sensitizing Events

15. Working with Symptom Producing Events

16. Working with Subsequent Sensitizing Events

17. Working with Revivification and Previvification

18. Creating Useful Positive and Negative Hallucinations

19. Parts Therapy to Neutralize Symptom Producing Emotions

20. Parts Therapy to Eliminate Secondary Gain Issues

21. Able to utilize appropriate paradigms, techniques and communication skills to bring about positive change in a wide range of issues including: Habit Change, Stress Reduction or Elimination, Performance Issues, Psychosomatic Illness, Relationship Issues

How Do I Become a 1%’er?

Becoming a 1%’er requires dedication, study and practice. The 1%’er is not a hobby hypnotist by any means. In most cases, the 1%’er is in the full time practice of hypnosis. She has sought out the very best training, and usually has had to travel to obtain training from one of the very best in the field. There are other instructors in the field who produce 1%’ers, but I can only think of one or two.

Our NGH Hypnotherapy Certification Program with 5-PATH® and 7th Path Self-Hypnosis®, as well as our Advanced Hypnotherapy Certification Program, were designed to produce 1%’ers. These training programs fulfill all of the above criteria, an aspiration the very, very few schools or programs in the world aspire to.

There is no better way to become a 1%’er in the field of hypnosis than starting with one of our programs.

Maybe I’ll see you in class,

Winston-Salem Journal | Hypnotized witness gives lead

READ ARTICLE

Did you know that some police departments employ the use of hypnotists who specialize in enhancing memory and recall to provide clues about crimes? Well they do, and this time hypnosis was used to provide a detailed sketch that has lead to further leads. I want them to catch this guy!

Forensic hypnosis has been around for a long time. But it is not a skill that your average hypnotist has mastered. This kind of hypnosis can include hypnotic age regression where the emphasis is on being fanatical about not leading or over directing the client. Because individuals who have been hypnotized are in a heightened state of suggestibility, if the hypnotist is not careful she can cause the client to image details that did not actually happen, contaminating the whole procedure, rendering and information useless. Or even worse, creating false memories that can cause the hypnotized individual to blame the wrong person for the crime!

So have you seen this guy? If so give the hypno-cops a call. Read the article. It’s interesting.
