Up to now the “5-PATH® Association” has been a virtual association with hundreds of members around the world. We are now moving ahead and will be formalizing the association and establishing Charter Memberships.
The mission of this organization will be to promote the hypnosis profession through promotion of 5-PATH® and other advanced hypnotherapeutic techniques. The association will provide basic and advanced hypnosis training, and provide venues for communication and support between those in the profession, those wanting to enter into the profession, and those outside of the profession who would like to learn more about it, including the media and general public.
To be a member of 5-PATH® IAHP, a candidate must have graduated from a Banyan Hypnosis Center for Training & Services, Inc. approved hypnosis or hypnotherapy course in which 5-PATH® was a major part of the curriculum, and be current on any dues established by the organization.
Here are some of the benefits of 5-PATH® IAHP Membership:
- Inclusion in the online 5-PATH® Hypnosis Directory
- Membership NGH Special Interests Group
- Membership in 5-PATH® support group on Yahoo
- Membership link for websites to credentials page
- Qualifies for optional programs: special advertising programs, Certified Professional Hypnotherapy Instructor (CPHI) program, and 5-PATH® Member activities and functions such as the Annual Reunion and Awards Dinner at the National Guild of Hypnotists Convention and upcoming 5-PATH® Members Annual Get Together.
Charter Memberships are now available at the introductory rate of just $25.00 for a one year membership. (Membership will increase to $35.00 and Charter Memberships will not longer be available starting January 1, 2007.) All new 5-PATH® graduates automatically become members and the first year’s membership fee is included in their tuition.
Together as members of the 5-PATH® IAHP we can build a better future for the profession, as we work with other organizations such as the National Guild of Hypnotists, National Federation of Hypnotists Union and the National Health Freedom Organization. We hope that all 5-PATHers around the world will join our association and become charter members. For more information email us at Maureen@HypnosisCenter.com or call our office at 714-258-8380.
Our very first off site grads have graduated! Next comes the first ever, National Guild of Hypnotists Certification Course offered online.
But before that class starts I thought you might like to hear the feedback we are getting from our off-site grads. We just received this today from Mark.
“I would like to thank and congratulate Cal and Maureen Banyan for a great achievement in expanding their 5-PATH® & 7th Path Self-Hypnosis® beyond the traditional classroom. This week I attended the classroom “live and online – off-site” Week of Power Advanced Hypnotherapy 5 & 7th Path on my computer and highly recommend it as a valuable learning experience. It had the discipline of the classroom and all the possibilities of participation such as asking questions and participating with other students. Also any hand outs or information that the students in the class received, I also received in the mail the same day indicating how well it was orchestrated. Thanks again for this wonderful learning system of hypnosis. ”
Mark Darougar, CH, Huntington, New York
That is Mark as he appeared to us during the class. Using his webcam he was able to interact with the class, and I was even able to check his technique as he practiced what he learned in class while working with his practice partner.
Thank you so much for the feedback Mark. It was a real pleasure having you “in class.” I hope others will read your feedback and decide to take our training this way.
All 5-PATH® Certified Hypnotherapists and other advanced hypnotherapists know that when you do age regression work, some very powerful and painful emotions can come up. And, as a result, some of those clients will not return for more sessions. I call those clients, “Runaways.”
In this Podcast I make some important announcements, and then go over 5 things that you can use to greatly reduce the number of clients who do not come back for their sessions after experiencing a painful age regression session.
Mastering these 5 techniques will greatly enable you do increase your success rate when doing hypnotic age regression therapy. And, as far as I am concerned, age regression therapy is the most powerful tool available to any hypnotist who has learned how to use it effectively.
I hope you enjoy the program, and if you have any suggestions for future topics please let us me know.

Here is the follow-up to the Cal Talks to the Docs message I posted a few days ago. The whole thing was fantastic. I was introduced by Dr. Eric Robins who suggested me as a speaker. He set things up extremely well for me by making a connection between what we as 5-PATH® Hypnotherapists do and how we can help the physician’s patients.Here is the feedback I received from Dr. Eric Robins: |
Cal,
I’m writing you to let you know that you did a truly unbelievable job when you spoke to the Physician’s Well-Being group today.
I was extremely proud to have suggested you as a speaker because you did a world class job. It was outstanding and your talk far exceeded my expectations and got me re-energized about doing hypnosis.
Cal, you had a room full of physicians captivated. I’ll say it again, it was outstanding and you did a really great job. You should give that talk to more physicians! I’ll help get the word out.
Thanks,
Eric Robins, MD
Afterwards, several doctors came up to me to buy books and have them autographed. They were especially interested in my book, The Secret Language of Feelings. I also found that some of them wanted to talk about sessions for themselves (remember, doctors are people too). I was told that my talk actually brought some of them to tears, and that my talk “resonated” with some of their own issues (I gave them a brief case history about the amazing story of how a client who went through 5-PATH® with me regained his sight, which is a very touching story in itself).
I think that what appealed to this audience most was how old programming from the past can cause so many problems now, ranging from bad habits to addictions, and chronic illness to psychosomatic illness.
All around it was a wonderful experience. My impression of the Kaiser Permanente physicians was that they are a very professional, courteous, attentive and open minded group of medical professionals. I hope to speak to them again some time, and I would love to help them in any way that I can so that they can begin to integrate high level hypnotherapy (i.e. 5-PATH®) into their programs.

I want to pass along any good news pertaining to hypnosis when I run across it. It looks like there is some serious research going on assessing the usefulness of hypnosis in reducing labor pain.
According to Medical News Today: Hypnosis reduces the need for drug pain relief in labor, lessens the need for medications that augment labor and increases the number of spontaneous vaginal births, according to the available data.
