Ericksonian Hypnosis
Level 1
Although the roots and use of hypnotic
trance date back to ancient civilizations, its use became
endorsed by the medical and psychological community of UK
and US in the 1950's. Ericksonian hypnosis is a term describing
the work of the late Dr. Milton Erickson, who successfully
conducted therapy sessions with over 30,000 patients. He was
renowned for using hypnosis in an elegant conversational and
intuitive manner which respected the individuality of the
clients with whom he worked. Prior to Dr. Erickson, Hypnosis
was authoritarian and scripted. By contrast Ericksonian hypnotherapy
engages the cooperation principle and deep levels of rapport,
resulting in a heightened level of success and ecology.
During this intensive two (2) day seminar you will learn how
to induce hypnotic trance elegantly and conversationally and
in a more intuitive and flexible way. When we use hypnosis
we are able to tap into the vast potential of our unconscious
mind's wonderful ability to make long and lasting personal
changes.
This training is ideal for: NLP Practitioners,
NLP Master Practitioners, coaches, therapists, body workers,
teachers, doctors, dentists, healers, hypnotherapists, and
those who would like to further develop their communication
skills. It is also very valuable for the Hypnotherapist who
has not been trained in Ericksonian techniques…and those members
of the public who are the plain curious.
During this course you will learn:
• To deepen your connection with your inner mind
• How to use hypnosis with yourself and others
• How the Mind functions
• How to induce hypnotic trance conversationally
• How to take clients through a change process
• How to give hypnotic suggestions and posthypnotic suggestions
• How to recognize and utilize every day trance states
• Suggestibility Testing
• Pacing and Leading
• Hypnotic Language Patterns for success
• Elegant Hypnotic Inductions
• Trance deepening
• Direct and Indirect Suggestion
Most of all you will learn a lot and have fun. You will laugh,
feel inspired and enjoy the feelings of working in trance
yourself! It is a great flow state for the practitioner to
work in, as you learn to more deeply trust your inner mind
and intuition. Trance work is transformational and has a ripple
effect into all areas of life. Join us for two fun, challenging
and fruitful days of trance!
