This book presents the traditional Visual Squash in a detailed, easy to follow manner so you can begin using it immediately. It also illustrates variations including, the Conversational and Deep Trance squashes. Finally you will discover how to apply this powerful pattern in your business and personal life. "This book dives deep into one of my favorite NLP patterns. I teach this process in my classes because it encapsulates many of the most important principles behind good change work. Knowing the authors, as I do, I expected a well thought out and presented overview and breakdown of the visual squash and all it's variations. This book exceeded those expectations in so many ways and on so many levels. Yes, they deliver the most comprehensive treatment of this pattern that I've ever read, and believe, has ever been written. But, even better, they use this platform to cover the most crucial elements of lasting, generative change that goes way beyond the pattern and into the very nature of change itself. In this book you will learn a complex system that aligns all levels of experience from the behavioral up to identity, covering and uncovering the values, beliefs and unconscious motivations behind the problems and, more importantly, the solutions. Shawn and Jess make sure to give you many different ways of adapting this process to fit any client in any context. From a purely conversational approach more appropriate for a business coach to a deep trance variation perfect for a hypnosis session, you are guaranteed to find useful ways of implementing these ideas. The authors also cover some key linguistic concepts, from temporal and spatial predicates to the whys and hows of addressing nominalizations. This is learning that changes every aspect of the therapeutic/coaching interaction by teaching multi level communication that speaks directly to the unconscious mind. And this, in my opinion, changes everything." Melissa Tiers

A book for all hypnotherapists and healers.

You will learn how to break down core nature and the psychology of different emotional issues. In addition, you will see how I successfully worked with various clients using only waking/covert hypnosis. One of the practical results of my work with these people is that it will answer in absolute terms the below questions, which professional hypnotists and hypnotherapists have been weighing and discussing for centuries: 1. Can a person be hypnotized without his or her consent? 2. Can a person be hypnotized without his or her knowledge? 3. Does rapport need to be established for hypnosis to work? 4. Does a person need to be motivated for hypnosis to work?

This book contains a revolutionary new system for Past-Life Regression and Imagery Therapy called The IRE Approach . Learn inductions, deepening techniques, how to facilitate past-life regression therapy sessions and imagery sessions and other crucial hypnotherapy techniques. This book is a MUST HAVE for therapists I.R.E. stands for "Imaginative Role-Enactment." This is a complete hypnotherapy system created by Certified Master Hypnotist Christopher S. Harris. "Most Past-Life Regression Therapists are approaching the technique as true to life - They will tell you that they are actually taking you back to a time that you have lived before. But The IRE Approach does not assume that you believe in Past-Lives and we do not propose that that is what we are doing. The IRE Approach treats Past-Life Regression as Imaginative Role-Enactment and so the topic of "reincarnation" and the risk of conflicting with the client's belief system is never an issue. This approach is a Godsend to hypnotherapists specializing in Past-Life Regression therapy because now by framing the procedure in a different way it is accessible for use with every client. You are no longer forced to use a modality that you think is less-effective for the client's particular issue just because your chosen technique is controversial. Unlike what many therapists believe, the value of PLR isn't in going back to real past lives. The value is rekindling the very nature of humanity What do I mean by this? I believe that imagination is one of the fundamental parts of being human - Every one of us is born with the innate ability to imagine, play, and pretend. But what happens to children that play with imaginary friends? We are discouraged from play and imaginary social interactions to the point that it becomes so deeply repressed that it takes intensive therapy to uncover what fragments remain. This is so sad if you think about it. We have buried our inner child until barely any remains. We have cut off a mental limb. Allowing a place with no judgment or ridicule and actually encouraging the redevelopment of imagination has always been the true value of PLR, whether the practitioners knew it or not. It is this Imaginative Role-Enactment that we consider to be our client's biggest tool for self-discovery in The IRE Approach ."

ELMAN INDUCTION A very effective rapid hypnosis induction created by Dave Elman. It is considered the best guaranteed induction by many hypnotists since it is completely permissive and relies upon he subject to pace themselves into trance with the help of the hypnotist. Created by Dave Elman the renowned hypnotist, author and radio show host. Below is the Elman induction word for word. However it was originally used in 1963, that's fifty years ago, it is still generally accepted that it is a basis for a good induction but needs updating due to the wording being outdated but also there is quite a lot of questioning of the subject and this may have a tendency to unravel the trance slightly. Especially if there is any misunderstanding. So first will be the induction in pure form and next my own modified version. The Elman induction: Will you just take a good long deep breath and close your eyes...now relax the muscles around your eyes to the point where those eye muscles won't work and when you're sure they won't work....test them and make sure they won't work... ...And so on... Hope you enjoyed this sample of part of the E's. HAPPY READING And of course HAPPY ZAPPING

This text presents a new approach to the use of hypnotic suggestion. For years, hypnotherapists have used scripts which are aimed at a particular problem, like smoking or weight loss, rather than aiming at the client who smokes or has weight issues. Trevor Silvester suggests that it is not the problem that is the problem; it's the client's unique relationship with the problem that's the problem. The book aims to free you from the constraints of scripts and enable you to use your creative skill to weave subtle spells that empower your clients by changing their model of reality. It presents the science behind suggestion, and the means of using that science to create magical ways of influencing others. Using research from neuroscience, evolutionary psychology and NLP, Silvester covers such topics as: how past learning guides us now, and how misinterpretation of our childhood experiences can shape our present; how much of our behaviour is unconscious and often not in our direct control; the matrix model of behaviour that can accurately map the process of a problem; and how our neurological levels organize our version of reality. "Wordweaving" takes this knowledge and integrates it into a modern understanding of hypnosis to form a step-by-step method for learning powerful hypnotic language. The "Wordweaving" system teaches you how to: aim suggestions specifically at the key points of the client's problem; resolve problems by using the natural trance states we experience while "doing" the problem; and linguistically frame the suggestion using the elegant and subtle language patterns from NLP to give it maximum impact.

Combine these qualities with a charming sense of humor and the reader will enjoy learning about hypnotism's bizarre, odd, and unusual phenomena. - Edith Fiore, PhD, Clinical Psychologist (Retired)

In this completely revised, updated and expanded volume, the editors have brought together some of the field's most outstanding contributors to examine the wide-ranging applications and promise of the use of hypnosis with children. The book develops core principles of clinical hypnosis with children and adolescents and each contributor delineates how they apply these precepts in a range of psychological and medical settings. The result is a constellation of perspectives and clinical applications that move the reader beyond literature review to practical advice. In Part 1 the broad framework of hypnosis with children is elucidated: concepts, developmental considerations, approaches to induction, hypnotic ability, hypnosis with families and ethical considerations are reviewed. Additionally, the implications of a developmental perspective in hypnosis are extrapolated to work with adults. Parts 2 and 3 illuminate key psychological and medical applications of hypnosis. In the psychological realm, trauma, habit disorders, somatoform disorders, depression, anxiety and behavioural disorders are scrutinized. A particularly original chapter explores the use of clinical hypnosis with the family as the patient. The medical section describes the integration of hypnosis from acute care settings to the operating room; in pain management, chronic diseases, elimination disorders, recurrent pain and palliative care. Throughout the book, clinical vignettes draw the reader into the hypnotic encounter while supportive evidence, strategies and caveats provide insights. This unique combination of literature review, diverse clinical perspective, and "how-to-do-it" clinical integration makes the second edition an essential book required on the desk of all clinicians who strive to build person-centred, creative, mind-body therapies into their clinical care of children and adolescents. It will be of immeasurable value to both the experienced clinician and the beginning practitioner. Original ISBN 9781845900373

Subliminal Therapy is a technique by which hypnotic phenomena can be used for therapeutic purposes without the need for formal trance induction and can be used either on its own or in addition to other treatment. In this book readers are introduced to the concepts and applications of Subliminal Therapy and are taught how to use it. Subliminal Therapy engages the unconscious to uncover the causes of clients' problems, whether manifesting physically, emotionally, intellectually or behaviourally, and then to resolve those problems through re-framing and re-conditioning. It provides a practical, efficient and logical way to identify the causes of psychogenic problems and to resolve their influence. Although Subliminal Therapy may be a new concept for professionals it has evolved over the past thirty years into a highly efficient form of treatment. The technique has proved especially effective in the treatment of anxiety and the effects of early abuse such as sexual dysfunction, unresolved anger and psychogenic medical problems.
