This Is A New Release Of The Original 1891 Edition.
Hypnotism is a largely misunderstood subject, I suppose. But it may
be easily learned by anyone interested, as with any other subject
on earth right? Is it magic? Voodoo? Or is it a spell that one can
cast upon others? Now, there's actually more of it than the thought
of a stage magician ordering an assistant to float on air with a
magic word and a wave of his hand. Or, a doctor softly telling a
patient to close their eyes and believe in what he says. You may be
surprised to learn that some magicians, psychologists and stage
artists have had successes in demonstrating the effects of
hypnotism, which is a real marvel and mystery to the uninitiated.
In reality, hypnotism can be understood in terms of what it is not.
With that said, one becomes free of the anxiety and misconception
that are usually evoked when talking about the subject. Hypnotism
may have been largely used, or even misused, by an unsuspecting
public with both the practitioner as well as the subject person
eager to do it for their own reasons. This little book may help
explain what it is, and what it is not.
Roger P. Allen's Scripts and Strategies in Hypnotherapy: The
complete works presents a comprehensive source of scripts and
strategies that can be used by hypnotherapists to build a
successful framework for any therapy session. This book - or, to be
more specific, this revised and updated compendium of Volumes I and
II - is designed to be of assistance to all therapists as they
unlock the possibilities that exist for their clients and help them
make significant and beneficial changes to their perceptions and
beliefs. Upon compiling it, Allen's ultimate aim was to provide
practitioners with the best toolkit of strategies possible, replete
with a variety of practical scripts to serve as the basis for their
interventions, derived from his own experiences as a therapist. It
covers inductions, deepeners and actual scripts for a wide range of
cases; from nail biting to insomnia, sports performance to past
life recall, speech difficulty to loss and bereavement, pain
management to resolving sexual problems, and more.There is a
particularly comprehensive section on smoking cessation, including
a specimen questionnaire for use during the initial interview as
well as useful content for a leaflet on the dangers of smoking to
give to clients to take away with them following the session. All
of the scripts can be used as they stand, or adapted as necessary
for specific situations and for client-specific needs and concerns.
Suitable for hypnotherapists of all levels of experience.
