From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hypnosis is a mental state (state theory) or set of attitudes (non-state theory) usually induced by a procedure known as a hypnotic induction, which is commonly composed of a series of preliminary instructions and suggestions.[1] Hypnotic suggestions may be delivered by a hypnotist in the presence of the subject, or may be self-administered (”self-suggestion” or “autosuggestion”). The use of hypnotism for therapeutic purposes is referred to as “hypnotherapy“.
The words ‘hypnosis’ and ‘hypnotism’ both derive from the term “neuro-hypnotism” (nervous sleep) coined by the Scottish physician and surgeon James Braid around 1841. Braid based his practice on that developed by Franz Anton Mesmer and his followers (”Mesmerism” or “animal magnetism“), but differed in his theory as to how the procedure worked.
Although a popular misconception is that hypnosis is a form of unconsciousness resembling sleep, contemporary research suggests that it is actually a wakeful state of focused attention[2] and heightened suggestibility,[3] with diminished peripheral awareness.[4] In the first book on the subject, Neurypnology (1843), Braid described “hypnotism” as a state of physical relaxation accompanied and induced by mental concentration (”abstraction”).[5]

Discover wat makes Hypnosis such a powerful tool for change and the “SECRETS” behind successful hypnosis.
This is not a certification course, so do not ask if we offer certification. However you will experience it first hand as well as be able to put other class members in a hypnotic state for therapeutic purposes. Though many organizations claim that it is impossible to properly learn hypnosis in just two full days, I beg to differ. Of course, they have to justify charging you any where from $1,600 to $2,000, and throw in a plastic pendulum to claim they give you something extra!
