Hypnosis

A practical and fascinating modern therapist’s manual for using hypnosis to deal with many different psychological problems, including multiple personalities and spirit possession. These therapies are powerful tools for spiritual and emotional healing. They even have the capacity to return apparently “crazy” people from insanity to fully functional “normal” human beings.

The authors are both certified hypnotherapists, who work in private practice and their own hypnotherapy school. This book blends personal stories with practical details and case examples of the application of hypnotherapy for a wide variety of applications. Includes neuro-muscular response (NMR) techniques for bypassing the conscious mind to gain insightful information on health problems, toxic sensitivity to certain materials, optimal paths, and so on. Also contains information on spirit possession, past-life regressions, and “channeled” information. Not as traditional as the other references, but very interesting and informative.

This book provides numerous techniques for beginners to professionals. It comes highly praised by both hypnotherapists and psychologists. If the narrower focus of self-hypnosis is what interests you, try Roy Hunter’s Master the Power of Self-Hypnosis. For information on the broader topic of hypnotherapy, try The Art of Hypnotherapy by the same author.

This fine book gives an excellent introduction to the brilliant, highly successful, and uncommon approach to counseling and hypnotherapy as practiced by Milton Erikson. Whether you are a professional therapist, or simply struggling with the problems of raising children or dealing with difficult people, this book is sure to provide valuable insight.
