In this module we can play with how to begin to put the components together to create a hypnosis session with any client.
My invitation is to play with this structure, download the pdf file, make your own variations, and as soon as you're ready, put it behind you, or you may want to avoid it totally - whatever is useful for your learning.

Hi Rob, Before finding you and beginning this training I have taken several live and online trainings some better than others to me. The Erickson approaches taught through a NLP lens tend to be very structured and complex and in many ways intrigue my intellect, but I am enjoying this very gentle style and learning much more. Thank you again for the freedom to explore and create in such an EASY useful way.
I just finished a great session. It was so much fun. I ended it with an arm catalepsy and arm levitation to touch his face. This was my first successful experience using this and it was so natural and simple. I used the levitation to remind him of all the positive resources we discussed and suggested that he lower his arm only as quickly as he could fully integrate all the positive ideas that came up in our session. Thank you.
wow
I have had many experiences where I began to sort of become ineffective if I felt a client was not entering trance. So this made me think of two things. One is that trance can happen anytime, it may not be just after you feel you have done what was needed for client to enter trance. Now I feel more confident and comfortable with client behavior that does not ratify trance within a certain amount of time.
The journey is always fascinating the technique both challenging, while being easy and intriguing and considering 80% of patients can use their own resources to solve their own problems, although this number is filtered somewhat by the time they get to hospital with a combination of 30% over diagnosis I am sure this journey can help.
