Re: A Wildcard definit

SO, when attempting to conclude hypnosis, why would you work to produce a state that exists and functions constantly? It makes no sense to me, but apparently it does to you so I am ready to learn something new. Please elucidate, and perhaps I can save some time in therapy! Wait... You are ready to ...

What is "evidence" according to you? A paper accepted by a reputable peer-reviewed journal that has been repeated and stood up to competing scrutiny would be a reasonable definition. I'm looking for something objective and as far as I know no such evidence exists, although I would be very...

The Trust factor...

And of course we cannot forget "The Trust Factor"? The person who is hypnotized has placed trust in the practitioner, and if that trust is broken, by "messing with them", then the hypnotic contact is also broken, and as everyone knows, the subject, client, whatever can revert bac...

A Wildcard definit

Sorry mentalist...forgot to give you my opinion what trance is. I see the trance state as a learning state that is present at all times and in every emotion. Sort of like the colors of the rainbow and the color white. The emotions focus our attention and dictate what we learn about. The trance stat...

Trance

You are entranced any time you are concentrating in a very narrow area, ie as being absorbed in a book or TV show etc and oblivious to what is taking place around you. You have the Flu when you have the chills, fever, aches and pains throughout the body, headaches, fatigue etc... Does that answer t...

Finger movements

There is no better or best way. and relaxation is not a requirement for trance, it is just the most common method used by Western practitioners, and therefore the automatic finger movement seems to be the better choice, and indeed may well be depending on what the client expects from hypnosis, some ...

Just in that single posting?

I thought most of his posts sounded arrogant, rude and condescending. Then I concluded that I was obviously just not as wonderful at hypnosis as him.



And you concluded correctly I imagine.

If the client Hasn't been concentrating during a certain suggestion, like for example they've wandered off and weren't listening, or i talked too fast, as long as they heard it, just didn't listen to it...would it still take effect? Your question gives me cause to ask, " what training have you...

A Psycologist is not a Hypnotist, nor is a doctor

members of "The Hypnosis Society of Alberta" who are also PhD's take separate training to practice hypnosis, and just like doctors who do the same, not all prove capable of being effective. Seems like in your case, she is playing Psychologist when you are paying for a hypnotist. Go find a ...

AMA quote.

The AMA who are not experts on the mind, have intentionally or through ignorance put up a straw man and all posters seem to have fallen into the trap. They fail to treat language with respect.....
