Hi Barry, I have thought long and hard about this before answering and can't find a way to say what I'm thinking other than this, and with a sincere wish not...
I personally believe that the spoken suggestions in the consulting room are only a VERY SMALL PART of the post-hypnotic suggestion and belief system - there is...
Dear Jon No, not offended. But I did specify that I was only referring to the bit between the test and the eduction. In your example I'd say that's a 15 word...
Dear Richard The world is full of stuff that's meant to influence us, and much of it does. As there are both quantitative and qualitative differences between...

Dear Barry, True, I understand what you're saying. Derren Brown interestingly in his book argues the point about hypnotic effects and how many things...
Damn missed that Barry, Sorry. Well in that case my briefest is completely nothing to cure asthma. I can verify ten years clear up to losing contact and can't...
Hi Richard, Having read Mr Brown's book I was left wondering if he knows the difference between hypnosis and scuba diving. Don't get me wrong, he undoubtedly...
Hi Jon, Yes totally agree, I do view the book in the same manner, enjoyed it though! best wishes Richard ... From: JonC To: Art_of_hypnosis@yahoogroups.com ...
Dear Jon and Jem I didn't mean to suggest there was a single five letter word that could be used like some kind of magic spell. In the case history (Jon, I...
Dear Richard It's worth getting hold of a copy of the January AJCH. There's pages and pages of argument and rebuttal about whether suggestion works better in...
Hi Barry, Thanks for your thoughts which I read with interest. With regard to your last paragraph I agree, but based on my experience that it's more about...
Dear Richard It seems to be a commonly held view that 'analytical types' are difficult hypnotees, but that hasn't been my experience. Sure, some analytical...
I think the problem with all social compliance and scaling research, and indeed with all hypnosis research is that the whole focus is placed on the hypnotee. ...
p.s. If they've been referred from GP's then suggestion is still at work, regardless of whether they've seen website or not. Probably even more so than if they...
We all use suggestion all f the time. Just because it isn't deliberate hypnosis doesn't mean that it isn't suggestion or that it won't work just as well. After...
Dear Jon You're right about the lack of attention paid to whether the hypnotist is a hypnotist and I agree that also undermines pretty much the entire field of...
Hi Barry, In essence I agree with you. In my experience the biggest problem is the fear of losing control which tends to be more predominate with those...
Years ago a man came to my office, stood over me and thrust a folder full of papers at me. "What's this?" I asked. "It's research papers from a study...

Dear Richard Our patients come to us because they are out of control already. Our job is to give them back control. Best wishes barry ... which tends to be...
Hi Barry, I don't disagree, I also find a large proportion of potential clients worry about actually 'losing control in hypnosis'...based on their perceptions...

Hi Barry, It is arrogance if the only reason for not hypnotising is assumed to be that the client is at fault. As I am sure you will have come across. Smiles ...
Actually my clients aren't on the whole either patient nor out of control. Although they may be unfocused and in need of having a better drive. In fact in the...
Hi Richard, The only myth here is that clients retain control when hypnotised. I think it's also important to dispel the myths. For instance the myths I dispel...
