Thanks so much. Brilliant! Hugely informative.J. WILLIAMS
If you are serious about learning how to hypnotise people, or having hypnotherapy yourself, you should not miss this powerful talk.
After a lifetime of studying hypnosis and trance states Ivan Tyrrell, co-developer of the human givens approach to psychotherapy, shares his valuable clear thinking on the topic.
The difference between hypnosis and trance
The underlying reason why so many different inductions induce trance states
The deepest trance state of all. Nature’s solution to a major problem of the mammalian kingdom
What is beneficial and useful about trancework, such as speeding up treatment for depression, anxiety disorders, addiction, PTSD, pain control, boosting confidence and aiding in the healing physiological damage to the body
The many half-truths put forward by hypnotherapy schools and why great care and integrity are needed to practice because using hypnosis can also abuse and permanently damage people
The harm hypnosis can easily do. The dangers are real for the hypnotist and the hypnotised
Conditioning, cults and manipulation of large groups for dark purposes – all done using hypnosis
‘The Observing Self’ – the complementary principle to focused trance states
The factors that determine whether using hypnosis will do harm or not.
Ivan Tyrrell worked for many years as a psychotherapist and now spends most of his time lecturing and writing.
This webinar gives you important information – it explains the positive uses of hypnosis, and what it is, but also informs you about how unscrupulous people can abuse it and how others, often unwittingly, can do harm through a lack of understanding.
The College does not provide therapy for anyone abused by hypnotherapists or hypnotists. We provide training for therapists and other health and welfare professionals, and information for the general public.
For those interested there is more information on hypnosis in the book, The Brain’s Big Bang – The Explosive Origin of Creativity, Mysticism and Mental Illness, written by the founders of the Human Givens Approach to mental health and wellbeing.
