John Overdurf - Coaching Trances Conversational Hypnosis 8 D

The structure of conversational hypnosis. This comprehensive video program documents an 8 day Hypnosis training recorded live in Portland, Oregon. It is a must have if you want top-notch video training in hypnotherapy. If you liked the book, Training Trances, this is as close as you can get to a video version of the book, just updated.

This was an extraordinary training because we had an extremely varied audience- from folks new to hypnosis to experienced trainers. This meant I had to teach on many levels simultaneously to address the diverse needs of the students. The good news is this presented me with many more situations where I had to rely on the power of the hypnotic processes I was teaching and applying them directly to teaching itself, which is also unique from a content standpoint. Provocative and spontaneous, with lots of twists and turns, you’ll enjoy all of the multi-level communication.

While the training covers the classic Ericksonian Hypnosis material, I wanted to expand the work beyond the Training Trances Era and integrate the coaching model that I’ve been using more recently.

Here’s a sampling of some of the content and processes covered:
Review of basic Ericksonian skills required to do more sophisticated, advanced techniques
Classic Ericksonian Induction Structures:
Revivification
Pacing current experience
Conscious-unconscious dissociation
What to do after you’ve induced trance

How to easily elicit traditional hypnotic phenomena, such as:
Catalepsy
Analgesia/anesthesia
Amnesia
Deep trance identification
How to use Erickson’s basic protocol for posthypnotic suggestions
How to conversationally elicit present states and outcome states to create unconscious change
The Hypnotic Interview: A template for effective Hypnotherapy
