Welcome to Hypnosis 101, general talk about Hypnosis to give people time to arrive. Goals of this workshop. Make it clear this is about getting someone into hypnosis, all other avenues such as stage or therapy are not of any interest here - it is all one of the same thing as far as I'm concerned right now, The goal is to achieve entry into hypnosis with any means we have at hand. We also need to realise that Hypnosis can be anything at all, while it's probably reasonable to suggest that we all fall back onto the earlier stuff we learned, it's in our best interests to explore further and see what else we can achieve. Let's make up some inductions, make mistakes, re-invent the wheel at times.. Let's find out where this can take us. | Welcome to Hypnosis 101, general talk about Hypnosis to give people time to arrive. Goals of this workshop.
