I am so glad I asked, Leshem.

I personally get so caught up in counseling/hypnotherapy theory that I completely forget about the work of great leaders like Ormond McGill. Thanks!

Have a great day!

Hi Jackie,

That is a classy looking book. I never thought about carrying it around before. I bet it does generate a lot of interest.

You're a genius!

Dave Elman's Hypnotherapy! Just carrying it around incites interest. Simple to follow and get outstanding results.

Thank you so much Ayelet.

I really like the idea about using Salad Cards, those will help greatly.

Wishing you a wonderful day,

Sheilah

Hi all,

I recommend:
1. Therapeutic Metaphors: Helping Others Through the Looking Glass (by David Gordon)
2. Salad Cards (they are flash cards that can help you learn hypnotic language patterns).

Thank you Gail,

It does seem like it would be a highly comprehensive book to recommend to people learning hypnosis. I'll add it to the list.

May your day be great!

For an alternative point of view of hypnosis that I think has some merit, go to James Tripp's website http://www.hypnosiswithouttrance.com/ and sign up for the free eBook explaining hypnosis without trance.

Hello Sheila,

One of my favorites is http://www.amazon.com/Through-Open-Door-Secrets-Self-Hypnosis/dp/15... by Kevin Hogan and Mary Lee LeBay. It has valuable information for both the hypnotically untrained and the more experienced reader.

Regards,

Kelley

Hi Sheilah,

I'd have to agree with Michael about "A CRITICAL History of Hypnotism: the UNauthorized story", but seeing
as how I'm the author I'll understand if you take my remark with the proverbial grain of salt...; - )
However, if you read the preface and those 7 free chapters on my website (best read in PDF format), and
then check out some of those the stellar reviews and testimonials, you might well become interested in reading
the rest of it...
Cheers,

Saul

Hi Sheilah,
I am currently studying at D.S.H. I would love to be involved with your practice group.(I also live in Denver.) My favorite book is Sidney Rosen's My Voice Will Go With You: The Teaching Tales of Milton H.Erickson. I'm reading it for the second time now. Erickson understood the fundamentals of patterns and how we live them out. A true inspiration.
Bob
