"Blake,
another possibility...that would be good to explore... in a pinch (if you don't find any Indian hypnotherapists).
If he has a trusted friend who speaks English and can translate. They both come to the appointment... and you conduct the…"

I have a friend that needs some help. He's Indian, and does not understand enough English to really make me effective. It also plays into my own ability to not speak his language and help him - so…Continue

I have been wondering about this for a few months now. Looking through the options available, and listening to several tracks from each supplier, it appears that everyone's take on hypnosis audio is…Continue

I have a friend that needs some help. He's Indian, and does not understand enough English to really make me effective. It also plays into my own ability to not speak his language and help him - so I'm referring out!I'm not sure exactly what dialect he's speaking, but I know he really wants to quit smoking and needs the help.Please contact me, or copy & paste this message into your emails and send them out to your network.

Blake Alexander Hammerton replied to Marc Carlin's discussion What do you think of clients following your hand movements?"I agree. You've got someone there that is so focused on following your movements, tracking your speech, and wondering (almost anxious) to find out what happens next. I'll bet if you played into it, moving into an arm drop, the…"
Blake Alexander Hammerton replied to Alfredo Velasquez CHt.'s discussion ARGUMENT WITH A PSYCHOLOGIST!"Wow, Richard! Thanks for posting this.
Most of the people I run into don't ever argue with me about hypnosis and hypnotherapy, but should they ever decide to, I'll have these resources to present! Well…"
"While the confusion technique is GREAT for analytical clients, it can really be annoying to someone with a short attention span. (I learned this from experience.)
Most hypnosis CD's use progressive relaxation because a higher percentage of…"
Kathy Moore replied to Blake Alexander Hammerton's discussion Do All Self-Hypnosis CDs use Progressive Relaxation?"Being a "wordsmith," I use a variety of inductions on my cds. In session, I like progressive relaxation for clients who really need to unwind. But I don't speak slowly. It's more the sound of my voice that relaxes…"

Blake Alexander Hammerton replied to Jenny Lynn's discussion Criticism of Psychotherapy"Oh perfect question for a good discussion!
I have a bachelors in Psychology, which basically means nothing at all. I do, however, have coaching credentials from Center for Right Relationship in Organization and Relationship Systems Coaching…"
Blake Alexander Hammerton replied to Blake Alexander Hammerton's discussion Do All Self-Hypnosis CDs use Progressive Relaxation?"Excellent everyone!
@Mike, I actually do make my own audio tracks from time to time. But that's because I already have so many PSH's in my subconscious, my inductions on myself only take 30 seconds. I think it's…"
"I don't use PMR in my CDs, though I do use relaxation. My inductions take approximately 5 minutes.
You could certainly try a rapid or instant induction, though I suspect it'd be difficult; most, if not all, of those rely on…"
John Cleesattel replied to Blake Alexander Hammerton's discussion Do All Self-Hypnosis CDs use Progressive Relaxation?"Mine don't. I use relaxation for sure, but that is the purpose of the recording...total relaxation. The entire recording is just over 7 minutes long.

Richard Nongard - NLPBoard.com replied to Blake Alexander Hammerton's discussion Do All Self-Hypnosis CDs use Progressive Relaxation?"Almost all my 2009 and before CD's use PMR or a variation of it for the same readon the other Richard stated.
And for all the "it doesn't take 20 minutes to go into trance" talk, there is VALUE in learning and practicing PMR,…"
Mike Bowers replied to Blake Alexander Hammerton's discussion Do All Self-Hypnosis CDs use Progressive Relaxation?"Blake,
Why not make your own relaxation CD using another induction. I used a variation of Gerald Kein's group induction to create a relaxation CD that can serve as an induction into hypnosis. I've found that it works…"
Richard Mangelsdorf replied to Blake Alexander Hammerton's discussion Do All Self-Hypnosis CDs use Progressive Relaxation?"As one of these Hypnotherapists that uses PR for their CDs I thought I'd throw in my reasoning for doing it. The main reason is if a customer bought a CD, they are most likely not familiar and comfortable with going in and out of hypnosis, and…"
Bridget McKenna replied to Blake Alexander Hammerton's discussion Do All Self-Hypnosis CDs use Progressive Relaxation?"I'm guessing there are a number of them, but what springs to mind is Paul McKenna's CDs. There's mention of relaxation, but not a typical feet-up or head-down progression. Very Ericksonian."
Blake Alexander Hammerton replied to Blake Alexander Hammerton's discussion Do All Self-Hypnosis CDs use Progressive Relaxation?"Excellent! Thank you Jess.
I'm going to take a look at some Dan Jones stuff right now. That was my biggest gripe - "there's no reason why going into trance has to take 20 minutes." Thank you for the quick…"
