I am attempting to document the hypnosis schools which have used the Dave Elman methods over the past 45 or so years and up to the present time. I posted a thread concerning this on the Dave Elman…Continue

I am attempting to document the hypnosis schools which have used the Dave Elman methods over the past 45 or so years and up to the present time.

Alzheimers

Posted on April 25, 2011 at 7:52pm 9 Comments

My mother-in-law died of Alzheimers about 6 years ago.  My wife and I were the "back-up" care-givers,  while my sister-in-law went through hell and earned a place among the angels.



On facebook tonight,  a fellow hypnotherapist asked if hypnosis can assist in cases of this disease.  (He is the primary care-giver.)  All I could think of was to send sympathy and to ask if he had joined Hypnothoughts.   My wife suggested that the person needing hypnosis was him -- to help his endurance and… Continue

Thanks for the invitation.  I met you at the 2009 NGH Convention (along with many others who heard you speak).  Enjoyed your talk about your father. I'm the Southern Az. NGH Chapter President this year.  Last weekend, Ed Bebee and I drove out together to Anaheim for the NGH Solid Gold Weekend.  Ed was talking on the drive out about a lunch he had with you at the NGH convention.  Solid Gold was very good this year - 12 good speakers in two days (Don Mottin, Ron Eslinger, Edith Fiore, Richard Harte, among others). We were there with Stage Hypnotist Mike DeSchalit (also from Tucson) and my brother Mike Harrod, a hypnotist from Riverside CA.
