Certification Courses from Dave Elman -- Both Weekend Style and Straight Through

A problem with Certification Courses is that locals who work prefer -- NEED -- a format of several weekends.  Persons coming from far away require a single continuous course for reason of transportation and lodging.  THE DAVE ELMAN HYPNOSIS INSTITUTE is solving this problem by running two Certification Courses in BOTH formats,  giving the student what is really four choices.  The Basic Course will run as both a 9-Day version and a 5-Weekend version.  The Advanced Course will be in both a 13-Day…See More

Complaint -- new format a real pain

Posted on July 16, 2012 at 6:16pm 3 Comments

I'll be brief.  Under the format used until recently,  it was a "one shot deal" to find out if there was activity on a blog you were following.  Now you need to find the blog,  go to it,  then find which end is the latest,  and then read carefully to find out where you had left off.   At one time the blogs were consistent in which chronological direction things were stored -- currently you often can't tell which is the start and which is the latest,  so I have to go to both.  Come on guys --…

Alzheimers

Posted on April 25, 2011 at 7:52pm 10 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.
