FYI-
I am one those "crazy" people who strongly object to the medicalizing of basic behaviors in the new medical "Bible". I hope the public wakes up and realizes that this is an assault on their basic humanity If they do - Psychiatry's new Bible will be psychiatry's Waterloo.
Highly recommended reading and in my opinion you are not crazy if you weep…
Of course, I am not qualified to offer a medical or psychiatric opinion and my above opinion is NOT a…

Newly Certified Hypnos and students - The Benefits and Advantages of Going with the Flow.

The Benefits and Advantages of Going with the Flow.
The only reason I am spending time and energy on this topic is that I believe you owe it to your future clients to consider the fact that the theories and techniques we utilize are only a small part of helping clients heal or make changes. The reason I push you every, chance I get, to start practicing mindful hypnosis is because I know it is far easier to develop the habit of mindfully assisting your clients from the beginning than…

Hey there Michael!
Missed seeing you last year in Daytona. I moved to Sedona, Az. and was caught up in many new life adventures so had to miss that conference for the first time. I am signed up for next years conference. I am really looking forward to this class to support one I took with Dan Cleary in Daytona. When I saw it was you (and Scott) teaching the class I knew it was a must. Hope life has been treating you beautifully and I look forward to the next four weeks to enrich my tool box and allow me to integrate my practice out west.
