Grand Rounds Again.........
I did another in-service at a psych hospital today. That's one last week and one this week. I'm having such a blast with them I wish I could do one every day. The hospital today also got a drug rep to buy lunch! This week, Eli Lilly fed everyone. The woman from Lilly was pushing Cymbalta for chronic pain. I showed them how to do the same thing without drugs that could mask symptoms. And the detail lady was sitting right there with her mouth open most of the time. Again, I laughed all the way home!!!!!!!!!
There were 5 docs in the room and they all were blown away. Every demo subject, except the first one, was great. The first one was an aide who was a little on the slow side. She was pretty poor but I covered it. Then, the other 3 were awesome. I had recorded my pre-talk about hypnosis and how it works on CD's. Every single person in the room filed past to get a CD. No lie, one of the docs asked me afterwards why didn't all hospitals have hypnotherapists on staff?
I'm laughing even as I sit writing this. You've got to do this. It is such a rush. When I started this I was bored with hypnosis. Not any more. I've found the magic again.

Comment by Dr Sobhag Shah on August 1, 2008 at 12:44pm - Two things: Eli Lilly rep is unlikely to invite you again! Where will she sell her drugs if you take away her business? And the other is that there are lots of medical doctors who cannot believe in magic of hypnosis and NLP. Evidence-based therapies count for everything. I have been trained both in medicine and complementary therapies, but haven't made it big in therapy work, yet.

That is very cool Melissa. Obviously you are attracting people who are receptive to you.
Keep up the great work. The ones who do believe and receive benefits are all that matters.

that's really amazing that they were so receptive to what you said. I love that a pharm rep paid for it!
I'd love to get your input on my recent forum post about training, as you clearly have a lot of interaction with the medical community.
Keep up the great work,
