How shall we study the applications of human Mind Power with the perspectives of HYP300? 

A request of prior students about whether to use a broad brush of topics with shallow depth, or a narrower focus on a smaller range of topics with greater depth yielded the request for a broad shallow exploration of applications for hypnosis and hypnotherapy. 

This four (4) day series of hypnotherapy is an experiential process of Human Development intending to:

continue developing your skills in formulating effective suggestions,

further enhancing your awareness of your innate resources, 

cultivate deeper rapport through developing greater familiarity and fluency with communication strategies,

elicit health promoting collaboration with the body / mind connection, 

arouse multi-cultural awareness of mind power and body / mind growth and development. 

Demonstrate the skills you have developed by bringing in demo subjects and showing us what you have learned.

Optional: IMDHA Certification Exam after you have completed a minimum of 150 hours of live education, included in a minimum of 220 hours of study for certification eligibility.  

Plan to be done no later than 7:30 p.m. each day. 

This is an interactive, psychoeducational Zoom program requesting the involvement of all participants. An informed consent and a model’s release is included in the syllabus, your signature on the informed consent is required for participation, if you want to record your sessions, a signed model’s release is required as well. If you have already signed these documents for previous hypnosis and hypnotherapy learning experiences, Welcome Back Dahlings! Thank You for gifting us again with your time during these shared learning opportunities. You are remarkable, and bring something unique and powerful with you.THANK YOU!

The first part of each day will include a voluntary summary from each participant about what is she/he is hoping to achieve, feedback about changes since starting with this practice of hypnosis and hypnotherapy, if the initial goal has been achieved, if the goals have changed, and any surprises or unintended consequences have you encountered. 

This material is best learned by practicing. Each day please practice being a hypnotist and a subject. Please be prepared to demonstrate with at least one volunteer or to practice with at least one other student, to demonstrate your growing skills as a hypnotherapist during. After exercises and practice, we ideally collaborate in round robin to share our experiences, questions, and insights.  

As you cultivate your growing skills as a hypnotherapist, practice with as many different people as you can find willing to engage in this natural psychoeducational process of learning, growth, and development. Practice gives opportunities to experience and observe different responses to hypnosis. Reporting back to the group what you are experiencing and observing helps us all grow. 

“Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much.” - Hellen Keller

REMIND YOURSELF AND YOUR CLIENTS

Encourage your clients to own their resources of self healing. The gift of healing is an indwelling process of creative intelligence. As a hypnotherapist, you are like a jumper cable reconnecting another person with his or her own inner wisdom. The innate gifts of the Creative Intelligence are available to all who seek within. Your hypnosis participants will teach you amazing things about the wondrous human capacities for growth and development.
