RIP Trance
When I first started out as a hypnotherapist, about 15 years ago I attended a lot of courses, and was often taught (and believed) that depth of trance was a key factor at play in getting the best results for my clients.
However, for a number of reasons this just didn't ring true for me. I strongly suspected that trance wasn't as important as it was made out to be, and in fact that it might even be completely redundant.
I took a leap of faith and formulated a system that whilst still incorporating direct phenomena based hypnosis, didn't require any formal induction, hypnotic language patterns or the need to go 'deeper' into some kind of trance. In fact the client didn't even need to close their eyes.
My results didn't only remain just as good...they actually improved.
Not only that but I was enjoying my work more and my clients felt more empowered to make their own changes in the future.
More than a decade later and I now train other hypnotherapists (and those that would like to become one) in my method that I call The CONTROL System.
Over the last few years I've trained and qualified almost 150 CONTROL Practitioners throughout the world and the vast majority of them would never go back to working with a drawn out, old fashioned trance model.
At the end of this week I'll be running a FREE ONLINE 90 minute taster seminar for those that would like to understand more about how we use hypnosis without any trance and how CONTROL Practitioners get such good results.
It's all happening on Friday (11th) at 4pm UK time.
