This introduction will include core concepts, differing views of hypnosis, differing applications, core elements of hypnotic processes, and address some of the research and directions the field is moving in. The presenter will also do group hypnosis, and exercises in getting used to hypnotic language and facilitating hypnotic phenomena.
Deconstructing trance into phenomenological components allows the hypnotherapist to target intensions strategically. Hypnosis will be divided into social, psychological, and interpersonal elements. Lecture, demonstration, and small group practice.

Revolutionary research in neuroscience documents how experiences of (1) Novelty, (2) Environment Enrichment, and (3) Mental & Physical Exercise can optimize gene expression, brain plasticity (brain growth), and mind-body healing. We will learn how to use our highest and most inspired states of consciousness to facilitate optimal gene expression and brain plasticity while healing stress and trauma.
