Im currently learning how to hypnotise people from the comfort of my armchair. That is, Im not enrolled on any course, Im picking up information from books and the Internet. Its hard because you dont have anyone to ask when important questions crop up. I dont want to become professional, I just believe its a hugely useful tool for life.
When I first became interested in hypnosis, (before the Internet) it was very difficult to find any useful books on the subject. I began to think that the skills of how to unconsciously influence people were a closely guarded secret kept by some ancient conspiracy. Somewhere between the Illuminati and the Magic Circle.
Now I know the truth to be quite the opposite. Given the latest ideas from the mind sciences, I believe we may be witnessing the emergence of a new understanding of how the mind works, especially in relation to the body and mental health issues. So if you have any training in this area and wish to offer me any little nuggets of advice, or pearls of wisdom, Id be very grateful and promise to use any information only for the great good and use of future mankind.
