Coaching - Training - Consultancy

What really shapes our emotions, behaviours and responses — and how much of it happens outside our conscious awareness?

This fascinating introductory CPD workshop is designed for counsellors, psychotherapists and other professionals who want to explore intriguing aspects of the mind and discover how ideas from hypnosis could broaden their understanding and even enrich their existing practice.

Throughout the day, we’ll explore the subconscious mind, hypnosis and the fascinating ideas surrounding them, from the earliest uses of hypnosis through to contemporary perspectives. You’ll be introduced to thought-provoking concepts that may offer new ways of understanding clients, increase flexibility in your therapeutic approach, and inspire you to think differently about the relationship between mind, emotions and behaviour.
 

During the workshop, we’ll look at:
•    The fascinating relationship between the conscious and subconscious mind
•    What hypnosis actually is — and the different ways it has been understood over time
•    The history and development of hypnosis, from its earliest applications to modern approaches
•    Some of the controversies surrounding hypnosis, including the intriguing question of whether hypnosis is even a distinct state at all!
•    Practical hypnotic techniques and how they work
•    Opportunities to experience and practise hypnotic techniques for yourself
•    The principles and techniques of self-hypnosis, and its use for practical self-help and personal development

​

This is a highly practical and interactive workshop. Rather than simply talking about hypnosis, you’ll have the opportunity to see techniques demonstrated and experience them for yourself. There’s nothing scary or worrying about taking part. Participation is encouraged because it’s one of the best ways to get the most from the day, but no exercise is compulsory. If there is anything you would rather not participate in, you are always free to opt out.
