Second edition is much bigger than the first - so you may want to get that one
|
The book has a a variety of inductions, emerging scripts and scripts for dealing with assortment of situations a hypnotherapist may encounter in his practice. Most scripts contain metaphors which may work more effectively in one-on-one practice if they are adapted to the one's that may be more meaningful for the client.
Here's a sample script from this collection:
SWEET DREAMS SCRIPT
Tonight, perhaps tomorrow too,
your unconscious mind
can give you a dream,
a very special dream
that clarifies the problem
indicates the source perhaps,
but tells you quite clearly
how to solve that problem now.
And each night afterwards,
until you understand it,
until you decide to do it or not,
that dream can return to you
in one form or another.
And every day
as you go about your business,
your unconscious can find something,
some thought, perception, awareness,
a taste perhaps or a sensation,
or even a color,
that seems familiar
and reminds you of something,
reminds you fo what your unconscious mind
is trying to tell you,
until you fully understand
and use that understanding for you.
This second edition of the book is about one third bigger than the original edition. It has all the contents the first book has, plus much more.

Absolutely useful. Chocka block of really cool scripts, I wish there were more. A very good investment. Leading me further into the world of Ericksonian wonders.

An excellent book for the professional and interested novice

This is an excellent book and one that I, as a professional hypnotherapist, would recommend. The scripts are very good and cover a wide range of conditions. The written matter on the subject of hypnotherapy relating to Erickson is also interesting and informative. If anything, I would say that I wish there was another volume with even more scripts and further written on the Erickson way of delivery and therapy by these two authors.
