`Zeig and Munion have provided us with a lucid insight into the life and work of a 20th century giant, and it is a book full of human warmth and humour. I congratulate you who still have the adventure of exploring Milton H Erickson′s story ahead of you′ - Hypnos `This offering on Erickson does not set out to uncover new ground, but more to introduce one to Erickson (and the cases are so extraoridinary they are worth repeating anyway). It does this in a number of easy to read sections′ - New Therapist `This book is an easily accessible primer for those who are new to studying Ericksonian methods.... its depth provides the reader with the experience of learning about the man, as well as the method′ - Milton H Erickson Foundation Newsletter Milton H Erickson provides a unique insight into the life and experiences of this influential figure, and a clear account of his specific contributions to psychotherapy, both theoretical and practical. Erickson was the dominant force in legitimizing the use of clinical hypnosis. Through his research and practice, he developed a scientific understanding of hypnotic phenomena and devised many novel clinical applications. He took the view that psychotherapy should be formulated to meet the uniqueness of an individual′s strengths and needs, rather than tailoring the person to fit a particular theoretical approach. His directive and strategic interventions contributed substantially to the development of brief therapy approaches such as strategic therapy, solution-focused therapy, and the interactional approach.

Despite their clinical utility, hypnotic phenomena are vastly underutilized by therapists in their work with patients. Whether this is due to uncertainty about how to use specific techniques constructively or how to elicit particular phenomena, or anxiety about not being able to obtain a desired result, this volume will guide hypnotherapists toward higher levels of clinical expertise. By describing varied hypnotic phenomena and how they can be used as vehicles of intervention, The Phenomenon of Ericksonian Hypnosis takes the therapist beyond these fundamental applications toward a broader, more sophisticated scope of practice. This immensely readable book addresses the selection, eliciting, and therapeutic use of hypnotic phenomena that are natural outgrowths of trance. It offers step?by?step instruction on eliciting age progression, hypnotic dreaming, hypnotic deafness, anethesia, negative and positive hallucination, hypermnesia, catalepsy, and other hypnotic phenomena. The book includes specific instruction on how to use the phenomena manifested in trance to provide more effective treatment. Numerous case examples vividly illustrate intervention with anxiety disorders, trauma and abuse, dissociative disorders, depression, marital and family problems, sports and creative performance, pain, hypersensitivity to sound, psychotic symptomatology, and other conditions. The Phenomenon of Ericksonian Hypnosis will be used by therapists as a valuable clinical tool to expand their conceptualizations of hypnosis, and thus enable them to offer a wider repertoire of skills with which they can confidently treat clients.

This book is a simple introduction to hypnotic phenomena. Knowing why, when and how to practise hypnosis may help readers to improve their health, creativity and performance, and above all to find who they really are. This book is specially written for those who for whatever the reason just lost their track in life. This step by step guide will help them to find the light house and the right course again. For easy understanding, I use the metaphor of sailing on stormy seas, to express common life challenges and how to deal with them in a more effective way. We can’t change the weather and life events, but we can learn new skills to stay on course and make confident decisions to find a safe place to wait out the storm. Only this way we can enjoy sailing to the ports of our choice. Self-hypnosis will speed up the process of learning new skills and achieving goals. A few minutes of self-hypnosis a day will help to find out who you are, assess your present position, and determine what need to be changed for you to make confident decisions in a calm way. Just by visualizing what you want will help to bring your dream to reality. As Aladdin said “Your wish is my command.” Now, thanks to many clinicians throughout centuries who believed that our unconscious has the ability to release the resources to be in better control of life events, everyone can learn and benefit from it. In twenty century scientists around the globe just proved to be true.
