Effective Self Hypnosis Pathways to the Unconscious

A complete course in the theory and practice of self hypnosis! Beginning with a history of the phenomenon, Part One gives a firm foundation for understanding. Part Two includes the building blocks to develop concepts of hypnosis: the unconscious, mind/body, and suggestion with exercises for understanding and easy accessibility. Part Three gives step-by-step instructions for a gradual personal experience to practice self-suggestion and trance phenomena. The skills can be used successfully to help in many areas. Part Four shows how to apply this method to enhance learning, sports, and self control, to overcome pain and fear, quit bad habits, and lessen stress. Creative individualizing of the method is encouraged. The companion tape supplements the book. The authors confidently and reassuringly lead the listener into producing and working with self hypnosis. They answer frequently asked questions with experiential exercises on Side One and induce self hypnosis for relaxation and stress reduction on Side Two. "I believe my late husband, Milton H.
