Ormond McGill's book is a somewhat old fashioned, almost quaint book covering the skills required to become a professional Stage Hypnotist.
The book starts with a series of hypnotic experiments to get you comfortable with the concepts, then teaches a number of hypnotic inductions, and finally moves into designing and marketing a hypnotic show. The book is called the new encyclopedia for a reason - the list of induction techniques is truly extensive.
If you would like to dabble in hypnosis, then this is a good place to begin as the exercises start out very simple and allow you to build your skills slowly.
There is no NLP here, but it is an interesting read and will add some interesting hypnotic skills to your repertoire. |
