What you'll be training in.
For a deeper introduction to Hypnosis as a practice tradition, see the full program page.
Hypnosis is a focused, relaxed, attentive state in which the conscious critical faculty becomes quiet and the deeper, more associative parts of the mind become more accessible to suggestion. It is not sleep, it is not loss of control, and it is not a trick — it is a particular configuration of attention that humans have been entering and using deliberately for thousands of years.
A modern hypnosis session typically follows a clear arc. The practitioner builds rapport, agrees on a focused goal, and uses an induction (progressive relaxation, fixation on a point, conversational misdirection, or rapid induction depending on the client) to guide the client into a comfortable hypnotic state. Once there, the practitioner offers carefully designed suggestions oriented to the client's stated goal, then guides the client back to ordinary waking awareness. A first session is typically 90 to 120 minutes; follow-ups are 60 to 75 minutes.
