#31 Hypnosis: How Can it Help Me? | Dr Jeffrey Zeig

When you hear the word “hypnosis,” what do you imagine? Perhaps you imagine a well-dressed doctor with a heavy Viennese accent with a pocket watch swinging back and forth. Perhaps you imagine a person on stage entertaining an audience. But what really is hypnosis? And how can it help us lead healthier and more fulfilling lives? These questions and more will be answered by my guest, Dr. Jeffrey Zeig (www.jeffreyzeig.com), who is one of the world’s top authorities on hypnosis. Jeff has trained people in clinical hypnosis in over 40 countries, he has practiced hypnosis for thousands of hours over the past 40 years, and he has authored multiple books on the topic.  In addition, Jeff was the direct protege of Dr. Milton Erickson who, in my estimation, was the most important person in the advancement of hypnosis. Jeff is the founder and Director of the Milton Erickson Foundation, as well as the architect of one of the most well-attended international conferences of psychotherapy called The Evolution of Psychotherapy, and he works as a psychologist in Phoenix, Arizona. We will address questions like: what can hypnosis do for me? Who should I see if I want to receive hypnotherapy? And what criteria are important in selecting a professional? It is my pleasure to bring Jeff to you as we have a lively and user-friendly conversation about hypnosis. Book Link: https://amzn.to/3JbWPl4 This is an affiliate link.
