The first section of this volume presents an historically important lecture on clinical hypnosis by the senior author wherein we witness his transition from the older authoritarian approach to hypnosis to the new permissive approaches, which he pioneered. The second and third sections of this volume focus on the phenomena of catalepsy and ideomotor signaling, two of the senior author's basic approaches to trance induction and hypnotherapy. The fourth section, dealing with the experiential learning of hypnosis, illustrates one of the senior author's favorite occupations in recent years: the training of professionals in the use of clinical hypnosis by allowing them to experience the process themselves.

Experiencing Hypnosis: Therapeutic Approaches to Altered States

Irvington Pub.

Integrating key concepts from biology, medicine, neuroscience, and psychology, Ernest Rossi has forged a revolutionary new paradigm that encompasses mind, body, and spirit. Rossi's new world view-- Psychosocial and Cultural Genomics -- has profound implications for understanding the human condition. He describes how we can all learn to facilitate our evolving consciousness with numinous experiences of Art, Beauty, Truth, and Happiness in our daily creative work of building a better brain. Rossi begins by tracing his own recent dramatic journey from stroke victim through rehabilitation to full recovery. On this journey of self-healing, where he was both passenger and guide, Rossi's full psychotherapeutic repertoire was called upon to facilitate activity-dependent gene expression and brain plasticity to optimize his recovery. As he notes in the closing sentence of this opening chapter: "This takes us quite beyond my personal story to a deepening exploration of the co-creation between consciousness and nature in human experience that is the main subject of this book." As a pioneer in clinical psychobiology, Dr. Rossi shares his latest neuroscience concepts of a unified approach to Mind-Body Medicine and the practical methods self-healing in everyday life.
