What will this course teach me?
Although it's described
as a 'foundation skills' course, this tuition programme
is actually far more comprehensive than some that
claim to be 'complete'. The following subjects, and
a whole lot more, are covered in precise detail:
 What
hypnosis
is and what it is not |
What
it can and cannot do |
| How
to hypnotise almost anybody |
Recognising
hypnosis instantly |
| Safely
releasing hypnosis |
Using
self
hypnosis effectively |
| Getting
to the 'roots' of problems |
Direct
and indirect suggestion |
| Suggestibility
testing |
The
Conscious Critical Faculty |
Course Format
Designed specifically for
distance-learning, the course is presented in a structured
and easy to assimilate format. There are seven lessons
spread over four modules, each lesson complete in
itself yet integrating seamlessly with the others
to provide a full tuition programme. One of the lessons
includes a 'hypno-wellbeing' audio cassette that will
not only give your ego a boost, but will also allow
you to hear how to deliver a hypnotic induction and
subsequent suggestion work.
The Foundation Course serves
as an excellent 'primer' that will stand you in good
stead if you later decide to study further. To this
end, you can easily upgrade to the rather more-complex
Professional Practitioners course at any time you
wish, simply by paying the difference in cost between
the two courses.
No Experience
Necessary
You need have no previous
experience of therapy of any sort to become a successful
hypnotherapist - in fact, this Foundation Course is
written with the assumption that the student may have
no more than a vague idea of what therapy actually
is and is supposed to do. And you don't have to worry
that you might need to be a 'special' sort of person
either, because successful hypnotherapists come from
such truly diverse backgrounds as: shop assistants,
company directors, lorry drivers, bank clerks, insurance
brokers, housewives, househusbands, factory workers,
car salesmen, computer programmers, ballroom dancers,
musicians, welders, electronics engineers, builders...
whatever occupation you can think of, it's almost
certain that a therapist somewhere has been it.
No
Special Gift
It's a common misconception
that only people who possess 'the gift of hypnosis'
can apply it properly. The reality is that anybody
can learn how to use it, for it is the therapy part
of the equation that takes more time to grasp - but
the Essex Institute of Clinical hypnosis courses even
make that easy! It matters not one bit whether you
are young or old, male or female, academically talented
or simply just a 'regular' sort of person, you can
learn how to use this amazing phenomenon of the psyche
to help improve the lives of your fellow beings.
What
will I be able to do?
Many people ask this question
and the best answer is probably: "More
than you could possibly imagine." Once
trained, you will have a wonderful ability to help
others achieve many of their goals and desires so
easily that they will scarcely believe it.
Treatable
Ailments
Listed below are just a
few of the problems for which you will be able to
offer effective help. The Foundation Course shows
you how to deal with these, as well as how to easily
recognise when a situation is beyond your area of
expertise.
| Smoking
Cessation |
Stress
Management |
Habits
(Nailbiting, etc.) |
| Exam
Nerves |
Confidence
Issues |
Driving
Test Nerves |
| Social
Phobias |
Goal
Achievement |
Weight
Control |
To help you still further,
as a student of the Essex Institute,
you will have free lifetime membership of the therapist's
help line (some schools charge their normal session
fee per hour or part hour for this service). This
ensures that you will never be 'out of your depth';
if there is something with which you are not truly
equipped to help, we will advise you accordingly and
also help you handle the situation professionally.
Our interest
in you doesn't stop when your lessons do!
The Certificate
of Skills
When you complete your
studies, you will have the opportunity to take a small
examination of your skills. The exam paper will be
sent to you at home - there is no need for you to
attend the College personally. This is an entirely
optional paper, for which a small examination fee
of £30.00 will be charged. It will give you
the satisfaction of knowing that you have learned
your skills thoroughly, the confidence to use them
- and, of course, a personalised certificate as evidence of your competence
