Adventures in NLP [with a dash of EFT and Hypnosis]

This week, we will be rejoined by EFT Trainer Michelle Hardwick.

Michelle has a beautiful presence as a speaker and has shared with many of us from her heart some of her remarkable experiences. We love having her in Shanghai, and I’m pleased to let you know that as her public session is fully booked, she will be leading a session specifically for China NLP.

Michelle Hardwick – Friday 30 October – 6:30-8pm @ Frank ‘n’ Sense

The venue has a limited size, so please let us know you’re coming.

For the session, bring along a wish or an intention about something you would like to clear or release… something that you will be willing to share with and work on in the group.

And thanks again for Gabor Nagy and Chris Malone for their sessions in the past few weeks!

Coming up in the next few weeks are likely to be sessions with Marga and Marc, followup sessions with both Gabor and Chris, and I’ll probably look to do one more session before I head off, probably next Monday or Tuesday night…

Have a great week – and get along for Michelle’s session this Friday night!

Christopher Malone: Stage Hypnosis

Chris Malone will be leading another session exploring stage hypnosis. This will be an experiential workshop with more demonstrations than explanations.

We are after just a small group of people who are interested in exploring and experiencing hypnosis. This will not be about ’self hypnosis’, ‘conversational hypnosis’, sleight of mouth, or building your ability to influence others. There will be no timeline or futurepacing: instead, we will be specifically focused on inducing states of trance as might be done in a stage hypnosis performance.

Shanghai – 14 October – from 7pm

We’re fully booked for this session – thanks!

Next session: 20 October with Gabor Nagy on the Metaprograms of FiTIn.

Christopher is a published novelist, is on the verge of publishing a collection of short stories, and loves cooking and cross-country skiing.

Conversational Hypnosis with Dan Smith, Saturday 1 August

Next Saturday afternoon, we’re going to be having a session on Conversational Hypnosis.

Conversational Hypnosis – Shanghai

Saturday 1 August from 2pm – RSVP essential – 100RMB

Dan Smith

Dan Smith

Hypnosis has been part of NLP since it began with the modelling of Milton Erickson… The man credited with bringing hypnosis out of the dark ages (of stage mesmerism) did much of his work within the context of an ordinary conversation.

Just the other night, I was playing pool with my brother. And he’s very good! One of the things that I noticed was that when I was in ‘the zone’, things flowed and I would beat him without really trying. But when I was out of ‘the zone’, I couldn’t do anything right. And noticing this reminded me how important it is to be in the appropriate state for what you are doing – having good technique is important, but you gotta be in the right state for the context!

(That’s an example how you can use a metaphor from ‘normal’ life to communicate a message – just one part of Conversational Hypnosis…)

I have been exploring Conversational Hypnosis for years in a variety of contexts (in coaching, in negotiations, in marketing and especially in intimate relationships!) in Personal Transformation events that I’ve been delivering, so I figured it would be a great chance to share this with our friends in China NLP.

The venue will be somewhere central; I’ll let you know if you’re coming.

Thanks Elsie for our session on Hypnosis

Elsie Tsui leads a session introducing hypnosisElsie Tsui shared some of her great insights into hypnosis in our session yesterday afternoon. In a freeflowing and experiential session, we discussed concepts of and experiences with our unconscious mind, and enjoyed a short practical induction for the group.

Hypnosis is a different experience for everybody, and we greatly appreciated the 25 or so of you who contributed your thoughts and insights.

Coming up: Emmanuel Mercado on Suggestion and something special from John Lee, both after the National Holiday.

We know of a few trainings coming up towards the end of the year – Jeff Tan’s looking to run another NLP Practitioner and possibly a Master Practitioner, Robert Dilts is coming to China for six-days with a training on Genius, and a few other things are on. If you have something special coming up, do let us know.

Elsie Tsui on Hypnosis

Join us this Saturday afternoon as Coach, hypnotist and NLP Master Practitioner Elsie Tsui shares with us her insights into the world of hypnosis.

Hypnosis and hypnotic language patterns have been a part of NLP’s core since Bandler and Grinder modeled Milton Erickson, most obviously yielding the well-known Milton Model (and its antidote, the Meta Model) but having a far more pervasive impact than this might even imply.

Elsie will share her insights and experiences with a select group, covering topics including:

  • What is hypnosis
  • What is the “unconscious mind”
  • Some application of hypnosis
  • The process of hypnosis
  • A group hypnosis experience where audience members may choose to experience deep trance and wonderful relaxation
  • Some basics of self hypnosis

We are capping attendance numbers to ensure that this session remains intimate, so please register your place early.

Looking forward to seeing you there!
