6. The course notes are comprehensive, and there are no accompanying CDs or mandatory reading lists.

7. I am available for teaching CPD courses on behalf of other training schools and to groups.

8. Refunds are not available for online courses. Even if the document is emailed back, deleted and the Recycle Bin emptied, it remains on the hard drive of the computer, and can be accessed at any time, by anyone.
9. Prospective students are advised that they read the CPD course summaries, and ask questions or seek clarification, and only enrol on a course when they are fully satisfied that it would be suitable for them.

10. All CPD course notes are comprehensive and self-explanatory. However, students enrolling on a CPD course have the option of an extra hour on ZOOM for an additional £20. This is not mandatory.

Conversational Hypnosis
Distance Learning
£130
Conversational hypnosis, sometimes referred to as "covert" hypnosis aims to elicit change in the subject's behaviour without the latter going through a formal trance induction. Since the communication takes place in a conversational manner, the technique, similar to indirect hypnosis, is called "conversational" hypnosis.
This technique is particularly useful for managing pain and anxiety, and is sometimes used by dentists. It can also be employed by sports coaches when working with athletes and sportsmen and women. In non-therapeutic settings, examples of conversational or covert hypnosis can be found in TV commercials and other forms of marketing.
Conversational hypnosis can also be used as a self-hypnosis technique.
Topics covered:
* Definition
* Conversational self-hypnosis
* Benefits of conversational hypnosis
* Examples from non-therapeutic settings
* The technique
