**The Science of Self-Hypnosis:
*The Evidence Based Way To Hypnotise Yourself** *
is a book written for anyone wanting to learn about self-hypnosis and how to use it. This book is ideal for anyone; ranging from beginners who are new to the field of self-hypnosis, to experienced clinicians hoping to teach patients how to use self-hypnosis for therapeutic gain.
Contained within this book are a range of methods for anyone to apply:
to achieve a hypnotic mindset, develop hypnotic skills, induce self-hypnosis, deepen the experience of hypnosis, apply a range of evidence-based techniques and strategies for self-improvement and then exit hypnosis.
The book offers a modern historical explanation of the development of this fascinating field as well as serving as a guidebook for practical application.
All of this is done by dispensing with notions of an *'unconscious mind'* or a *'special trance state'* , instead showing hypnosis to be an **ordinary skill that anyone can learn,** to be good at and derive benefit from.
As the book title suggests, it adheres to research findings and the evidence-base available as much as possible while offering up a substantial literature review of this topic.
The second half of the book looks specifically at applying self-hypnosis for
stress management, anxiety reduction, depression, pain control and sleep enhancement; all showcasing techniques which can be applied to a range of other issues too. This is a comprehensive volume that aims to result in it's readers becoming proficient self-hypnotists.
Adam ends his book with these words:
In my opinion, there are not enough people in the world who have these skills. Self-hypnotists have the opportunity to make real beneficial changes that make each day an exciting prospect; the self-hypnosis adventure and exploration starts here.
That indeed is an exciting prospect!
