George Gafner's Handbook of Hypnotic Inductions provided clinicians with inductions ready-made for practice. Here, in response to the overwhelming success of that book, he provides more brand-new inductions for the beginning and advanced hypnotherapist. After briefly summarizing the theoretical foundations of hypnosis, Gafner presents the inductions in five main categories: story inductions, inductions for sleep, inductions for children, directive inductions, and confusional inductions. Detailed scripts for inducing the hypnotic state are presented, as well as strategies for deepening, re-alerting, and debriefing-all followed by insightful clinical comments, making this book a comprehensive and invaluable hypnosis resource for clinicians.

In these essays Dr. Rossi analyzes Dr. Erickson's approach in order to uncover some of the basic variables that can be isolated and tested by future experimental work...A number of graduated exercises are offered as a guide to aid hypnotherapists to develop their own skills in the clinical arts of observation, hypnotic induction, and the formulation of indirect suggestion..."--inside flap.
The age-old notion of ‘hypnotic induction’ receives a fresh look from notable scholars from Canada, England, Sweden, and the USA in this book. These scholars represent a breadth of theoretical perspectives: cognitive-behavioral, Ericksonian, psychoanalytic, and trance-state. It is well known that a wide range of hypnotic induction protocols is used to prepare individuals to enhance their receptivity to test or clinical suggestions. However, despite its popularity of use, it appears that little is known about its relevancy and boundary conditions either for testing for hypnotisability or for enhancing clinical efficacy. In this volume, the authors reflect on issues surrounding its definitions, relevancy, possible components, and approaches; they also suggest considerations and strategies for optimizing inductions. This book will be of benefit to both newcomers to the field and seasoned researchers and clinicians alike – it can stimulate new thinking and research about this important, but often taken for granted, notion of hypnotic induction. This book was originally published as a special issue of the American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis.
Barboza’s Book of Hypnotic Inductions is filled with creative inductions easy enough for a novice hypnotist to master and clever enough for seasoned hypnotists to ponder at. The inductions presented within the pages are understandable and translatable enough to easily put into action. John thought that the style of the vintage book cover illustration taken directly from the classic comic book ads from the 50’s to the 80’s would be fitting enough to complement the imaginative instant and rapid inductions he has assembled. The inductions vary enough so that some can be used in the office setting and others during presentations, street and stage performances and demonstrations. This book is for anyone who is interested in learning about hypnosis and others who have a basic grasp of the concept of hypnotic inductions. It is for the hypnotist who has an interest in learning new induction techniques and it’s for the seasoned hypnotists who aren’t comfortable doing instant and rapid inductions but would like to become more proficient in using them.
In this edited volume, 11 master clinicians with over 350 years' combined clinical experience discuss the key factors necessary for effective hypnotic inductions and provide specific examples of the inductions they found most effective. A clinical reference book for psychotherapists with all levels of experience who use hypnotic techniques.
