In \u003ci\u003eGenerative Trance\u003c\/i\u003e renowned trainer Stephen Gilligan shows you how to harness this relationship for a much more powerful and effective therapeutic intervention, and reveals how life can be lived as a great journey of consciousness.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Emphasizing that reality and identity are constructed by ourselves, Gilligan explains how generative trance is crucial in creating new realities and possibilities for clients. It is a view that differs markedly from the traditional hypnosis ideas of a client losing control, as well as from Ericksonian approaches that feature a benevolent hypnotist who bypasses the conscious mind to work with a client's unconscious mind. Instead, generative trance stresses a 'disciplined flow' process in which a person's conscious and unconscious minds cooperate to weave a higher consciousness capable of transformational change.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Suitable for individuals who want to live life as a creative journey, as well as for professionals working with clients in such ventures.\u003c\/p\u003ePreviously published in hardback, ISBN 9781845907815\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eGilligan, Stephen:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Stephen Gilligan PhD, has become a leading figure in Ericksonian hypnotherapy.
