Trusted teacher: They still exist: people who believe that hypnosis is not real, or that it is a paranormal activity. However, decades ago it was scientifically proven that hypnosis not only exists, but is also very effective in achieving all kinds of different goals. Thanks to the hypnosis course, you too can learn what exactly this fascinating state entails. This way you can not only learn to act, but also get a taste of our courses in debate and presentation techniques (our TV course), communication, singing, improvisation, physical acting, lie detection, hypnosis, directing, or writing! Of course, it remains true: the more you follow one particular course, the faster you progress. You can take both live and online lessons. 'Enlightenment is always preceded by confusion.' Milton H. Erickson What is hypnosis? To understand hypnosis, think of sunlight; that is diffuse and falls somewhat everywhere. However, if you bundle light through a number of crystals, you turn it into a laser beam. Hypnosis does the same with your attention. It is usually focused on several things at the same time. This way you not only see what is directly in front of you, but you also notice things to the left and right, in your peripheral vision. However, when you focus yourself and focus your attention on one point, you can achieve a hypnotic state. Our brains In the past, people who talked about hypnosis mainly talked about the two brain hemispheres. The left hemisphere controls the right part of the body (except the ears), the right hemisphere controls the left part of our body. Moreover, it has often been claimed that our logical thinking (including arithmetic) and our language are mainly located in the left hemisphere of the brain, and our creativity in our right hemisphere. However, this is only partially true. The reality is a lot more complex, and other parts of the brain often take over when a certain part is damaged. In ancient texts - and unfortunately often also in more modern writings - you often read that hypnosis additionally activates the right hemisphere of the brain. During brain scans we can indeed see that a different pattern emerges than when one is asleep or awake. However, the investigation into what exactly is going on is by no means complete. What we can say with certainty is that the brain usually works as if what is suggested is actually registered, as opposed to what happens when one simply imagines something! Numerous experiments (often with PET scans, such as the experiment by Henry Szechtman of McMaster University in Ontario in 1998, or the pain reduction experiment of Pierre Rainville of the University of Montreal a year earlier) have already shown this. Brain experiments give us a good example of why hypnosis is so effective in (among other things) pain relief. For example, during a well-known experiment, subjects were confronted with pain stimuli of different intensities. They had to report how much pain they were in while their brain activity was also recorded. The subjective experience of pain of the same intensity differed enormously from subject to subject, but the activated brain area during the pain experience was especially interesting: after all, this was an area responsible for memory and experience! How strongly you experience pain is therefore largely related to the way you deal with it and not only to the objective intensity! You will never do anything you don't want to do The above statement is also largely correct, but it must be qualified somewhat. A particularly small portion of the population—perhaps about one percent—seems to reach a state labeled “stuporous.” These people seem to do just about anything asked. However, we believe that this has nothing to do with a bad or unstable character, or with absolute control of the hypnotist. What is going on can be explained by the phenomenon of narrowed attention. Because a stuporous person is so concentrated on the task at hand, he or she is often no longer really concerned with what is happening around him or her. You stay active In any case, hypnotized people never behave like passive machines: they are actively solving their problems, and are also creative when not suggested by the therapist. However, most things that happen to them are experienced as 'effortless', as if everything happens 'by itself'. Not everyone has the feeling of being 'away': you usually maintain contact with the outside world during a hypnosis session. It is precisely because of the possibility of disturbance that spectators are usually asked to remain quiet during shows. By the way, it's important that you can hear the hypnotist, right? Harmless Hypnosis is absolutely harmless. Negative suggestions can be harmful, but that also applies to everyday life. Anyone who is constantly told by the teacher that he or she is not making any sense of it runs the risk of believing it even when it is not true, or of having a dent in self-confidence. This means that hypnotherapists - like all people - should certainly be careful with the suggestions they give! For example, we think that most (or all) people suffering from multiple personality disorder (where people believe they have multiple personalities) have been given false suggestions (not necessarily under hypnosis) by people talking about different 'parts' or 'personalities'. And what to think about fortune tellers, whose predictions often become true because people (unconsciously) direct their actions accordingly - which does not necessarily mean that they are all quacks. Research also shows that when reminiscing, people often fantasize things! A therapist must therefore be careful of this, especially when it concerns alleged incest or abuse, for example. You always wake up It is impossible to remain 'stuck' in a hypnotic state. Anyone who remained in hypnosis would simply fall asleep and then wake up sober. It seems that people also often experience a hypnotic state in daily life, for example when reading, watching TV, or practicing yoga or meditation. Tool As mentioned, hypnosis is often an excellent tool for treating all kinds of ailments and problems of a psychological or psychosomatic nature. And since body and psyche have a huge mutual influence on each other, this means that you can alleviate or eliminate a lot of suffering with hypnosis. For example, it has been frequently shown that hypnosis is very effective against allergies, psoriasis and anxiety, but hypnotic techniques are also often used to achieve positive goals.

Trusted teacher: In our imagination, nourished by our education and our conditioning, we all believed one day that once married, having founded our family, we will realize our dream. Before taking the leap, we all idealize this life, and the stronger our hope, the stronger the awakening to the reality of life would probably be. Indeed, family life is another experience, a challenge and a process during which we learn a lot about ourselves, about the other and about the relationship. By choosing the right mediator, family and married life can therefore be a great opportunity to grow (sometimes in pain, in joy). Among the possible accompaniments, some examples: - The basics of a solid and fulfilled married or family life - How to resolve disagreements - The secrets of a balanced and balancing child education - Learn to express emotions - Manage families and in-laws - How to take your place within the couple - Define the respective roles of each Among the techniques used: - Non-violent communication tools - The “helping relationship” which aims to support people in crisis or conflict situations and help them resolve dysfunctions (emotional, relational difficulties, repetition of scenarios, lack of self-confidence, etc.) . It also leads to better self-knowledge and guides the person to discover their own solutions. The practitioner in helping relationship through his attentive and neutral listening, his training, his personality, his presence, his availability will allow the consultant to progress towards a better knowledge of his psychological mechanisms, respecting his blockages, his rhythm and his ability to hear. The therapist takes into account the subject as a whole: physical, psychological and social. Allow the consultant to access autonomy so that he can, when he feels ready, walk alone, in all inner serenity. - Coaching that allows you to act and take responsibility, which is the basis of effective and lasting change. Work on the management of emotions and relationships, confidence and self-esteem, self-affirmation is at the center of individual support, which allows you to live more fulfilled and authentic relationships. - Love coaching, which is personalized support based on understanding the mechanisms of love and focusing on putting an individual in this disposition of openness and acceptance of the other and their difference (which prepares to receive love) and to transfer keys of understanding to gain emotional maturity. It allows you to obtain concrete and measurable results in your love life. Through coaching, the consultant becomes aware of his resources, optimizes his potential and transforms his life. - Brief marital and family therapy. She is interested in how the problems manifest themselves in the present but the personal history of each is also approached. This insight helps to better understand the events experienced and to make connections between the past and what is at stake in the current difficulties. We introduce changes in behavior to open up perspectives, mainly relational. - Sophrology. Sophrology is a gentle method that promotes relaxation of the body and mind where you relearn how to listen to your feelings using controlled breathing exercises, muscle relaxation and mental suggestions. It allows you to develop your potential, regain self-confidence, manage your emotions and achieve your goals. It will be, at times, interesting to use this technique to manage to unblock the mind that is blocking and to give the body more amplitude to welcome what presents itself. ➤ THE COACH PSYCHOANALYST PSYCHOPRACTITIONER Trained at the Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League University in the United States, our psychoanalyst, psycho-practitioner and behaviorist coach has specialized and worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, regularly speaking in forums and conferences, and also offering personalized INDIVIDUAL support. ➤ PLACE, TIMETABLE, PRICES ✓ Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Fribourg-Zurich-Neuchâtel-Lugano-Montreux-Basel-Neuchâtel-Bern-Lucerne-Brussels-Luxembourg-Paris-Lyon.

Trusted teacher: Born following behavioral observation, neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) designates a whole set of techniques (dissociation, reframing, etc.) and methods aimed at promoting the personal development of the individual. Neuro-linguistic programming is concerned with how humans function in a given environment, based on their behavioral patterns. Through a set of techniques and methods, NLP helps to change the way an individual perceives his environment. Indeed, each individual has a map of the world which is specific to him, and which is modulated by his beliefs and his conditioning. The purpose of NLP is to modify this map in order to enable the individual to achieve their goals more effectively. NLP therefore provides the necessary tools to make personal and structural changes, in order to create new potential for success. Neuro-linguistic programming is primarily concerned with "How to make it work well?" Rather than "Why is this not working?" ". It suggests recognizing the behaviors we adopt when communicating, and then making changes if desired. - “Programming” refers to the fact that we are conditioned by our environment which includes a system of beliefs and behaviors. - “Neuro” means that these programs are encoded in our neural circuits. - “Linguistics” refers to language, whether verbal or non-verbal. Examples of benefits of Neurolinguistic Programming: -Improvement of the mother-child relationship -Improved performance and decreased anxiety -Improvement of psychological difficulties and quality of life (..) The objective of this training: to target the tools which will support your communication, your image, will help you to decipher your interlocutor (...) to better achieve your objectives. Thus, after having exchanged with you about the essential blockages that you encounter, targeted areas for improvement, your objectives (...), pragmatic tools, techniques & methods will be put in place based on the initial data. Combined with these theoretical elements, their implementation will follow (for example, by filmed simulations or at the end of the session in real life). Course of a session: in conversational form, the practitioner identifies the problem and determines the objective with the client by asking a set of questions. He directs his questions towards solutions rather than the story that generated the situation. Then according to his practice, the practitioner uses the tools at his disposal in order to remove blockages and promote behavioral change, while deciphering the communication of the other as well as his own, thanks to specific NLP tools.

His availability is most pliable, as he exhibits a constant readiness to alter his docket to accede to the necessities of his students. This adaptability is rare and precious quality, one that has played a seminal role in my time near the finals.

David’s unwavering dedication to the academic success of his students is truly remarkable and deeply appreciated by those who benefit from it. What distinguishes David is not solely his mastery in mathematics, but his amiable and cordial demeanour.
