Conversational Trances occur in virtually every good therapy session. Possessing phenomena of “regular” hypnosis, they speak powerfully both directly and indirectly to the unconscious. Often this opportunity is ignored. This workshop will show ways to create, use and become comfortable trusting both your and the client’s own abilities with this.
This workshop invites a therapy that helps people learn to shift their mental states in order to adopt the stance needed for the moment as an alternative to use of meds to adapt to a disturbed environment. This therapy encourages people to use their natural full range of consciousness in order to transform their environments. Many environments are not human friendly and endanger the well-being of our-selves as workers and our children.
Clinical case demonstrates an integrative approach of treating deep trauma. DTMR approximates east and west, old and new traditions. Utilizes concepts from occidental psychotherapy, transpersonal influ-ences and some about Kardecism, Buddhism and Xamanism. Through a deep trance, active, eclectic DTMR responds as a tool for patients with PTSD and dissociation.
This session will illustrate the Ericksonian utilization principle, which states that under proper conditions, a problem may easily transform into a solution. The demonstration will show how to develop such conditions via the experience of “generative trance,” such that positive shifts in a person’s somatic, cognitive and field experience lead to positive changes.

BT10 Workshop 32 - Mindfulness and Trance: A Third Generation Approach to Transformational Change - Stephen Gilligan, PhD
This workshop presents a third generation approach to the therapeutic use of trance. The first generation was authoritarian, "knocking out" the conscious mind and programming the unconscious mind. The second generation, developed by Milton Erickson, respected the creative unconscious but not the conscious intelligence of the client. This third generation work emphasizes the complementary intelligences of the conscious and creative unconscious minds, and explores how to shift both to a generative level that allows significant transformational change.
Clients in pain yearn for sleep; comfort just out of reach. Focus first on establishing soothing sleep and encouraging nocturnal restorative functions. Treating remaining pain stays in the day’s domain. Hypnosis enlists the mind and body’s natural processes, restoring healthy sleep. Strategic protocols combine physiology of sleep and pain management with the client’s own experience. These are further reinforced by self-hypnosis techniques. Program includes demonstration, application of trance script protocols, and case study discussion. With Deborah Beckman.
This workshop will use PowerPoint images, research, theories, examples and experiential exercises to demonstrate how therapeutically playful interaction with others may create lasting solutions by producing spiritually-uplifting catharsis and creatively explorative trance states capable of replacing sensations of helplessness with sensations of empowerment, enhancing sensations of meaningful relatedness, encouraging immune system functioning and possibly serving to “wake up” otherwise dormant genetic functioning and activate brain plasticity. With Betty Blue.
