Hypnosis and the Immune System

1.5 Continuing Education Hours

Dyan Haspel-Johnson, Ph.D

Beverly Hills

• Overview of Workshop:
  Underlining the connection between mind and body, I will explain how hypnosis can be used specifically to support immune function in both general and specific ways. Simply inducing a relaxing hypnotic state supports the immune system and the body’s general well-being. However I will discuss how to move to the next step of giving specific direct and indirect suggestions to strengthen the body and activate immune health.
  

• Objectives of Workshop:
  1. To explain some specific and general ways to address and activate the immune system.
  2. To give examples of short and long-term health and healing strategies for using hypnosis to boost immune response.
  3. To do a group induction to attendees of the workshop as an in vivo example of immune support directed hypnosis.
