Smoking Ban in Dallas May Cause Rise in Hypnosis Clients

for people caught smoking at bars and other public places (or even within 15 feet of them)  in Dallas, but even more interesting is that the owners may be fined as well if a patron is smoking in or within the 15 foot range of their establishment! 

We work with two kinds of smokers.  The kind who have quit many times before pretty easily, but just find it difficlt to make it stick and we specialize in hard-core smokers, those who have ususally smoked for 15 or more years and find it just too stressful or emotional when they try to quit.  The hard-core smokers usually will be difficult to live with when they try to quit or they’ll start gaining weight.

Researchers say Hypnosis Should Be Used for Psoriasis

All 11 received some form of hypnosis.  The results were so good that the researchers said that hypnosis should be a form of treatment in those who are highly suggestible and who suffer from this ailment:

Source: Tausk, F. & Whitmore, S.E. (1999). A Pilot Study of Hypnosis in the Treatment of Patients with Psoriasis. Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics, 68(4): 221-5.

My Take:  People are pretty much equally suggestible as long as they are willing to follow instructions and are of normal intelligence.  My clients and those of my collegues almost always reach at least the threshold of somnambulism when they follow the directions we give them.  Most studies, such as this one, are done using out-dated techniques.  My bet is that almost all of the subjects would do well if the hypnotists had advanced training even the ones that the study believes are less suggestible.
