Milton Erickson Lives (well almost)

This is a post for the NLP/hypnotherapyy/Milton Erickson-inclined.

And even if you’re not one of the above, you just might be after the result of this post.

In a nutshell, Milton Erickson was the man mainly responsible for giving hypnosis a reliable name, especially in the clinical field.

His use of words and voice tone (plus a caring attitude) led him to be one of the people modelled by Bandler and Grinder when they put together the first NLP (neuro-linguistic programming principles) to help people transform themselves and others with more ease.

So…

So, what, you my ask, does this have to do you?

Well, as the great man died some years ago, recordings of him are few and far between.

But, by the miracle of youtube, (upon which, I admit, I’ve been idly browsingyou can still see him in action.

Yes, the recording is in black and white.

And yes, the sound quality could be better.

But despite those small quibbles, you’ll still get a great feeling for how Milton Erickson approached his work and helped people, via this link:
