Trances of Stasis and Change... Live in Edinburgh!

A two-day workshop in enriching experience and increasing choice
(both within yourself and those around you)

What this workshop is

This workshop is an exploration and a co-creation. Whilst it has themes, it has no fixed content. You will not explicitly learn specific processes (though such processes may appear), but instead participate in an experiential exploration of human sense and experience and genuine curiosity of all participant's curious engagement.

What this workshop is not

It is not the teaching of explicit content, methods or tools. Neither is it an explicit 'how to' (it is required you bring your right hemisphere as well as your left! :) ) Please be extra clear - this is NOT a Hypnosis Without Trance workshop (although HWT principles will be in play), and is definitely not for those interested only in performance.

What can I expect to get out of it?

Providing you engage with genuine curiosity, a little dash of playfulness and an open mind, you can expect to get a different way of seeing and a different way of being that empowers you to be a better catalyst for change within your own life and the world around you. If you have specific changes in your life you are looking to make, bring them and see what changes occur! (Caution here: this is not a 'therapy' class -it is about enriched experience and choice).

Is this a 'hypnosis' training?

Yes. No. Maybe. This is a training exploring sense making, human subjective experience and choice. 'Hypnosis' (not a simple term to define) has a LOT to say on this subject, and so we will inevitably play with some ideas from that world. That said, this is not about teaching hypnosis skills or protocols AND there is no requirement to have such skills to attend. All that said, if you are a practitioner of hypnosis, you will likely be a better one coming out of this workshop. If you have hypnosis questions, I am happy for them to be brought into the space.

Is this a changework training?

Yes. No. Maybe. This is NOT a training in specific changework methods or protocols. Nor is it for professional change workers exclusively (though, if you are such, you will get goodness from this providing you engage generatively). It IS about enriching experience and increasing choice so, in a sense, this will make all who attend better 'agents of change' in a MORE general rather than specific professional sense. If you have changework questions, I am happy for them to be brought into the space.

Is this a personal development workshop?

It is definitely that, but definitely not of the 'three easy (mindless) steps to fix your life' variety. The aim is to expand your 'map of the world' in ways that enrich experience and increase choice. Each individual will take uniquely what they take from it and everyone is encouraged to proactively track the changes that unfold out into their lives in the weeks and months following. Come ready to shake loose old cherished truths and open to new potentials and possibilities. If you have personal development questions or personal challenges, I am happy for them to be brought into the space.
