In science, outstanding practitioners are many, and gifted teachers are few. It’s rare to find both in one person. Professor Ursula James is that rare exception - combining deep expertise with a talent for teaching that inspires and endures. Whichever course you choose, and at whatever level, you’ll be guided by someone uniquely equipped to help you achieve your goals.
Dr Mark Feldman
General Practitioner
Having tried another hypnotherapy training, I am very pleased to say how enjoyable this course is. I would liken it to reading a good book. Easy to understand, informative and enjoyable. I would highly recommend it to anyone, whether for professional purposes or just for your own self learning.

HypnoSOS episode 23 – Make Decisions
Make yourself comfortable… sit down or lie down, it really doesn’t matter which you do… as long as you can be comfortable… gently allow your eyes to close… and notice that as soon as your eyes are closed you become more aware of sound… pay attention to any sounds around or within you… pay attention to them so that you can just let them go… they are of no concern to you now… focus your attention back on the sound of my voice… the sound of my voice… the words for the moment really don’t matter… and you will notice that even in these moments… already your breathing has changed… it has become a little slower… a little deeper… and this will continue as we go on… and if there are any sounds around you or within you… you can let them float into the distance… focusing in on the sound of my voice… simply the sound of my voice that will help to carry you into an ever deepening state… of physical as well as mental state… of deep… deep… peace… deep… deep peace… and in these moments… and from this moment it is your breath that will carry you into a state of relaxation… your out breath to be precise… each time you breathe out… you can let go of a little unnecessary nervous tension… every breath out can help you to feel lighter… ever more relaxed… regardless of the words that I say… the sound of my voice… that too will help you help you… help you to go ever deeper… ever deeper and deeper still… ever deeper… deeper… deeper still…
And in a few moments in time… in a few moments in time… you will hear me count down from 10 to 1… and with each descending number… each descending number between 10 and 1… so you can go one tenth deeper… deeper… deeper still… deeper… deeper… deeper still… into this space of relaxation… but also of clarity… a space where you can and you will… be able to make decisions more easily… you will hear me count down from 10 to 1 … and know that by the time I reach zero… you will be in that state… and in that space… where decisions will come to you much more easily… there’s no need to think of anything for the moment… all you need to do is recognise that… in here, in this space… you have control… so… ready… 10… going deeper… deeper… deeper still… going deeper… deeper… deeper still… 9… 8… 7… deeper… deeper… deeper still… and if you experience a sensation of drifting or floating that will be fine… just fine… it only means that you are drifting into an ever deepening state of peace… 6… deeper… deeper… deeper… deeper still… deeper… deeper… deeper still… 5… 4… 3… deeper and deeper… deeper and deeper… 2… and 1… and… now… take three deep breaths and let your mind carry you into a space of confidence… a space where you have all the facts to hand… a space where you can make decisions… and there are always decisions to be made… some important, some not… some immediate… others for the long term… but there are always decisions to be made… and in this space there is a part of your mind that is able to make them clearly… move into this space…
I will remain silent for a few moments… if you wish to use it now you can… but if not, you can return to it in your sleep and in your dreams…[SILENCE]… and the most important thing now is not necessarily to make that decision… but to know that you can… and perhaps at night when you sleep, when you dream… this will happen… and you will wake knowing what it is that you want to do… you have control… and… rest for a moment because in a few moments in time… in a few moments in time… you will hear me count up from 1 to 10… and at the count of 8 your eyes will naturally and easily open… and at the count of 10 you will be fully wide awake, fully aware, fully alert… every healthy, normal and appropriate part of you back in the present… and remember the word present means gift… you have control… so ready… 1… 2… 3… more aware… 4… 5… 6… more alert… 7… 8… eyes open… wide open… 9… and 10… fully wide awake… have a good stretch… rest for a moment… you have control.
