Hypnotic regression often provides an opportunity for powerful therapy. Some therapists limit the possibilities for healing by a standard procedure of emotionally detaching the client during regression. However, openness to the subconscious emotions, when appropriate, can frequently offer greater potential for more profound transformation. Processes such as the affect bridge and Gestalt can facilitate access to the emotions during the process of more comprehensive work.
This workshop includes a live demonstration and an overview of methods of working with regression, emphasizing Churchill’s 15 Steps in Emotional Clearing Regression. The use of ideomotor methods will be explored, including as a means of guidance. The subject of recovered memories will be addressed, including issues of responsibilities of the therapist and how to avoid influencing memories.
