• Archive: I thoroughly enjoyed the DVD of The Secret Hypnosis Trance Inductions of Ormond McGill with plenty of never before seen techniques . . .
• well, the cover blurb says never before seen but that’s not completely accurate . . .
• while quite a number of them have not been publicly demonstrated before, a few of them are described in McGill’s incredibly comprehensive The New Encyclopedia of Stage Hypnotism which is pretty much THE classic for those interested in stage hypnosis (therapists and anyone else interested in hypnosis should have it too, it’s that important and that comprehensive).Of course, reading a brief description of a technique and seeing it demonstrated by one of the living legends of hypnosis is entirely a different thing.
• McGill has been performing and practicing hypnosis professionally longer than most of the big names and old-timers of the profession have been alive and he’s still going strong and so it is truly a joy and an honor to have the opportunity to see him work his magick in live . . .
• demonstration.While I don’t think I will be using the Clock Dial induction anytime soon with clients, it is an interesting approach that I believe can be adapted to some interesting applications.
