Product reviews for The Answer Within

This text is a detailed account of what I consider to be the Master of Hypnosis and therapy, Milton Erickson. I would have loved to have met the man in person to experience being in a room with such a maestro, but it was never my good fortune to do so, however this book creates the closest experience of Erickson you are likely to find.

It covers his philosophies on human beings and the interactions within themselves and with others in the world. It demonstrates how he formed and developed his ideas and brilliantly describes what one is looking for within the client for them to find that "the answers within'.

As you read through the fundamental frameworks of Ericksonian therapy and the intricate linguistic and metaphorical frameworks, it is a challenging read. Thank goodness it is all brought alive by case studies where the words can then really resonate within.

This is certainly a necessary read for those serious about working with hypnosis.
