Product reviews for Hypnosis for Inner Conflict Resolution

`Hypnosis for Inner Conflict Resolution` scrutinises in detail the whole spectrum of Parts Therapy which Roy Hunter advocates as the most effective solution to resolving the client's inner turmoil which, if unresolved, will almost invariably hamper the attainment of his important life goals. This therapeutic methodology views the client's unconscious self as a multi-faceted collage of sub-personalities, perhaps the most instrumental of which is his inner child, which exercise influence over all his behaviour and motivation. Parts Therapy as a client-centred approach was originally pioneered by Charles Tebbetts and Paul Federn and is akin to disciplines such as ego-state therapy, voice dialogue, inner-child healing and sub-personality theories.
In `Hypnosis for Inner Conflict Resolution` Roy Hunter explains that therapeutic intervention with Parts Therapy is able to assist the client when two or more of his unconscious parts are pulling in opposite directions. The hypnotherapist can effectively facilitate the client in contacting and communicating with these incompatible parts so that he can initiate a process of therapeutic mediation. Parts Therapy, moreover, will aim to uncover the root cause of the client's distress and help him to overcome any unconscious resistance to change in order to shape a satisfaction-settlement of his inner conflict.
`Hypnosis for Inner Conflict Resolution` examines the four primary objectives of the Parts Therapy facilitator which will constitute the major turning points in terms of the direction in which the therapeutic journey may proceed for the client. Initially the therapist may employ techniques for hypnotic suggestion and open-screen imagery which will seek to empower the client to change and motivate him to succeed. Next the client must take the important step of identifying and resolving the originating cause of his conflict. To this end the facilitator may employ hypnotic regression and ideomotor questioning by way of inviting the client to reveal his inner truth. The client can then be invited to release his unconscious, pent-up emotion associated with the root cause of his dilemma and to undertake any self-forgiveness or reframing of the situation as necessary. Finally the client can be encouraged to eliminate any negative self-image and to instil a belief in permanent resolution and ultimate success.
In `Hypnosis for Inner Conflict Resolution` Roy Hunter carefully considers the initial preparation of the client who is to undergo the therapeutic process. For this groundwork the hypnotherapist should explain the concept and purpose of Parts Therapy so that the client may be involved in planning his journey. Once hypnosis has been induced and deepened, a place of peace and/or a safe-zone can be reached by the client wherein the therapist may verify the depth of trance and set up ideomotor responses.
The main thrust of the use of Parts Therapy in `Hypnosis for Inner Conflict Resolution` details the comprehensive eleven-step procedure which will guide the reader through the whole continuum of helping and healing the client. The client can firstly be invited to identify his unconscious parts for motivation, control and conflict and gain the permission of these opposing parts to undertake negotiation. Next a process of gaining rapport with the client's disparate parts, understanding the functions of these various parts and summoning parts into the negotiating arena can be facilitated. Once mediation has been initiated and agreement has been reached between the client's opposing parts, a final integration process may be achieved.
Roy Hunter provides a remarkably detailed exposé of Parts Therapy methodology and leaves no stone unturned in explaining to the reader precisely how to go about therapeutic intervention and how to deal with every eventuality in terms of overcoming obstacles and potentially problematic responses from the client. The Parts Therapy journey can also be utilised by those practitioners with a metaphysical inclination who may encounter the client who will subscribe to spiritual doctrine. `Hypnosis for Inner Conflict Resolution` concludes with a plentiful array of case-study examples to assist the practitioner in understanding the process even more thoroughly.
