LIVE! in Orlando
​
Virginia Satir, the originator of family therapy and one of the inspiring models behind Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) once said that "We all have everything we need to accomplish our goals".  This is one of the cardinal presuppositions in modern change work.   Yet some of the changes that we seek seem to require a superhero to get the job done.   In this evening discussion and demonstration we will explore this presupposition and find out how to access our secret and hidden abilities.

Karen Hand and Michael Watson
"Demystifying Regression, Reimprinting and Reconsolidation"
Regression is one of the most commonly used vehicles in hypnotic intervention, yet it is cloaked in mystery and difficult for many to use.  In this evening program, Michael and Karen will share with you their experience with regression, time travel, managing belief change through re-imprinting, and how re-consolidation is the secret ingredient in all changework.
