Download or read book The Spell of Hypnos written by Silvia Montiglio and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sleep was viewed as a boon by the ancient Greeks: sweet, soft, honeyed, balmy, care-loosening, as the Iliad has it. But neither was sleep straightforward, nor safe. It could be interrupted, often by a dream. It could be the site of dramatic intervention by a god or goddess. It might mark the transition in a narrative relationship, as when Penelope for the first time in weeks slumbers happily through Odysseus' vengeful slaughter of her suitors. Silvia Montiglio's imaginative and comprehensive study of the topic illuminates the various ways in which writers in antiquity used sleep to deal with major aspects of plot and character development. The author shows that sleeplessness, too, carries great weight in classical literature. Doom hangs by a thread as Agamemnon - in Iphigenia in Aulis - paces, restless and sleepless, while around him everyone else dozes on. Exploring recurring tropes of somnolence and wakefulness in the Iliad, the Odyssey, Athenian drama, the Argonautica and ancient novels by Xenophon, Chariton, Heliodorus and Achilles Tatius, this is a unique contribution to better understandings of ancient Greek writing.

Download or read book Hypnosis Without Trance written by James Tripp and published by Real Magic Media. This book was released on 2021-04-21 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This material has taught me more about hypnosis than my previous 20 years in psychology and 4 years as a practicing Hypnotherapist [and] should be a standard requirement for ANY Hypnotist wanting to bring about real change. If you don't learn this stuff you will be left behind!" - Michael Skirving, DNLP, DHyp, LAPHP Hypnosis: is it actually real? What causes its strange effects? And can everyone easily learn to do it? Since the seminal work of hypnosis pioneer James Braid in the 1840s, the dominant model for understanding hypnosis has been that it is simply a special state (popularly referred to as 'hypnotic trance') that renders people unusually responsive to suggestion. By this model, the practice of hypnosis is simply that of the induction of hypnotic trance, followed by the delivery of suggestions for the desired results. By summer 2008, James Tripp had been working professionally with hypnosis for 6 years. Whilst he had used what he had learned to great effect with his clients (from manual therapy to coaching and changework), it had become increasingly clear that something was amiss with the traditional trance model - instead of his clients responding to suggestion as a result of entering 'trance', they were apparently entering 'trance' as a result of being given suggestions. The cart seemed very much before the horse. This led Tripp to embark on a mission to break down and rebuild hypnosis and suggestion work; to uncover how it really worked and also to see if it could be done more effectively and efficiently. To find a suitable laboratory for his research he stepped out of his hypnotherapy office and onto the streets of London. Across the next year he developed consistent methods for the effective evocation of classic hypnotic phenomena without using trance inductions; simply structuring suggestions and making requests that worked with people's everyday cognitive faculties to create mind-bending results. In 2009 Tripp started demonstrating his work and sharing his ideas via the Hypnosis Without Trance blog. The content was divisive to say the least - while some traditionalists were upset or angered by the assertions, many others were liberated and empowered by the material. "Hypnosis Without Trance has blown my mind and completely changed my thoughts on how hypnosis works with my clients - it's clicked together a lot of gaps that my traditional learning couldn't explain..." - Michelle Marsh, (Hypnotherapist) "I think this is the most clear and understanding approach I have ever seen or read. Thanks a lot!" - Raul de la Horra (Hypnotist, Psychotherapist and Magician) This book represents the culmination of that period of experimentation and rebuilding, presenting a new central model for hypnosis (The Hypnotic Loop). Further to this it extensively unpacks the tools, tactics and psychological subtleties required for the effective facilitation of powerful hypnotic experiences. Hypnosis Without Trance is for you if you are looking to understand how hypnosis really works, and how you might better facilitate it. Whether you are a student of hypnosis, established practitioner or curious spectator, its clear exposition will significantly deepen your understanding and grasp of this fascinating craft. "Definitely the next important big step for me - a practicing hypnotherapist for over 20 years. Absolutely brilliant! Thank you!!"- Richard Whitehurst (Hypnotherapist) "I gained more understanding of how hypnosis really works from HWT than anywhere else, and think it's a must for anyone serious about hypnosis." - Lazarus Stone (Professional Mentalist) "Using this approach I have gained more confidence and I am far more relaxed as a hypnotist than any time in the past 20 years." - Gary Plumridge (Hypnotherapist)

Book excerpt: Based on a journal the author kept during his time in the Maquis, this book ranges in style from abrupt and sometimes enigmatic reflections, in which the poet seeks to establish compass bearings in the darkness of Occupied France, to narrative descriptions that throw into vivid relief the dramatic and often tragic nature of the issues he had to confront as the head of his Resistance network. A tribute to the individual men and women who fought at his side, this volume is also a meditation on the white magic of poetry and a celebration of the power of beauty to combat terror and transform our lives.

Book excerpt: Therese doesn't like being stuck on the sidelines, especially when the entire pantheon is in trouble. Hypnos and Jen aren't married long when they realize something's missing: they both want to have a child, especially when they see how happy Therese and Than are with their twins. But the creation of new gods is against the rules, and they aren't willing to give up their immortality. Hypnos goes to Mount Olympus to offer Zeus a deal. He'll make it his mission to find out the source of the recent attacks on Gaia--horrible earthquakes that have already released two monsters from the Titan Pit--if Zeus will agree to let him and Jen have one immortal child. Because the attacks are getting humans killed and none of the other gods have been able to discover a lead, Zeus, in his desperation, agrees. But this new quest just might get Hypnos swallowed and trapped for all eternity, and there seems to be nothing Therese and Than can do to stop it. This young adult fantasy is for lovers of Greek mythology, paranormal romance, and action and adventure.
