Opening doors is the main theme of the conference.
The doors open when the Icelandic Hypnosis Society hosts Its first International hypnosis conference. It will be visited by many of the finest clinical hypnotists in the world. Some come with very interesting presentations and some come as guests, but they could just as easily be among the presenters. But all come to share.
There is a Nordic subtheme. Representatives of all the main Nordic hypnosis societies are attending the conference. They will use this opportunity to discuss the best way to work together to promote the use of clinical hypnosis in the Nordic countries.
We are also opening the doors for the Icelandic healthcare community anew, showing the clearly beneficial effect of hypnosis as an additional part of treatment. Those benefits used to be well established within Icelandic healthcare, but that changed when people outside of that sphere started to promote hypnosis as an alternative treatment.
Hypnosis opens doors to a deeper level of mind and body interaction.
Hypnosis for IBS has been one of the a finest examples of the beneficial use of hypnosis in healthcare. It is a treat for us all that Olafur Palsson will tell us about his work in this field.
There will also be other experts in hypnosis for gatrointestinal disorders attending, though not presenting about that field. Susanna Carolusson from Sweden will talk about Ego States and dr. Anna Knakkergaard from Denmark will be attending as a guest. There will be ample opportunities to talk to all those experts in this field.
Other presenters open doors to the variety of methods that are used within hypnosis. Some of those methods are the essential to understand and to enhance currently popular modes of treatment such as EMDR and IFS. Some are less applicable to specific currently popular methods but are very effective in other ways. Many of those methods are highly effective ways to influence people, often indirectly, towards making better choices in their life. All of them show how to modulate and change thoughts, feelings, behavior, sensations and even memories and time, in ways that are not possible outside of the hypnotic state.
The doors are opening and we invite you to join us on the 29th of May.
