A MUST have hypnosis book
Trance work is a MUST have book for anyone utilizing hypnosis within their practice. As a counselor and hypnotherapist, this book is a valueable tool in my toolbox. This book is very thorough and very well written. The interviews were very insightful. I wish I had known about this book earlier.
