Adam interviews Michael Perez

This week’s ‘Hypnosis in the news’ section is replaced by Adam discussing the differences between forms of meditation and self-hypnosis from a neuroscientific and phenomenological perspective.

This week’s professional discussion with Michael Perez discusses Michael’s own integrated, systemic approach to hypnosis as well as sharing modern understandings of cognition and neurological function within aspects of hypnotic practice and how we can discard 19th and 20th century frameworks when thinking about the different schools of hypnosis and much more besides.

The factoid of the week this week examines an impressive application of self-hypnosis for dealing with pain of persistent tension headaches.
