WARM GREETINGS IN THIS HOLIDAY SEASON. I AM CELEBRATING MY 16TH YEAR NOW AS A HYPNOTHERAPIST AND WHAT A GREAT 16 YEARS IT HAS BEEN. OVER THE YEARS I HAVE HAD MANY TRAINERS. SOME OF THEM WERE MEN, WOMAN , YOUNG, OLDER, ENLIGHTENING, ENTERTAINING AND FUN, OR GROUCHY AND-OR ABUSIVE. WE ALL LEARN FROM BOTH THE NEGATIVE AND POSITIVE BUT OF COURSE WE WANT THE LEARNING EXPERIENCE TO BE AS UPLIFTING AS POSSIBLE. PERSONALLY, I LEARN FASTER AND EASIER WHEN I AM NOT HAVING TO DEFEND MYSELF OR GET DISTRACTED. WHAT THEN ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS TO CONSIDER WHEN CHOOSING A TRAINER. 1. DO YOU LIKE THEIR STYLE? THE BEST WAY TO FIND OUT IS TO MEET THEM IN PERSON OR BETTER YET, GET A SESSION. 2. IS EXPERIENCE IMPORTANT TO YOU? THEY ARE A TEACHER AFTER ALL AND YOU WANT TO LEARN MORE THEN WHAT IS IN THE MANUAL. 3. ARE THEY HONEST AND ETHICAL? CHECK OUT WHAT IS WRITTEN IF YOU HAVE DOUBTS. 4. WHAT ABOUT THE PRICE? ARE THE TRAINER’S PRICES COMPARABLE TO OTHER TRAINERS IN CANADA FOR THE SAME COURSE? IF THE PRICE SEEMS HIGH, IS IT BECAUSE THEY ARE AN OLD MASTER WHO OFFERS SOMETHING SPECIAL, OR IS IT BECAUSE THERE ARE NO RULES AND THEY CAN CHARGE WHAT THEY WANT. 5. ARE THE TIMES OF TRAINING IMPORTANT TO YOU? SOME OF THE NGH COURSES ARE 10 DAYS IN A ROW WITH A WEEK-END IN BETWEEN OR SOME ARE ON WEEK-ENDS ( WHICH CAN BE MORE CONVENIENT FOR THOSE OF YOU WITH WEEK DAY JOBS.) 6. HOW INTERACTIVE WOULD YOU LIKE THE CLASS TO BE? IN MY EXPERIENCE , THE MORE IN CLASS PRACTISE THERE IS , THE BETTER. 7. IS MENTORING IMPORTANT TO YOU? IF IT IS, YOU WANT A TRAINER WHO IS WILLING TO HELP YOU WHEN YOU START TO ACTUALLY SEE CLIENTS. I HOPE THIS INFORMATION REALLY HELPS ANY OF YOU WHO ARE CONSIDERING A SERIOUS COURSE IN THE FUTURE, WEATHER IT IS HYPNOSIS OR ANY OTHER. I WISH YOU PEACE, HAPPINESS AND WONDERFUL FUTURE LEARNING EXPERIENCES IN 2016 . WANDA
