CLINICAL HYPNOSIS, Training Manual From A - ZFOREWORDBy Dr. Jane GreerWhen Rene Bastarache asked me to write the foreword for HYPNOTHERAPYCERTIFICATION -Training manual from A - Z, I was very excited for two reasons.First of all I had the opportunity to enroll in one of Rene’s HypnotherapyCertification Courses, which utilizes the same materials included in his book. I foundRene Bastarache to be an outstanding teacher who is able to take the hypnosistraining and present it to students in an extremely clear, precise and easy to learnmanner. His ability to integrate clinical theory with direct hypnosis practice is superbas he simplifies the concepts and makes them easy to apply.I am especially impressed with the way he takes the metaphysical aspects (theunseen) of hypnotherapy and incorporates them with the clinical aspects to create amore thorough understanding of what hypnotherapy really is and how to use it moreeffectively. Rene’s use of stories, humor and past experiences makes the learningprocess truly dynamic.The second reason I am excited about writing this forward is that Rene’s bookHYPNOTHERAPY CERTIFICATION -Training manual from A - Z will showeveryone the depth and breath of both his vast knowledge and thinking. He is morethan a Hypnotherapy Instructor. Rene is one of the leading, cutting edge thinkers inthe growth of hypnotherapy today. I think this book has the capacity to be thedefinitive text in applied hypnotherapy. Rene’s thoughts on self-image, creativevisualization, stress and goal achievement are visionary and a must for anyoneinterested in excellence in professional as well as personal development.It is my hope that you will get as much out of this experience as I did. Read thisbook and let it help you to harness the potential within you and others.Dr. Jane Greer, is a nationally known marriage and family therapist inManhattan, NY and the author of:The Afterlife Connection,Gridlock,How Could You Do This To Me& Adult Sibling Rivalry.#No use or reproduction of this manual or materials is permitted without the express written permission of:The American School of Hypnosis - www.ChooseHypnosis.com6
