So, you want to be a stage hypnotist but you have no idea where to begin?

Well, you could read a book. You could watch at DVD. Or, you really should attend the ‘Advanced Stage Hypnosis’ seminar with Brian Dean in Vegas, October 6 - 8, 2008.

I met Brian Dean while sitting at the National Guild of Hypnotists (NGH) convention in 2006. Never knowing him before, he just walks up to me and asks, “Hey! Are you Bryan Dean?”

Not having a name tag or anything to identify myself to onlookers, I was amazed. You see, my “stage name” is Bryan Dean. His is Brian Dean. We’re both stage hypnotists. Weird.

And, so began our friendship.

Who Is Brian Dean?

Brian Dean is an amazingly accomplished stage hypnotist since 1999. He performs regularly on world-class cruise lines and at corporate shows nationally.

He’s also trained many (now) successful stage hypnotists who are literally making well into 6 figures income-wise. These persons paid — and I am NOT exaggerating — between $10,000 and $15,000 for a week-long training with Brian.

Fortunately for YOU, Brian is beginning his Advanced Stage Hypnosis seminar in October. And, it’s just at a FRACTION of his regular fees.

Why?

Brian has his mentored students pay the large fees because they will work with him, train with him and work FOR him. It’s limited and very exclusive.

People like me — and probably you, too — have a career (I’m a clinical hypnotist, as you know) and don’t “need” a $15,000 training. You just want to know what Brian knows, right?

Well, I and several other hypnotists have been bugging Brian to put together a seminar like this one. I don’t plan to work for Brian or live on a cruise ship…

…but I do want to know what Brian Dean knows!

So, when this offer was put together — I was the first one to sign up! (Yep. I’ll be there and NO, I didn’t get a discount. Hmmm.)

So, What’s So Special About
THIS Stage Hypnosis Training?

Brian explains, “There is a colossal difference between success and failure. But there is only a ’small difference’ between good and EXTRAORDINARY. However, this ’small difference’ requires that you recognize and master several essential details often regarded by mediocre performers as unnecessary.

“Is it hard to recognize and master the details? Well, unless you know the strategies, possess the knowledge and take the proper steps needed to do it (and do it right) it can be downright difficult.

Here’s the good news – It doesn’t have to be. I don’t teach you how to improve 1 element of your show by 100% — I teach you how to improve 100 elements of your show by 1%”.

This training will focus on teaching you how to perform, implement and master the essential details of show structure, delivery and execution.

Folks, this is what I, personally, want to know more about.

Yes, my show is good. It COULD be BETTER. So, I’m going to Vegas in October.

Why do YOU need to go to this seminar? Because THIS IS THE SEMINAR THAT WILL TEACH YOU WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW. (That’s why.) If you miss out, you’ll be kicking yourself.

Want to be like “all the other” stage hypnotists… doing the same ol’ tired routines… from show to show…

… or do you want to TAKE YOUR SHOW TO THE NEXT LEVEL?

The most successful professionals in every industry never stop learning and growing. Learn and grow. Come to Vegas.

The fee? Just $1850 per person.

But, Here’s The Bad News

It’s limited to twenty (20) persons. Period. That’s it… and it’s filling up f-a-s-t.

The good news is that you can reserve a seat now for just $350.

It was James Braid (1795-1861) who both destroyed the superstition of “animal magnetism” and constructed the preliminary foundations of scientific hypnotism. He demonstrated, namely, that no invisible “fluid” passes between the practician and his subject in trance, and that the entire phenomenon depends simply on suggestion.

Nothing illustrates this achievement better than the following incident related by Bramwell “One day Braid called on a London physician who used mesmerism in his practice. The latter told him that he had been obtaining wonderful results from the use of magnets, and offered to demonstrate this on a subject who was at that moment in a state of mesmeric trance.

He asserted, for example, that when he touched the subject’s limbs with the magnet, this produced catalepsy; and, certainly, what he had predicted, happened. Braid, in his turn, stated that he had an instrument in his pocket which was quite as powerful, and offered to prove this by operating on the same subject. He then informed the doctor, in the subject’s presence, that when he put the instrument into her hands it would produce catalepsy; and it at once did so, just as in the former instance. Having terminated the catalepsy by means of passes, Braid placed the instrument in another position, and stated that it would now have the very reverse effect—that the subject would not be able to hold it, owing to paralysis of her muscles: this, as well as many other experiments, was successful.

Braid then privately explained to the doctor the real nature and powers of his apparently magical instrument. It was nothing more than his portmanteau-key and ring, and its varied powers were merely the result of the predictions which the subject had heard Braid make. The experiments, he said, simply illustrated the power of suggestion during hypnosis: neither magnet nor portmanteau-key played any real part in them.”

I have a new favorite TV show: Gordon Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares. And, anyone reading this may start to say, “Okay… but what’s that got to do with hypnotism, Bryan?”

Good question. And the answer is nothing.

And everything.

Confused? Good. Here’s what I mean…

Hypnosis is about change, right? Change in habits. Change in life. Change.

Okay, so I am watching these shows (they are very addictive) where the restaurant owner is hemorrhaging money by the thousands every week. Some will lose their homes very soon. And, in comes Ramsay to the rescue.

It’s a reality TV show, so I really don’t know if they pay him to come to their restaurant, but he shows up to save the day.

First, he eats a full meal from the menu. Usually, it’s awful. He observes the staff, the patrons (if any) and how the place looks. He’ll check out the kitchen and the staff and then comes back the next day.

Then, the fun happens! He basically rips their heads off (with the F-word almost every 5 seconds!) and shows them the filth in the kitchen, how badly the meal was prepared, how some of the food in storage is poisonous, how the wait staff and management was inept and on and on and on.

The funny thing is that Ramsay, who owns many, MANY successful restaurants and pubs all over the world and is a world-class chef, does know what he’s talking about.

But, do they listen with rapt attention waiting to scrap their beloved menu, decor and such? Ha. Nope. They fight him tooth and nail.

Now, you would think that if you were about to lose your house and business that you would probably listen to this bloke, right? I mean… RIGHT?

But fights break out and words are shouted… it’s a real hoot to watch!

Anyway, so what has this got to do with hypnosis?

These people HATE CHANGE. They just hate it!

And, so will many of your clients and people you hypnotize. Even though they are hugely overweight or smoking 3 packs of cigarettes a day… well, they think they know better.

And they will fight you tooth and nail.

So, like Ramsay, you need to stay your ground. If you let them placate you — and they WILL! — you’ll get no change at all. Watch the show; you’ll never see Gordon Ramsay accept anyone placating him! He’ll leave the place the way it is, sinking into deep $%*@, before he let’s them have their way with things.

Make sure your hypnosis subjects or clients stay the course with any program they are on. If they keep doing what they’ve done in the past, they’ll just keep getting the same results.

You may even see this occasionally on the show. In the final few minutes of the show, he revisits the restaurant he “fixed”. Many are doing amazingly well. Some have exceeded his expectations, too!

Some are still struggling because they didn’t do the program he set out for them.

Some are gone and out of business.

Isn’t this an amazing metaphor for your weight loss (or other) clients? Do you see it now?
