Sounds True with Tami Simon – Insights at the Edge

David Spiegel: Self-Hypnosis for Well-Being (58:59)

https://resources.soundstrue.com/podcast/david-spiegel-self-hypnosis-for-well-being/

The practice of hypnosis is considered by many people within and outside of the medical profession to be useless, dangerous, or both. Yet studies are showing how hypnosis offers us a reliable, remarkably powerful therapeutic tool for managing pain and stress, changing unwanted habits, improving sleep, and overcoming a broad range of health challenges.



In this podcast, Tami Simon speaks with author and psychiatrist Dr. David Spiegel to separate the facts from the fiction, exploring: hypnosis as a naturally occurring state of highly focused attention; letting go of our usual preconceptions about ourselves; cognitive flexibility (not “suggestibility”); Dionysians, Apollonians, and Odysseans—three categories of hypnotizability; the Spiegel eye-roll technique; a guided experience of self-hypnosis for stress and anxiety; hypnosis vs. meditation; respecting and protecting your body; focusing on what you’re for instead of what you’re against; and a case example using self-hypnosis to heal trauma and dissociation (please note: this example occurs at 39:10–41:03 and includes a reference to sexual assault).



Note: This episode originally aired on Sounds True One, where these special episodes of Insights at the Edge are available to watch live on video and with exclusive access to Q&As with our guests. Learn more at join.soundstrue.com.

Caroline Casey Visionary Activist “Dream News”

Dream News! Tis a description and an exhortation (and title of just now and more soon council)



Caroline hosts Tom Cheetham, “a rogue scholar of the imagination in esoteric Islam interweaving the planes of the real into his continuous and wonderfully whacked-out song.” – Joseph Donahue, author of (many books, including) “Imaginal Love – The meanings of Imagination in Henry Corbin and James Hillman”



Ancestor Ally Mentors, the likes of Hillman, Henri Corbin, and Jung excavated and crafted keys which they are now handing to us. So let’s put the keys in the locks, and tease erudition into pertinent practice, the world being on fire, and all..



Tom :”There is an open field of reality accessible to us through the imagination.”



Wonder, Curiosity, and Willingness partner with Imagination to open portals of participatory cahooting between worlds…. Because we humans cannot resolve any of the innumerable cruel conundrums we have imposed on our kin – by ourselves. Tis by ourselves that got us it into this pickle.



Participatory Animism, Biomimicry, Mutual Aid – the way to go….
