And thank you Linda, always good hearing from you.

I recall a day when I sat and looked at my bookcase and it was filled with books that I had not opened more than once and many that I had not ever even opened. They were just really well marketed to me and I fell for it. On courses, people would tell me of a great book they bought, and tutors would peddle their own books and very few would actually prove to be much use for any lengthy period of time.

Have you ever seen the cartoon of the cave men sales people? There is a caveman selling a square wheel, very well marketed surrounded by a HUGE crowd of interested people. The caveman selling the round wheel, poorly marketed, was stood by himself. It illustrates an issue with this and related fields I think.

Happy new year to you 🙂

Best wishes, Adam.

I have rows of bad buys from the days when I first began training. (They are now on the very bottom shelf and easy to ignore). Even during my practitioner and advanced diploma training I was not enlightened with good reading material. Only when I started the BSc course did I learn to read scholarly- and that I taught myself. I would like to see the profession develop academically and scientifically and have great faith that you lead this endeavour! The good thing is that you train fully developed and well grounded hypnotherapists who are not scared by the scientific and academic understanding- so that they will be inspired to think and research for themselves.
