Generative Trance
4 days with the trance master Stephen Gilligan
Albert Einstein once said that we cannot solve problems at the same level from which they were created. This workshop will show you how to create higher states of consciousness that can be used to transform problem states, achieve important goals, and discover new levels of consciousness. It is based on the premise that the quality of your experience and responses to challenges are a direct function of the quality of your mindbody state, and that you can learn to significantly improve this state, especially under stressful conditions. Thus, one part of the workshop will focus on multiple creative ways to develop a generative trance state, and the second part will focus on how to do exceptional work (and play!) in this state. You will leave with an increased capacity for happiness, health, helping others, and healing your self and the world.
Some specific material to be covered includes:
- integration of Ericksonian hypnosis with Dr. Gilligan’s “Generative Self” model
- how to set clear, positive, succinct, and resonant intentions;
- how to settle down and settle in to a connection with your creative unconscious;
- how to develop generative trance via skills of increased relaxation, concentration, expanded awareness, and capacity to utilize whatever is there;
- how to bring the problem/goal into the generative trance, add other resources, express in multiple forms, and integrate into generative new patterns;
- how to ensure the new patterns are integrated into real life situations;
- replacing “negative trances” (traumas, addictions, disordered mood) with generative trances;
- multiple methods for generating desired states beyond what you’ve ever experienced or imagined;
The workshop is very practical, theoretically clear, and deeply experiential. Dr. Gilligan has been teaching this work for over 30 years, and he is magical and in his capacity to entrance, inspire, and help students create amazing new realities.
