8 Ways to Treat Bedwetting with Ericksonian Hypnosis

VIDEO: Stephen Brooks teaches how Milton Erickson treated Bedwetting (Enuresis) with Ericksonian hypnotherapy and tasking (with case studies)   1. Traditional therapy for treating bedwetting (enuresis) Milton Erickson rarely treated problems the traditional way. Instead he used new and innovative techniques such as tasking, metaphor and indirect suggestion. But as a benchmark, here are a number of ways therapists tradtionally treat enuresis, commonly known as bedwetting: Motivational therapy: This type of therapy focuses on helping the child feel in control of their bladder and encourages them to take steps to stay dry. This can include keeping a record of dry nights, setting a bedtime routine, and rewarding the child for dry nights. Biofeedback: This type of therapy uses electronic devices to help the child learn how to control their pelvic floor muscles. This can help the child empty their bladder more completely and prevent accidents. Alarm therapy: This type of therapy uses an alarm to wake the child up when they start to wet the bed. This can help the child learn to associate the feeling of a full bladder with waking up and going to the bathroom.   2. Traditional hypnotic approaches to treating bedwetting Even when

12 Facts about Non-verbal Communication and Hypnosis

VIDEO: Stephen Brooks Teaches the Importance of Unconscious Nonverbal Communication in Ericksonian Hypnotherapy    1. Ideomotor Response Ideomotor response is a phenomenon in which a person's unconscious mind can be communicated with through the use of muscle movements. Ideomotor response is often used in hypnosis as a way to communicate with the unconscious mind and to access information that is not available to the conscious mind. To test for ideomotor response, the Ericksonian hypnotherapist will ask the client's unconscious mind to focus on a particular object or thought and then to indicate their response by moving a finger - often on either hand to indicate yes or no. If the client is able to move their finger unconsciously in response to the hypnotist's suggestions, then it is likely that they are experiencing ideomotor response. Extensive research has been dedicated to investigating the ideomotor response phenomenon, a fascinating concept that has captured the attention of professionals across various fields, including psychology and hypnosis. This intriguing phenomenon establishes a connection between one's thoughts or mental imagery and physical responses, such as muscle twitches or movements. Understanding the intricacies of ideomotor response can provide valuable insights into how
