Listen now to a teleseminar in which Cal Banyan explains 5-PATH®:
Our curriculum is designed to provide a complete approach to hypnosis which enables you to immediately become a practicing Hypnotherapist working with weight, smoking and stress problems for both individuals and groups. Upon completion of the Level I and Level II (5-PATH®) training, you will be able to help clients deal with fears and anxieties, self-confidence and esteem issues, sports performance, sales performance and most problems presented to Hypnotherapists.
In addition to learning the basics, you will learn the unique 5-PATH®. This is a thorough multiphase approach which was designed to uncover and overcome subconscious issues. In this system, you will utilize some of the most powerful hypnotherapeutic tools, including Direct Suggestion, Age Regression, Forgiveness Therapy and Parts Mediation Therapy, applied together in a systematic, reliable and highly effective process.
Special training and experience will be available using 7th Path Self-Hypnosis®, a series of self-hypnosis techniques designed to remove old blockages to success, before attempting to give yourself suggestions. This new approach has received highest praise from both students and clients. Note that 7th Path® is a holistic Mind-Body-Spirit approach that far surpasses classical approaches to self-hypnosis. For most students, this is one of the greatest benefits of taking the course!
