[Audio] IC11 Short Course 30 – Soothing Slumber: Tucking the Day’s Pain Away – Deborah Beckman

Description:

Clients in pain yearn for sleep; comfort just out of reach. Focus first on establishing soothing sleep and encouraging nocturnal restorative functions. Treating remaining pain stays in the day’s domain. Hypno-sis enlists the mind and body’s natural processes, restoring healthy sleep. Strategic protocols combine physiology of sleep and pain management with the client’s own experience. These are further reinforced by self-hypnosis techniques. Program includes demonstration, application of trance script protocols, and case study discussion.

Educational Objectives:

1. List the strategic criteria for applying the soothing sleep protocols with distressed clients.
2. Describe how to individualize the provided trance script protocols to address several combinations of disturbed sleep and pain.
