Perhaps the oldest behavior of all life forms is foraging- the seeking and acquiring of resources. If you are curious about how Clinical Hypnosis holds up when looked at through the lens of contemporary neuroscience, then this talk is for you. We build up from foraging and look at 4 areas of research: State Change, Interoception, Exteroception, and Predictive Processing. This allows us to distinguish our professional practice from the mainstream of relational Psychology. Instead, I propose an ethical practice where the hypnotist acts as a guide for the client, with their permission, through the reawakening of foraging behaviors.
