  • Could there be more? Yes there is!

A Life of Stress - Hypnotherapy DVD Following the loss of her mother, Kathy found herself in a position of being co-head of household. Her job, her family, and various inner conflicts created a series of stress-inducers that she found difficult to manage. Through a series of both direct and indirect hypnotic and therapeutic methods, Kathy's model of the world is altered. She transcends her former negative barriers and creates new strategies for effective living. Techniques utilized include: NLP, Ericksonian Methods, Connection of Feelings and Word Association. This video serves as an excellent example of rapport and trust building with a teenager.
DVD - 1hr 25min

Note: The techniques included can be used in virtually any type of hypnotherapeutic intervention.

Past Life Therapy DVD Denise felt out-of-control. Her anger towards men was increasing and she didn't know why. She discovers that her low self-esteem, poor self-image and anger stem from the abuse she suffered from her mother and from lovers in her past lives. She further realizes that the abuse in her present relationship is by the "negative" soul mate she kept encountering in her previous lives. Through hypnotherapeutic insights and procedures, she finally opens the door to opportunity for change and takes a major step towards positive growth. Techniques utilized include: Connection of Feelings, Rapid Word Association, Hypnotic Dialogue, Past Life Regression, and Strong Programming based on her belief system.

  • We’re on a roll, so why stop now?
You will need confidence to get up in front of a room of people and do hypnosis demonstrations. So you also get two of George’s confidence-building CDs—“Unshakable Confidence for the Hypnotherapist” and “Unshakable Confidence for the Hypnosis Presenter!” Regular listening to these programs will help you turn nervousness into passion and excitement! And to help you enroll students into your seminars, you also get George Bien's Maximum Sales Persuasion CD.
Confidence for the Hypnotherapist CD This is the CD that hypnotherapists everywhere are talking about. It is the definitive programming for any practitioner who wants to gain total confidence when working with clients, and has been called “the best program of its kind,” It is parahermispherically designed to be processed by both sides of the brain and uses the unique “enveloped saturation process” which helps bypass any conscious pre-filtering to directly access the human change mechanism. It utilizes an underlying sound matrix of binaural beats, digitally processed linear enhancement, reversed speech, and precise multilevel preconscious programming specifically scripted for enhanced absorption.
CD - 24 min
Confidence for the Hypnosis Presenter CD The powerful "Acceleration" CD is an updated and enhanced version of the same hypnosis tape that George created for himself that helped catapult him to who many call "the Most Powerful Communicator in the field of Hypnosis!" Designed for total preconscious saturation, the metaphoric journey in the left ear and simultaneous programming in the right ear, build to a climactic, multi-level overload. This is experienced over an underlying sound matrix of a running brook, binaural sound modulation, and digitally processed "reversed speech."
CD - 22 min
Maximum Sales Persuasion CD This CD is designed to help you create a meeting of the minds on the emotional level and will help enhance your ability to reflect from the other person's perspective. The transference of enthusiasm from you to your prospective students will be filled with compassion, camaraderie and mutual understanding. Like the CD above, it also uses the unique enveloped saturation process, reversed speech, with precise multilevel preconscious programming. The specifically designed script is digitally processed over an underlying sound matrix of binaural beats, to help bypass any conscious pre-filtering and create enhanced absorption.
CD - 20 min

The training was dynamic energy, providing an exceptional amount of information and instruction, well-packed and decisive.  Not only is the quality and content of instruction exceptional, the class interaction and participation was on-going and energizing.

Furthermore, Dr. Bien’s commitment to and passion for the profession and the students is immersed in caring, ethics and integrity.  I have been in the field of hypnotherapy for the past 12 years, and I am satisfied that I received the ultimate in quality education in my profession.”

“I came to this seminar without any expectations at all.  This was because I have always been disappointed with various training programs if I attended them with expectations.  This was however NOT the case with this Train-the-Trainer program, organized under the auspices of IACT, and taught by George Bien.

George came across as a very passionate trainer with full panoply of knowledge within the rubrics of hypnosis and hypnotherapy.  He demonstrated a very keen and heightened sense of responsibility as a paternal instructor.  He responded very well to his students in breath and depth of what he teaches, never patronizing participants at all.

We are leaving the class fully energized and empowered to be Certified Instructors, with the full range of skills imparted by George Bien.

Accruing from the knowledge learned, I fully recommend this training for hypnosis instructors to-be.”

I am profoundly impressed by Dr. George Bien’s sincerity, warmth and his passionate dedication to imparting his enormous hypnotic knowledge and training skills to his students.  George will journey with you, leading you gently, yet passionately stretching you towards excellence.  He will not only be your teacher – you will also gain a true friend as well.
