Strategic Psychotherapy for Weight Control by Dr. Milton Erickson

Visit Erickson-Foundation.org/EricksonVideo to learn more.
This is part one in a series of videos of Milton H. Erickson, MD, from the 1970s when he was conducting teaching seminars. Students from around the world came for an opportunity to be with Erickson at these teaching seminars, and The Erickson Foundation is fortunate to have many hours of video featuring these sessions. These videos of Erickson were not made with professional equipment, but they give insight into the type of teaching that Erickson did when students came to him to learn about hypnosis and psychotherapy.
The cases in this first video are about strategic psychotherapy. Erickson had two parts - a hypnotic part and a strategic part. The hypnotic part would use formal hypnosis. The strategic part was hypnotherapy without trance. To know Erickson is to know both parts.
In this short excerpt, you’ll see two cases of strategic psychotherapy, both concerning weight control.

he was not only a genius, but he was so undisturbed in his emotional state, mybe thats why he pointed out, to never let anybody hurt our feelings. Because in the end of the day, our emotions form our actions.

Though the Erickson Congresses sadly have been brought to a close, these videos will help keep his work alive in perpetuity. Thank you Jeff for all you have done to bring Dr Erickson's work to the world.

Dr. Erickson remains the gold standard of hypnotherapy. I would add a third part to the hypnosis and psychotherapy parts. I would add the MD part. He knew about the human body and what the parameters of therapy were. Three for the price of one.

I'm an Ericson stumbling on this information for the first time and it's resonates deeply with me. Does his research include the love link? Loving your body no matter what. You are unfindable love controlling this body, but have forgotten. Remember you are love and show your body love.

This is absolutely brilliant. Some years ago, before I ever heard of Dr Erickson, I tried doing something when I was trying to keep kosher (violations on Purim and my birthday) with planned violations. It worked beautifully. I never thought of doing the same with more general weight loss! I may try this once quarantine is over!
