Another case of cancer.

Another case of cancer. Was a call from the colleague, who said: "I am in Good Samaritan Hospital is a patient. She was 52 years, Doctor, brain, and is read with a wonderful sense of humor. But to live it to have less than three months, she suffered from persistent pain. I enter it a double dose of morphine, and demerola perkodana simultaneously, plus nine facets Amitav sodium. But she could not even doze off, so it hurts more. She is able to sit in a wheelchair, but the ambulance could bring it to you. The driver rolled up her right in your office. Look, can we do something for her with the help of hypnosis? "

The driver vkatil it through the door directly in my office. (Erickson shows at the side door of the cabinet.) Deliver it, then, in this very room. I was then already 70 years old, and hair in the same color as now. I am in the tail is already about 15 years go. She looked at me and said: "Son, neuzhto you really believe that your words will act zagovornye on my body is stronger than the strong chemicals, which are the body, incidentally, does not react?"

"Madam, - I said - I see that as a growing and shrinking pupils of your eyes, and tremble as the muscles of the face. It is clear to me that you suffer from constant pain - the infinite, fulgurating, pulsating pain. I see it with your own eyes. Now tell me, madam, what power would you have felt the pain, if the next room suddenly appeared to lean, and hungry tiger, licking, stared at you with burning eyes from hunger? "

"With such a turnover of cases, I would not manage to feel. Oh, my God! I do not feel any pain! Let me took this with a tiger in the hospital? "" No problem, I just preventing your physician "- I answered. "Nurses do not talk - she asked - and I wish them fun. As soon as they are asking, not a pain I have something, I respond: "But Come on, look under the bed. If a tiger there, it's all right. "

If a woman of fifty two years, calls me "son", she really has a sense of humor. Here's what I use.

In other words, use all that is in the patient. If the patient is earned, due and you. If it follows the Mormon religion, and you do not, you still should know enough about the Mormons that the treatment to rely on their religion. I remember Jim idealist and the same idealistku Gracie. I am a stranger to them people, instantly seized their attention, once tried to open slightly in bra girls. Afford such a high idealistic - Top impropriety. (Erickson laughs.)

Cristina: You said that Gracie gave specific instructions about what to talk Jim into trance. Can you explain more in detail?

Eriksson: I am told it literally Learn to remember anything I said about the alarm clock. Wake up, switch off the alarm clock, doing different jobs and do what should be done that day. If you are Catholic, but meatless day, eat fish. So it should be. And since Jim built the house and helped handle his plot for him it was a holy thing.

Participant: It is susceptible to the effects of spastic paralysis in the state? E-m-m, you are influenced by Jim spastic pain through hypnosis?

Erickson: Yes, I did not tell about it. There were Jim strongest spasms, but they disappeared as soon as I touched pointer to the chest of his wife. It is nothing less than glued to my eyes, so much happened to his cramps. (Erickson chuckle.) I have nothing against such a loss, and it, too.

Another slushatelnitsa: What do you think, how cancer patients can manage the development of disease in his body?

Erickson: There are no sufficient experimental data. I can only tell that my lectures in Twin Falls in Idaho, attended the leading surgeon of the local, K. Fred very progressive-minded specialist. He decided that, in Twin Falls to be a medical society, and created it. Then Fred decided that the city needed the municipal hospital, and launched the company for its construction. He then insisted that the buildings constructed in compliance with all health standards. Fred - the ringleader in his Twin Falls.

After the lecture, Fred came up to me and said: "Having listened to your lecture, I realized that humanity is much calmer consideration to tottery of old age psychiatrist than to shake with dilapidation surgeon." The practice of psychiatry, Fred was in Salt Lake City. He is currently Professor of Psychiatry.

Fred did not agree to accept the title of professor until he was not allowed to work in the surgical department. Now, every other patient he had operated his dolechivaet with the help of hypnosis. In these patients the healing process is faster than other patients. That's all I can tell you.

Jane: Dr. Erickson, I have Raynaud's disease. I can hypnosis help?

Erickson: Smoking quit?

Jane: Yes. I do not smoke.

Erickson: Well. In 1930, I saw with Dr. Frank C. It was also Raynaud's disease. But he was not throwing smoke. Liked to take with смаком. Once he decided to ask me about his illness. "You do not get rid of it - I said. (Erickson looks at Jane.) - You do not move in a cold climate. " He offered to head a major hospital in August, in the state of Maine. Frank said that he would like to get this job. "If so, that's what I tell you: as soon as you feel that you poholodeli fingers, try to imagine ignite spark in the very tip of little finger." Now Frank will be more years than me, but he has continued from time to time to plant tiny fires in the finger tips. The disease he was no longer progressing.

Jane: And I, on the contrary, holodeyut fingers on the legs.

Erickson: From time to time, mentally incited lights.

Jane: And now?

Erickson: Well, if you are able now to think the same thing that I see, you pokrasneesh. (Laughter) You know that you can manage individual capillaries?

Jane nods.

Erickson: A capillaries hand? You have previously happened to them goose skin? (Jane looks at his hands.) Where to go from heat to cold, the hands and all over the body, you may receive the goose skin. Incur, such as in a bath with hot water too, and legs are covered goose skin with you because this happened? This is because it occurs a sharp outflow of blood from the receptors to heat the cold receptors.

Now you can blush not only face, but his feet. (Erickson chuckle.) A fire at the person you have already learned. (Erickson laughs.) Thanks for the illustration. (All laugh.)

Jane: Just here is hot. (Laughter)

Erickson: So. How deep should be trans during psychotherapy? You are not very much observation. Talking with you, I have repeatedly entered and left the trance. I learned how to enter the trance, at the same time to discuss with you any problems and at the same time to observe how this carpet is now rising above the floor. (Erickson shows the distance at hand.) This is a small mat. I can tell you about Jim and Gracie (Erickson looks at the carpet), about a hungry tiger, etc., but you are correct, notice that I start to speak slower. (Eriksson is smiling and look around.) Behind you, I can log in and out of trance.
