The Healing Metaphor: Hypnotherapy Scripts

This book took me on a journey into the delightful world of Metaphors. The author starts with an exploration of metaphors and similes we use in daily life e.g. swimming against the tide, as busy as a bee, she then progress to poetry ‘Poetry is a powerful medium which can talk to the soul’ and finally examples of hypnotherapy scripts. I believe that most talking therapist would find this book both thought provoking and useful. I did. For example using the metaphor of a lost TV control for those with anxiety or back seat driver for those with performance problems. I would have liked more on poetry but that might be another book yet to evolve.

I like this book a lot. It slips nicely into my bag when I am off to see a client and a great reference when I am working at home. It is easy to read. Also easy to personalise and pick out ideas. Small is Beautiful! Thank you.

I am a professional hypnotherapist with You Motivate and this book is one I turn to time and time again if I need some inspiration or Id like to add one of Zetta Thomelin's wonderful metaphors to my work. Id also say that even if your not a professional therapist the poetry and language in this book will be a delight. Truly heartwarming food for thought.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It has some really interesting scripts and has helped me to up my metaphor script witting game

The book covers a wide range of conditions and would be suitable for relaxation and hypnosis
