Kissing Frogs easily is one of the best books on the subject of hypnotherapy available on the market today! Chaplain Durbin's writing style is informative and easy to understand. This book covers the major issues which hypnotherapists frequently work with in a straight forward and practical way that includes real examples to aid in understanding. Before I was even half way finished with the book I found myself recommending it to several colleagues for their library. A must read for all practicing hypnotherapists and those learning hypnotherapy!
Paul Durbin is an experienced hypnotherapist and pastor. His book captures the key elements of hypnosis and presents a simple method for the reader to use hypnosis for his/her own personal growth. His love for people comes through and the techniques he teaches you will last you a lifetime. I heartily recommend this book! Kevin Hogan, Author of The Psychology of Persuasion and Tinnitus: Turning the Volume Down
Chaplain Durbin's book concisely bridges the gap between ignorance and proof of God's miracles. Read on page 88 where it is states when the catholic church issued statements approving of the use of hypnosis. Additionally, on page 199 one can read about how a doctor was assisted by Chaplain Durbin to halt bleeding that could not be stopped. As an experienced hypnotist I found this book to provide excellent information. This book can be used by anyone who desires change in their life.
This book was recommended to me, and now, I recommend it to YOU. If anyone wants an objective approach and exhaustive resource to/for hypnotherapy - Here it is! Dr. Durbin is a wordsmith as he deliberates on this pertinent subject matter. Cast your preconceptions away and allow yourself insight into a subject too often layered with misconceptions. Dutifully and honestly, Dr. Durbin strips away the misinformation and escorts the reader into a face-to-face understanding of hypnotherapy, his obvious labor of love . . . and mine too. Thank you, Dr. Durbin.
I highly recommend this book for anyone engaged in the professional practice of hypnotherapy, whether as a full-time profession or as an adjunct to a counseling practice. I also recommend this to anyone of the cloth, as Dr. Durbin has successfully blended hypnotherapy with pastoral counseling. Additionally, the author's background as a minister should encourage any Christian having conflicts about whether to consider either experiencing hypnotherapy or learning the art as a part of his/her profession. The fact that I teach hypnosis in a college should add credibility to my recommendation of Dr. Durbin's fine work.
I thoroughly enjoyed Dr. Durbin's book and highly recommend it to others. I especially enjoyed his many illustrations, stories and metaphors. I am a certified hypnotherapist and the information found in this book is very useful to me. I look forward to any other books he may write in the future
Paul Durbin breaks down potenitally "intimidating" material into bits that were easily swallowed. His use of story and metaphor enable and empower the reader to truly apprehend his position. His visions are fresh and "real!" Thank you, Dr. Durbin.
