I was wrong about hypnosis

I am joined here by Stanford psychiatrist Dr David Spiegel to talk about hypnosis and self hypnosis. Now before you switch off and think 'ugh that's a load of poppycock' - I was and always have been cynical about this too but David is very much from the science and research school of thought and he utterly dispels my distrust of hypnosis here, educating me and hopefully you too on what an effective, scientifically backed intervention it can be to help us through anxiety, especially when it comes to things like phobias. I loved talking to him, and I hope you find it interesting too. And helpful! I'll be back in the new year but in the mean time please do hop over to my substack and subscribe for more content.
