Ebook: Remember Milton?

Remember Milton H. Erickson?

“Milton Hyland Erickson (5 December 1901 – 25 March 1980) was an American psychiatrist and psychologist specializing in medical hypnosis and family therapy.”
~Wikipedia

“Mind-body medicine is real and a powerful addition to the therapist’s toolbox. How about the
doctor’s toolbox too and that in the hindsight of COVID-19?”

“Once a year on the 4th of July David would do a seemingly simple, but deceptively simple,
psychological process called “Dialogue with the Virus.” He would imagine (or visualize) taking his
HIV/AIDS virus out of his body and giving it a shape and a name. He would then have a casual but
honest chat to it for a few minutes and then thank it for its time before returning it to his body. This
was among many techniques that he used to take proactive steps to increase his chances of not only
surviving AIDS, but also thriving and living a fulfilling life. We can all take a leaf out of his book in
memoriam.”

The books and training materials included here – now in the Public Domain thanks to Neil’s thoughtful, kind and ultimately crucial, choice – cover psychoneuroimmunology or PNI, hypnotherapy and Reiki. Thanks to some ground-breaking research from Jonathan the subjects are actually:

“one all-encompassing love of knowledge under the unwitting umbrella of psychotherapy (sex therapy too?) – a passion of mine [his] that continues to this day.”

Jonathan provides the remarkable backdrop in which these “educational” tools and materials were written and eventually found a “voice” through the publication of “Remember Milton?” from Libra Balances The Books – on the 25th Anniversary of his introduction to the subject through his one time partner, and friend of David and Neil – Geraldene.

Sadly David and Geraldene are no longer with us. May this collection be in their memory with a prayer, love and light for all sentient beings, everywhere.
