Clinical Clinical Hypnosis Certification Manual:  Training Curriculum of the American School of Hypnosis.  This clinical hypnosis certification manual will help you to learn everything in becoming a hypnotherapist.  It covers everything from beginning to advanced clinical hypnosis.  The knowledge in this manual will answer any questions on hypnosis you may have as well as make you a superior comedy hypnotist.

Live classroom video instruction on depth levels and depth scales:  If you've ever wanted to know what the key is to conducting a good comedy hypnosis show, it's no one when and where to place the order of your skits.  This classroom video attraction is vital to the beginner, the advocates.  He must know when the volunteers will be suggestible enough for what variety of skits.  This instruction will save you much time and hassle in the long run.

Instant and rapid induction video clips:  Even though many instant inductions are included within the manual, these videos will help you to see how they should be performed.

Video clips of suggestibility tests:  Hypnosis is all about suggestibility and imagination.  Once you understand and are comfortable with these two aspects, the sky is the limit.

Video clips of hypnosis skits in action:  In addition to these video clips being extremely helpful to show you how your skits should be performed such as the timing and overall performance, you will find these videos simply hysterical.

A set of 16 complete hypnosis sessions:  On many titles that will help you personally to become a better entertainer.  They include many topics for confidence, public speaking abilities, charisma, enhance sales ability, relaxation, developing a sense of humor, being the life of the party, attaining goals and more.  These sessions are designed for you as the prospective comedy hypnotist to be more confident, entertaining, and rounded in your performing abilities.  Each session lasts approximately one half hour. 

    Complete Show Magic Book.

     This is a simple magic book that I wrote for those people who may have an interest in magic but do not want to buy all the store props. It is a complete magic show that can be created from items that you may have at home already. 

     There are many magical illusions in this book that can help you to add a bit of magic layer to your performance if you desire.  I have also found them extremely helpful in conducting sessions with teenagers or even younger clients.  Everyone loves magic and performed properly can win over the audience immediately.
