The keys rediscovered
Dr. Paret has gathered the most powerful hypnosis techniques in existence. In Europe he gained access to the most secret traditions of instant hypnotic fascination through the gaze. In America he learned rapid and verbal hypnosis from Ormond McGill, Gil Boyne and others. On the non-verbal side he had unique teachers. A passionate collector, he has also assembled the world's largest collection of original sources from every era on fascination and animal magnetism, including Le Magnétisme, the journal of the great fascinator Donato. With this knowledge he has recovered techniques that modern hypnosis had forgotten and made them teachable, testable and effective today. Modern scientific neurology, and polyvagal theory in particular, explains why they work.
Applied neuroscience
Dr. Paret was among the first to spread NLP3 and neurocoaching, which broaden NLP and go beyond it by giving the non-verbal priority over the verbal. With applications in business, coaching and relationships, and in the pre-hypnotic dialogue.
The principles of non-verbal communication that Dr. Paret teaches in hypnosis also apply to coaching and to every field where the relationship matters: sales, leadership, negotiation, communication within companies.
As a consultant, Dr. Paret has worked with leading companies, including Ferrari, bringing the reading of non-verbal signals and the management of relationships into organisations.
The lineage: Dr. Paret's masters
Hypnotic fascination has always been handed down from master to student. Dr. Paret received this tradition from several masters, and today he passes it on in turn.
- Virgilio T.: hypnosis master, the last to know the secrets of hypnotic fascination. Dr. Paret continues his lineage and keeps his notes.
- Prof. Erminio Di Pisa: open-eyed hypnotic fascination, with instant results.
- Ormond McGill: the great American master of hypnosis, whom Dr. Paret met on several occasions.
- Gil Boyne: the rapid, verbal hypnosis of the American school.
Today Dr. Paret's students carry this transmission forward on five continents.
His master: Prof. Erminio Di Pisa
Among Dr. Paret's masters is Prof. Erminio Di Pisa, who used open-eyed hypnotic fascination with instant results. The videos show him at work, and Dr. Paret demonstrating his method.
How he teaches
In his courses you learn by doing: the gaze, rhythm, distance, the words that speak directly to the subconscious. You experience for yourself what it means to enter trance and to guide someone else into trance, always with respect for the person and within ethical limits.
