My Voice Will Go With You: The Teaching Tales of Milton H Erickson

S Rosen

Peter Cook Reviews
My Voice Will Go With You: The Teaching Tales of Milton H Erickson Closely associated to Milton H. Erickson was his use of "Teaching Tales". Erickson's intent was to influence a patient on conscious and unconscious levels. Calling upon shock, surprise, confusion - with generous use of questions, puns, and playful humour - he seeded suggestions indirectly and positively. Originally Erickson had agreed to co-author this book of teaching tales but he did not live to see the project beyond the planning stage. Sidney Rosen has collected over one hundred of the tales, many never previously transcribed. Presented verbatim and accompanied by Dr. Rosen's interpretation and commentary they are grouped under such headings as "Motivating Tales", "Reframing", etc. The thought broadening messages in these teaching tales speak to all readers. Peter Cook Reviews this book: This is a meticulous insight into the work of Milton Erickson covering actual case studies on how Erickson worked. An essential read for anyone working in hypnotherapy, psychotherapy or just working with language to bring about dramatic changes either personally or for others. Erickson worked extensively with just language and much of his skill in this area is recorded here. Milton even had a snappy answer to a student who expressed concern that he was dying. He remarked, ‘I have no intention of dying. In fact that will be the last thing I do!’
