"I'm looking forward to implementing it."

Ever since my first medical school years, I was curious about hypnosis. Had the chance to experience it once with a psychiatry teacher. Then went through my training to become an anesthesiologist. Heard that surgery, and dentistry could be done under hypnosis; was intrigued. Had the opportunity to experience self-hypnosis during my second child's delivery; although pain ultimately got my epidural, self-hypnosis was helpful to cope with 3/4 of the event. Hesitated for many years to learn hypnosis, as I thought people around me would not be open to this option at work. Found out about MV hypnotherapy training, and decided to dive in, at least for my own interest and self-development. Then got in touch with other anesthesiologists interested in peri-operative hypnosis. Found out a training event was about to be given near my location! They accepted to take me in on the basis of the training I was already doing with MV! Peri operative training is now done and I'm looking forward to implementing it. The best part is, turned out that people around me at work are rather curious and open to this alternative!
