In this episode of Peace Lab Conversation, I spoke to Dave Berman, an original New Yorker who has since left the Big Apple, travelling around the world and have been staying in Melbourne Australia since January 2020. Graduated from one of the Ivy League - the Cornell University, Dave spent his first 10 years career in radio DJ (I keep picturing Dave as Dr Frasier Crane in another dimension), then the next 10 years as a businessman in California. However, since 2011, led by the beautiful dance of life Dave has been working as a coaching expert and hypnotherapist, whereby he bridges these with intentional laughter as a useful tool to help his clients find peace, acceptable and innate joy. This led to a nearly 3.5 year daily video series, world travel, countless in-person and online laughter sessions, and many training programs, classes, webinars and the creation of a new technique called "Laughnosis" (Laughter + Hypnosis). When I learned about that Dave has been in Melbourne since January 2020, I was curious how 2020 has been for him. I thought it must be tough for him to stay alone in a foreign country. Although initially challenging, Dave has turned 2020 to be one of his most fertile years of creativity and creation! Not only that he has finished his latest book - "Laughter Lost and Found", also in 2020 he created "Laughter Gym" and was laughing daily with others online as a way to let go of our daily stresses of 2020. This then has paved the foundation of his new programme - The Principles of Laughter. As Dave explained to me, once we let go of the illusion that we humans can predict the future, we become truly free, as we can finally accept the very nature of our existence is uncertain, is unknown and is constantly changing. So, I hope you will enjoy this 2021's first conversation. For me, after my own monologue of calling 2021 as "the Year of Not So Planning", the conversation with Dave just solidified my willingness to experiment more with surrendering, letting go and just flowing!

Dave currently facilitates the Principles of Laughter membership program and recently founded the Inner Light Discovery Center: https://davebermancoaching.com/join. While living in Saigon in 2018, Dave wrote a short book called 5 Ways Laughter Will Change Your Life - https://davebermancoaching.com/5ways. Dave's first book, the 2015 collaboration with Kelley T. Woods called Laughter For the Health of It - https://davebermancoaching.com/health. Dave's newest book "Laughter Lost and Found" - https://DaveBermanCoaching.com/found.

He is an expert in Neuro-Linguistic Programming and hypnosis training through NLP Comprehensive. Duff is a sought-after speaker and trainer, appearing at events such as the ICBCH Winter Hypnosis Conference, American Clinical Hypnotist Examiners, and HypnoThoughts Live. “There are very effective ways to become more resilient and transform our stress response when it’s not useful.” - Duff McDuffee Duff's first experiences of putting the body to sleep with self-hypnosis The Philosophy of Mind and why we have cognition How Duff's Rapid Centering Technique transforms feelings and positively reuses this energy When to use 'why' questions and 'how' questions with your clients Preparing for the reaction to stress and how to address it Duff's approach to setting up a client session Effective ways to become more resilient to stress The complete Rapid Centering Technique Duff's upcoming talk on the programming aspect of NLP How to become more resilient to your stress The “Rapid Centering Technique” Transcript: Start with a feeling in the body. Well, actually, you start with a scenario. So, let's say someone feels anxious in a social situation. So they say, "Great, think about that social situation and step back into it and see what you see, hear what you hear and feel that you feel when you're back there now. So, what feeling do you feel?" And they'll say, "Oh, anxiety." Or whatever the feeling is. "And where do you feel that feeling in your body?" And you shut up and you let them answer and they say, you know, "In my chest and throat." "Okay, great. And how big is it? How far does it extend in the chest and throat? Is it, you know, like a narrow tube or does it take up your whole chest?" And they tell you and then you say, "And what color is it?" You know, from up until then you've been asking sort of things that seem like they're kinesthetic. But actually, when you look back, all those things could have been visual as well. The location, the size, the shape and so on. The color, the color is absolutely visual. So, some people would be like, "Huh, what do you mean color?" "If it had a color, what would it be?" That sort of classic question. And they tell you. Then you do a very simple visualization. "Imagine in front of you is a full-length mirror. You can see yourself in that mirror, you can see your hair, color of hair, your face, you can see your shirt, the color of your shirt and if you look down towards your belly button, below your belly button about two inches, and inside your body, at the very center of your body, you can see a tiny little dot like the size of a grain of sand, no bigger than a grain of sand in fact. And you can also see that let's say red, circular shape in your chest over there in the mirror representing the anxiety. Now, in a moment on the count of three, what I want you to do is imagine in and see in the mirror that red, circular shape shrinking and getting smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller until it fits inside that tiny little dot in the center of your body over there as if there's a powerful magnet or a black hole sucking it up. On the count of three, one, two, and three. See it happening in the mirror now. All of that energy shrinking down smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller until it's sucked into that tiny little dot in the center of your being and is absorbed within it now." And then you wait to see their face to see if they're processing or if it's happened, and you say, "Great, now that it's all in your belly because it's in your belly, you can digest fully all that energy, eliminating any of it that you no longer need. Sending it back and fully digesting the rest, just like you digest carbohydrates into glucose, digest fats into lipids. You break down proteins into amino acids. You can break down that energy into pure energy and allow it to circulate throughout your body wherever it's needed. Trusting the wisdom of your unconscious mind to do that in the right time, in the right place." Resources Mentioned: ICBCH & HPTI Winter Hypnosis Convention Kelley T.
