Sammy the Elephant and Mr. Camel is a delightful bedtime story that your child can appreciate on two levels.
On the first level, your child will be delighted with the story of Sammy, a lovable little elephant who keeps spilling his buckets of water, while on an unconscious level he or she is being given a comprehensive healing metaphor that can help him or her overcome the problem of bedwetting, while also enhancing personal self-esteem.
This story is told by Joyce Mills, Ph.D., a world-renowned expert on the use of Ericksonian hypnotherapy for children's issues. Your child will love Dr. Mills' engaging style, and you will love the bonus hypnosis session that she made especially for parents. Every parent needs a "mini mind vacation"!
As many as one in three children sleepwet at age six, and approximately 2-10% of teenagers experience occasional sleepwetting. Recent studies suggest that if left unresolved, the problem may actually become more severe for some teenagers and adults.
Although this story was originally developed to help children with bedwetting (primary or secondary enuresis), parents have found even greater benefit in how it affects their children overall. Below are some skills that your child may develop from listening to this story regularly:
Experience the Joy of Living
"Joyce Mills speaks straight from the heart to your heart. Joyce is a magical spellbinder who touches young and old in ways that help us experience the joy of living."
- Carl A. Hammerschlag, M.D
We recommend this story to any parent who believes in the power of story.
From 1-2 Times Per Night to 9 Straight Dry Nights
"My daughter is an 8-year-old with primary enuresis. We have tried letting her outgrow her bedwetting with no success. We purchased a bedwetting alarm and this CD and started using them at the same time. The first week she was wetting her bed 1-2 times a night. By week three, she also had 3 dry nights, 2 nights of wetting once, and one night of wetting twice. The fourth week she had 4 dry nights and 3 nights with one wetting. The fifth week was 7 dry nights (a total of 9 straight dry nights)! The sixth week, which is not finished yet, has been 6 dry nights. This behavior change is from the hypnosis CD. The alarm is supposed to train them to learn to wake up when they feel their bladder is full, where the CD seems to train their brain to use their muscles to hold their urine until morning."

Enhanced Esteem and Sense of Empowerment
"To the untrained listener, the children's CD is just like any other bedtime story one might tell a child, but, those schooled in Ericksonian trancework will quickly come to appreciate how masterfully Dr. Mills weaves classical Ericksonian techniques into the story to accomplish an unconscious parallel retrieval of resources that would result in an enhanced esteem and sense of empowerment in the listener."
- Kathleen Donaghy Ph.D. - Phoenix, AZ - The Milton H. Erickson Foundation Newsletter, Summer 2006

Do not listen to any sessions while driving or while engaged in any activity that requires your attention.
The Hypnosis Network takes great pride in our programs. Please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions.
Hypnosis Network CD programs are very powerful, but are NOT a substitute for therapy. As with any self-help modality, you may not achieve the desired result.
Can I be hypnotized? What if I'm "resistant"?
People of average intelligence (unless there is some form of organic brain damage) can be hypnotized in most cases if they are willing and do not resist.
The depth of hypnosis varies with a person's ability to respond. If you are not a naturally responsive subject, you can improve your receptivity to hypnosis with practice.
If you are totally resistant to the intent of the program you are considering, then it's not for you. You can't use hypnosis if you don't want to, because no one can hypnotize you against your will.
How should I use this program for maximum effectiveness?
A comfortable chair is the best place to listen, although a couch will also work. If you are listening to these in bed, for the first cycle it will be best if you do not go into a deep sleep unless so stated by the hypnosis session itself. After the first cycle, you may use the sessions before bedtime (they make great sleep aids). Do not try to listen at your computer - experience shows that it won't work.
These sessions work best when you are undisturbed and comfortable. Please make sure your phone ringer is off and that you will not be disturbed for a 25-minute period. Headphones are OK, but are not necessary.
Listen to only one session a day - the introduction does not count as a session. The sessions are incremental and should be listened to in the order presented on the CDs. We do recommend that you repeat each session at least four times before moving on to the next session. You will find that the programs will be the most effective if you listen at least 5 days a week for a minimum of three weeks . . . changing behavior is not going to happen overnight.
Once you have listened to all the sessions in order, we suggest that you go back and re-listen to the sessions that you find most relevant. The listening order can now be mixed.
If you have multiple programs from The Hypnosis Network, please complete each program separately and completely before moving on to another one.
How do I know if it is working? How will I know if I am actually hypnotized while listening to the sessions?
The experience of hypnosis is different for everyone. For many people, hypnosis is much like reading a good book. You are absorbed, but are still aware of your environment and your internal dialogue.
The depth of the trance has no effect on your results. The best way to notice if the hypnosis is working is to notice your decisions during the day surrounding food and exercise. Gradually, it will be easier and easier to make the right decisions.
Can I listen while sleeping?
It is not a good idea to listen to the hypnosis sessions while lying down to go to bed. If you fall asleep, the sessions will not be effective. A great time to listen is in the morning when you wake up, or in the evening when you get home from work.
Will the program work if I fall asleep while I'm listening?
Probably not, but sometimes hypnosis is confused with sleep. If you wake up at the end of each session, then you were in a deep trance and were not asleep - which is excellent! If you wake up hours later, then you were asleep and the session will not be effective.
What if I stay completely aware during the hypnosis session?
The hypnosis sessions on these CDs are pretty light, meaning that it is not like the movies. You're not going to become a zombie.
Some people experience the sessions in the way you would experience a great work of fiction. You are totally absorbed, but are aware of the outside world. Other people (usually if they are tired or really need the relaxation) get so absorbed that they do not remember listening to the session. Either way, you will get results. The results are not tied to "going under," but instead are tied to the focusing.
Can I listen while driving?
Absolutely not. Never listen to a hypnosis session while driving or engaged in any activity that requires your attention. Please listen in a quiet place where you will be undisturbed, without operating a vehicle or any dangerous machinery.
Can I contact someone if I still have questions?
Yes! Please let us know if you have any comments, questions, or suggestions. We always welcome customer input.
