Hypnoticon' Guests
 Susan Abdinor
For South African hypnotist Susan Abdinor, it's all about Human Perception and Reaction...for her,it's these two mysteries that have been at the root of a lifelong interest in all things mind related. It has been only natural for her to seek out every possible method related to impacting the way people do things.
A Certified Hypnotist with a background in persuasive language, NLP and Ericksonian techniques, She has made it her life's goal to truly understand how the mind works. This passion taken her into explorations of Hypnosis and the multiple uses it has outside of the "normal" recreational and sensual applications. Her passion and dedication to finding what works best within the realms of constant change and growth are surpassed only by the strict personal ethic she holds herself to.
She has been an active and noteworthy presence in the online community under the name Prismfire and acts as owner and moderator of more than one forum.
Susan will be instructing the "Hypnosis 101" How to Hypnotize class. She will also moderate the "Power Exchange" panel with fellow Hypno Dommes Lady Izzabelle and Mistress Joanne.

 Wendi Friesen
Wendi Friesen
is fascinated by hypnosis and the effect that suggesting
has on our body and mind She first began studying
Hypnosis and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and the
potential effects of the waking trance states that are
produced with language patterns, covert programming and
embedded suggestions. As she learned hypnosis, she
explored deeper states of trance and traveled to seek
out trainers in the US and in England, to become an
expert. Studying the effects of thought, belief, placebo
and suggestion on our physical state of health and
emotion allows her to experiment with her clients to
produce dramatic and unusual changes in the health and
physical state of a person. Wendi teaches covert
persuasion, hypnotic marketing, and body language.
Wendi’s seminars around the world show the effects of a
state of mind that is induced with suggestion. The
combination of over 12 years of research, over 10,000
clients, and 100,000s around the world in seminars and
her creative and intuitive mind, has made her an expert
in her field. She is a popular speaker for corporations,

 Mistress Joanne
Mistress Joanne began her
professional career as a journalist with a Bachelor of Science
in Journalism from Bowling Green State University. After
working in the media for several years, she felt that her
creative voice as a writer was being squelched. Utterly
fascinated by hypnosis since her youth, she spent nearly 20
years educating herself without ever having an outlet for it.
During a time of spiritual awakening and self-actualization,
she discovered the online erotic hypnosis community in 2000,
and her path quickly became clear. Upon learning that there
truly were countless others who shared her passion for
hypnosis, this is when she realized her life's true calling as
a hypnotic seductress. With her true passion ignited, she
fully immersed herself in the art, the science and the
lifestyle and began to practice hypnosis on a daily basis,
exploring hypnotic power exchanges with consenting adults. In
2001, Mistress Joanne started recording hypnotic mp3's ranging
in intensity from fantasy exploration/fulfillment to
recordings geared for submissive minds truly seeking a
profound power exchange. She also began writing "hypnotic
poetry", designed to entrance readers and listeners with a
decidedly Dominant/submissive slant. Including titles such as
"Blue-eyed Seductress" and "Loops of Scarlet Mist", her poetry
addressed the hypno-erotic fetish in addition to a plethora of
other fetishes. A kinky yet nurturing Hypnoteuse and Domina,
Mistress Joanne has dedicated herself to broadening the
expanse of sensual art thru her hypnotic creations. Creatively
prolific, her online catalog now exceeds 100 uniquely crafted
sessions. Go to

 Tom Vizinni and Kim McFarland
Kim McFarland and
Tom Vizzini have spent the last 15 years taking the
complex and making it simple for everyday people to
learn and use. They started with the art of unconscious
persuasion for every day people. They made skills like
Anchoring, Trance, and Rapport simple and powerful.
Their background in Hypnosis, NLP, Qi Gong, and Chinese
Medicine led them into an interesting place. They
started getting powerful personal changes in their
persuasion seminars in addition to what the participants
came for. This lead them to the development of the 3D
Mind™. The 3D Mind™ is very simple to learn, understand,
and use in a very short period of time. It is based on
one powerful yet simple concept. The 3D Mind™ operates
on the principle of associated emotional states. There
are no patterns and there are no programs. There are
associations and results from those associations. These
associations create an environment not a program. If
someone is out of balance and is primarily in the
creative/adaptive area of the brain, they tend to be
lazy and unmotivated. The primal brain is a movement
initiator and without it there is no movement. If
someone is primarily in the reptilian/primal brain, the
person's reactions depend directly on the input of the
moment. The reactions are unpredictable and unreasoned.
The creative/adaptive part of the brain is a problem
solver. Without it all decisions are emotionally based.
There is constant movement but no steering. These are
structural environments not strategies. The 3D Mind™
deconstructs the associated states that are causing a
problem, and balances them so that the creative/adaptive
and the primal/reptilian parts of the brain work
together. For the past several years they have been
consulting with Dr. Ken Guiffre, author of Care and
Feeding of the Brain. He has a youtube presentation on
how
the
physical brain generates emotional
drivers.
Kim and Tom have traveled the world teaching people to free themselves using
the 3D Mind™. The results have been astounding. People with little or no
experience or training have been able to transform their lives using the 3D
Mind™. The best part is that people can do it for themselves.
Other products that they have produced are Interview Magic, Magical
Rapport, Anchoring and other Sneaky Stuff, Covert Verbal Communication, and
a very successful membership site with monthly video seminars. Please feel
