Welcome!

This is the 19th International Hypnosis Congress of the International Hypnosis Society, which dates its inception from 1889, and which has taken place every three years since 1973. The congress brings together leading experts from all over the world who represent a wide range of hypnotic skills, theoretical orientations and research interests. Numerous renowned hypnosis experts have replied to our invitation and will contribute to the congress. The ISH congress offers a pleasant atmosphere for speakers and participants from all over the world to meet, to exchange ideas and learn from one another.

Structure of the Congress

The congress will offer a range of learning components with 3 hour and 1.5 hour workshops, lectures, panel discussions, symposia and keynote speeches. There will be many parallel events from which to choose what is most interesting for you and your work.

Congress Languages

German and English (and French)

The keynote presentations will take place in the largest room of the Conference Center as well as the largest workshops. These events will have simultaneous translation (German, English and French). All other presentations, in German or English, are without translation. It is possible that there will be a few workshops held in other languages (e.g. French) as we plan for a more international experience. Currently 15-20 parallel events in English and German are being planned.

Cultural Program

At this writing we have confirmation of some famous artists for a humorous and entertaining cultural program. On Saturday there will be a congress party. On Friday evening, directly in front of our congress Center "The Freimarkt of Bremen" will take place. This is the largest feast of the North, an almost 1000 year old tradition, which predates the Oktoberfest by several hundred years.
