Columbus, Ohio (PRWEB) December 30, 2005 -- Hypnotists around the world will be sharing their expertise with the public on Wednesday, January 4, 2006, in observance of World Hypnotism Day. Hypnosis professionals from twenty different professional organizations will be marking the second annual observance of this day by participating in a variety of programs which promote the truths and benefits of hypnotism. Jeffrey Richards, owner of Peak Performance Hypnosis in Columbus, is spearheading these efforts in the Central Ohio area.

In celebration of World Hypnotism Day, Richards will present "Resolution Supercharger," a program explaining five specific techniques anyone can use to become more motivated towards any personal goal. The program will end with a group hypnosis session. Wellness Works, located at 1000 Old Henderson Road in Upper Arlington, is hosting the event, which will be held from 7:00-9:00 on Wednesday evening. A clinical and educational facility dedicated to improving people's lives, Wellness Works was founded by Bruce Doolin, an expert in holistic body/mind therapies since 1991. The program is free and open to the public.

Hypnotism is a safe and effective intervention for a variety of motivational, self-improvement and goal-setting situations. Used since ancient times and recognized by the American Medical Association in 1958, it is natural and free of side effects. When performed by a certified, competent, professional practitioner, the results are long-lasting and often permanent. No one can be hypnotized against his or her will and no one can be forced to do things while under hypnosis that he or she does not want to do.

Mr. Richards is a certified hypnotist and president of the Society of Applied Hypnosis, an professional and certification organization representing hypnotists on six continents. He owns and operates Peak Performance Hypnosis in Columbus, Ohio, a full-service hypnosis practice. Peak Performance Hypnosis has been in business since November, 2000.

Mr. Richards is available for interviews and to answer questions about World Hypnotism Day.
