The Way of Trance

Are you or someone you know in a trance? Is there a better way to understand how trance works, how to create a trance, how to end a trance? Dennis Wier has been studying, teaching and experimenting with trance for more than 35 years. Some of the results of his investigations have wide-reaching implications in the areas of religion, politics, psychology and self-improvement. For Wier, the study of trance includes not only meditation, hypnosis, addictions, charisma, magic and altered states of consciousness. It also includes electronic mind control techniques and discusses the ethical questions these practices provoke. First Published: July, 2007
