Book Review: Stage Hypnosis “My Way” by Terry Stokes – A Must-Read for Any Stage Hypnotist
If you’re involved in stage hypnosis — whether you’re just starting out or you’ve already had your fair share of dodgy mic setups and Friday night rowdy crowds — Stage Hypnosis “My Way” by Terry Stokes is an essential read.
Now, let’s be clear. This book isn’t glossy. It’s not packed with marketing fluff or shiny diagrams. It’s raw. It’s honest. And it’s absolutely packed with real-world, no-nonsense advice from one of the true legends of our industry.
Terry doesn’t hold back. He walks you through how he built his shows — from his induction process to how he handles volunteers, paces the show, and adapts to the audience in front of him. It’s the kind of insight you’d normally only get after sharing a green room with someone like him… or being lucky enough to open for him.
What stood out to me personally was the simplicity. He reminds you that you don’t need to reinvent the wheel — you just need to understand your audience, deliver with confidence, and lean into what works.
As someone who’s been doing stage shows for over 20 years — from cruise ships to corporate gigs — I found myself nodding all the way through. Not because it was all new, but because it was right. It was honest. It was real.
Who’s it for?
- Aspiring stage hypnotists who want a realistic look behind the curtain
- Working pros who’ll appreciate a dose of no-frills wisdom
- Hypnotherapists curious about what happens on the stage side of things
Whether you’re building your first set or fine-tuning a show that already works, this book is a great companion.
