Background on

Don Spencer &

SleepNow Productions

Hello Friends, I began hypnosis fulltime in 1986 and created SleepNow Productions, Inc.

Since that time it rapidly became one of the world's foremost sites for hypnotic information, hypnotic training, hypnotic products and for professional hypnotic entertainment. I know you'll enjoy the site and I look forward to assisting you during your quest for hypnotic realities!

I am constantly working to stay abreast of the latest developments in the mind sciences and create hypnosis programs that are ground-breaking and futuristic. I believe you'll enjoy what I've done. As always, if you have any great ideas please feel free to drop me a line.

Don Spencer

Hypnotic Biography of Spencer

Don Spencer first induced hypnosis at the age of 12. His young "girlfriend" at the time was being hypnotized by her father who was in the military. She taught the young Spencer the art of stilling the mind. He would sit quietly with her head on his lap. Rubbing her temples and having her count backwards she quickly entered a deep somnambulistic state! The astonished Spencer gave her directions. The teenage boy likened the experience to an exaggerated Simon Says.

TRAINING
Spencer never forgot that experience and over the years was drawn to books and classes, movies and people that hovered on the edge of the mysterious. His curiosity led him to formal educational studies in philosophy, psychology, physiology, abnormal behavior and comparative religion. Alternative studies that captivated his attention and lifestyle were shamanism, metaphysics, hypnotism, NLP, kinesiology, and theater.

HYPNOTHERAPIST
1986 - Spencer began his work as a Hypnotherapist. His most influential teachers at the time were Charles Tebetts, Ormand McGill, Jim Russell, Al Krasner and other notables to numerous to mention. He began his associations with the leading certification bodies of the day. He developed the Hypnotism Training Institute of Idaho in 1989, Hypnotism Training International in Utah in 1991, the Personal Acheivement Center for private consultations and morphed into SleepNow Productions, Inc. SleepNow went online in 1994 as a leader in hypnosis information and technology.

SPENCER says...
that there is nothing magical or mystical about hypnosis. An individual can be hypnotized without even realizing it. In fact, people slip in and out of hypnosis all day long. Hypnosis is based upon the power of suggestion with the addition of relaxation and concentration.

SPENCER says...
that his subjects can be hypnotized in less than one second!

Present Time - Spencer now calls Montana his home. He travels with his comedy hypnosis show and SpencerSeminars, providing Private Hypnosis Consultations and Stage Hypnosis Mentoring. At home he delights in being a single dad to a wonderful son Dakota and you can find him fishing, golfing or mtn. biking most sunny days.
