Honoring Anthony Galie
Anthony Thomas Galie was our Keynote speaker on two separate occasions at the Heartland Hypnosis Conference. He exemplified a true gentleman, a highly skilled professional speaker, hypnotist, and scholar in the neuroscience of hypnotism. Unfortunately, I was informed of his passing this morning. His demise is a significant loss to our profession and the global community of exceptional individuals. I held his ethics and professionalism in high esteem. Notwithstanding the fact that our conference in St. Louis is relatively modest, Anthony addressed me with the respect and professionalism one would expect from a major event offering a $10,000 speaking fee. He was a true gentleman and consummate professional. During his inaugural keynote at Heartland, he discussed his theory of hypnotism, which we recorded so this theory could be submitted as a proposal for research . His theory is currently being researched at Johns Hopkins University. You may hear this Keynote for FREE BY Signing up for our FREE Newsletter here:

Our Story
For 3 years Mitchell Institute of Professional Hypnosis held a different hypnosis training event on the same last weekend of April to make certain we would be able to draw talented professional hypnotists. Then in 2014 with the help of my friends in the field of Hypnotism, we held our first HEARTLAND HYPNOSIS CONFERENCE with 4 TRACKS of classes offered every hour for 3 days. As the organizer and founder I have been amazed at the caliber and character of both our participants and our presenters. Some have attended every Heartland Conference, however, every year we have dynamic new professionals at Heartland.
I want to invite YOU to share YOUR STORY of professionalism, success, and collegial relationships to this unique educational event. I invite you to be a part of weaving our stories together to offer real help and positive outcomes to our clients and profession. We are better because we came together and shared.
This conference is affordable, educational, and fun!
The collegial opportunities are without equal in the profession.
