St John Paul II Catholic College (Canberra - ACT)

On Wednesday afternoon JPC’s Senior Exercise Science, Psychology, Sociology & Religion classes were lucky enough to have famous Kiwi Hypnotist; Gerard V come and perform.

In their respective classes, the students have all been looking at how the brain works and the impacts in relation to their relevant subjects. Gerard V was engaging and had the volunteers completing a number of humourous actions, from pretending to be household appliances like toasters and blenders, to singing nursery rhymes in styles like opera and heavy metal. Beyond the entertainment, Gerard was able to give students some valuable insights into how hypnotism works, what is happening in the brain and what it can be used for in relation to sports, therapy and general wellbeing.

All involved were thoroughly amused and have taken some valuable lessons from this experience. It was also a great experience for a number of Gungahlin College students who were invited to join the show.
