英國伍斯特郡一間修鞋工場，老闆為要令工場內的揮發性氣體容易消散，在攝氏零下十三度的環境下，經常將工場大門打開，老闆雖為工人購買大衣保暖，但工人仍冷得騰騰震，不斷投訴。老闆於是請專人催眠員工令他們不覺凍，在短短五分鐘的催眠後更脫剩短褲和T恤，甚至高呼「很熱」。（綜合報道）

　　伍斯特郡一個名叫馬丁 康奈蘭的老闆經營一家製鞋廠。英國氣溫已經降到零下13攝氏度，他為每個僱員買了一件大衣，但是寒風不斷從作坊門鑽進來。儘管僱員穿著大衣，他們依然凍得瑟瑟發抖。

　　Finally, Connellan hired the services of a hypnotist named James Kerwin. After undergoing hypnosis session for five minutes, Connellan dumbfounded. He was surprised to see some of their workers wearing only socks and shorts just after it.

　　後來，康奈蘭請來一名叫詹姆斯 科文的催眠師來為僱員們服務。讓康奈蘭目瞪口呆的是，詹姆斯 科文在對鞋店的僱員們進行5分鐘的催眠以後，一些僱員就熱得脫掉大衣和長褲，只穿短褲和襪子繼續工作。

　　"I was very skeptical so I do not think that (hypnosis) it would work, but after that they even complain about how hot they are," said Connellan.

　　康奈蘭說：“剛開始的時候我還懷疑，怕催眠術不起用，不料他們還抱怨說太熱了”。

　　A worker, Adam Hood said he felt much hotter than before. "At first my hands felt frozen. This is crazy, in a time not long ago. We went from one extreme condition to the opposite extreme," he said.

　　一名叫亞當 伍德的員工稱，他感到比以前熱得多，"剛開始時我的手凍得很，但才過了沒多久，就覺得手心冒汗了，這太瘋狂了。我們從一個極端走到了另一個極端"。

　　James Kerwin said that's all about mind -over- matter, such as reprogramming the computer. "You can train people to think differently about how they feel," says Kerwin.

　　催眠師詹姆斯 科文表示，這一切都是心理在起作用，就像電腦重裝程式一樣。他說：“你可以讓人們從不同的角度去思考，並產生不同的感覺”。
