Warm hypnosis

A British cobbler has had his freezing staff hypnotised into thinking they're warm.

A British cobbler has had his freezing staff hypnotised into thinking they're warm.

Martin Connellan refused to buy heaters for his employees after temperatures plunged to -13°C and even though he purchased them coats to wear in the workshop, they were still cold.

But after a five-minute session with hypnotist James Kerwin they are now so warm they are working in their shorts and T-shirts.

Worker Adam Hood, 27, said: "I definitely feel much hotter than I was. All my life I've had cold hands and that's even gone now. It's crazy how you can go from one extreme to the other like that."

Hypnotist James added: "It's all about mind over matter."
