  Welcome to The Hypnotist, the show that gives you inside
• 0:09
  access to cutting edge hypnosis with real clients facing
• 0:12
  genuine. Issues.
• 0:13
  Brought to you by The Hypnotherapist, demanded by
• 0:16
  celebrities, CEOs and even royalty, Adam Cox.
• 0:20
  These recordings took place live from Evans Clinic in London's
• 0:24
  world famous Harley Street. So get yourself comfortable and
• 0:31
  enjoy today's episode of The Hypnotist.
• 0:39
  Are you terrified of mice or rats or other rodents?
• 0:44
  It's Adam here. And if you couldn't relate to
• 0:46
  that feeling of fear, dread or anxiety at the idea of a rodent,
• 0:51
  I think you're going to get some value from this session because
• 0:54
  I was working with a. Client that.
• 0:56
  Lived in an apartment. But they just.
• 0:58
  Bought a new house and in their mind apartments are safe because
• 1:02
  they don't have rodents and houses have rodents.
• 1:06
  Now, intellectually we know that's not true.
• 1:09
  There are some apartments that have mice, and there are some
• 1:12
  many houses that don't have mice.
• 1:13
  I live in a house, it doesn't have any mouse, many mice.
• 1:17
  So it's certainly possible that that isn't true, but if you
• 1:20
  believe that, then it can cause a lot of anxiety.
• 1:25
  Also, generally homes that are older are more likely to have
• 1:29
  rodents than new builds, and then we're moving into a new
• 1:32
  build, so the actual probability of mice being in a new build
• 1:36
  house where no one's ever lived there before is actually very
• 1:39
  low. But that's not.
• 1:41
  The point? The anxiety was real, and what
• 1:44
  they felt is that if they were to imagine opening a cupboard or
• 1:48
  going into their laundry room and there would be a mouse or a
• 1:51
  rat there, that would freak them out.
• 1:52
  But they were getting freaked out just thinking about that,
• 1:55
  even though they'd never actually lived in that house
• 1:57
  yet. So this does a lot of future
• 2:00
  pacing, accessing a resource state.
• 2:03
  And one of the key things that can make people feel resourceful
• 2:06
  is not this delusion that there's never, ever going to be
• 2:09
  a problem, but that if there is a problem situation, they can
• 2:13
  resolve it easily. And in this particular case, it
• 2:16
  was the idea that they could remove a rodent from their house
• 2:20
  if they needed to. So part of the session before
• 2:23
  the hypnosis, we were looking at humane mouse and, and rat traps,
• 2:28
  the kind of ones that they've got like a little mechanism that
• 2:31
  they're going to get the food and then it it locks them inside
• 2:34
  safely and then they can be transported.
• 2:36
  And they knew that if that happened, so long as the anxiety
• 2:40
  was low enough, they could actually take it to a park far
• 2:44
  enough away from their house that it wouldn't return.
• 2:46
  So this gets the idea that mice and rats is kind of a low
• 2:52
  probability, but it's also a low stakes situation.
• 2:55
  And it's specifically for this client imagining that they can
• 2:58
  feel safe in a new home. But if you have a fear of mice
• 3:03
  or rats or any rodents, it's one of the animal phobias up there
• 3:08
  with insects and spiders that I've done more with clients than
• 3:12
  any. They're the top three spiders,
• 3:14
  insects and rodents, and then probably birds.
• 3:18
  I would say that's probably the fourth.
• 3:20
  I've helped hundreds of people with severe phobias, so if you
• 3:23
  have a phobia of an animal and you don't want it anymore, I
• 3:27
  would encourage you to check out the link in the description.
• 3:30
  Book a consultation call, we'll have a chat.
• 3:32
  And normally it takes me 3 sessions And the fear is so low
• 3:38
  that life is just manageable without it.
• 3:41
  So if you have a fear of something and you don't want it
• 3:44
  anymore, just know that you don't have to keep it, it can be
• 3:47
  changed. Relatively.
• 3:49
  Quickly. So bear that in mind.
• 3:51
  But if you do have a fear of mice, this could be a useful
• 3:54
  session for you, and I would encourage you to find a quiet,
• 3:58
  comfortable place, the kind of lace that you're not going to be
• 4:00
  distracted or disturbed. To relax and.
• 4:03
  Enjoy the session. Take a deep breath in, and as
• 4:32
  you breathe in, breathe in that resourceful feeling of calm and
• 4:38
  relaxation. And as you exhale, feel a
• 4:44
  wonderful feeling of release, as if tension, stress and worry are
• 4:51
  melting away and leaving your body in your outward breath.
• 4:59
  And I want you to think of a colour that would represent
• 5:03
  resourceful relaxation. And as you breathe in, imagine
• 5:09
  breathing in that colour of resourcefulness, that feeling
• 5:14
  that you have the capability to handle any demand.
• 5:22
  You don't need help and you don't need to run away, but you
• 5:29
  have the resources to handle whatever life throws your way.
• 5:38
  Breathing that resourcefulness. And then imagine exhaling any
• 5:43
  insecurities, fears and doubts. Imagine them leaving your body
• 5:49
  like a shadow, breathing in that bright color of resourcefulness
• 5:55
  and and exhaling those shadows of insecurities, fears, worries
• 6:03
  and doubts. Almost like you're cleansing
• 6:08
  your emotions, giving your body those wonderful resources, and
• 6:16
  exhaling anything that would fuel your imagination to think
• 6:24
  things that aren't even true. Some people think of fear as an
• 6:32
  acronym FEAR False evidence that Appears real.
• 6:42
  And some people feel real emotion and then assume that if
• 6:47
  the emotion is real, then the threat or the danger must be
• 6:54
  real. But you know that's not true.
• 7:00
  A child can imagine a monster under their bed and have real
• 7:04
  fear even though the monster doesn't exist.
• 7:11
  Someone could imagine a mouse in a house that doesn't exist, but
• 7:20
  the thought, the thought of it being in a cupboard or a laundry
• 7:26
  room might be enough for the brain to think what if?
• 7:35
  The recipe for worry and fear is what if something bad happens?
• 7:43
  But the recipe for confidence and reassurance is what if I can
• 7:50
  handle any situation I need to. Because positive thinking isn't
• 7:59
  the absence of problems, it's the resources to resolve a
• 8:05
  problem when it appears. I want you to imagine.
• 8:13
  Imagine a movie where there's someone that looks exactly like
• 8:18
  you, you at your most confident, you at your most resourceful.
• 8:30
  And I want you to imagine that version of you in a new home, a
• 8:38
  new home even before you've moved in.
• 8:43
  And I want you to imagine that version of you has bought a
• 8:47
  selection of humane mouse and rat traps.
• 8:55
  I want you to see that version of you putting food at the end,
• 9:02
  setting the traps and putting them at different locations in
• 9:06
  this new home before anyone else even lives there.
• 9:14
  And I want you to see that that version of you is happy with
• 9:20
  whatever happens, because if these humane traps capture a
• 9:27
  mouse, then you get to remove the mouse even before moving in.
• 9:38
  But if there's a house with no food and there are mice living
• 9:43
  there, then the food. In the traps is the.
• 9:46
  Only food that exists. And therefore if these humane
• 9:53
  traps don't capture a single mouse, it stands to reason that
• 10:01
  there are no mice living in that house.
• 10:07
  So you either remove a mouse or get the evidence that there are
• 10:13
  none. Either way is a win.
• 10:20
  I want you to imagine on that same screen returning
• 10:26
  confidently, resourcefully, pragmatically.
• 10:32
  And I want you to be checking your traps and just imagine that
• 10:38
  one of the traps has caught one. That version of you is not
• 10:46
  anxious or scared. See that version of you
• 10:50
  confidently placing the trap perhaps in a bucket, and then
• 10:56
  taking the bucket to the park, releasing the trap and the
• 11:03
  animal out there in nature, but far enough away from your home
• 11:09
  so it can't return? And I want you to see the sense
• 11:14
  of pride accomplishment on that version of you.
• 11:21
  Because that version of you is now thinking of mice in the same
• 11:28
  way that you might think of clearing up vomit or removing a
• 11:33
  spider. Pragmatic and capable that you
• 11:42
  are able to resolve an unwanted situation, but without needing
• 11:48
  anxiety to do it. And I want you to imagine how
• 11:54
  difficult it would be to feel any anxiety on the 11th time
• 12:01
  that you take a mouse to the park to let it go.
• 12:07
  Maybe there was a tiny bit on the first or second, but each
• 12:12
  time it got less and less and less until now it's just
• 12:20
  something that doesn't bother you anymore.
• 12:26
  I want you to imagine a month after moving into that new home,
• 12:34
  you still keep the humane traps there, but you're checking them
• 12:39
  less and less. Perhaps one day they're just
• 12:45
  taking up space and they don't capture anything anyway, so you
• 12:50
  just put them away in an old cupboard, a box in the attic
• 12:59
  there if you ever need them. But I want you to imagine one
• 13:06
  day, imagine seeing yourself like you're someone else opening
• 13:12
  a cupboard and seeing a mouse is there.
• 13:18
  And I want you to see that version of you isn't shocked or
• 13:21
  scared. It just makes a thought.
• 13:29
  Let me get those humane mouse traps and put it in this
• 13:33
  location. Imagine that version of you
• 13:37
  returning to that same cupboard or location two or three.
• 13:42
  Days. Later and seeing a mouse inside
• 13:46
  and imagine that version of you takes it down to the park and
• 13:51
  releases it. And now rewind then and imagine
• 13:58
  it happening from a first person perspective.
• 14:02
  Imagining open a door, seeing a mouse and feeling the same way
• 14:10
  that you would feel if a child vomited and you knew how to
• 14:17
  clear it up. Or a little spider was in a room
• 14:22
  and you didn't want it to be there.
• 14:27
  I want you to feel how you would feel if there is a desire to
• 14:31
  resolve the situation. Imagine laying the trap in the
• 14:37
  same location, returning, opening the door.
• 14:44
  And then just imagine that there is a mouse in a humane trap or
• 14:50
  maybe a rat in a bigger trap. And I want you to feel a sense
• 14:56
  of empowerment, resourcefulness, as you imagine taking it
• 15:01
  somewhere to release it far enough away that it doesn't
• 15:06
  return in a way that makes you feel empowered.
• 15:15
  Just because you don't fear them doesn't mean they are welcome in
• 15:19
  your home. I want you to get a sense that
• 15:25
  when you think about houses and homes, you make the assumption
• 15:31
  that all houses and homes are mouse and rat free unless there
• 15:37
  is irrefutable evidence that they are there.
• 15:43
  Either you see them, there's droppings, or you capture one.
• 15:50
  But if consistently there are no clues, it will reaffirm your
• 15:56
  belief that your home is mouse and rat free.
• 16:02
  And just imagine feeling safe, feeling comfortable, feeling
• 16:07
  relaxed in that new home, and knowing with absolute certainty
• 16:17
  that if in the future there was a mouse or a rat, you would know
• 16:22
  exactly how to capture it and how to remove it and not need
• 16:28
  anyone else's help to do it. If you're unconscious can
• 16:33
  imagine that capturing and removing a mouse or a rat and
• 16:40
  feeling confident and anxiety free while you do it.
• 16:45
  Consider this a seed planted in your subconscious mind as that
• 16:51
  belief will become stronger and stronger.
• 16:55
  And if you ever think of a mouse in your proximity, shrink it
• 17:01
  down to a dot and replace it with a scenario view with all of
• 17:08
  the resources and capabilities to capture and remove it.
• 17:17
  If your unconscious agrees, let me know by nodding your head.
• 17:23
  That's it. I want you to imagine a year has
• 17:27
  passed now in this new home, you feel safe, confident, relaxed,
• 17:33
  knowing that there are no mice or rats there.
• 17:39
  But if in the unlikely event that there ever were, your
• 17:44
  capabilities can resolve the situation quickly and stress and
• 17:50
  anxiety free. With that in mind, it's time to
• 17:55
  float back to the here and the now, taking all of these new
• 18:00
  beliefs and thoughts with you. And the more you think in this
• 18:05
  way, the truer it becomes. And the truer it becomes, the
• 18:09
  less anxiety you feel and more confident, resourceful and
• 18:14
  pragmatic you will feel. So take a deep breath in through
• 18:18
  your nose and out through your nose.
• 18:23
  Just wiggle your fingers, wiggle your toes, connect and calibrate
• 18:28
  into the here and the now as I now count from 1:00 to 10:00 to
• 18:37
  awaken you. Starting to count 123, waking up
• 18:45
  456, more alert. 7-8. Open your eyes.
• 18:50
  Open your eyes 910 Wide awake, Wide awake.
