0:41
Hi, it's Adam here. And in this episode of The
0:44
Hypnotist, you're going to be listening to a hypnosis session
0:47
that was designed to help someone going through an
0:51
emotionally difficult time. The client that I was working
0:54
with was dealing in the aftermath not just of a
0:58
separation, but a separation with someone that was actively
1:03
trying to trigger them and to exploit the situation for their
1:08
own gains. And because of that, it left
1:10
them in a very vulnerable position.
1:13
A lot of stress, a lot of anxiety, a lot of uncertainty.
1:17
And because of. That they were low on
1:19
motivation, high on stress, high on anxiety, and that wasn't?
1:22
Conducive to. What they wanted to be at this
1:26
particular time in their life. They could remember a time,
1:29
however, after a breakup, where they also felt low and stressed
1:35
and a bit lethargic. And in that case they used to
1:39
sport. And that sport was playing polo.
1:42
It's the sport where you ride horses and you have to score a
1:46
goal in the in the opponent's net, I believe.
1:49
But that game of polo really enabled them to.
1:53
Take. All of those emotions and find a
1:56
way of distracting themselves, really throwing themselves into
1:59
something new. And that was really helpful.
2:02
And by getting into that state, that opened up lots of
2:05
opportunities for new skills, new friendships, new
2:09
experiences, travel, all of that kind of stuff.
2:11
And they spent a lot of time traveling overseas, particularly
2:15
in Argentina when they were learning polo, and because that
2:18
was a time in their life when they felt particularly
2:22
resourceful. We use.
2:24
Regression to that time to help them to really feel that
2:29
actually they can get themselves in a resourceful.
2:32
State a state. Where they can feel liberated
2:36
and free and stimulated and enthusiastic and really
2:39
resilient as well. And then we future pace that to
2:43
their current situation. So that rather than dwelling on
2:47
the negative elements of their situation or wallowing in a a
2:51
sense of feeling vulnerable, instead we want to access an
2:56
empowered. State where they.
2:57
Actually feel that actually this is a great opportunity to pursue
3:04
things that maybe they couldn't have pursued if they weren't in
3:07
the situation that they're in. So there's an element of looking
3:10
at it as a lens of empowerment and freedom rather than feeling
3:15
trapped and in a precarious situation.
3:19
And then we also future pace, because this is clearly going to
3:21
be a temporary period in their life to two years in the future
3:25
where they can see that actually this was a rough period, but a
3:28
rough period that actually gave them positive experiences and
3:32
moments, even though it was a difficult time.
3:35
So there's a bit going on here. You don't need to have to be
3:38
going through a breakup or going through anything in particular
3:42
if. You feel.
3:43
Low on motivation or you feel with a high level of financial
3:47
stress or just stress in general, I think you'll benefit
3:49
from this situation. Just be aware of course, that it
3:52
was created for an individual. It's unlikely that you have had
3:57
experience playing polo or you want to learn how to ride a
4:00
motorbike. These are unlikely things
4:03
happening in your life, so just disregard any suggestions that
4:06
are irrelevant. Honing onto the suggestions that
4:09
are relevant, and if you do like the idea of a session entirely
4:13
calibrated and bespoke to you and your situation, look at the
4:16
description for a link to. Schedule A free.
4:19
Consultation call. For now, though, find a quiet,
4:22
comfortable place where you won't be disturbed.
4:25
Relax and enjoy the session. Take a deep breath in and on the
5:12
outward breath as it close your eyes breathing in relaxation and
5:21
exhaling tension that's in. As you breathe in, just allow
5:29
yourself to breathe in slower and deeper, and as you release,
5:37
just elongate the outward breath to really.
5:40
Feel. That you're releasing and maybe
5:45
you're releasing stored up tension, stresses or worries and
5:53
start to make the evaluation that these emotions often are
5:59
experienced physically, quite often stresses locked in the
6:07
muscle tissue around the jaw, the forehead, the neck or the
6:13
shoulders. And often anxieties are there in
6:20
the gut or the chest. But imagine as you breathe in,
6:29
you're breathing in not just relaxation, but resourceful
6:35
relaxation. Imagine a warm colour glowing
6:42
yellow and orange. And as you breathe in, imagine
6:48
that resourceful relaxation is that glowing yellow or orange.
6:58
And imagine your heart does with that resourceful relaxation what
7:05
it does with oxygen. Imagine your heart absorbing
7:13
that resource for relaxation and then distributing it to every
7:20
cell in your body. Imagine that warm glow melting
7:29
away that stress, those worries, that tension.
7:37
That's it. As you feel your eyelids getting
7:40
heavier and more relaxed, focusing on the tiny muscles in
7:45
your forehead, those muscles responsible for expressions like
7:51
surprise or concern, feel the resource for relaxation, melting
7:57
that tension away. Allow that relaxation to ripple
8:07
down into your jaw. Quite often, tension in the jaw
8:16
is the Canary in the coal mine, lets you know how stressed or
8:22
tense you are. But as you breathe in that
8:26
resourceful relaxation, feel your jaw relaxing, letting you
8:33
know that you're able to release those emotions that aren't here
8:42
now. They're just echoes.
8:46
Echoes of a time when that stress, that anxiety was
8:51
completely proportionate and valid.
8:55
But right here, now, you don't need to hold on to that tension
9:01
as you start to imagine any stress in your neck and
9:05
shoulders as crystals of ice fused into your muscle tissue.
9:13
But as you breathe in that warm colour of resourceful
9:17
relaxation, just imagine it melting away that frozen muscle
9:25
tissue. Perhaps you could imagine an ice
9:31
cube or a child's ice cream melting away in the sun, and it
9:36
feels like tension in your body is melting away just like that.
9:45
And as you release that tension, feel the relaxation flowing down
9:49
your arms. So your arms are feeling limp,
9:53
loose and heavy like the limbs of a puppet with no strings.
10:00
As you breathe in, breathe in that glowing, resourceful
10:04
relaxation. But imagine a dark colour
10:09
leaving your body in your outward breath.
10:12
Gray shadow is representing anything unresourceful.
10:19
Just imagine that leaving your body as each breath becomes a
10:24
transfusion, giving your body the resources and emotions that
10:31
are useful and releasing the echoes of those emotions that
10:38
you don't need right now. Some people believe that what
10:45
actually happens isn't as important as the meaning
10:51
attributed to that thing. I want you to get a sense that
11:02
sometimes horrible things can happen but can be given an
11:09
empowering positive meaning as you think back to your past.
11:18
Maybe there was a time when something emotionally
11:22
devastating happened, a major breakup, and your initial
11:28
reaction was sadness, ruminating thoughts, low energy until you
11:39
found a distraction. But the distraction was just a
11:45
stepping stone to something so much more empowering.
11:52
Imagine going back in time and seeing that version of you,
11:58
perhaps in your 20s, in the immediate aftermath of that
12:03
major breakup. A time when you were withdrawn,
12:10
low energy, lacking motivation to do anything, just taking each
12:16
day see yourself forcing yourself to even eat or sleep,
12:23
to wash, just going through the motions.
12:30
But as you observe that version of you, I want you to see a
12:38
catalyst. And maybe it came from
12:41
inspiration, your intuition, or just a decision.
12:48
See that younger version of you deciding to throw yourself into
12:53
something, something that you didn't have the competency,
13:02
knowledge or connections to do, but you did it anyway.
13:08
And maybe for you, that was a new sport.
13:12
So see that younger version of you not half heartedly trying
13:18
something. See yourself immersed,
13:26
committed, perhaps even obsessed at times in that new thing.
13:35
Some people believe in the idea of the law of dominant effect
13:43
that are more dominant emotion displaces a less intense
13:47
emotion. And maybe that enthusiasm, that
13:54
interest, that passion for this new sport displaced the sadness
14:06
or perhaps the low energy we need to get a sand.
14:15
Then you already have evidence from your past of seizing an
14:24
opportunity of going from low mood to intense enthusiasm and
14:36
even joy. And each time you tried, you
14:42
learned something new. Your competence and confidence
14:46
grew, which then opened new doors of possibility.
14:54
New friends, new connections, new adventures.
15:01
And I want you to see that version of you, perhaps just
15:05
months after that major breakup, travelling to Argentina.
15:15
I want you to see that that low energy, that sadness had been
15:21
replaced with something much more powerful.
15:28
Maybe you see yourself with that confidence.
15:37
I want you to see how you looked safe, that you were respected,
15:49
but there was also so much pride coming from getting better.
15:58
You see yourself on a horse, and in that moment the mindfulness
16:09
wasn't an Eastern philosophy, it was a prerequisite for you
16:16
playing a game. You couldn't play that game well
16:23
if your mind is off in all different places.
16:30
Feeling the vibration of the horse, the movement, the
16:35
location of other players. All those moving parts required
16:41
full mindfulness, and in those moments, nothing else mattered.
16:50
Maybe you were accessing a state known as flow, sufficient
16:58
stimulation and challenge and a requirement of full mindfulness.
17:08
Imagine stepping into that version of you, feeling
17:13
resourceful, confident and mindful.
17:18
Feel that you are reawakening those same neural pathways
17:22
within you and enjoyment, confidence, fashion and
17:34
enthusiasm. Feel your awakening all of those
17:37
states. And remember back then that when
17:43
you felt that way, good things happened.
17:48
New friendships, new connections, new experiences,
17:52
wonderful memories. It naturally flowed from you
17:56
being in a good state. I want you to think of a place
18:03
back there on that ranch in Argentina, a place perhaps that
18:11
you would see the sunset, a time of perhaps reflection or
18:22
relaxation. And just imagine you're back
18:25
there, feeling that confidence, that energy, that
18:30
resourcefulness, noticing how free you are.
18:38
I want you to think forwards to a future that hadn't happened
18:42
yet, A time when you were going through another difficult period
18:48
in your life, but perhaps years into the future.
18:55
Imagine that 25 year old version of you feeling all of that
19:01
confidence and energy, self respect, motivation and
19:05
enthusiasm. Looking forward to seeing a
19:07
version of you also going through a difficult time.
19:14
And I want you to see see yourself doing something on a
19:19
motorcycle. But those ruminating thoughts,
19:28
distractions, impeded your ability to get what you desire,
19:33
more freedom. But imagine rewinding that and
19:41
seeing yourself on the motorbike in the same way that you have
19:47
been on a horse. Feeling that flow state, fully
19:50
mindful, aware of all the moving parts.
19:54
Knowing that you can make those great choices of knowing exactly
19:59
what to do and then see. See yourself doing what's
20:07
necessary to get that license. And then see yourself with a
20:14
similar expression on a motorbike that maybe in the past
20:19
you've had on a horse. Sense of adventure, Freedom.
20:26
The whole world is your oyster geographically, but also in
20:34
terms of new connections. Just imagine a ripple effect.
20:44
By reawakening that resourceful state, you throw yourself into
20:50
new challenges, new experiences. I want you to see yourself
20:59
riding on a Harley-Davidson in Arizona.
21:04
There is no anxiety on your face, no stress.
21:08
There's the opposite. See yourself looking confident,
21:15
competent with freedom feeling. Then you are evolving to a
21:28
version of you that is you at your very best, strong fit in a
21:39
flow state. And then perhaps imagine
21:43
yourself on a different motorbike, this time in Spain,
21:51
and you can tell from the terrain, the road signs, see
21:59
yourself again in that flow state.
22:04
And from these perspectives, you are awakening a version of you
22:13
that is resilient, determined. I want you to see that safety
22:27
comes not from the absence of risks, but the resources that
22:33
exist to mitigate any circumstance.
22:39
Riding on a horse can be dangerous, but not if you know
22:42
what you're doing. Riding a motorcycle can be
22:46
dangerous, but not if you're skilled.
22:50
Navigating certain periods in a life can hold its risks, but not
22:56
if you meet those risks with courage and confidence, a sense
23:01
of conviction that things will work out fine.
23:07
Then I want you to see that future version of you with this
23:12
new lease of life, going on dates, enjoying the freedom with
23:21
that freedom comes from seeing people you want to see exploring
23:26
new parts of the world, or the freedom of just getting on a
23:31
motorbike and going wherever you want to go.
23:34
See that version of you with a new lease of life?
23:45
And when you can see that future version of you with that, let me
23:49
know about nodding your head. And then step into that version
24:02
of you thinking about what it means to have an adventure.
24:14
If something's easy, has no challenge, has no risk, that
24:20
isn't an adventure. It is the difficulties, the
24:27
adversity, the challenge, the navigating of decisions,
24:35
choices. That's what makes it an
24:40
adventure. And when you think back to what
24:48
things really mean, sit, breathe in, breathe in.
24:51
Let's sit deeper, relaxed. I want you to get a sand then,
25:00
where focus goes, energy flows, and sometimes the emotions we
25:06
feel a reflection not of reality, but of the meaning that
25:10
we give it. And what if you were to give
25:15
this chapter in your life an empowering meaning?
25:23
That meaning could be freedom. The meaning could be recharging
25:30
your batteries, restoring who you truly are.
25:37
The meaning could be an adventure.
25:41
And the more empowering the meaning you give this chapter of
25:46
your life, the more positive, empowering and strong, useful
25:54
emotions naturally will come up. You always have choices.
26:05
You can choose where you live, what you do, who you see and
26:14
what you do with your time. I want you to feel that.
26:20
Any sensations of feeling trapped are now being replaced
26:24
with a feeling of freedom and liberation.
26:29
You're not trapped, you're liberated.
26:34
Lean into that liberated feeling and allow your unconscious and
26:41
intuition to guide you on this journey, activating the version
26:47
of you that will make the most not of an easy time.
26:56
In fact, the time may be challenging.
27:00
The fact that it's challenging is what gives it the
27:03
significance, giving you more resilience, even more
27:10
confidence, a sense that if you can get through this, you can
27:16
get through anything. People get stronger in a gym,
27:22
not by lifting easy weights, lifting heavier weights, and
27:28
stamina grows when you push beyond your limits.
27:35
Consider this period an adventure that requires growth
27:42
and evolution for you to become better and more resilient and
27:50
more equipped than ever before. And then let's go one step
27:58
further in the future. Imagine yourself perhaps 2 years
28:01
from now. The difficult period is now
28:06
behind you. But I want you to imagine
28:10
looking back at that difficult period with a sense of pride,
28:16
that you met that challenge and adversity with the very best
28:23
version of you. That it couldn't break you and
28:29
in fact, it did make you stronger.
28:35
Allow a seed of an idea to be planted deep in your
28:37
subconscious mind that you will make this time work for you, not
28:42
against you, and any challenges and difficulties just give you
28:48
even more strength and resilience.
28:54
Learning to play polo wasn't easy, but it certainly was
29:00
worthwhile. And sometimes difficult journeys
29:05
lead to worthwhile destinations. So as you hold that thought,
29:10
it's time to drift all the way back, back to that a place in
29:17
Argentina, and then back to where we are right now.
29:21
But feeling a new sense of resourcefulness, a new lease of
29:25
life and you empowering meaning that you give this time that
29:33
recharges you and springs you forward, not drains you and
29:38
holds you back. So take a deep breath in through
29:41
your nose and out through your nose.
29:46
Wiggle your fingers and wiggle your toes.
29:48
Connect and calibrate into the here and the now as I now count
29:53
from 1:00 to 10:00 to awaken you.
29:56
You will awaken feeling resourceful, recharged with a
30:02
desire to pursue freedom, adventures and lean into
30:10
adversity to give you more resilience.
