  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
  Hi, it's Adam here. And if you're listening to this,
• 0:42
  it might be because you've got a real desire to have really good
• 0:46
  sleep. And this is a sleep hypnosis
• 0:49
  session with a difference. And that's because it uses
• 0:53
  levels of disassociation. If you've ever seen the movie
• 0:58
  Inception, you'll get the idea of dreams within dreams within
• 1:01
  dreams. And I talk at conferences all
• 1:04
  around the world on nested loops.
• 1:06
  And what I find is that levels of disassociation where you
• 1:10
  start in one place, go somewhere else, go somewhere else acts a
• 1:14
  lot like nested loops, which can really enrich levels of
• 1:18
  disassociation and levels of really accessing that kind of
• 1:23
  place. Where you get really?
• 1:24
  Good quality, either hypnosis and that can easily transfer
• 1:28
  into sleep. Now this starts in one place,
• 1:32
  takes you somewhere else, takes you somewhere else with the
• 1:34
  opportunity to choose the kind of bed.
• 1:36
  And there's lots of sleep suggestions, metaphors and very
• 1:40
  powerful techniques in this that can really enhance sleep.
• 1:43
  So if you struggle with sleep, you might get some benefit from
• 1:46
  this. Now, a lot of people are looking
• 1:49
  for good sleep. So if you do get a really good
• 1:52
  night's sleep as a result of this or each time you listen,
• 1:55
  you find yourself drifting off to sleep, please put a comment
• 1:59
  when you get a chance because that will then give some kind of
• 2:02
  reassurance to other people that are also looking for good sleep.
• 2:07
  Now, I'm not going to have an outro at the end of this one.
• 2:10
  It's just going to be following this explanation.
• 2:13
  You're then going to hear the hypnosis.
• 2:14
  But if you do want a version of this, which is just the hypnosis
• 2:18
  and nothing else, there's two things you can do.
• 2:21
  You can either get a subscriber version of this through Spotify,
• 2:24
  which is just a few pence, a few cents a day, and you can access,
• 2:27
  you know, lots of hypnosis and just the hypnosis without the
• 2:31
  intro and the outro and the explanation.
• 2:34
  Or I have something called the Hypnotists Secret Circle, which
• 2:37
  is my archive of over 1000 hypnosis sessions.
• 2:40
  Again, it's just the hypnosis and you can actually download
• 2:43
  that and listen whenever is useful.
• 2:46
  And there's a whole section there about sleep, so look at
• 2:48
  the description for those. And if you like the idea of
• 2:52
  working with me directly, there will be a link to schedule a
• 2:55
  free 30 minute Zoom call. We'll have a chat and it might
• 2:58
  be that I work with you directly.
• 3:01
  But for now, find a quiet comfortable place, ideally your
• 3:04
  bed, and just relax and enjoy the session.
• 3:29
  a deep breath in, and as you breathe in, breathe in that
• 3:38
  feeling of calm and relaxation. And as you exhale, give
• 3:48
  permission to release. Release any feelings of tension,
• 3:57
  any stress, any worries. And not all at once, but every
• 4:05
  time you breathe out, give permission to release a bit
• 4:10
  more. And I wonder if you can scan
• 4:15
  your body for any clues of tension, tightness, heaviness,
• 4:25
  sometimes around the jaw, the neck or the shoulders as you
• 4:31
  breathe in. Imagine a colour that represents
• 4:35
  safety, security and relaxation. You decide the colour and
• 4:46
  imagine breathing in that color of safety, security and
• 4:51
  relaxation and imagine it goes in through your nose, down your
• 4:58
  windpipe, into your lungs. And just imagine your heart
• 5:04
  starts distributing that feeling of safety and relaxation to
• 5:11
  every cell in your body. And I want you to focus on where
• 5:21
  any tension, any resistance may be, imagine the color going to
• 5:28
  that part of your body and diluting it, releasing it.
• 5:37
  That's it. So that as you breathe out,
• 5:42
  imagine, imagine a darker color representing any tension, any
• 5:48
  worries, any insecurities just leaving your body as you breathe
• 5:55
  out. Consider this an emotional
• 6:02
  transfusion. As you breathe in that color of
• 6:07
  safety and relaxation, your body relaxes.
• 6:12
  And as you breathe out any tension and insecurities, your
• 6:18
  body can relax even more. As your body accepts that you
• 6:24
  are safe right here and right now.
• 6:32
  As you accept the suggestion that the safer you feel, the
• 6:38
  more relaxed you can be, and the more relaxed you can be, the
• 6:45
  safer you feel. A wonderful flywheel of ever
• 6:52
  increasing relaxation. I want you to imagine that your
• 6:59
  body feeling more and more relaxed stays where it is, but
• 7:07
  allow your imagination to go on an adventure.
• 7:15
  Imagine floating up out of your body, seeing yourself looking
• 7:21
  more and more relaxed with every breath, and allow your
• 7:25
  imagination to go on a vacation within your imagination.
• 7:37
  I want you to imagine what your unconscious believes is the
• 7:43
  safest city or place on the planet and just imagine floating
• 7:53
  to that place. Maybe you're floating over
• 7:58
  oceans, cities and deserts, and just imagine finding the safest
• 8:08
  place in the safest city. Maybe a resort, maybe a house.
• 8:18
  Or maybe perhaps you could imagine a palace, The kind of
• 8:26
  palace that royalty would stay in, protected with a perimeter
• 8:35
  fence, barbed wire, security guards and cameras.
• 8:42
  And maybe your unconscious would believe that with all of that
• 8:48
  security, that palace in the safest place in the world would
• 8:56
  feel very safe. So imagine floating there into
• 9:03
  that place. And I want you to imagine you
• 9:09
  are finding yourself inside. I want you to imagine you or one
• 9:17
  one of the top floors and you're seeing an impressive marble
• 9:23
  staircase. And this marble staircase takes
• 9:29
  you down a level, and on that level is a choice of three
• 9:37
  different bedrooms, each bedroom with a different bed, just like
• 9:44
  Goldilocks, able to choose what is most comfortable, most
• 9:50
  relaxing. But for now, you're at the top
• 9:55
  of the staircase, in the safest place, in the safest city.
• 10:02
  And very soon I will count down from 12:50.
• 10:10
  And with each descending number you will imagine descending the
• 10:14
  staircase, moving you from the conscious to the unconscious
• 10:19
  mind. With each descending number you
• 10:25
  will feel 10% deeper and deeper. Relax, particularly your
• 10:30
  eyelids, jaw, neck and shoulders. 10 Taking the first
• 10:35
  step down the staircase, immediately feeling more
• 10:40
  relaxed. 9 Another step down, jaw loosening, eyelids getting
• 10:49
  heavier. Eight, Another step down the
• 10:53
  staircase as you notice you're breathing in for longer and out
• 11:00
  for longer. That's it, 8 becomes 7.
• 11:06
  I don't need to see if you can detect your heartbeat or a
• 11:11
  pulse. There's a pulse in your wrist,
• 11:15
  your neck, or perhaps you can feel your heart beating and just
• 11:24
  allow that sound, that rhythm to be hypnotic, taking you deeper
• 11:32
  and deeper, relaxed. 7 becomes 6 now.
• 11:38
  Notice the heaviness, the looseness of your arms.
• 11:45
  Five halfway down the staircase, now drifting deeper and deeper
• 11:51
  down. 4 Now you become aware of a release of any sensations of
• 11:59
  worry. Anxiety may be in the chest, the
• 12:03
  gut, or somewhere else. Just allow it to leave your
• 12:07
  body. As four becomes 3.
• 12:12
  Just imagine dialing down and turning down the volume of any
• 12:18
  inner dialogue. That's it.
• 12:21
  No need for it here. 3 becomes 2 Feeling your legs limp, loose
• 12:27
  and heavy, and one the final step before 0 reaching one floor
• 12:35
  beneath. And I want you to feel like
• 12:41
  Goldilocks in a fairy tale. 3 bedrooms in the safest place in
• 12:49
  the safest city. Imagine 3 entirely different
• 12:54
  beds, and I want you to try them on to choose which bed would be
• 13:04
  the comfiest and the easiest to feel that you could drift off
• 13:10
  into a dreamlike sleep. And maybe one of them is a bit
• 13:16
  too firm, and maybe one of them is a bit too soft.
• 13:26
  But of the three rooms, when you find the room and the bed that
• 13:32
  feels the most comfortable, That's it.
• 13:46
  Now, lighting is important when drifting off to sleep.
• 13:49
  So just imagine the lighting is perfect to feel drowsy.
• 13:56
  And you felt drowsy before many times the time when the harder
• 14:03
  you tried to stay awake, the more drowsy you became.
• 14:07
  Maybe you were trying to read a book or look at something on
• 14:12
  your phone and you just couldn't hold it up.
• 14:17
  And I want you to reawaken that neural pathway, to feel that
• 14:20
  drowsy feel like you're sinking into that bed.
• 14:27
  And as you drift off into that dreamlike sleep, I want you to
• 14:35
  recall a time. A time when you felt so tired
• 14:45
  you couldn't stay awake. I want you to imagine that
• 14:50
  you're dreaming, that you're tired, somewhere else, somewhere
• 14:55
  more like your own home, maybe. It's been a few days that we're
• 15:01
  busy, and I want you to feel like you felt back then, Unable
• 15:09
  to keep your eyes open, a desire to yawn, a feeling that your
• 15:18
  head is just nodding off. I want you to imagine in your
• 15:27
  own bed, feeling that way, head on a pillow drifting off, so
• 15:36
  that you now access a dream within a dream.
• 15:45
  And I want you to imagine that in this dream.
• 15:49
  This is a dream of optimism. In this dream, you exist as a
• 16:00
  version of you that focuses on all the reasons why things will
• 16:07
  be fine. I want you to imagine navigating
• 16:12
  your life, dreaming that you're this version of you.
• 16:20
  When a worry or a thought comes up, you dismiss it instantly.
• 16:26
  I'll be fine. And more of that inner dialogue
• 16:32
  is focused on an absolute sense of confidence that everything
• 16:40
  will work out fine. I want you to imagine in this
• 16:45
  place, you've released some of the baggage of the past.
• 16:54
  When people grow up with chaos, they try and mitigate chaos with
• 17:00
  control. And I want you to feel that that
• 17:06
  can make someone highly resourceful, independent, highly
• 17:12
  accomplished. But it can also cause
• 17:16
  overthinking. And I want you to imagine in
• 17:21
  that dream, within a dream, within a dream, you find a
• 17:27
  control room, almost like you have access to how your brain
• 17:35
  works. And maybe you imagine that as a
• 17:39
  room with lots of dials and gauges, control panels and
• 17:45
  switches. And I want you to imagine
• 17:50
  walking into that control room. And I want you to see a dial
• 18:00
  with a switch that says thinking there in the middle,
• 18:07
  overthinking on the right and under, thinking on the left.
• 18:15
  And maybe you can imagine seeing that dial is set to
• 18:20
  overthinking, trying to second guess every eventuality.
• 18:28
  But as you recall from the past, a certain percentage of your
• 18:34
  worries, concerns and fears and insecurities never came to pass.
• 18:42
  And that doesn't mean you want to under think, but just dial it
• 18:48
  back to thinking. The time to mitigate risk is
• 18:57
  when you've got evidence that the risk is real, and when
• 19:04
  you've dialed that down to just normal everyday thinking.
• 19:10
  Let me know by nodding your head.
• 19:17
  And feel the shift in your body. And then I want you to see see a
• 19:27
  dial that represents optimism and pessimism.
• 19:33
  If pessimism is there to protect, which it is, it means
• 19:41
  focusing on everything that can go wrong.
• 19:46
  But I want you to imagine switching it all the way to
• 19:51
  optimism that you will assume that you will sleep well, you
• 19:58
  will assume that things will work out fine, and you will deal
• 20:03
  with problems as they arise, not ten moves in advance.
• 20:10
  Because life is not a game of chess.
• 20:15
  It makes sense to plan for the future, but not to pre empt
• 20:20
  every pitfall. So as you dial it all the way up
• 20:25
  to optimism, I want you to see a screen there in that control
• 20:32
  room and I want you to see what your future looks like with a
• 20:40
  mind that looks for how things can all work out fine.
• 20:48
  See yourself with a more relaxed facial expression.
• 20:54
  See yourself preparing for an interview, but not over
• 20:58
  preparing. See yourself with that kind of
• 21:07
  mentality that whatever life brings you, you'll make the most
• 21:13
  of it and it will all work out fine.
• 21:18
  Because sometimes humans have a tendency to put way too much
• 21:27
  pressure on themselves, and then they feel guilty if they're not
• 21:34
  living up to those high expectations, anxious if they
• 21:40
  can't control what is out of their control.
• 21:44
  But in this optimistic future, I want you to imagine yourself
• 21:52
  with someone with the expression.
• 21:54
  Then things will be fine. And if they're not, you'll deal
• 21:58
  with him. A pragmatic optimist.
• 22:05
  And I want you to see in that version of you how much better
• 22:09
  that version of you sleeps, rather than thinking of
• 22:15
  everything that might not work out.
• 22:20
  That version of you assumes that everything's going to be fine.
• 22:29
  And I want you to see that version of you sleeping for
• 22:31
  longer. I want you to see that version
• 22:36
  of you that reminds you, a version of you that even if it
• 22:40
  was just for a few days, was almost sleeping too much.
• 22:47
  And then imagine drifting into the screen and feeling what it
• 22:50
  would feel like to have that level of optimism, overthinking
• 22:56
  dialed all the way down to normal thinking.
• 23:00
  And just imagine getting ready to go to bed in your bed in your
• 23:08
  reality. A dream within a dream within a
• 23:14
  dream within a dream. Imagine it's 10 minutes before
• 23:21
  bedtime. Imagine there's a ritual getting
• 23:27
  ready. Imagine the lighting, the
• 23:34
  temperature and it sounds and feel what it would feel like to
• 23:42
  be about to have the best night's sleep you've ever had.
• 23:50
  Imagine wearing whatever you'd be wearing.
• 23:54
  Imagine your head on a pillow, how thick the covers are, how
• 23:59
  soft the mattress is, and just imagine what it would be like to
• 24:09
  have the kind of sleep where you deep sleep.
• 24:15
  Or instead of waking up drained, you wake up recharged and
• 24:18
  rejuvenated. Where you wake up with so much
• 24:21
  energy that you don't need caffeine because you've got so
• 24:26
  much energy anyway. Imagine that kind of sleep.
• 24:34
  And very soon I will count from 1:00 to 10:00.
• 24:43
  If you're listening this and there is no intention to sleep
• 24:47
  at this time, then when I count from 1:00 to 10:00, you will
• 24:53
  awaken. But you will recreate this
• 24:56
  feeling of relaxation, drowsiness, and an optimistic
• 25:02
  idea that you will have incredible sleep the very next
• 25:07
  time you find your head resting on a pillow with your eyes
• 25:14
  closed. But if you're listening to this
• 25:19
  and your head is already on the pillow and your eyes are already
• 25:25
  closed, then when I count from one to 10, it will simply take
• 25:32
  you deeper and more relaxed to that place where you will
• 25:40
  indulge in deep, rejuvenating sleep and only awaken when it is
• 25:48
  time to awaken. Starting to count 123, 456789
• 26:09
  and 10.
