  These recordings took place live from Adam's clinic in London's

  This recording is not suitable for those with epilepsy or
• 0:30
  severe mental health issues, so get yourself comfortable and
• 0:34

• 0:41
  Hi, it's Adam here. And in today's episode of The
• 0:44
  Hypnotist, you're going to be listening to a weight loss
• 0:47
  hypnosis session with a bit of A twist.
• 0:49
  And that twist is that this is less about changing what you eat
• 0:54
  and a lot more about finding the fun, excitement, and perhaps
• 0:59
  even freedom that comes from physical activities.
• 1:03
  And a lot of people make the idea of being physically active.
• 1:08
  Seem like a. Chore seem like it's a dread by
• 1:11
  calling it exercise and. They get.
• 1:15
  Flashbacks of when they were at school doing, you know, jogging
• 1:19
  or running in the rain and horrible things.
• 1:22
  So this is designed to create a feeling of wanting to be more
• 1:30
  active because of how it makes you feel.
• 1:34
  And I was working with a client that.
• 1:36
  When they. Considered themselves at their
• 1:39
  fittest and in their ideal body shape.
• 1:41
  It was. At a time when they were doing
• 1:43
  lots of horse riding and the physicality of traipsing around
• 1:49
  and galloping around on horses meant that they.
• 1:52
  Were physically. In a good shape, but they didn't
• 1:55
  have the time to be on horses now because that.
• 1:58
  Was a different. Time in their life, but they had
• 2:02
  tried to do gym memberships and personal trainers and it felt
• 2:07
  like it was something they should do, but they didn't
• 2:09
  really want to do so. This takes that concept and
• 2:13
  plays with time. So there's a regression to a
• 2:16
  resourceful state. There's future pacing to when
• 2:19
  they have that really desirable body shape that they want for an
• 2:23
  upcoming holiday in their future.
• 2:25
  And then they figure out what would have needed to have
• 2:28
  happened for them to naturally have that body shape.
• 2:30
  And that might be swimming or walking more or jogging or going
• 2:35
  to the gym or finding a class. They like something that it
• 2:39
  becomes a way of taking something that is positive and
• 2:45
  then amplifying it. That already made changes with
• 2:48
  reducing alcohol, so this suggestion about a chain
• 2:52
  reaction is designed. To take the.
• 2:55
  Progress they've already made and.
• 2:57
  Use that. To create momentum, to make even
• 3:02
  more positive changes. And I think one of the most
• 3:04
  wonderful things to think about a change in your life.
• 3:07
  You can just look at a change as a change, or you can look at a
• 3:11
  change as the start of a chain reaction.
• 3:14
  And when it has that ability to really, one thing leads to
• 3:19
  another, leads to another, almost like a row of dominoes
• 3:21
  going down. That's when you know people that
• 3:23
  haven't seen you for a year or two are just shocked at the
• 3:27
  level of change that can take place.
• 3:29
  And not because of one change, but because that one change led
• 3:32
  to another change led to another.
• 3:34
  And that's what creates these incredible transformations.
• 3:37
  So if you like the idea of embarking on a physical
• 3:41
  transformation, and maybe in different ways as well, I think
• 3:44
  this idea of a chain reaction could be quite helpful.
• 3:49
  And even better, if you have some kind of summer holiday
• 3:52
  booked later this year, or you know the kind of place that
• 3:55
  you're going to be, you can start imagining yourself already
• 3:58
  being that body shape as always it was.
• 4:02
  Created. For a specific individual, you
• 4:04
  might not have an affinity with horse riding, or the change you
• 4:08
  might want to make might not be because of physical activity, it
• 4:12
  might come from dietary changes. So if you do want something a
• 4:15
  bit more bespoke to you and your individual needs, there will be
• 4:18
  a link in the show notes where you can schedule that
• 4:20
  consultation. Call to explore.
• 4:21
  Working with me for now though. Find a quiet, comfortable place
• 4:25
  where you won't be disturbed. Relax and enjoy the session.
• 5:04
  Take a deep. Breath.
• 5:07
  In And as you breathe in, breathe in that feeling of
• 5:13
  relaxation. And as you exhale, just allow
• 5:16
  your eyelids to close. And as they close, scan your
• 5:22
  body for any feelings of tension and allow it to release.
• 5:29
  And when you breathe in, breathe in slightly longer and deeper.
• 5:34
  And as you exhale, allow that outward breath to continue a
• 5:41
  little bit longer than it normally would, so that as you
• 5:46
  breathe in and breathe down, each breath ever so slightly
• 5:53
  longer than the last, breathing in resourcefulness, exhaling
• 5:59
  tension, and give yourself a sense of acknowledgement for the
• 6:10
  progress you've already made. I want you to get a sense then.
• 6:22
  A change can just be a change, but a change can also be the
• 6:30
  beginning of a chain reaction. Only to use the power of your
• 6:39
  imagination to imagine a big long line of dominoes and then
• 6:48
  imagine a single solitary domino all by itself.
• 6:57
  And imagine tipping over that single solitary domino.
• 7:02
  And it's just that one domino falls and everything continues
• 7:09
  as it was. But as you breathe in and
• 7:14
  breathe out, imagine what would happen if that line of dominoes
• 7:22
  had that first domino flipped over.
• 7:29
  The first domino hits the second, hits the third.
• 7:34
  Imagine an incredible chain reaction that was only possible
• 7:40
  because of that very first domino.
• 7:48
  And what if a change you've already made isn't a blip, isn't
• 7:56
  A1 off, but the start of the most wonderful chain reaction,
• 8:02
  taking your life and your future to wonderful, positive and
• 8:07
  empowering places? What if the 17th domino that
• 8:13
  falls is someone you love doing something different because they
• 8:19
  were inspired by you? But that 17th domino only fell
• 8:28
  because of the 1st and then the second.
• 8:34
  Every good decision, every positive change could be the
• 8:39
  very next domino in that chain reaction.
• 8:46
  Breathe in and breathe out and allow your imagination to take
• 8:49
  you to countryside on a spring or summer's day that you
• 8:57
  remember from your childhood. I want you to return to that
• 9:06
  childhood countryside at your current age, but I want you to
• 9:13
  see someone that looks just like you riding on a horse.
• 9:24
  If you could imagine that, let me know by nodding your head and
• 9:30
  just observe. Observe the emotion of that
• 9:36
  younger version of you on that horse.
• 9:40
  Maybe they look relaxed and free.
• 9:44
  Maybe they're smiling. Maybe there's a sense of peace
• 9:49
  or calm. Maybe they're with someone, a
• 9:57
  friend. I want you to get a sense this
• 10:07
  is reconnaissance for you. I want you to get a sense that
• 10:13
  when certain ingredients are there, doing something physical
• 10:20
  is not a chore, it's a pleasure. It's not something you should
• 10:27
  do, it's something you can't wait to do.
• 10:30
  And on that spring or summer day, just imagine seeing the
• 10:38
  blue skies, feeling the warmth of the sun on your skin, and
• 10:45
  feeling that it's helping you to melt away any tension, any
• 10:50
  stresses. I want you to get a sense that
• 10:59
  all of those feelings that you had back then are possible,
• 11:04
  possible for you now and in the moment.
• 11:08
  And I want you to imagine feeling what it would feel like
• 11:11
  to step into that version of you where you now feel like you're
• 11:18
  that age, roaming around the countryside, maybe even
• 11:25
  galloping. Feel the wind on your face, the
• 11:33
  rhythm, the movement, a wonderful sense of freedom, of
• 11:38
  fun, of excitement. Your heart was racing sometimes,
• 11:48
  but you didn't notice. Your muscles were getting
• 11:53
  stronger, but that was never the point.
• 11:59
  I want you to get a sense then when you naturally become fit
• 12:05
  and strong and healthy, it's because it was the side effect
• 12:10
  of what you were doing, not the function.
• 12:15
  But if it feels like you're reconnecting with that sense of
• 12:19
  activity, freedom, enjoyment, you know by nodding your head
• 12:29
  and sometimes you were in a state of flow, you were able to
• 12:37
  do things without even thinking about it.
• 12:44
  You may have even been galloping fast and daydreaming at the same
• 12:48
  time because your mind and body knew how to ride that horse, so
• 12:55
  you didn't even need to think about it.
• 12:57
  And some people call this unconscious competence, the
• 13:08
  ability to do something well without even trying.
• 13:15
  But it didn't start that way. You can recall the very first
• 13:20
  time you got onto a horse and it felt daunting, intimidating.
• 13:27
  You weren't sure what to do, but you stuck with it.
• 13:31
  And that awkward feeling of being judged, not knowing what
• 13:37
  to do, very quickly became a feeling of confidence.
• 13:45
  You trusted yourself to do it well, and what if there's other
• 13:53
  things now in your present like that?
• 13:57
  That only feel awkward. Because they're slightly outside
• 14:00
  of your comfort zone. What if the goal is to feel
• 14:05
  comfortable enough till you can do them without thinking?
• 14:11
  But first, let's visit a future. I want you to imagine drifting
• 14:17
  forwards in time, beyond the present, into the very next
• 14:23
  summer. But this time I want you to
• 14:27
  imagine that you're observing your future self like you're
• 14:29
  someone else. And I want you to see them on
• 14:38
  holiday, perhaps by a pool, by a beach, wearing the clothes that
• 14:48
  reveal a strong, healthy, athletic body.
• 14:53
  I want you to see yourself with the kind of body shape that you
• 15:01
  would be proud of, that you would feel confident in, that
• 15:06
  would give you a sense of sky high self esteem.
• 15:11
  And when you can see that future version of you with that body
• 15:15
  shape that is desirable for you, let me know by nodding your
• 15:20
  head. I want you to get a sense that
• 15:26
  this is not wishful thinking. What if this is the consequence
• 15:36
  of two or three decisions and the lag time that follows?
• 15:45
  A decision to reduce or eliminate alcohol would mean
• 15:50
  thousands of empty calories are no longer consumed.
• 15:53
  A desire to go to the gym two or three times a week would change
• 16:02
  your body composition. Finding something active and fun
• 16:12
  would mean that your body composition changes, fat is
• 16:19
  reduced and muscle is increased, not as the intention, but as the
• 16:24
  side effect. And I want you to see that
• 16:28
  future version of you, if just two or three things change,
• 16:36
  things that you enjoy doing and also help you to become fitter,
• 16:43
  healthier and stronger. And then step into that future
• 16:49
  version of you. Feel how much more energy you
• 16:54
  have, how much stronger you feel.
• 16:57
  And imagine staring into a full length mirror and smiling as
• 17:06
  that inner dialogue says something complimentary about
• 17:10
  yourself. And you know it's true.
• 17:15
  Not an affirmation, an evaluation.
• 17:20
  You are evaluating that you've made some changes and this is
• 17:26
  your reward for those changes. And if it feels like this is a
• 17:34
  desirable but also possible future, let me know about
• 17:39
  nodding your head. And as you look at yourself in
• 17:44
  the mirror, I want you to think, what simple things did you do
• 17:51
  that led to this body? Imagine travelling through time.
• 17:55
  You're now in your future, thinking back to the very simple
• 18:00
  things you did to create this body shape.
• 18:07
  Maybe you rejoined the gym. Maybe you found a personal
• 18:11
  trainer. Maybe you discovered an exercise
• 18:16
  class that you had so much fun doing.
• 18:22
  Maybe you started swimming once or twice a week.
• 18:26
  Or maybe you decided to watch certain TV shows while you're on
• 18:35
  a cardio machine. I don't want you to get a sense
• 18:39
  that you don't need to do all of these things.
• 18:44
  Just finding one or two things that are fun, enjoyable kind of
• 18:51
  things you can do regularly until it becomes just a part of
• 18:57
  a routine, a habit, something that harnesses your nature to be
• 19:04
  a creature of habit. But now have it work for you
• 19:08
  rather than against you. And if you can think of maybe
• 19:13
  one or two things that would make this body shape inevitable,
• 19:21
  let me know by nodding your head.
• 19:26
  And as you think back, I want you to think of the moment that
• 19:30
  something changed. A fear of judgement suddenly led
• 19:38
  to a point where you couldn't care less.
• 19:45
  You were going to do that thing anyway.
• 19:50
  Finding something magical happened that the moment you
• 19:55
  decided to simply not care of the opinions of other people,
• 20:03
  you made the very thing more fun, more free, more desirable
• 20:10
  for you. Nobody would want to lose weight
• 20:15
  or get strong if it was a miserable journey.
• 20:20
  I want you to recall that when you were horse riding regularly,
• 20:25
  you had a great physique as a side effect of being active
• 20:32
  regularly and therefore that is the winning formula.
• 20:40
  Not to miserably lose weight, but to train your body to adapt
• 20:47
  while enjoying the process. Give yourself permission to do
• 20:52
  that as you imagine drifting back to the present, thinking
• 20:58
  about what you will do in the next few days, that could
• 21:06
  represent the second or third domino in that chain reaction.
• 21:10
  And when you know exactly what you would do, let me know by
• 21:15
  nodding your head. That's it.
• 21:22
  So take that thought, turn it into a decision, and figure out
• 21:27
  what you would do to implement that decision, enabling your
• 21:32
  chain reaction to continue. But it's time to return fully to
• 21:41
  the present. No longer in the future, no
• 21:43
  longer in the past, completely in the here and now.
• 21:47
  So take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your
• 21:51
  nose. Just wiggle your fingers and
• 21:54
  wiggle your toes. Start to calibrate with the here
• 21:56
  and now as I now count from 1:00 to 10:00 to awaken you.
• 22:03
  Starting to count 123 waking up 456 more alert 7-8.
• 22:10
  Open your eyes. Open your eyes 910.
• 22:13
  Wide awake, wide awake, wide awake.
