Hypnotic Scrambler to Update Nerves Sending False Pain Signals · The Hypnotist

  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.
• 0:40
  Hi, it's Adam here and you're about to listen to a hypnosis
• 0:43
  session all about pain or perhaps just UN useful signals
• 0:49
  that you experience in your body.
• 0:51
  And I think the best example of this phenomenon is something
• 0:54
  called phantom limb syndrome. And that's where someone might
• 0:58
  have had an amputation, maybe they were in an accident,
• 1:01
  they've lost an arm or a leg, and yet it still feels itchy or
• 1:04
  tickly and sometimes even painful.
• 1:07
  And that's because the neural pathways that know how to
• 1:11
  experience those kind of things still exist, even if the limb
• 1:15
  itself doesn't. Now, I was working with someone
• 1:18
  that had particular painful sensations in their face and it
• 1:24
  was something similar because they had had all of the
• 1:27
  neurological investigations and there was no underlying cause.
• 1:31
  So we can call this false positives.
• 1:33
  It was nerves and neurons firing off to create the sensation of
• 1:38
  pain even though it wasn't useful.
• 1:41
  And they had experienced some electrode therapy called
• 1:44
  scrambler therapy, which was designed to reset their nerves.
• 1:49
  Now this is a hypnotic metaphor version of that.
• 1:52
  It's not designed to be scrambler therapy.
• 1:54
  It's designed to do something that is similar on the basis
• 1:59
  that what we're doing is we are having the core suggestion that
• 2:03
  nerves can have false positives, but almost to re educate and
• 2:08
  teach the nerves how to actually experience other sensations and
• 2:12
  scramble the pattern of false firing of pain.
• 2:16
  So I would say this is going to be useful if you've got chronic
• 2:20
  pain or just random sensations that don't seem to have any
• 2:25
  actual cause other than the random firing of nerves.
• 2:30
  So if you can relate to that, you might get some benefit of
• 2:32
  this session. Obviously this client had the
• 2:34
  sensations around their face and their mouth, so therefore if
• 2:39
  your pain is somewhere else, just disregard those suggestions
• 2:42
  about the mouth and make it relevant to wherever you feel
• 2:46
  pain in your body. This is not designed to be a
• 2:50
  substitute for medical treatment.
• 2:53
  This is only if you've had confirmation that there is no
• 2:56
  actual medical problem there and it's just chronic pain or false
• 3:01
  pain, in which case you might get some value from this.
• 3:03
  But definitely speak to your doctor about that.
• 3:06
  And if you like the idea of working with me directly or
• 3:09
  having a bespoke session for your particular issue, I would
• 3:13
  encourage you to look in the description, book the free
• 3:16
  consultation called and we'll have a chat over Zoom because it
• 3:19
  might be that I'm the right hypnotherapist to work with you.
• 3:23
  For now though, you might get some value from this session, so
• 3:25
  find a quiet, comfortable place where you're not going to be.
• 3:28
  Disturbed. Relax.
• 3:30
  And enjoy the session. Take a deep breath in, and as
• 4:00
  you breathe in, breathe in that feeling of calm and relaxation,
• 4:07
  and as you exhale, feel that feeling of release, as if any
• 4:15
  feeling of tension, worry or anxiety is starting to melt away
• 4:23
  and feel like it's leaving your body.
• 4:26
  In your outward breath, breathing in, relaxation and
• 4:34
  exhaling tension. And notice your eyelids feeling
• 4:39
  heavier and more relaxed. And with your eyes closed,
• 4:43
  notice how much easier it becomes to focus on the sound of
• 4:52
  my voice as you breathe in relaxation and exhale tension,
• 5:01
  each breath taking you deeper and deeper, relaxed.
• 5:08
  And the deeper you breathe, the more relaxed you become.
• 5:14
  And the more relaxed you become, the deeper you breathe.
• 5:20
  And as your physical body relaxes, particularly around
• 5:25
  your jaw, your imagination awakens.
• 5:31
  And I want you to imagine a lovely relaxing flight being one
• 5:40
  of those large, comfortable recline chairs.
• 5:46
  And I want you to notice how easy it was to feel comfortable
• 5:51
  back then. And just imagine you're back in
• 5:55
  that chair on your way to a place you want to get to.
• 6:06
  And I want you to make an evaluation.
• 6:12
  The reason you're able to relax and enjoy that flight, it's
• 6:18
  because there's nothing you have to or need to do.
• 6:24
  Someone else is flying, someone else is organizing.
• 6:30
  All you need to do is relax. And you have complete trust,
• 6:37
  faith, and confidence in all of those variables that you're not
• 6:43
  in control of. And what you are in control of
• 6:50
  is those things that you can do while you're on that chair and
• 6:58
  you can watch a movie, you could read a book, you could eat some
• 7:06
  food or drink a drink, or just drift off into a dreamlike
• 7:12
  sleep. I want you to imagine you're
• 7:16
  about to drift off in a dreamlike sleep as I count
• 7:22
  downwards from 5:00 to 1:00, with each descending number
• 7:28
  enabling you to drift off in what feels like a dreamlike
• 7:32
  sleep. 5, just releasing all the tension in your face.
• 7:39
  And then four, your neck and shoulders just feels limp and
• 7:43
  loose. And then three, your arms and
• 7:46
  legs. Just imagine they feel so limp
• 7:49
  and loose and heavy, like the limbs of a puppet with no
• 7:52
  strings. And then two, as you breathe in,
• 7:58
  all of your internal organs relax your lungs, your heart,
• 8:03
  your stomach, everything inside releases any pent up tension.
• 8:11
  And one, feel a ripple of relaxation from the top of your
• 8:14
  head down to your toes, all the way back up and then to the tips
• 8:17
  of your fingers. As you can imagine, drifting off
• 8:23
  into that dream like sleep, that's it.
• 8:34
  Deeper and deeper, relaxed, perhaps noticing the rhythm of
• 8:45
  your breathing, rising up and falling.
• 8:53
  That's it. And as you arrive in this
• 9:01
  dreamlike sleep, in this deep, calm place, I want you to
• 9:08
  imagine a different type of chair, something a bit more
• 9:14
  medical or professional. And I want you to imagine you're
• 9:24
  being presented with some soft golden pads of pure light,
• 9:34
  almost like they're electrodes of pure energy.
• 9:40
  Than as you sit on that professional chair, I want you
• 9:45
  to feel that these pads are attached around your mouth,
• 9:55
  either side of your nose. But these aren't metal and no
• 10:00
  wires, just glowing pads of healing light.
• 10:08
  And they are not placed on any specific part of pain, but
• 10:14
  around it, surrounding it, enclosing it in a safe field of
• 10:22
  comfort. And I want you to see a
• 10:27
  professional with the ability to send energy to those pads, and
• 10:36
  those pads will activate. It will fire off certain nerves
• 10:47
  as a way of recalibrating and resetting and training all of
• 10:52
  the nerves around your mouth. And as they rest there, those
• 11:00
  glowing pads, they begin to awaken.
• 11:06
  And each one of those pants is carrying a different kind of
• 11:10
  soothing message. And you know those nerves
• 11:20
  beneath the skin haven't been firing right?
• 11:25
  Because sometimes they've given you pain and sometimes other
• 11:29
  strange sensations, sometimes static, sometimes moving,
• 11:36
  sometimes odd and mild, and sometimes deeply uncomfortable.
• 11:45
  But now, each time a pain signal tries to rise up, I want you to
• 11:52
  imagine it being intercepted by these golden glowing pads.
• 12:00
  And their job is to scramble, overwrite and reset these faulty
• 12:07
  firing neurons, these nerves that are sending signals they
• 12:12
  shouldn't. Consider them trainers, training
• 12:20
  your nervous system to send the right signals at the right time
• 12:28
  to replace any pain with new non pain information.
• 12:37
  I want you to imagine the old harsh static fades and in its
• 12:43
  place comes something new, something gentle and something
• 12:48
  healing. And I want you to think of five
• 12:54
  pairs of these golden pads, these emotional electrodes.
• 13:02
  And the first pair begin to flow, sending the gentle warmth
• 13:07
  of the sun on your skin as if you're standing in spring
• 13:12
  sunshine. And I want you to imagine that
• 13:17
  sensation all over your face and around your mouth.
• 13:21
  Soft, calm, soothing warmth, reminding your nerves what
• 13:29
  comfort feels like. And then and the second pair
• 13:36
  awakens, sending the refreshing coolness of cool, refreshing
• 13:45
  water on your skin. And you could imagine a cold
• 13:49
  shower, a swimming pool or perhaps even a mountain stream
• 13:57
  and just imagine it washing away discomfort, leaving only
• 14:03
  clarity, purity and ease. And then feel like the third
• 14:13
  pair are switching on. They're starting to glow,
• 14:17
  bringing the sensation of silky softness brushing across your
• 14:22
  skin. Imagine the colour of a
• 14:26
  particular type of very soft silk, smooth and gentle,
• 14:34
  brushing across perhaps your cheek, your lips, close to your
• 14:40
  nose, as this feels like it's training your nerves to notice
• 14:46
  these delicate sensations. But allow this soft silk to
• 14:53
  remind your body of safety, of tenderness, of calm touch.
• 15:05
  And then the fourth pair activates.
• 15:07
  Now they're starting to glow, and that carries the signal of a
• 15:13
  crisp, refreshing taste of mint. And that might be a mint sweet.
• 15:21
  It could be a mint leaf, or it could be a flavour of dessert or
• 15:28
  ice cream. But I want you to imagine that
• 15:32
  taste again is updating and calibrating those nerves
• 15:40
  beneath. Cool, clean, energizing.
• 15:44
  A reminder that your mouth and your nerves and your body can
• 15:49
  feel light and refreshed. And then I want you to imagine
• 15:58
  the 5th bear hair begins to pulse, and this one feels like a
• 16:06
  gentle heartbeat, a pulsation, a rocking cradle.
• 16:14
  And sometimes you can feel a pulse somewhere in your body,
• 16:18
  sometimes your neck, your wrist, or somewhere else.
• 16:25
  But I want you to imagine training your brain to look for
• 16:29
  these subtle pulses within your skin, your tongue, or around
• 16:37
  your mouth. Consider the pulsation almost
• 16:45
  like a lighthouse. Steady, regular, reassuring,
• 16:53
  reminding you of balance, stability and peace.
• 16:59
  And then imagine all of these five pairs of golden pads all
• 17:06
  working together, and whenever an old pain message or a strange
• 17:14
  sensation message comes up, their job is to scramble it,
• 17:19
  confuse it, collide memories of other sensations of feelings to
• 17:26
  train it so that it replaces it with new signals of comfort and
• 17:33
  normal sensations. And I want you to imagine that
• 17:40
  whenever you come back to this, it will build on any previous
• 17:47
  experiences of scrambling to update nerves and neural
• 17:53
  pathways. Because if a person without an
• 17:59
  arm can imagine the sensation of a tickle or an itch on an arm
• 18:05
  that doesn't exist, then it means that you can experience
• 18:12
  pain in your mouth and your tongue that doesn't belong
• 18:17
  there. It is not the mouth or the
• 18:20
  tongue or the lips that's the problem, just the message going
• 18:26
  from brain to body. And I want you to feel that this
• 18:31
  is resetting at all because you already have the neural pathways
• 18:38
  to know how to have proportionate sensations.
• 18:44
  You should only have pain if you accidentally eat or drink
• 18:49
  something way too hot or bite your tongue without realizing.
• 18:57
  These are justifiable reasons for pain.
• 19:01
  Any other pain is a false signal and these glowing pads will
• 19:08
  scramble those false signals, training you to only receive
• 19:15
  real signals. Each wave of non pain
• 19:21
  information teaches the nerves what is true and what is real
• 19:29
  and that your body can feel safe and that your mouth can feel
• 19:34
  normal. That you no longer need pain to
• 19:38
  protect you. And with each signal, your
• 19:43
  nervous system learns and relearns until the new pattern
• 19:49
  becomes the natural one. But before you leave this
• 19:57
  professional chair, but after all the glowing pads have been
• 20:03
  removed, I want you to imagine another chair close by.
• 20:11
  And it's time to invite someone in that it would benefit your
• 20:16
  health and well-being to forgive that person.
• 20:23
  The forgiveness isn't for them, it's for you.
• 20:28
  And in forgiving, you get to release any anger, resentment,
• 20:34
  frustration of the past. So imagine that person there in
• 20:39
  that chair, and they don't have to say anything, but you can let
• 20:47
  them know that you forgive them. And when you say it, it feels
• 20:59
  like you mean it. And when you mean it, you get to
• 21:03
  release. And what if you release just one
• 21:09
  toxic emotion that has been causing all of this?
• 21:15
  Well then it's worth it, as the more of these heavy and useful
• 21:21
  emotions you carry, the more you can interfere with good health.
• 21:29
  And as you forgive them, you might see an expression on them,
• 21:35
  maybe relief, maybe gratitude, maybe ambivalence.
• 21:41
  Their reaction isn't important, it's your decision to do it
• 21:47
  that's important. And each time you visit you can
• 21:53
  change the person or change what you're forgiving them for.
• 21:58
  But every time you get to release something holding you
• 22:04
  back or interfering with the quality of your life, they then
• 22:15
  leave. You feel a sense of retraining
• 22:21
  your nerves and releasing an emotion.
• 22:26
  And then imagine finding yourself back on that aeroplane
• 22:29
  just as it's about to touchdown. But it's touching down to a
• 22:36
  future that's desirable for you. Better quality of life,
• 22:42
  experiencing more of the pleasurable emotions and less of
• 22:45
  the ones you don't, and feeling a new sense of balance between
• 22:53
  acceptance and control. And as you depart the plane,
• 22:59
  find yourself returning back to your present.
• 23:02
  Taking a deep breath in through your nose and out through your
• 23:06
  nose. Just wiggle your fingers and
• 23:09
  wiggle your toes as I now count from 1:00 to 10:00 to awaken you
• 23:15
  starting to count 123 waking up 456 more alert 7-8 open your
• 23:24
  eyes. Open your eyes, 910 wide awake,
• 23:28
  wide awake, wide awake. Thank you so much for joining me
• 23:36

  You may know of one other friend or family member that may also
• 23:49
  benefit from this hypnosis session, In which case I'd like
• 23:53
  to ask a favor of you. And that is if you could spend
• 23:56
  10 seconds to share this episode with someone that you know, that
• 24:01
  may also benefit. That would really help me to
• 24:04
  access new people that don't already know about this show.
