0:07
issues. Brought to you by the
0:10
hypnotherapist, demanded by celebrities, CEOs and even
0:14
royalty. Adam Cox.
0:16
These recordings took place live from Adam's clinic in London's
0:19
world famous Harley Street. This podcast features powerful
0:23
hypnosis, so do not listen while driving or operating machinery.
0:27
This recording is not suitable for those with epilepsy or
0:30
severe mental health issues, so get yourself comfortable and
0:34
enjoy today's episode of The Hypnotist.
0:41
Hi, it's Adam here. And in this hypnosis session,
0:44
you're going to be listening to a hypnosis that is all about
0:48
intrusive thoughts, particularly thoughts connected to anxiety
0:54
and past events, but also doubts as well.
0:58
And I was working with a client that had a lot of intrusive
1:01
thoughts, and those intrusive thoughts were spiralling into
1:05
emotions like anxiety, and that anxiety was then causing more
1:09
intrusive thoughts. And what you're going to hear in
1:13
this particular session is a lot of metaphor to help frame the
1:18
thoughts as something that they're in control of, but also
1:23
that sometimes thoughts are useful.
1:25
They're messengers for really important, useful information.
1:29
There's also elements of boundary setting.
1:32
And the particular client that I was working with had thoughts
1:36
related to their past, but that past events had already been
1:41
expressed, communicated, acknowledged, forgiven.
1:44
The slate was already wiped clean, but they were the ones
1:47
bringing these thoughts back. And therefore you're going to
1:50
hear 2 metaphors of fortress walls, not just walls or fences,
1:55
but fortress walls because that's perceived to be
1:58
impenetrable. So that any thought that comes
2:02
up from a past, if it's before 2 certain timelines each
2:06
representing this fortress wall, then it doesn't get to infect
2:10
their future. I would say this is going to be
2:13
really useful for someone that is haunting themself with
2:17
thoughts connected to past events or tends to have a lot of
2:22
overthinking or intrusive thoughts that are tied to very
2:26
intense, unuseful or unpleasant emotions.
2:30
Because a lot of these metaphors will work for whoever you are.
2:34
There is a reference here to a proposal.
2:37
That's because the client had proposed to their partner, and
2:40
that represents the timeline of the closest fortress wall.
2:44
It's unlikely that you've had a recent proposal and therefore
2:48
you could ignore that suggestion, but that's why it's
2:51
included in this particular session.
2:54
Obviously the nature of this session is that it's all about
2:58
reducing intrusive thoughts, dialing down anxiety, but it was
3:02
created for a very specific individual in very specific
3:05
circumstances. And on that basis, if you feel
3:08
that you would benefit from a more tailored, bespoke session
3:13
specific to your needs, there will be a link in the
3:16
description in the show notes where you can schedule a
3:20
completely free consultation call to explore working with me.
3:24
And there's also some other resources there as well like
3:26
suitability tests and free downloads and even a free seven
3:30
day course. But in order to get the best out
3:33
of this session, I would encourage you to find a quiet,
3:37
comfortable place, ideally in a kind of environment where you're
3:40
not going to be disturbed or interrupted, and justice, relax
3:43
and enjoy the session. None.
5:17
Take a deep breath in, and as you breathe in, breathe in that
5:23
resourceful feeling of calm and relaxation.
5:28
And as you exhale, just allow any feelings of stress and
5:33
tension to feel like they're slowly leaving your body in your
5:38
outward breath, breathing in. And on the next outward breath,
5:44
just allow your eyelids to completely relaxed.
5:49
And notice with your eyes closed how much easier it is to focus
5:56
on the sound of my voice. As you continue to breathe in
6:01
for deeper and exhale for longer, that's in.
6:12
As you breathe in and breathe out, maybe feel your shoulders
6:16
drop, any muscles around your jaw start to loosen, and get
6:22
permission for your mind just beginning to drift in through
6:30
the nose and out through the nose.
6:36
That's in releasing tension, just like mist dissolving.
6:45
And I want you to become aware of your feet.
6:49
Just notice them, maybe if they're connected to the ground.
6:54
Just feel that sensation of weight, feeling safe, supported,
7:01
anchored. And that sense of support
7:05
spreads upwards from your feet, through your calves into your
7:11
thighs and your hips. Each breath out a signal that
7:18
right now, in this moment, you have full permission to just let
7:25
go. And so your back relaxes, the
7:30
muscles in your chests, often anything around your neck, your
7:35
shoulders just melts away any tension as your attention begins
7:40
to drift inwards. That's right, Breathing in
7:47
relaxation, exhaling tension. And the deeper you breathe, the
7:53
more relaxed you become. And the more relaxed you become,
7:57
the deeper you breathe. Each breath takes you deeper and
8:01
deeper, relaxed. And as your body relaxes, your
8:06
imagination awakens. That's it.
8:10
And I want you to get a sense that sometimes the mind can feel
8:16
like it's on high alert, like a radar searching for threats.
8:24
But I want you to get a sense that right now there are no
8:28
threats, only peace, only stillness.
8:36
I want you to get a sense that in a state of emergency, it
8:42
makes sense to be on high alert. But why would you be on high
8:47
alert if now was the time to let everything dial down?
8:57
And I want you to imagine a switchboard or a control room in
9:01
your mind with many dials and buttons.
9:06
And I want you to see a particular button or dial
9:11
labeled alert level. And I want you to imagine your
9:18
hand reaching out and gently turning it down from red alert
9:25
to amber, from amber to yellow, and then all the way down to a
9:33
soft green. I want you to get a sense that
9:37
your body is responding to this change in alert level.
9:44
And what if all of these recent high alert feelings were linked
9:51
to a particular life decision that you made to make sure that
9:56
you were ready to make that decision?
10:00
But now you've made that decision, the high alert is no
10:05
longer needed. And just feel that it's dialed
10:08
all the way down. Allow your body to feel safe and
10:15
allow your mind to feel relaxed. And in the timeline of your
10:23
life, there is a powerful moment, like a line drawn in the
10:30
sand. I want you to visualize the
10:36
moment you proposed and the moment they said yes.
10:42
And I want you to get a sense that as you observe that, you
10:46
get a sense that in that moment, something shifted.
10:53
Rewind it and now replay it from a first person perspective.
10:57
Feel like you're back in your body in that moment and hearing
11:04
the words of affirmation that it was accepted.
11:09
And I want you to feel physically feel something shift.
11:16
I want you to get a sense that it wasn't just a proposal.
11:21
I want you to perceive it as a moment of acceptance, a vow of
11:27
forgiveness, and a declaration of trust.
11:33
And by being acceptance, forgiveness and trust, it then
11:39
builds a fortress wall protecting you from your past.
11:46
And beyond that fortress wall, imagine another fortress wall
11:53
where you were explicitly told not everything needs to be
11:58
shared. Some things are just for you to
12:01
deal with, and I want you to feel that your relationship is
12:07
now protected by those two large, impenetrable fortress
12:12
walls. And I want you to get a sense
12:16
that that moment of acceptance, forgiveness, and trust was not
12:23
just of who you are now, but everything you've been through
12:28
and also everywhere you're going together.
12:34
So from this moment on, I want you to choose to feel that
12:39
you've crossed that line and you are on the safe side of those
12:45
two fortress walls. Everything before that line and
12:49
those walls are in the past and everything after is your future.
12:56
A clean slate, a sacred contract, a peaceful mind.
13:07
Now I want you to imagine a tiny zoo with tiny creatures, strange
13:14
creatures. Maybe they look like little
13:18
monsters or aliens. But I want you to create an
13:22
idea, a new way of thinking that every thought is like a little
13:28
creature. Some are light and playful, some
13:33
are curious, some are helpful, and some are loud and intrusive,
13:40
aggressive and not well-intentioned.
13:47
But here's something you should know about these little
13:50
creatures. These creatures can only grow if
13:55
they are fed and what feeds them?
14:01
Attention and emotion and sometimes the intensity of your
14:07
reaction. But you are not a creature like
14:12
them. You are the keeper of the
14:16
creatures. You are in control now and you
14:22
get to decide which thoughts get your attention.
14:26
And you get to decide which emotions you give away.
14:32
You get to decide what grows and what fades.
14:38
Or perhaps you could think of a garden with both flowers and
14:44
weeds. If you fed the weeds and starved
14:48
the flowers, your garden would be a horrible garden filled with
14:52
weeds. But instead you nurture the
14:56
flowers and you remove the weeds.
15:01
And I want you to think of your relationship as that beautiful
15:05
garden. You are nurturing what you want
15:08
to keep, and you are removing or ignoring what does not belong
15:14
there. And I want you to get a sense
15:19
that sometimes those persistence repeating thoughts, especially
15:25
the ones you didn't invite in. What if they aren't enemies?
15:33
A plague of thoughts harassing you?
15:36
I want you to think of them as messengers.
15:41
What if these recurring thoughts looked like something else on
15:46
the outside, but had something valuable on the inside?
15:52
Like a valuable gift in past the parcel, or something helpful
15:57
inside a Trojan horse. And they may arrive in an
16:02
uncomfortable, perhaps unusual form, but inside is something
16:08
valuable. And you know that to be true
16:13
because every intrusive thought of your past had something
16:18
valuable to offer you. Maybe it was a lesson.
16:24
Maybe it was an opportunity to demonstrate a sense of
16:28
reassurance or growth or progress.
16:31
Maybe a boundary. Maybe it's to avoid something
16:36
undesirable happening in the future, or maybe a reminder of
16:42
what truly matters. It's the next time that
16:46
recurring intrusive thought appears.
16:49
Instead of fighting it like an enemy or feeling like you have
16:53
to share something, something that perhaps someone else
16:58
doesn't want to hear, you don't feed it.
17:01
But you do notice it, like watching a cloud pass in the sky
17:08
or leaves floating on a stream. But if the same cloud comes back
17:13
time after time, and the same leaf almost seems to fall back
17:20
on the stream in the same way, you can simply ask yourself, or
17:26
even ask the thought, What are you here to teach me?
17:31
What lesson are you offering? And then you thank it and let it
17:37
pass. And you don't need to decode
17:43
every intrusive thought, because that's giving it attention and
17:48
emotion. But you can be curious and don't
17:53
be surprised if every now and then you find a nugget of gold
17:58
in inside something that was innocuous or perhaps even
18:03
undesirable. And you can be grateful for
18:08
these insights and lessons. And the moment you extract
18:12
wisdom or something valuable from a thought, the need for the
18:17
recurring thought immediately vanishes.
18:21
And the cloud does not reappear, and the stream does not reappear
18:27
with the leaf in the same place. And I want you to think about
18:33
your future now. I want you to see yourself on
18:38
your wedding day. And I want you to see the
18:43
expression that you would most want on that day.
18:51
I want you to get a sense of how you're looking, how you're
18:53
moving. And there may be some nerves or
18:56
jitters, but I want you to see that the dominant emotion is
19:02
something wonderful and positive.
19:06
And then go further into the future.
19:08
Maybe a few years from now, you could imagine seeing yourself
19:13
waking up beside your partner, safe and loved.
19:18
I want you to see those shared smiles, plans not just made, but
19:23
experienced. I want you to see that that kind
19:28
of love grows stronger with time.
19:29
I don't want you to step into any one of those moments to know
19:36
that it's true that the more you think about what you want, the
19:41
more you increase the probability of manifesting that
19:45
future. And what if from now onwards,
19:50
instead of feeding the thoughts that you didn't want, more and
19:55
more often you feed the thoughts that you do?
20:01
That's it. Creating wonderful, self
20:03
fulfilling prophecies. I want you to get a sense that
20:07
you can in advance feel the joy of the life you are choosing.
20:13
Any of those echoes or ghosts from the past can never get
20:16
through those two fortress walls.
20:20
This is a future built on trust, forgiveness, and new beginnings.
20:27
And each day forward, you feed only the thoughts that deserve
20:31
your energy, are useful or helpful, and you water only the
20:38
seeds of peace, love, and clarity.
20:42
Any of those thoughts that weeds feel, that you can just pluck
20:46
them and throw them away. And that line in the sand, those
20:53
fortress walls never move. And anytime you need to, you can
21:01
look back at it, not to return, but to remind yourself how far
21:06
you've come. You are not your past, you are
21:12
wiser for it. You've chosen love, you've
21:16
chosen peace, and you've chosen to be the gardener of your mind.
21:25
I want you to get a sense that you now have tools, ways of
21:29
thinking. But more importantly, think back
21:34
to that dial. No need for high alert.
21:39
You are safely protected by those fortress halls.
21:44
Now is the safe time, the calm time, the peaceful time.
21:51
No need for vigilance. No need for high alert.
21:54
No need for panic. Start to feel good and aligned.
22:01
That's it. Very soon I will count from 1:00
22:06
to 10:00 and you will return back to the here and now.
22:10
So firstly, take a deep breath in through your nose and out
22:14
through your nose. Just wiggle your fingers and
22:17
wiggle your toes. Start to connect and calibrate
22:19
into the here and the now. That's it.
22:22
And now I'll count from 1:00 to 10:00 to awaken you.
22:26
You will awaken feeling calm, refreshed, connected with new
22:33
ways of thinking about how to think.
22:37
