• 0:41
  Hi, Adam here. And this hypnosis session is
• 0:44
  going to be about a fear of flying and I was working with a
• 0:48
  client that had a flight from the States to London and
• 0:54
  particularly the movements. So turbulence or sudden jolty
• 0:58
  movements would really. Trigger a.
• 1:00
  Feeling of anxiety and we did a lot of work before this hypnosis
• 1:04
  bit to disassociate from the anxiety and to get them feeling
• 1:09
  resourceful initially through disassociation, which is them
• 1:13
  observing themselves looking confident and then stepping into
• 1:17
  that and feeling that confident. Even though they would be on a
• 1:20
  plane in the kind of situation that would have triggered
• 1:24
  anxiety before and you can hear an element of priming.
• 1:28
  They felt very confident driving even though in driving there'd
• 1:32
  be lots of variables that might cause other people anxiety.
• 1:37
  It didn't for them. So that was a good resource
• 1:38
  state and there's a bit going on here to get them in a feeling a
• 1:42
  resourceful emotional state and then mapping that across to
• 1:47
  flying. Now, I would encourage you if
• 1:50
  you're listening to this and you hear you have a fear or a phobia
• 1:54
  or an anxiety of flying, to think about an upcoming flight
• 2:00
  that you have and start thinking about that destination, that
• 2:05
  airport that you might be flying from to maximize the benefit you
• 2:08
  get from this session. But do bear in mind that this
• 2:12
  was created for an individual client.
• 2:14
  So if you do like the idea of a bespoke session, particularly if
• 2:18
  you have something coming up soon, there will be a link in
• 2:23
  the description where you can book a free consultation call to
• 2:27
  explore working with me. Also right now I have to launch
• 2:33
  a a membership, a low cost membership.
• 2:35
  There is free downloads, so 22 studio quality downloads.
• 2:40
  So if you like this kind of hypnosis but you don't want to
• 2:43
  be listening to the intro, the outro and the explanations
• 2:46
  again, look for the link in the description and you can get 22
• 2:49
  downloads completely free. For now though, find a quiet,
• 2:53
  comfortable place where you won't be disturbed.
• 2:55
  Relax and enjoy the session. Take a deep.
• 3:29
  Breath. In and as you breathe in,
• 3:37
  breathe in that slow, long, relaxing breath.
• 3:43
  And as you exhale, feel a sense of release, breathing in that
• 3:54
  resourceful feeling of calm and relaxation.
• 3:59
  And as you exhale, allowing feelings of stress, worry, or
• 4:06
  tension to feel like it's leaving your body in your
• 4:12
  outward breath. And as you breathe in and
• 4:18
  breathe down, allow your eyelids to relax and get heavier and
• 4:22
  heavier. Loosen any muscles in the jaw,
• 4:28
  neck, and shoulders. And just allow your body to do
• 4:34
  the breathing for you so that breathing becomes effortless.
• 4:43
  Breathing in through your nose, allowing your diaphragm to
• 4:49
  expand. And as you exhale, give
• 4:55
  permission to release any thoughts, worries and emotions
• 5:02
  that weren't helping anyway. And as you breathe in, think of
• 5:10
  a colour that represents calm confidence, the kind of
• 5:19
  confidence you might feel when you're driving.
• 5:25
  That feeling of I've got this, no big deal, I know how to do
• 5:34
  this. Can I imagine breathing in that
• 5:38
  calm confidence? But imagine any feelings of
• 5:44
  overwhelm, worry, or tension as almost like dark shadows.
• 5:54
  And as you exhale, allow those dark shadows to feel like
• 6:00
  they're leaving your body in your outward breath.
• 6:07
  And the deeper you breathe, the more relaxed you become.
• 6:13
  And the more relaxed you become, the deeper you breathe.
• 6:18
  And as your body relaxes, your imagination awakens.
• 6:27
  And I want you to imagine the virtual reality simulator that
• 6:38
  just has a program installed called Flying and just imagine
• 6:50
  what it would feel like to put that unit over your eyes on your
• 6:59
  head and just imagine what it would feel like.
• 7:08
  Go to a moment in your life where you feel completely
• 7:11
  confident. Maybe it's driving, maybe it's
• 7:15
  something else, but just feel that sense of confidence,
• 7:22
  calmness, relaxation. Breathe.
• 7:29
  That way you would breathe feeling calm and relaxed, and
• 7:34
  notice if there is any inner dialogue.
• 7:40
  It's slow, it's calm, it's confident.
• 7:45
  The essence is I'll handle it, no big deal.
• 7:56
  I want you to imagine that you are activating that part of you
• 8:01
  that knows how to be calm and confident.
• 8:07
  Imagine that your awakening that neural pathway in collection of
• 8:14
  neurons that just knows that in those situations, even when
• 8:22
  there's infinite variables that you're not in control of that
• 8:28
  you still know how to be calm and confident.
• 8:38
  I want you to get a sands that it's not the speed and the
• 8:45
  movement that was ever the issue.
• 8:50
  Because you are on the surface of a planet rotating at
• 8:58
  thousands of mph, hurtling through a Galaxy at millions of
• 9:07
  mph, and yet you're calm and relaxed and therefore your brain
• 9:16
  already knows how to move at speed and feel relaxed.
• 9:26
  So now imagine feeling that sense of calm relaxation as you
• 9:32
  imagine boarding a plane and allow your muscle tension to
• 9:39
  relax even more as you imagine sitting on the very seat of an
• 9:46
  upcoming flight. And I want you to imagine that
• 9:54
  as the plane takes off, it activates more of that confident
• 10:02
  version within you. I want you to accept the
• 10:08
  suggestion. Then, as the plane reaches
• 10:15
  cruising altitude, it will activate that confident,
• 10:24
  resourceful version of you. So by the time it reaches that
• 10:31
  altitude, it has unlocked a version of you that can enjoy a
• 10:38
  flight, that can feel relaxed, that can feel calm.
• 10:49
  And I want you to imagine that sensation, a wonderful sensation
• 10:57
  of feeling calm and confident as the plane rises.
• 11:05
  Your inner dialogue is slow and measured and reasonable, not
• 11:16
  saying very much at all, because the only evaluations you need to
• 11:22
  make are low stakes evaluations. Whether you need to go to the
• 11:31
  toilet or not, watch a movie, listen to music, what drink
• 11:39
  you'll have, whether to eat or not.
• 11:43
  And when the evaluations are low stakes, the feelings are low
• 11:52
  stakes, and if any thoughts pop into your head of things outside
• 12:00
  of your control, it will activate a very reasonable
• 12:08
  response. I'll be fine, everything's OK.
• 12:16
  This won't last very long. I will arrive at my destination
• 12:22
  soon. I want you to feel that you now
• 12:30
  know how to have a self fulfilling prophecy working for
• 12:36
  you. That when you expect things to
• 12:40
  be fine, they are. When you feel like you can cope,
• 12:47
  you can. And any anxiety from this point
• 12:53
  onwards are simply echoes or false evaluations.
• 13:03
  And you already know about echoes, that they get quieter
• 13:08
  and quieter and quieter until they disappear.
• 13:13
  And a false evaluation can easily be replaced with a true
• 13:20
  evaluation. And when that evaluation is
• 13:27
  empowering and useful, the emotion that follows is
• 13:33
  empowering and useful. And if there is any turbulence
• 13:44
  or sudden movements, you're in a dialogue, we'll say, of course,
• 13:54
  I've been expecting this, this won't last very long, and I can
• 13:59
  handle it. And you will focus on the things
• 14:05
  you can control, breathing slowly from the diaphragm,
• 14:14
  relaxing any tension in your muscles and slowing down that
• 14:22
  inner dialogue to make it slow and uncertain.
• 14:30
  By changing the tempo and the tonality, you can dial down
• 14:36
  those echoes of anxiety. And each time you do this, you
• 14:45
  will feel more and more comfortable as you adopt the
• 14:52
  belief that you are simply one good flight away from being free
• 15:00
  of this fear. And maybe it's your very next
• 15:05
  flight, but even if it isn't, it could be the flight after.
• 15:15
  I want you to get a sense that you are one good flight from
• 15:21
  banishing a fear that has haunted you.
• 15:23
  And when you have that one good flight, that then provides
• 15:33
  evidence that future flights will be even better.
• 15:44
  Some people believe that you feel the fear and do it anyway.
• 15:51
  I want you to get a sense that the fear that you have felt was
• 16:00
  simply false evaluations that appeared real.
• 16:06
  And with new evaluations and a shift in focus, don't be
• 16:12
  surprised if you can dial down all of that anxiety so you don't
• 16:17
  need to feel the fear to do it anyway.
• 16:21
  As the fear simply becomes more and more elusive with every
• 16:29
  flight you take, I want you to imagine starting to descend to
• 16:40
  your destination. There is no relief.
• 16:47
  There is a sense of excitement because you are getting to your
• 16:53
  destination to do all of the things you want to do there.
• 17:02
  If your unconscious mind is ready to deactivate an old
• 17:08
  neural pathway to create a new empowering way of thinking, let
• 17:15
  me know. By nodding your head.
• 17:19
  That's it. You're in control of your
• 17:23
  breathing, your posture, your tension, and you're in a
• 17:27
  dialogue. And in doing so, you are
• 17:31
  activating a new neural pathway that will enjoy flying as you
• 17:39
  get to your destination. Imagine having a wonderful time
• 17:45
  as it's time to return back to the here and now.
• 17:51
  Take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your
• 17:56
  nose. Just wiggle your fingers and
• 18:00
  wiggle your toes. That's it.
• 18:01
  Connect and calibrate into the here and the now as I now count
• 18:06
  from 1:00 to 10:00 to awaken you.
• 18:11
  Starting to count 123 waking up 456 more alert 7-8.
• 18:20
  Open your eyes. Open your eyes 910.
• 18:24
  Wide awake. Wide awake.
• 18:27
  Wide awake.
