• 0:39
  Hi, Adam here. Now, if you've ever felt nausea,
• 0:42
  you know what a horrible sensation it is.
• 0:45
  Quite often it's a feeling that precedes vomiting but doesn't
• 0:49
  have to lead to vomiting. And sometimes it could be a
• 0:53
  really unsettled gut. A lot of the time it feels like
• 0:56
  it's around the chest and the throat.
• 0:58
  A horrible, horrible feeling. And I was working with a client
• 1:02
  that was pregnant. They were about two months
• 1:03
  pregnant and it was much more severe sickness and nausea than
• 1:09
  their previous pregnancy and they didn't want to feel that
• 1:12
  way. It was getting them down, making
• 1:15
  them sad, stopping them from doing things that they wanted to
• 1:17
  do. So in this hypnosis session, it
• 1:20
  takes A2 pronged attack. 1 is looking at the nausea as a
• 1:26
  signal from the body, and this idea that the signal is
• 1:30
  understood and therefore the intensity of the signal is not
• 1:34
  required, is a good way of working with people.
• 1:38
  With anything that has a subjective spectrum like pain or
• 1:42
  anxiety, we want to dial that down.
• 1:45
  So there's that element. The second element is that they
• 1:48
  had had periods in their life where things that were
• 1:52
  undesirable had happened and yet they dealt with them in a very
• 1:57
  different way. There was 1 moment where they
• 2:00
  fell down some stairs, bruised himself, but it didn't stop them
• 2:02
  doing what they were planning on doing.
• 2:05
  And in social situations, a mean or nasty common wouldn't get
• 2:10
  under their skin, it wouldn't trigger them.
• 2:12
  And that's. Used to.
• 2:14
  Highlight this idea that the pain or the nausea can be real,
• 2:20
  but the suffering is a internal strategy quite often linked to
• 2:24
  victimhood and self pity. Why me?
• 2:28
  Why do I have to deal with this? This isn't fair.
• 2:30
  And that creates the cycle that makes something real much worse.
• 2:35
  Whereas most people have had the experience of having something
• 2:38
  like a migraine or a toothache, But if they've got something
• 2:42
  important that they need to do or a deadline while they're
• 2:45
  immersed in that new thing, the migraine of the toothache still
• 2:49
  exist. But they don't experience the
• 2:51
  same intensity because they are focused on other things.
• 2:55
  And that is used as a parallel for nausea.
• 2:58
  That actually, if as a result of nausea they just lay down on a
• 3:02
  sofa or a bed and don't do much, then they've got more time to
• 3:06
  think about the nausea. Whereas if they feel the nausea
• 3:11
  and continue to do what they're going to do anyway, there is an
• 3:14
  element of distraction and being focused on other things.
• 3:18
  They don't quite dwell or wallow in the nausea to the same
• 3:22
  extent. So it's about framing it in a
• 3:25
  different way. It also has for those people
• 3:28
  into NLP some elements of submodality shifts.
• 3:31
  This client perceived their nausea as being like a heavy
• 3:35
  toxic gas. That's why there's a metaphor of
• 3:38
  ventilation to remove that kind of feeling of weight and a smell
• 3:45
  and a sensation and a taste. All of those things are worked
• 3:49
  on in this session. Now, given that these were the
• 3:54
  sensations or the unconscious metaphors linked to the feeling
• 3:59
  of nausea for this client, it might be that you experience
• 4:02
  nausea in a different way. It might feel rather than around
• 4:06
  the throat and the respiratory, it might be more in the gut.
• 4:09
  It might feel less like a toxic cloud of smoke or something like
• 4:13
  that and more like something that's volatile like a like a
• 4:17
  bubbling cauldron could be different for you.
• 4:20
  So treat this hypnosis session where you utilize anything that
• 4:25
  feels useful or beneficial. Disregard anything that doesn't
• 4:28
  quite resonate. But if you do like the idea of a
• 4:31
  bespoke session specific to you and your circumstances, in the
• 4:36
  show notes there will be a link and also on my website
• 4:39
  adamcox.co.uk there will be a link.
• 4:42
  To book a free consultation, call Overzoom.
• 4:45
  We'll have a chat and it may be that we end up working together.
• 4:48
  So rather than just listening to my recordings, you end up
• 4:51
  working with me direct. And some people don't realize
• 4:54
  that the sessions that I share are on the base of real life
• 4:57
  sessions. It isn't that I speak with the
• 5:00
  client and send them a recording.
• 5:01
  They experience my hypno sessions absolutely live in real
• 5:05
  time. It's just that because I'm in a
• 5:07
  recording studio, I record that audio and share it while
• 5:11
  protecting the confidentiality of the client.
• 5:14
  And the reason I do that is that there's 8 billion people in the
• 5:17
  world. There's going to be some people
• 5:19
  in the world that are close enough to the circumstances of
• 5:22
  the original client. That means it's going to benefit
• 5:25
  them, but it will still benefit you even if you're not exactly
• 5:29
  in the same situation as the client, just not as much.
• 5:32
  And that's why people still work with me one-on-one even though I
• 5:36
  published so many recordings, because it is tailored and
• 5:39
  customized to them specifically. They're not getting a recording
• 5:43
  that was created for or someone else.
• 5:45
  If that appeals to you, check out that link.
• 5:47
  It's on adamcox.co.uk. But for now, find a quiet,
• 5:51
  comfortable place where you won't be disturbed.
• 5:54
  Relax and enjoy the session. Take a deep breath in, and as
• 6:15
  you breathe in, breathe in that resourceful feeling of calm and
• 6:21
  relaxation. And as you exhale, feel a
• 6:29
  wonderful feeling of release. Breathing in relaxation and
• 6:42
  exhaling anything that feels like it doesn't belong.
• 6:52
  I don't need to use the power of your imagination and imagine the
• 6:58
  bright glowing white light, almost like the very center of a
• 7:08
  *. And I want you to imagine
• 7:12
  breathing in this pure white light going in through your
• 7:18
  nose, into your lungs, pure, clean, vibrant.
• 7:26
  And as you exhale, imagine something toxic, sludgy, orange
• 7:34
  or brown just leaving your body, like a gas just leaving your
• 7:39
  mouth, your nose, leaving your body in your outward breath.
• 7:47
  And when you breathe in, breathe in that pure glowing white
• 7:52
  light, healing white light, and imagine all of that brightness
• 8:00
  there in your lungs. And just imagine your heart
• 8:05
  taking that bright white and distributing it to every cell in
• 8:11
  your body. And in the same way that you can
• 8:16
  breathe in oxygen, can exhale carbon dioxide without needing
• 8:22
  to do anything, just imagine breathing out anything impure,
• 8:30
  toxic, anything unpleasant, breathing in what your body
• 8:38
  needs, and exhaling anything that doesn't belong.
• 8:46
  It almost feels like this is an energetic transfusion, breathing
• 8:54
  in what's clean, pure and light, and exhaling what is heavy, dark
• 9:04
  and toxic. And notice already a lightness
• 9:11
  around your chest, around your throat, the feeling of feeling
• 9:19
  expansive rather than confined. That's it.
• 9:26
  Because you're breathing in is pure white light.
• 9:31
  The deeper you breathe, more relaxed and refreshed you feel.
• 9:39
  And the more relaxed and refreshed you feel, the deeper
• 9:43
  you breathe. A wonderful cycle of feeling
• 9:47
  healthier, cleaner, clearer, lighter.
• 9:53
  And every breath takes you deeper and deeper.
• 9:58
  Relax now. Eyelids getting heavier, muscles
• 10:04
  in your jaw starting to loose? Feel that looseness?
• 10:09
  That's it. Neck and shoulders relaxing.
• 10:13
  That's it. Every breath takes you deeper
• 10:20
  and deeper. Relaxed now.
• 10:35
  And I want you to imagine what it would feel like to see a
• 10:44
  slide, the kind of slide from your childhood, the kind of
• 10:51
  slide in a park, or the kind of slide that maybe you had in a
• 10:59
  garden when you were a child. Just imagine sliding down that
• 11:04
  slide. But it's a long slide, taking
• 11:08
  you from your conscious to your subconscious.
• 11:12
  And as I count down from 12:50, you will imagine continuing to
• 11:18
  slide down that slide. And when you get to the end, you
• 11:24
  will imagine yourself in pure, pristine nature on a sunny day
• 11:35
  with a light, gentle breeze. But for now, let's slide down
• 11:40
  the slide. Each descending number takes you
• 11:45
  deeper and deeper. Relaxed 10 Sliding down 9 Feel
• 11:55
  the fun, the lightness 8 Sliding down more feels exhilarating,
• 12:04
  freeing. 7 turns to six Continuing down the slide.
• 12:12
  Imagine at the top of the slide is thick toxic gas, and as you
• 12:16
  slide down you're getting further from the gas and more
• 12:20
  towards clean, clear nature air. Six goes to five halfway down
• 12:28
  the slide. Now and then four.
• 12:31
  Feel the sensation of a breeze or the air hitting your face as
• 12:38
  you slide down faster down the slide. 4 tends to three.
• 12:43
  I can imagine seeing the tops of trees now continuing down and
• 12:50
  maybe here running water below like a stream.
• 12:55
  Two turns to 1 and just imagine now one turns to 0.
• 13:00
  Just feel like you've slid all the way down this slide from a
• 13:08
  toxic atmosphere to clean, clear nature.
• 13:15
  And I want you to imagine yourself in that place of
• 13:21
  unspoilt nature. Only nature.
• 13:26
  Blue skies, sunshine, the breeze.
• 13:32
  That's it. I want you to get a feeling of
• 13:36
  what it would feel like be breathing in pure fresh air and
• 13:47
  just imagine somewhere nearby in that nature of trees and leaves
• 13:55
  and running water and fresh air is a comfy chair.
• 14:02
  Perhaps the comfiest chair you can ever imagine there in
• 14:06
  nature. Imagine sinking into that
• 14:10
  comfortable, relaxing chair. Imagine closing your eyes there
• 14:17
  in the nature, and as you continue to drift comfortably
• 14:22
  inward, you realize that there's no need to fight or resist
• 14:29
  anything at all. Your body already knows how to
• 14:35
  do something important. It already knows how to send a
• 14:40
  signal without needing to turn the volume up that a message can
• 14:48
  be delivered without the alarm continuing to blare.
• 14:56
  I don't need to think about nausea not as a problem, but as
• 15:01
  a signal. Somewhere deeper.
• 15:06
  Your mind can recognize that the nausea itself is not the
• 15:10
  problem, it's the intensity, the density and the weight.
• 15:20
  And that can now begin to change.
• 15:27
  You can allow your subconscious to keep what's useful while
• 15:32
  releasing what's excessive. The signal has already been
• 15:38
  received, the body heard it, it doesn't need to shout anymore.
• 15:48
  And just like turning down a dimmer switch, not switching
• 15:53
  anything off, just lowering it to a more comfortable level.
• 15:59
  You've done that before. You've gone into a room and it
• 16:03
  was just too bright, too intense, so you turned the
• 16:06
  lighting down or you entered a room where the music was just
• 16:13
  too loud and you just turned it down to the right level.
• 16:21
  So allow your system to begin to do that naturally.
• 16:25
  Now, low levels of nausea is part and parcel of pregnancy and
• 16:36
  what you're experiencing, but it doesn't need to be more intense
• 16:41
  than it needs to be. You've heard the signal, got the
• 16:45
  message, so let's dial it down. I don't want you to think about
• 16:56
  how you have been thinking about nausea.
• 17:01
  Thick, heavy toxic gas, maybe yellow or brown.
• 17:08
  That metallic, rotten, dense taste like smog, sitting low and
• 17:19
  stagnant. You don't need to push it away.
• 17:26
  Instead, simply notice that even smog and toxic gas behaves
• 17:33
  differently when air begins to move.
• 17:45
  So let's use your imagination and begin to imagine a gentle
• 17:53
  ventilation starting somewhere nearby.
• 18:00
  It could be mechanical like a fan, but nature already has
• 18:06
  ventilation. Convection currents are called
• 18:12
  wind or breezes, and I want you to imagine experiencing that
• 18:18
  airflow like a breeze moving through trees here, the leaves
• 18:27
  shifting, branches opening space.
• 18:32
  Feel the air begin to circulate. And that heavy gas doesn't need
• 18:39
  to be fought, it naturally thins.
• 18:46
  Imagine feeling the density reducing.
• 18:52
  Imagine the thickness turning into something light, opaque,
• 18:58
  transparent. That thick cloud of toxic gas is
• 19:05
  now thinner and thinner. What was thick becomes less
• 19:12
  dense and what was stagnant begins to dissipate.
• 19:21
  And as this happens, you may notice colours beginning to
• 19:26
  change. And don't be surprised if when
• 19:31
  you notice the changes, you notice a physical alteration or
• 19:38
  adaptation within your body. Tightness becomes released.
• 19:45
  Heaviness becomes light. Something confining and
• 19:49
  restricted becomes open, expansive to.
• 19:57
  Just imagine those murky yellows and Browns.
• 20:01
  To paler tones, to lighter shades like a pale blue or a
• 20:06
  bright glowing white. See the colour that represents
• 20:14
  clean freshness. Something with a glow brightness
• 20:23
  feels pure and healthy. And notice that when the gas
• 20:31
  feels like it's gone away, when the colours feel bright and
• 20:36
  light, notice how difficult it is to find that metallic, rotten
• 20:43
  taste. In fact, imagine someone passes
• 20:52
  you a delicious citrus fruit. Maybe it's an orange or
• 21:05
  something more bitter, like a lemon or lime.
• 21:10
  Perhaps something with a tangy sensation.
• 21:17
  Grapefruit. Maybe it's sweet, maybe it's
• 21:20
  sour, but it's tangy. It's fresh, it's powered by
• 21:27
  sunshine and rainwater. Pure water inside this citrus
• 21:36
  fruit and I want you to imagine taking a bite.
• 21:49
  Citrus fruits are filled of tiny pods that explode with flavour
• 21:57
  and just imagine them exploding all over the taste buds and
• 22:03
  notice the combination of this taste, this smell, this breeze,
• 22:10
  this lightness. Notice that when you feel this
• 22:14
  way, nausea seems elusive. In the same way that a tree
• 22:26
  cannot be planted in the desert, I want you to get a sense that
• 22:32
  nausea can't exist here. When you feel this way, you know
• 22:46
  the sensation of fresh air after rain, your lungs feeling easily
• 22:54
  like space returning. Nothing force, just ventilation
• 23:02
  and nature doing what moving air does.
• 23:12
  Some people think of the planet as a system.
• 23:17
  If something is too toxic, movement changes it.
• 23:24
  Water can become stagnant when it stops moving, and in the past
• 23:30
  you've used stopping moving as a coping strategy.
• 23:38
  But what if the best coping strategy is to feel undeterred,
• 23:46
  to do what you were going to do anyway?
• 23:52
  Motion creates emotion. I want you to notice that this
• 24:00
  isn't about feeling amazing. It's just about feeling neutral.
• 24:07
  Fresh air, open space, nature, a body that can breathe again and
• 24:16
  even if a trace of sensation remains, it sits in the
• 24:21
  background now, no longer centre stage and no longer dominating
• 24:28
  awareness. You've made the small thing
• 24:34
  bigger than it needed to be. Not because you were doing
• 24:40
  anything wrong. You were trying to do the right
• 24:44
  thing in the wrong way. But where focus goes, energy
• 24:52
  flows. And if the focus is on the
• 24:56
  nausea, you will notice more nausea.
• 25:02
  I want you to recall a time when you were bruised, in pain, but
• 25:09
  because your focus was on moments, experiences,
• 25:14
  conversations, you noticed less pain.
• 25:21
  If that's true with pain, it's also true with nausea.
• 25:28
  And sometimes we make things worse unintentionally.
• 25:33
  And in a dialogue of self pity or frustration or manic or
• 25:39
  reactive problem solving implies that you're the victim and
• 25:47
  there's no judgement. They're understandable rational
• 25:52
  responses, but your mind already knows another voice.
• 26:00
  There's been times in your life where things were hard,
• 26:03
  difficult, unpleasant, but you're in a dialogue sounded
• 26:10
  very different. Awaken that in a dialogue now,
• 26:15
  the one that sounded like pride, tenacity, gratitude, and maybe
• 26:26
  at some level you knew it was uncomfortable, and yet you felt
• 26:33
  undeterred. Think of a friend from your
• 26:37
  past. That nausea didn't stop them
• 26:43
  doing what they wanted to do. Feel that thought, idea, belief
• 26:49
  awakening within you awaken a way of thinking about this so it
• 27:00
  becomes less of a big deal. Something manageable.
• 27:10
  Not about drama, not about force, just knowing you have a
• 27:18
  choice. I want you to think that there
• 27:26
  is perhaps thousands of people experiencing something more
• 27:35
  intense than you're nausea. Some of those are pregnant,
• 27:44
  maybe some aren't. Maybe some are going through
• 27:51
  difficult medical treatments and others difficult pregnancies.
• 28:00
  And I want you to compare your nausea to something much worse,
• 28:07
  so you start to feel that even though it's not great, it's
• 28:13
  manageable. It could be worse.
• 28:17
  And maybe what once was calling sadness, frustration, pity can
• 28:23
  now 'cause perspective that leads to gratitude, a sign that
• 28:34
  it's a small price to pay. There is someone in the world
• 28:42
  right now that would gladly take four times your nausea if it
• 28:51
  meant they could be pregnant. And I want you to get a sense
• 28:57
  that sometimes things aren't as you want them to be.
• 29:09
  But what if it's a small price to pay?
• 29:17
  The ticket for the admission is worth all that you can and will
• 29:24
  experience, because you don't need to like any sensation to
• 29:33
  move forward anyway. Pleasant does not mean
• 29:38
  unmanageable. Hear that voice, that in a
• 29:48
  dialogue that sounds undeterred, telling you that this nausea is
• 29:54
  a small price in a short chapter for something profoundly healthy
• 30:02
  and meaningful. That things have always come in
• 30:08
  your life after periods of endurance.
• 30:14
  This is not punishment. This is an investment to help
• 30:23
  give you resilience perspective. I want you to get a feeling, a
• 30:35
  feeling that you know how to make something that bothers
• 30:38
  someone else not bother you. Drift back to a memory in a
• 30:44
  social situation where someone said something mean or rude,
• 30:51
  passive aggressive or snarky, and it felt like water off a
• 30:57
  duck's back. Didn't bother you at all?
• 31:03
  Awaken that neural network and allow that neural network to
• 31:08
  connect with feeling that way about nausea instead of what if
• 31:17
  this gets worse, How long will this go on for?
• 31:20
  Imagine thinking this is temporary, this is manageable, I
• 31:25
  can handle this, and doing whatever you were going to do
• 31:30
  anyway, knowing that your mind can only focus on a few things
• 31:43
  and that 7 or 8 balls that fit in that bucket of focus and
• 31:47
  attention when you fill the bucket with things you want to
• 31:53
  be doing. What if there's no space left
• 31:57
  for any nausea? It exists, you just don't
• 32:02
  experience it. So activate those same emotional
• 32:09
  muscles, that same resilience, and allow your unconscious to
• 32:14
  apply it effortlessly. You know how to make things less
• 32:20
  bothersome or more. I want you to feel.
• 32:31
  Feel a sense of everything is dialing down its intensity, and
• 32:39
  if it has to be there, you accept it.
• 32:43
  But that doesn't mean you can't change how you think about it.
• 32:48
  Changing thick gas to light, gas to no gas, Strong heavy smells
• 32:58
  to no smells, Heaviness to lightness.
• 33:04
  That's it. Just allow yourself to know that
• 33:09
  you're more in control of what meaning you give things and how
• 33:17
  you think about things. Part of you locks in a new
• 33:25
  identity where there is less nausea when it's possible and
• 33:31
  yet undeterred when it's present.
• 33:35
  No spiralling, no collapse, just a calm knowing the Stoics
• 33:47
  understood that pain doesn't need to mean suffering, nausea
• 33:57
  does not mean you need to suffer.
• 34:02
  And when you accept that fully, it loses control and intensity.
• 34:12
  Imagine the next few days and weeks.
• 34:17
  The nausea is not even described as nausea, just sensations like
• 34:26
  feelings of turbulence inside. Manageable.
• 34:32
  See that future version of you. Lighter, smiling more, breathing
• 34:35
  more freely, more yourself again.
• 34:41
  Like a chapter has faded into a new chapter.
• 34:45
  Things are getting easier and there's more joy, and I want you
• 34:52
  to see yourself with a new level of resilience.
• 34:56
  A new. Level of being empowered with a
• 35:02
  new level of quiet pride. That's it.
• 35:07
