  Hi there Adam here and in this hypnosis session, which by the
• 0:49
  way is a very short hypnosis session, is designed to relieve
• 0:55
  a tension headache and. I was.
• 0:56
  Working with a client and I could tell from their facial
• 0:59
  expressions that they had some kind of pain or migraine or
• 1:04
  something going on and, and they did.
• 1:07
  And I said, well look, let's just do a very quick hypnosis
• 1:10
  session to help them release that because a lot of the time
• 1:15
  tension headaches are coming from the tightness of muscles or
• 1:20
  the change in. Breathing.
• 1:21
  And, and just the the overall kind of stress levels.
• 1:24
  So reducing that can actually release a tension headache very,
• 1:28
  very quickly. Now there's other headaches that
• 1:31
  this wouldn't work for, but if it's linked to tension, then you
• 1:35
  might find it's very helpful. It utilizes something called
• 1:38
  progressive relaxation, but also the suggestions of releasing the
• 1:43
  very tension that may be caused. So the ideal way to benefit from
• 1:48
  this very short hypnosis session is to find a quiet, comfortable
• 1:52
  place, ideally where you're not going to be disturbed or
• 1:54
  interrupted, and to relax and enjoy the session.
• 2:43
  Take a deep breath in, and as you breathe in, breathe in a
• 2:53
  sense of relaxation, and as you exhale, give permission to
• 3:01
  release tension. Just imagine that tension
• 3:07
  leaving your body in your outward breath.
• 3:13
  I'd like you to imagine a colour that would represent pure
• 3:19
  concentrated relaxation for you. Maybe a bright colour, maybe a
• 3:27
  calming colour. And as you breathe in, just
• 3:34
  imagine breathing in that specific colour of pure
• 3:41
  distilled relaxation. Imagine the colour going into
• 3:49
  your mouth, up your nostrils, down into your lungs.
• 3:53
  And imagine that colour in your lungs, the colour of pure
• 4:00
  concentrated relaxation. And then imagine your heart
• 4:11
  doing what it does with oxygen, but doing it with the
• 4:15
  relaxation. Imagine your heart absorbing
• 4:20
  that relaxation and distributing it to every cell in your body.
• 4:28
  In the same way that when you breathe in oxygen and exhale
• 4:35
  carbon dioxide, you don't need to think about that, your body
• 4:42
  just does it. So imagine breathing in that
• 4:47
  distilled relaxation and exhaling tension in your outward
• 4:54
  breath, breathing in that colour of relaxation.
• 5:00
  And then imagine exhaling grey shadows, and the shadows
• 5:06
  represent any stress, any tension, any worries.
• 5:17
  So breath by breath, you could imagine the tension leaving your
• 5:26
  body, and in particular imagine that color of concentrated
• 5:34
  relaxation, the tiny muscles around your face, head, neck and
• 5:42
  shoulders. Focus on the tiny muscles of
• 5:47
  your forehead and think about expressions that need those
• 5:52
  muscles, expressions like concern or surprise, and just
• 6:01
  imagine those muscles releasing any tension.
• 6:09
  And then focus on your eyelids, breathing in that relaxation and
• 6:16
  releasing any tension in and around the eyes.
• 6:23
  And now focus on your temple, those tiny muscles that sit
• 6:32
  right between your eyes and your hair, and just imagine some
• 6:43
  stretchy elastic being pulled tight.
• 6:48
  And then imagine releasing that tension in the elastic.
• 6:54
  And as you do that, just imagine any tension in your temples is
• 6:59
  being released. Allow that relaxation to ripple
• 7:03
  down into your jaw, feeling the jaw become more relaxed, more
• 7:12
  loose, more comfortable. And then focus on your neck and
• 7:17
  your shoulders. And just imagine any tension
• 7:22
  being like crystals of ice fused into your muscle tissue.
• 7:30
  And just allow those crystals of ice to melt away.
• 7:36
  And as they melt away, feel the sense of looseness, almost like
• 7:45
  your head is now a balloon on some string just floating.
• 7:50
  Now. You feel light, you feel relaxed
• 7:58
  and allow that relaxation to ripple down your arms.
• 8:04
  Just imagine what your arms would feel like if they were
• 8:07
  limp and loose and relax just like the arms of a puppet with
• 8:12
  no strings. And then imagine all of your
• 8:22
  internal organs starting to relax.
• 8:26
  Allow your heart to relax. Allow your vocal cords to relax,
• 8:31
  the tiny muscles inside your throat to relax.
• 8:36
  Breathing gets easier and more effortless.
• 8:39
  Relax the muscles in your chest and then down into the stomach
• 8:44
  and then your diaphragm. That muscle responsible for
• 8:49
  hiccups. Imagine that, relaxing now so
• 8:57
  you can breathe in deeper and exhale for longer, continuing to
• 9:02
  breathe in relaxation and exhale tension.
• 9:10
  Consider this like an emotional transfusion, breathing in the
• 9:16
  resources that you need and exhaling anything that is
• 9:22
  getting in the way of you feeling confident and relaxed.
• 9:31
  And if your neck and shoulders is the bank account of stress,
• 9:36
  then your gut is the bank account of anxiety.
• 9:42
  So as you breathe in that colour of concentrated relaxation,
• 9:47
  imagine that colour going down into your gut, all of those tiny
• 9:55
  internal muscles just behind your belly button.
• 9:59
  Just imagine that tension, anxiety and worry also melting
• 10:06
  away, giving you a feeling of becoming more and more relaxed.
• 10:13
  And allow that to ripple down into your legs.
• 10:17
  So your legs can also feel limp, loose and heavy and all the way
• 10:25
  down into your feet, tough muscles, your ankle, even the
• 10:31
  tiny tendons on your toes allow them all to relax.
• 10:38
  And I want you to think, think of something that you are
• 10:44
  incredibly competent at, something where you just know
• 10:51
  you can do that thing. Well.
• 10:56
  Maybe you can remember a time when you did something in a
• 11:00
  state of flow, feeling effortlessly relaxed while doing
• 11:04
  that thing. And imagine stepping into that
• 11:11
  version of you, a version of you relaxed and calm and confident
• 11:18
  and almost feel like you are updating the software of your
• 11:23
  brain to feel like that way. That's it.
• 11:29
  Increase the relaxation, release the tension, and start to feel
• 11:36
  the thoughts of what if something goes wrong are being
• 11:41
  replaced with what if they go well.
• 11:47
  That inner dialogue is becoming more encouraging, more positive.
• 11:53
  Just get a sense that you're feeling better and better with
• 11:57
  every breath. Any tension around your head is
• 12:02
  melting away. You're feeling confident and
• 12:07
  calm and relaxed with every outward breath that's in.
• 12:19
  It's time to recalibrate with the present, but take these
• 12:22
  wonderful feelings with you. Feeling of calmness, feeling of
• 12:28
  flow, a feeling of equilibrium and balance.
• 12:36
  That's it. I will count from one to 10 and
• 12:42
  when I arrive at 10, you will keep the relaxation fully in the
• 12:47
  here and the now. Starting to count 123.
• 12:52
  Starting to wake 456. More alert 7-8.
• 12:56
  Open your eyes. Open your eyes 910.
• 12:59
  Wide awake, Wide awake. Wide awake.
