  Hi, it's Adam here. And in this episode of The
• 0:43
  Hypnotist, you'll be listening to a short hypnosis session
• 0:47
  created for a client that was struggling to try new foods.
• 0:52
  And they really wanted to broaden out the variety of foods
• 0:57
  that they were eating. They felt comfortable with
• 1:00
  certain foods and a lot of things like toast and certain
• 1:07
  snack bars. But they did find eating hot
• 1:11
  chips in, in England, we would call them chips.
• 1:15
  America might call them fries, but effectively hot chips was
• 1:19
  certain things that they were fine with.
• 1:22
  So you're going to hear an element of harnessing that state
• 1:27
  where they were kind of on autopilot, they kind of felt.
• 1:30
  It was easy to do. Because they've done it before.
• 1:33
  And then that's transferred into this idea of what if they just
• 1:37
  kind of noticed that they were trying something else
• 1:40
  accidentally and quite liked him.
• 1:43
  And it's kind of like this. Covert.
• 1:45
  Way to trick the mind into feeling like, yeah, it's only a
• 1:49
  big deal if it's made into a big deal.
• 1:52
  So this element of it's kind of like an easy thing to do and to
• 1:56
  catch the mind off guard. I think it's quite a good way.
• 1:59
  So if you have been called a fussy eater, if you struggle
• 2:04
  with certain foods, then you might get some value from this
• 2:06
  session. It's not very long, but it might
• 2:10
  just kind of help you recall a moment where you're totally fine
• 2:14
  eating foods and then that can map across to different food
• 2:16
  types. So find a quiet, comfortable
• 2:18
  place where you won't be disturbed, relax and enjoy the
• 2:22
  session. Take a deep breath in, and as
• 2:56
  you breathe in, breathe in and slow, calm, relaxing breath.
• 3:04
  And as you exhale, just allow any feelings of tension, stress,
• 3:10
  or worries to feel like they're leaving your body in your
• 3:18
  outward breath. Just by breathing in and
• 3:24
  breathing out slower and deeper. Feel a sense of letting go,
• 3:37
  letting go of old ways of thinking and old habits that no
• 3:46
  longer serve you. The deeper you breathe, the more
• 3:51
  relaxed you become. As you position your body in a
• 3:56
  way to enable you to feel even deeper relaxed.
• 4:05
  Feel your arms getting heavier and heavier.
• 4:09
  You're breathing, becoming more relaxed, almost like you're
• 4:14
  sinking into a place of pure calmness.
• 4:21
  The deeper you breathe, the more relaxed you become, and the more
• 4:27
  relaxed you become, the more your imagination awakens.
• 4:38
  And I want you to use the power of your imagination to remember
• 4:45
  a time when you were going out to.
• 4:49
  Get food. And maybe that was a time when
• 4:53
  you went to a local chip shop or a cafe not too far away.
• 5:04
  And I want you to observe yourself like you're seeing
• 5:07
  someone that looks like you almost see yourself on
• 5:15
  autopilot, like you're an invisible observer.
• 5:21
  See yourself as you wander in, make the order, wait for a bit
• 5:31
  and notice how relaxed, how calm.
• 5:37
  Notice how you breathe your posture.
• 5:43
  And then imagine waiting for the order, collecting it, and maybe
• 5:49
  eating a chip or two even before you leave.
• 5:58
  As you observe, you can't help but come to the conclusion that
• 6:04
  this is a version of you that has no problems eating when you
• 6:11
  feel comfortable, when you just accept.
• 6:18
  It's a natural, easy thing to do, and I want you to imagine
• 6:27
  rewinding it, see yourself arriving, and this time when the
• 6:35
  order arrives, there may be something slightly different.
• 6:42
  Perhaps instead of normal potatoes, it might be sweet
• 6:48
  potatoes, or a different root vegetable like parsnips, or
• 6:54
  something else. But I want you to see that when
• 6:59
  you eat it the same way, it's just as effortless.
• 7:06
  Imagine seeing yourself putting your hand perhaps in a bag,
• 7:11
  taking a bite, chewing and swallowing.
• 7:14
  It's so, so easy. Rewind 1 more time and this time
• 7:22
  step into that version of you feel like you're opening the
• 7:26
  door, going into that place, placing the order, and then when
• 7:32
  it arrives, grabbing a handful, taking a bite and noticing that
• 7:41
  the taste is slightly different but still enjoyable.
• 7:48
  And notice how easy it is to eat when you're not thinking it's
• 7:56
  just something you do. I want you to think of another
• 8:02
  occasion, perhaps at home, and observe as you perhaps eat a
• 8:11
  piece of fruit, maybe a raw carrot, but then also observe as
• 8:19
  you see yourself eating that same thing in a different way.
• 8:26
  Maybe this time the carrots are boiled.
• 8:33
  Perhaps you see those chips served on a plate but
• 8:38
  accompanied with something else. And I want you to get a sense
• 8:44
  that you observe as you eat the way you would normally eat, but
• 8:50
  this time just add one additional food similar to what
• 8:56
  you normally eat, but slightly different.
• 8:59
  Or maybe the same food cooked in a different way.
• 9:03
  But observe as you see yourself effortlessly managing to eat in
• 9:10
  that way. Easy, simple, straightforward.
• 9:17
  And what you know for sure that you're observing yourself eating
• 9:23
  that food you don't normally eat, rewind, step into that
• 9:28
  version of you, and then feel completely relaxed in the same
• 9:35
  way that if you were eating a plate of chips.
• 9:39
  Only this time it's something slightly different.
• 9:45
  And maybe it's sweet potato chips, or maybe potatoes that
• 9:50
  are mashed or served in a different way, or maybe the
• 9:55
  carrots are boiled, or maybe it's a different vegetable.
• 9:59
  But feel, how could it feels to enjoy the taste, the texture,
• 10:04
  the chewing, the swallowing, and it all feels natural, relaxing,
• 10:11
  like you've been doing it for years.
• 10:15
  And notice when you think of it this way, it creates a self
• 10:20
  fulfilling prophecy. From this point forward, you
• 10:27
  won't treat it like it's something new, you will treat it
• 10:31
  like it's only a slight variation from something you've
• 10:36
  already been doing. To allow your mind to think of
• 10:45
  something just outside the comfort zone, similar to what
• 10:51
  you've eaten before but slightly different.
• 10:56
  And allow yourself to observe or imagine eating and it's
• 11:02
  completely fine. Relaxing no different from
• 11:07
  eating a handful of chips and just experienced that now
• 11:28
  allow your mind to look for easy wins, slight variations that are
• 11:40
  just ever so slightly different from how you've already been
• 11:45
  eating, with an assumption that it will be completely fine and
• 11:53
  noticing whenever it is. When you sleep, your mind will
• 11:59
  imagine eating food you haven't tried in years, enjoying those
• 12:05
  foods, feeling a desire to effortlessly, naturally add a
• 12:16
  tiny alteration to a meal or snack or way of eating, giving
• 12:24
  you the opportunity to surprise yourself, a shot to nothing.
• 12:34
  If you try something and it works, then it gives you more
• 12:39
  evidence that more change is possible.
• 12:43
  And if you feel any resistance, don't need to force yourself,
• 12:49
  just leave it for that time and revisit another time.
• 12:57
  It only takes one time of choosing, chewing and eating
• 13:04
  something to know you can do it from that point onwards that it
• 13:11
  becomes one of your regular foods that you enjoy.
• 13:19
  So allow your mind to hold onto a belief that this isn't about
• 13:27
  not being able to, it's just teaching your body and your
• 13:35
  brain to do it in a way that feels comfortable, safe, and
• 13:42
  relaxing. It's time to return to the
• 13:48
  present, having a sense that this is just a way of learning
• 13:57
  something slightly different from those things you already
• 14:01
  know. So take a deep breath in through
• 14:05
  your nose and out through your nose.
• 14:10
  Wiggle your fingers and wiggle your toes as I now count from
• 14:14
  1:00 to 10:00 to awaken you feeling alert, focused, and in
• 14:18
  the moment starting to count. 123 Waking up 456 More alert.
• 14:27
  7-8. Open your eyes, open your eyes.
• 14:31
  910 Wide awake, wide awake, wide awake.
