• 0:13
  Brought to you by The Hypnotherapist, demanded by
• 0:16
  celebrities, CEOs and even royalty, Adam Cox.
• 0:20
  These recordings took place live from Adam's clinic in London's
• 0:24
  world famous Harley Street. So get yourself comfortable and
• 0:31
  enjoy today's episode of The Hypnotist.
• 0:39
  Adam here. And in this hypnosis session,
• 0:42
  it's all about releasing A compulsion or a regular habit of
• 0:48
  cocaine use. And I was working with a client
• 0:52
  that would find themselves using cocaine on their own or in
• 0:55
  certain social situations. And it wasn't doing what it used
• 0:59
  to do for them. It used to really give them a
• 1:01
  feeling of kind of elation and joy and real connection with
• 1:05
  other people, but it had stopped doing that and it just felt that
• 1:09
  it had taken more than it was giving.
• 1:12
  It had a lot of pain, particularly around their their
• 1:15
  nose it was causing. Fatigue it was.
• 1:18
  Causing them to feel guilt and shame and all of this thing was
• 1:22
  actually hindering the quality of their life rather than
• 1:26
  enhancing it. Now this particular client
• 1:29
  didn't want to have a future of no cocaine use.
• 1:33
  A lot of my clients that work with me do want to become
• 1:36
  completely abstinent. They don't want any relationship
• 1:39
  at all. This particular client just
• 1:41
  wanted to dramatically reduce the amount that they have.
• 1:47
  And as I was working with this client, it kind of dawned on me
• 1:50
  that is very similar with the relationship with sugar that I
• 1:53
  used to have and the kind of relationship with sugar that I
• 1:56
  now have. I used to have a very kind of
• 1:59
  sweet tooth and I would have lots of energy drinks and lots
• 2:01
  of sweets and candy and chocolates and confectionery.
• 2:06
  And really it's ruined my teeth as a result of all of that, my
• 2:09
  teenage and 20s having all of that sugar.
• 2:14
  Now I'm very discerning with how I have sugar.
• 2:17
  I'll have it on special occasions or maybe dessert after
• 2:21
  a nice meal, but I'm not having anywhere near the amount of
• 2:24
  sugar that I used to. It's still in my life, but I'm
• 2:27
  very discerning about when and how I have it.
• 2:30
  And this client wanted that kind of relationship, but with
• 2:33
  cocaine. They wanted it in very kind of
• 2:37
  sparse moments where they feel that it was worth it for them
• 2:41
  and their value system. And I appreciate some people
• 2:44
  would listen to this and say like, you know, it should be no,
• 2:47
  never. And that's completely fine for
• 2:49
  any individual. I've never taken any
• 2:51
  recreational drug in my life, and I don't plan on doing that.
• 2:55
  But that's my value system. And as a therapist, I don't
• 2:58
  project my value system onto my clients.
• 3:00
  I respect their value system. And my job is to help my clients
• 3:04
  achieve what they want to do. And this particular client
• 3:08
  wanted to be very discerning with how they used it.
• 3:11
  And that's what this session is all about.
• 3:13
  It actually uses some elements of role models.
• 3:18
  They had a few people that they knew that used to be very
• 3:21
  hedonistic, have a lot of consumption of various drugs and
• 3:25
  now? Didn't.
• 3:25
  So that was irrefutable evidence that change can happen, that
• 3:29
  it's possible to change that relationship.
• 3:31
  It also has a metaphor of being a goldfish in a bowl, seeing
• 3:36
  everyone else enjoying life and they can't.
• 3:38
  And there's a a reframe here. So the bowl, rather than
• 3:41
  becoming the restriction of being not allowed to have
• 3:45
  certain substances, is being allowed to kind of have it but
• 3:49
  not wanting it. That's the discernment.
• 3:51
  And actually cocaine then becomes the bowl, because in
• 3:54
  many. Cases people feel.
• 3:56
  Trapped by a habit or an addiction?
• 3:59
  There's lots going on in this session.
• 4:01
  But if you feel that maybe it isn't cocaine for you, maybe
• 4:04
  it's a different thing that you just want to reduce the amount
• 4:06
  of. You should.
• 4:07
  Get some value from this, but please be aware it was created
• 4:10
  for an individual. Many of the suggestions are
• 4:12
  highly specific to the client that I was working with.
• 4:15
  They might not quite be relevant for you, so just ignore any
• 4:18
  suggestions that aren't, hone into the ones that are.
• 4:21
  And if you like the idea of working with me directly to get
• 4:25
  a bespoke session, there will be a link in the description where
• 4:28
  you can find out different ways of working with me.
• 4:31
  For now though, find a quiet, comfortable place where you
• 4:34
  won't be disturbed. Relax and enjoy the session.
• 5:03
  Take a deep breath in, and as you breathe in, breathe in and
• 5:12
  slow, long, relaxing breath, and as you exhale, give permission
• 5:22
  to release any feeling of tension, any guilt, any fatigue.
• 5:33
  Just allow it to leave your body as you breathe out, each breath
• 5:42
  giving you the ability to drift inward, enabling you to feel
• 5:51
  deeper and deeper. Relaxed eyelids getting heavier,
• 5:58
  breathing slowing down. There is a place in your mind,
• 6:07
  perhaps deep, where change happens quicker, a place in your
• 6:15
  imagination. So as you breathe in and breathe
• 6:20
  out, just imagine your body starting to float, floating up
• 6:28
  and up. And then you realize your body
• 6:32
  is where it was, but there is something else floating.
• 6:39
  You might think of it as your imagination, your intuition, or
• 6:42
  your subconscious. Something is floating and I want
• 6:49
  you to imagine that part, to float to a paradise reef.
• 6:58
  I want you to imagine crystal clear waters, sunshine, and I
• 7:05
  want you to imagine descending into the reef surrounded by
• 7:14
  tropical fish. Now you might imagine yourself
• 7:23
  with a snorkel or a scuba mask, or maybe you imagine yourself as
• 7:28
  a fish. But I want you to imagine what
• 7:32
  it would feel like to see every other fish exploring the reef.
• 7:42
  And you can't. You are in a fishbowl, submerged
• 7:48
  in the water, seeing the vibrant activity of the reef, and yet
• 7:58
  you can't access it. And I want you to feel that in
• 8:04
  the past you felt that in order to escape the fishbowl, you
• 8:11
  needed to do something or take something to be included.
• 8:19
  But I want you to imagine something else.
• 8:24
  I want you to imagine what it would be like if you were the
• 8:28
  most discerning fish in the reef.
• 8:33
  Because that fishbowl wasn't to prevent you from interacting
• 8:38
  with the other fish, it was to protect you from a part of
• 8:43
  yourself. And what if discernment can
• 8:48
  protect you more than the fishbowl ever could?
• 8:56
  I want you to imagine the fishbowl dissolves and you can
• 9:01
  now interact with all the other fish there in the reef.
• 9:07
  Vibrant, colorful fish, fish having fun, feeding, having all
• 9:17
  the fun in the reef. But now you are the most
• 9:22
  discerning fish because some of those fish, they are feeding on
• 9:34
  rotting fish of fish that have recently died.
• 9:42
  They are looking for food in the dirt.
• 9:46
  But I want you to imagine you are the most discerning fish.
• 9:52
  You are only interested in exceptional experiences.
• 10:01
  I want you to imagine rising your criteria for what it takes
• 10:08
  to be worthy of you. Real experiences, real emotions,
• 10:25
  real connection, but most of all, real joy.
• 10:35
  For a while you were looking for synthetic substitutes for real
• 10:41
  joy, the illusion of joy, the illusion of ecstasy and
• 10:46
  happiness. But many times by consuming the
• 10:54
  illusion, you deprived yourself of the reality.
• 11:03
  And I want you to imagine swimming around the reef, seeing
• 11:08
  other fish doing things that you don't consider worthy of you
• 11:14
  anymore. No Fear of missing out, No Fear
• 11:22
  of losing an experience, because your experience is different.
• 11:32
  And I don't want you to imagine seeing a portal, almost like a
• 11:42
  glowing circle there in the reef, as you imagine leaving the
• 11:50
  reef and finding a staircase of smooth stone the moment you pass
• 12:00
  through the portal and no longer a fish.
• 12:03
  You are you, but feeling just as discerning as that fish in the
• 12:09
  reef. 54321 going through the portal, finding yourself at the
• 12:15
  top of a staircase, A staircase made of smooth stone.
• 12:23
  And very soon I will count downwards from 12:50, and with
• 12:30
  each descending number you will take a step down the staircase,
• 12:34
  feeling deeper and deeper, relaxed.
• 12:40
  That's it. Starting to count. 10 First step
• 12:50
  down the staircase 9. Letting go of tension 8.
• 12:55
  Relaxing the muscles in your face 7.
• 13:00
  This is the step where you release the past. 6 breathing
• 13:07
  calm into your body. 5 halfway down, now feeling safe. 4 deeper
• 13:16
  still. Three another step down the
• 13:21
  staircase, peaceful and grounded.
• 13:26
  Two almost there. And one I want you to imagine at
• 13:33
  the bottom of the staircase is the place within you where truth
• 13:40
  lives. So one and then zero, you're
• 13:46
  there in that place. And in this calm inner space, I
• 13:53
  want you to imagine a full length mirror.
• 14:01
  And as you stare into the mirror, I want you to see
• 14:05
  someone that you know. Someone then used to be wild,
• 14:13
  reckless, impulsive, chaotic. Someone who lived at full speed.
• 14:25
  But I want you to see them not as they were, but as they are
• 14:29
  now. You can see it in their eyes.
• 14:37
  A calm strength, a new level of discernment.
• 14:45
  Discernment is simply the line that separates things you're
• 14:49
  willing to do and not willing to do.
• 14:55
  Not through willpower, but simply through a realization
• 15:04
  that it doesn't serve you anymore.
• 15:09
  And as you raise your standards, discernment gets higher.
• 15:15
  And I want you to get a feeling, a feeling of connection to that
• 15:23
  change. They found something that you
• 15:30
  now begin to feel stirring in yourself.
• 15:35
  A quiet confidence, a deep sense that life is richer without that
• 15:47
  feeling of compulsion, that feeling of fatigue and guilt, a
• 15:59
  feeling of pain, disappointment. And as you observe them, part of
• 16:07
  your subconscious begins to wonder that maybe the universe
• 16:12
  put them there in front of you for a reason.
• 16:17
  That if they could change, maybe I can too.
• 16:25
  And you don't need to know how, and you don't need to know when
• 16:32
  only that something is clicking or will soon click.
• 16:39
  And from that moment on you just won't want it anymore.
• 16:48
  At least not in the same way. And I want you to imagine what a
• 16:55
  switch would look like there in your brain.
• 17:01
  It's clicked for something else. And what if it clicks for this
• 17:05
  new thing, too? And you can begin to notice now
• 17:13
  how the mind once associated cocaine with excitement,
• 17:19
  pleasure, energy, the forbidden fruit.
• 17:27
  I want you to look at it with new eyes, knowing everything you
• 17:33
  now know. I want you to see the truth
• 17:39
  beneath the facade. Just like a person can come
• 17:45
  across in one way, but be really different underneath.
• 17:51
  I want you to imagine that cocaine can look appealing,
• 17:55
  exciting, pleasurable. But you know the real cocaine,
• 18:04
  It doesn't give joy, it steals it.
• 18:11
  It doesn't create confidence. It borrows it.
• 18:16
  And living and leaving the debt of guilt, shame and exhaustion.
• 18:24
  And how many times did it promise more but give back less?
• 18:33
  Every lion took little sparkle out of real moments, Moments
• 18:38
  that could have been fun, connected, alive, but instead
• 18:45
  become blurred, hollow, and forgettable.
• 18:51
  What if cocaine doesn't free you from the fishbowl but imprisons
• 18:55
  you in it and somewhere deep inside your unconscious is now
• 19:03
  re evaluating that it takes so much more to give you less
• 19:11
  value. The cost is simply too high.
• 19:15
  And not just money, but peace, self respect, and real
• 19:23
  happiness. And if this realization turns
• 19:32
  from knowledge that you already know into discernment that you
• 19:35
  actually feel, let me know by nodding your head.
• 19:47
  Consider this all part of what helps to make that switch click
• 19:55
  as you begin to feel an inner shift.
• 20:00
  A decision forming at the level of identity where you simply
• 20:07
  know that's not who I am anymore.
• 20:14
  These people that have been brought into your life, their
• 20:19
  identity has changed, which is why they don't need willpower.
• 20:26
  Just doesn't fit with the evolved version of them.
• 20:34
  They are offering you a blueprint away because that's
• 20:40
  what the clique represents, an updated identity.
• 20:47
  And from this moment forward, I want you to imagine you becoming
• 20:55
  more discerning than ever before.
• 21:01
  It's as if your inner radar can instantly detect what's worth it
• 21:08
  and what's not worth it. And you can still enjoy life,
• 21:15
  still celebrate, still socialize, but only in those
• 21:20
  specific circumstances that truly bring connection, joy, and
• 21:27
  meaning. And cocaine?
• 21:32
  Don't be surprised if it simply doesn't meet the criteria
• 21:37
  anymore. A lot of what your recent
• 21:43
  experiences were wouldn't have met the criteria that are in
• 21:49
  place now. And what if your discernment
• 21:55
  protects you? A quiet, effortless instinct
• 22:01
  that says, no thanks, I'm good. And what's strange, what's
• 22:11
  powerful, is that it doesn't even feel like resistance.
• 22:18
  It feels like freedom. The switch has truly clicked
• 22:25
  when you don't need to fight, don't need to struggle, don't
• 22:29
  need to use willpower, you simply don't want it.
• 22:34
  And I want you to imagine going back to that mirror and now
• 22:43
  seeing you in the future, perhaps six months or a year
• 22:48
  from now, living that life of discernment where your
• 22:55
  consumption is a tiny percentage of what it once was.
• 23:01
  That could be negligible, or it could be only in very certain
• 23:08
  situations. And I want you to imagine
• 23:12
  stepping through the mirror into the shoes of that future version
• 23:17
  of you. And I want you to imagine
• 23:21
  yourself in the very circumstances and situations
• 23:25
  that you used to use frequently, but now through this discerning
• 23:31
  version of you, it no longer meets your criteria.
• 23:40
  It becomes easy for you to say, no thanks.
• 23:45
  It becomes easy for you to just leave an environment, a
• 23:49
  situation that isn't giving you joy.
• 23:57
  Becomes easy to delete certain numbers from your phone that
• 24:02
  used to be a gateway to accessing.
• 24:08
  And there is No Fear in deleting or blocking those numbers
• 24:11
  because you don't want it anymore.
• 24:17
  But I want you to notice in this future how much more pride you
• 24:22
  have, energy you have exercising, working out, playing
• 24:28
  more sport, having more real joy from real social interactions.
• 24:36
  The substance was stealing your joy, not giving it, and
• 24:43
  sometimes you have to escape that to realise it was always
• 24:50
  the fishbowl and never the reef. Breathing in discipline, wisdom,
• 24:59
  discernment and stability, and breathing out old cravings, old
• 25:05
  patterns, old parts of an identity that just doesn't fit
• 25:11
  anymore. Let it all dissolve.
• 25:19
  That's it. Gone, irrelevant, outdated.
• 25:26
  And if you could imagine that future, the future of more joy
• 25:32
  but much, much less cocaine, let me know by nodding your head.
• 25:49
  I want you to get a feeling your discernment will be tested.
• 26:01
  There is no failure, only feedback.
• 26:05
  But the clue to whether or not you've been discerning is guilt
• 26:10
  or shame. When you truly meet your
• 26:13
  standards, you can be proud of your choices.
• 26:19
  But if you fall short of that line that represents
• 26:22
  discernment, guilt, disappointment, or shame will
• 26:28
  come not to punish you, but as a feedback loop to let you know if
• 26:34
  you're moving in the right direction.
• 26:38
  Until it will be day after day of no guilt, no shame.
• 26:44
  And that lets you know that you're operating in this new
• 26:51
  identity with that new level of discernment.
• 26:55
  And there will be physical clues.
• 26:59
  There's pain around your nose, sleeping better, eating better,
• 27:09
  feeling stronger, smiling more. And I wonder how soon it will be
• 27:17
  until that Switch clicks into place and you get a life of much
• 27:24
  more joy and much less guilt and shame and exhaustion and pain.
• 27:33
  Maybe that Switch has already been clicked, or maybe it's on
• 27:38
  its way. It's time to leave this place.
• 27:43
  Float all the way back to your present, but taking a new
• 27:48
  feeling of discernment, a new meaning that cocaine steals joy
• 27:55
  doesn't give it. A feeling that some things just
• 28:01
  aren't worth it. Representing that new level of
• 28:05
  discernment and looking forward to a future more freedom, more
• 28:12
  health, more happiness, and more real joy.
• 28:16
  So take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your
• 28:21
  nose. Just wiggle your fingers and
• 28:24
  wiggle your toes. Connect and calibrate into the
• 28:27
  here and the now as I now count from 1:00 to 10:00 to awaken
• 28:35
  you. Starting to count. 123 waking
• 28:39
  up, 456 more alert. 7-8 open. Your eyes open.
• 28:44
  Your eyes 910 Wide awake, wide awake, wide awake.
