• 0:40
  Hi, it's Adam here. And in this episode of The
• 0:43
  Hypnotist, you're going to be listening to a hypnosis session
• 0:47
  to bring about a resource state, which probably sounds
• 0:51
  counterintuitive, and that is because it has. 2.
• 0:55
  Resources that are almost polar. Opposite.
• 1:00
  And that is passion and indifference, and it was
• 1:03
  actually created. For.
• 1:05
  A client that. Used to head.
• 1:07
  Up a department and because they had then taken a less
• 1:13
  responsibility role, found themselves with.
• 1:17
  People, they used to. Line manage now being their boss
• 1:20
  and creating difficult situations for them and that was
• 1:24
  triggering for them and what they wanted, what the ideal
• 1:27
  outcome for them was to be passionate about the work that
• 1:32
  they do but kind of indifferent about the politics and the game
• 1:35
  playing that can happen in certain.
• 1:38
  Corporate. Situations, and you can think of
• 1:40
  it as the stoic pendulum of acceptance and control.
• 1:44
  Acceptance and control are polar opposites, and yet both are.
• 1:48
  Highly useful. To manage difficult situations.
• 1:51
  So this is passionate indifference, and I'd like you
• 1:55
  to think about where in your life would you like to feel more
• 1:59
  passion for and more enthusiasm for, and where would you like?
• 2:02
  To feel. Like you don't really care.
• 2:05
  More ambivalence, more indifference, and you might find
• 2:08
  that the. Ability to.
• 2:10
  Effortlessly switch between being very enthusiastic and
• 2:14
  passionate about certain things and almost like you couldn't
• 2:17
  care less about something else. Becomes a superpower to really
• 2:21
  think about. Which of these resource states
• 2:25
  would be most useful for different contexts in your life?
• 2:29
  It was created. For a.
• 2:30
  Specific individual. Therefore, some of the
• 2:32
  references might relate to certain corporate situations
• 2:35
  that you just don't recognize or resonate with because it was
• 2:39
  created for them. In which case, disregard
• 2:42
  anything that doesn't quite fit and hone into anything that
• 2:45
  does. And if you do like the idea of
• 2:47
  some kind of a bespoke session created.
• 2:50
  For you. There will be a link in the show
• 2:52
  notes where you can schedule that free 30 minute Zoom
• 2:54
  consultation. Call with me and we'll have a
• 2:57
  chat just to see if I'm the right a hypnotherapist to be
• 2:59
  working with you. In the meantime, this session
• 3:02
  might be helpful. So find a quiet, comfortable
• 3:05
  place where you won't be disturbed.
• 3:07
  Relax and enjoy the session. Take a deep breath in, and as
• 3:41
  you breathe in, just imagine breathing in pure concentrated
• 3:51
  relaxation and breathe in that relaxation, allowing it to be
• 3:58
  distributed to every cell in your body.
• 4:06
  And as you exhale, feel any tension, any stress, any
• 4:16
  worries, feeling like it's being displaced and leaving your body
• 4:25
  in your outward breath, maybe you can think of the relaxation
• 4:34
  like oxygen and any tension like carbon dioxide.
• 4:42
  Breathing in what your body needs and exhaling anything
• 4:48
  you've been holding on to that isn't necessary.
• 4:59
  And the deeper you breathe, the more relaxed you become as you
• 5:04
  allow tension in your body to just be released.
• 5:09
  With every breath, feel yourself going deeper into comfort,
• 5:16
  deeper into relaxation, deeper into a state of effortless
• 5:30
  awareness, Eyelids feeling heavier and heavier as you
• 5:38
  realize with your eyes closed just how much more of your
• 5:43
  attention you can give to the sound of my voice.
• 5:53
  Feel the rhythm of your breathing, steady and calm as
• 5:59
  your mind begins to slow down, to settle, to open.
• 6:12
  And I wonder if you can imagine a warm wave of relaxation
• 6:17
  flowing from the top of your head, down the muscles of your
• 6:22
  face, into your jaw, and then the even further down into your
• 6:27
  shoulders, your arms, your chest, deeper into your core.
• 6:35
  Feel the ripples of that wave going down through your legs,
• 6:40
  all the way deep down to the tips of your toes.
• 6:48
  And this wave washes away all tension, all distractions,
• 6:55
  leaving only a clear open space in your mind.
• 7:03
  And as you harness that state of resourceful relaxation,
• 7:09
  amplified, and I wonder if you can imagine yourself standing at
• 7:18
  the edge of a large yet serene ocean, where the water before
• 7:28
  you is calm yet powerful. I want you to get a sense that
• 7:38
  the waves almost have purpose, giving you a feeling of
• 7:50
  turbulence and movement and yet sometimes shifting to calm.
• 7:57
  I want you to get a sense that maybe the ocean represents the
• 8:04
  good and the bad in a part of your life right now.
• 8:11
  When it feels calm and settled and predictable, you enjoy the
• 8:16
  ocean. But maybe when it feels
• 8:20
  turbulent, dangerous, or unpredictable, it can leave you
• 8:27
  feeling triggered. I want you to imagine a small
• 8:36
  Pebble being tossed into the water.
• 8:42
  A slight disturbance, a momentary ripple.
• 8:47
  But the ocean is vast. The ripple is insignificant.
• 8:56
  In fact, within seconds it's impossible to see any clues of
• 9:05
  that Pebble hitting the waves at all.
• 9:14
  I want you to get a sense that what if your emotional resources
• 9:24
  were as vast as the ocean? That any attempt to provoke you
• 9:34
  is nothing more than a tiny Pebble in your vast ocean.
• 9:42
  It's there, you can acknowledge it, it just doesn't have any
• 9:48
  impact on you. If your emotional resources was
• 9:54
  a small pond, the same Pebble would absolutely have an impact,
• 10:02
  but your emotional resources is a vast ocean.
• 10:10
  Any attempt to provoke niggle touches the surface, but it does
• 10:19
  not change the depth of who you are or what you are capable of.
• 10:31
  I want you to get a sense that people around you may have their
• 10:35
  own agendas, their own games, their own frustrations and their
• 10:44
  own fears, but that is theirs to hold.
• 10:51
  And you recognize from this point onwards, their games don't
• 10:58
  have to be your games. Their agendas certainly don't
• 11:04
  need to be yours. I want you to get a sense that
• 11:14
  sometimes just by being aware, you can diffuse any element of
• 11:22
  being triggered. You start to evaluate what truly
• 11:30
  matters, That if something is important, you address it with
• 11:37
  clarity and purpose. But not everything is.
• 11:43
  Some things are just noise, just a distraction, just politics.
• 11:51
  And when that's the case, you remain completely indifferent.
• 12:01
  The ocean does not change who it is because a purple is thrown
• 12:04
  into it. Feel that wonderful sense of
• 12:11
  objectivity. Just by knowing the games and
• 12:16
  the politics helps you to be immune to any triggers, any
• 12:24
  attempts of provocation. I want you to create an image in
• 12:33
  your mind's eye. Will you see yourself stepping
• 12:37
  into your workplace or the primary means of doing your
• 12:41
  work? Maybe a Zoom call, but see
• 12:46
  yourself with a slightly different facial expression and
• 12:51
  slightly different body language.
• 12:56
  There is a new sense of calm, confidence and ease.
• 13:03
  Your presence is calm. It exudes confidence.
• 13:09
  See yourself deeply engaged in the work that excites you, that
• 13:14
  fuels you, that drives you forward.
• 13:18
  See yourself with the facial expressions of passion and
• 13:22
  dedication. But yet alongside this passion
• 13:29
  there is a powerful indifference.
• 13:34
  You are indifferent to distractions, indifferent to
• 13:39
  unnecessary conflict, indifferent to game playing.
• 13:48
  I want you to get a sense that this is the perfect balance, the
• 13:55
  yin and the Yang. The passion keeps your standards
• 14:02
  high, but the indifference keeps you safe from being provoked.
• 14:10
  You're just not willing to play that game anymore.
• 14:19
  I want you to get a sense that if this environment is not right
• 14:23
  for you, you realise you have so many different options.
• 14:31
  You are not trapped. You are there because you choose
• 14:35
  to be there. And if you choose not to be
• 14:39
  there, then you won't. And that freedom makes you
• 14:46
  untouchable. Step into that version of you
• 14:51
  with that passionate indifference as you feel the
• 14:56
  ease of this truth settling into your mind, into your very core,
• 15:03
  A powerful, unshakable knowing that guides you forward
• 15:09
  effortlessly and confidently. In fact, let's go forwards in
• 15:19
  time to something that's plausible in the future, where
• 15:26
  you could be interrupted, criticized, given an unwinnable
• 15:31
  task. But let's experience this with
• 15:38
  this state of passionate indifference.
• 15:45
  Perhaps you could imagine Zoom call picture the faces of
• 15:50
  certain people criticizing your work, your competency, talking
• 15:58
  over you, interrupting you. But notice your inner dialogue
• 16:05
  is playful, curious and intrigued, almost like a.
• 16:18
  The thought is for you to decipher what games are being
• 16:23
  played without taking the bait, as you consider yourself an
• 16:31
  intelligent mouse, seeing the cheese on the trap but not
• 16:36
  willing to take a nibble. You know it's there, You know
• 16:41
  the game is being played. Why would you voluntarily nibble
• 16:46
  the cheese when it's set to trigger a trap?
• 16:52
  So instead you feel this indifference.
• 16:58
  Allow them to have their traps and have their games.
• 17:02
  You will choose to be passionate about your work, but indifferent
• 17:08
  about all the nonsense and noise that goes on alongside it.
• 17:15
  Feel a sense of composure and calm and see them getting
• 17:20
  frustrated because you're not playing their game.
• 17:28
  Maybe they even look confused and that makes you smile.
• 17:34
  Perhaps just in your own mind, knowing that sometimes just once
• 17:44
  or twice the trigger doesn't work can sometimes mean the
• 17:51
  trigger never works again. So if it feels that you've got
• 17:59
  new resources and strategies to deal with similar things in the
• 18:04
  future, giving you a sense of distance and composure, a
• 18:10
  passionate indifference, just let me know by nodding your head
• 18:17
  and take that resource back with you.
• 18:20
  And that thinking noise inside your mind that the very thing
• 18:26
  that would cause you to feel frustrated now causes you to
• 18:30
  feel curious and intrigued. And because of that, many of
• 18:39
  these triggers just won't work anymore.
• 18:43
  Just like a light switch. If someone's cut the cable from
• 18:47
  behind the switch, someone could desperately try and press the
• 18:52
  light switch, but the light would never go on.
• 18:56
  They just wouldn't know that the cable is cut behind it.
• 19:01
  I want you to feel that you've now rewired your mind.
• 19:07
  Things that used to trigger you now won't, or perhaps will turn
• 19:14
  on a different light, A light of intrigue, curiosity, and
• 19:22
  indifference, when it's useful to keep you calm, composed, and
• 19:31
  safe. Keep hold of that passion for
• 19:37
  your work, even if your work ends up being something entirely
• 19:43
  different. Start to leave that thought and
• 19:50
  that ocean and feel that you do indeed have an ocean of
• 19:58
  resources within, and no Pebble can change that.
• 20:06
  So take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your
• 20:12
  nose. Just wiggle your fingers and
• 20:15
  wiggle your toes. Connect fully into the here and
• 20:17
  now as I now count from 1:00 to 10:00 to awaken you.
• 20:24
  Starting to count 123 Waking up 456.
• 20:30
  More alert 7-8 Open your eyes. Open your eyes 910.
• 20:36
  Wide awake, Wide awake. Wide awake.
