• 0:05
  Welcome to The Hypnotist, the show that gives you inside
• 0:09
  access to cutting edge hypnosis with real clients facing
• 0:12
  genuine. Issues.
• 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 Evans 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
  Hi, it's Adam here. And I'm wondering if you are
• 0:43
  still attached to maybe guilt, shame or some kind of regrets
• 0:48
  from your past and that's. Because the.
• 0:51
  Client that this hypnosis session that you're about to
• 0:54
  listen to was based on was for a client that even though.
• 0:58
  The. Guilt and blame did not belong
• 1:01
  to them. They were still carrying it and
• 1:03
  it was related to suicides earlier on in their life and.
• 1:08
  They still felt. An element of blame and that's a
• 1:12
  natural part of the grief cycle. The grief process is what's
• 1:16
  called the stage of bargaining, where people think, should I or
• 1:20
  could I have done something different and therefore.
• 1:23
  Because there's a. Thought of, well, maybe I could
• 1:26
  have done something different that then creates this element
• 1:29
  of because I didn't, therefore I'm culpable.
• 1:32
  Now, that isn't true. Nobody has a time machine, and
• 1:34
  if people had a time machine, they would absolutely go back
• 1:37
  and do things differently. But we don't, and you know that.
• 1:42
  Element of feeling. Emotional pain linked to the
• 1:44
  past can be quite a heavy burden.
• 1:47
  So this hypnosis session uses elements of levels of
• 1:51
  disassociation. It also has a perspective of
• 1:55
  going back to the past, seeing things in a different way, but
• 1:59
  also something called acceptance and commitment therapy.
• 2:02
  And Stephen Hayes is probably the most famous, let's say
• 2:06
  therapist connected to act as it's known and it's.
• 2:10
  Uses a lot of. Very powerful metaphors, and one
• 2:12
  of my favorite metaphors that relates to acceptance and
• 2:15
  commitment therapy is this idea of being attached to something
• 2:19
  heavy like a boulder or a rock, and being tethered to it.
• 2:25
  And now you've got a dilemma. There's this whole future that
• 2:28
  you want, but now you have a choice.
• 2:30
  You can either let go of that burden and pursue these
• 2:34
  wonderful things in your future or not have those wonderful
• 2:37
  things and forever be tethered to this heavy burden.
• 2:41
  And what that does is it creates a binary framework to make a
• 2:45
  decision. So this particular client,
• 2:48
  imagine being attached to a huge boulder and also being attached
• 2:52
  to it by a cord. Now this utilizes 2 metaphors,
• 2:57
  cord cutting and the bolder, the acceptance and commitment
• 3:01
  therapy metaphor that represents the blame and the shame and the
• 3:05
  guilt of the past. So there's a lot going on here.
• 3:09
  Now, it's unlikely that you're listening to this and there's
• 3:11
  been a suicide in your life. What's highly likely is that
• 3:15
  there is something that's happened in your past that still
• 3:18
  makes you feel a certain way. That might be resentment, that
• 3:21
  might be anger, that might be something else.
• 3:24
  In which case I would encourage you to think very carefully as
• 3:27
  to what is the thing that you want to let go of before this
• 3:31
  hypnosis session starts. Therefore, by setting the
• 3:34
  intention, you're going to get so much more value from this
• 3:37
  particular session. And if you like the idea of a
• 3:40
  personalized session with me rather than just listening to
• 3:42
  these recordings, there will be a link in the description where
• 3:45
  you can schedule a completely free consultation call.
• 3:48
  We'll have a chat over Zoom. And it might be the case that I
• 3:50
  end up being your hypnotherapist.
• 3:52
  For now, though, find a quiet, comfortable place where you
• 3:55
  won't be disturbed. Relax and enjoy the session.
• 4:34
  Take a deep breath in, and as you breathe in, breathe in that
• 4:46
  wonderful feeling of calm and relaxation, and as you exhale,
• 4:56
  feel a wonderful sense of release, as if any feelings of
• 5:07
  worries, stress or tension. Are starting to.
• 5:11
  Leave your body as you exhale, breathing in pure relaxation and
• 5:23
  exhaling tension, perhaps from around your forehead, your jaw,
• 5:31
  neck or shoulders, arms feeling limp and loose.
• 5:40
  And notice that the deeper you breathe, the more relaxed you
• 5:46
  become, and the more relaxed you become, the deeper you breathe.
• 5:58
  As your body relaxes, your imagination awakens and I wonder
• 6:04
  if you could imagine a beautiful Meadow.
• 6:10
  Not just any Meadow, a kind of Meadow that is awe inspiring,
• 6:20
  beauty, natural, a place that feels safe, sacred and even
• 6:30
  timeless. Imagine being barefooted on that
• 6:36
  Meadow, feeling the grass this soft and real, grounding beneath
• 6:44
  your feet, and I wonder if you could imagine the smell of sweet
• 6:54
  scent of wildflowers there in the breeze.
• 7:02
  The air is fresh, pure and filled with maybe the subtle
• 7:09
  song of birds in the distance. And I want you to imagine that
• 7:17
  you are not alone. I want you to see a child.
• 7:24
  You'll know the age, and imagine holding that child's hand, and I
• 7:32
  want you to see that standing around you both are four Native
• 7:40
  American warriors, protectors of your spirit.
• 7:48
  Their faces are calm and strong, and they represent powerful
• 7:56
  resources, perhaps courage, honor, strength, or wisdom.
• 8:05
  They are protectors, and each one stands at a direction,
• 8:13
  north-south, east and West, forming a circle of protection
• 8:19
  around you. And then notice the innocence of
• 8:27
  that child. Maybe you see part of yourself
• 8:37
  in that child. Gentleness, pureness, innocence,
• 8:46
  vulnerability. And maybe that is a part of you.
• 8:54
  But. Experience the world before you
• 9:00
  ever started, carrying burdens that were never yours.
• 9:09
  And the protectors stand guard, ensuring that nothing harmful
• 9:14
  can enter this sacred space. And maybe you feel their energy
• 9:22
  surrounding you like a circle of light, a feeling of safety and
• 9:30
  belonging, a reminder that at some level you have always been
• 9:38
  protected, even when you didn't know it.
• 9:47
  And as you breathe in that sense of safety, you can begin to
• 9:53
  notice the way the sunlight dances on the field, the way the
• 10:00
  clouds drift slowly by. And with each breath, your body
• 10:08
  drifts deeper into calm, your mind deeper into peace, and your
• 10:19
  heart deeper into healing. And I want you to imagine
• 10:28
  somewhere not far away, and maybe still within that sacred
• 10:33
  circle, is a portal, a gateway to another place, another level
• 10:46
  of awareness. The small child stays in the
• 10:53
  circle, protected, but you find yourself walking through the
• 10:59
  portal and when you arrive at the other side.
• 11:05
  Imagine finding yourself in rural India.
• 11:13
  Perhaps you're in a mountainous part.
• 11:19
  Imagine you've been hiking or walking, maybe for days or
• 11:23
  weeks, until the air is cooler, thinner.
• 11:30
  As you keep climbing higher up in the mountains, feel yourself
• 11:37
  walking upwards, feeling your body growing lighter with each
• 11:43
  step, as though the higher you climb, the more the heavy
• 11:54
  energies of the past fall away behind you and far below.
• 12:06
  You can see the valleys, villages glowing with tiny
• 12:11
  lights like constellations on the earth.
• 12:18
  And just imagine hearing chanting or perhaps other sounds
• 12:27
  there in the wind, something that sounds part human, part
• 12:33
  divine. As you continue on your journey
• 12:41
  upwards, imagine seeing the small guest house, simple,
• 12:50
  beautiful and welcoming. And I want you to imagine the
• 12:58
  door opens and a woman with kind maternal eyes greets you.
• 13:07
  She welcomes you inside as though she has been expecting
• 13:11
  you, and you're struck by the warmth, the emotional warmth,
• 13:20
  but also the warmth of a nearby fire glowing.
• 13:27
  Feel the warmth on your skin and notice how the light flickers,
• 13:33
  filling the room. Maybe there's smells in this
• 13:39
  place that take you back to that feeling of being protected, safe
• 13:45
  and welcomed. And maybe you see it by the fire
• 13:53
  and feel completely safe and completely accepted.
• 14:04
  And as you gaze into the fire, I want you to imagine your mind
• 14:10
  takes you away, perhaps to a different place on the mountain,
• 14:21
  but a place in the daytime, an imaginary journey.
• 14:28
  And you find yourself there, on a mountainside, attached to a
• 14:38
  large boulder. It surfaces, rough, heavy,
• 14:46
  ancient. And you realize this boulder
• 14:52
  represents the burden that you've been carrying, perhaps
• 15:00
  echoes of guilt, false responsibilities, blame that was
• 15:06
  never justified. I want you to imagine just how
• 15:14
  heavy, perhaps even unmovable, this boulder is.
• 15:25
  And part of this boulder has already served you well,
• 15:32
  amplifying your kind hearted nature, honing a mission to help
• 15:43
  others. But imagine that this boulder,
• 15:53
  as predictable and familiar as it is, is now holding you back
• 16:05
  for a while. It helped you make sense of the
• 16:09
  senseless, helped you to feel control over the uncontrollable.
• 16:21
  But that boulder is not who you are.
• 16:26
  It was only something that you became attached to.
• 16:34
  And I want you to notice the boulder is tied to your waist
• 16:40
  with a thick rope. A rope of attachment woven from
• 16:48
  thoughts, like if only I should have done something, maybe I
• 16:55
  could have done more. And each strand of that rope
• 17:01
  formed from moments of compassion, misunderstood and
• 17:08
  misinterpreted as guilt. And as you look at that rope,
• 17:16
  you can feel fearless, sense that life beyond the rope is
• 17:25
  full of limitless potential and possibilities.
• 17:32
  But while you're attached to the rope and the boulder, you are
• 17:38
  tethered like a dog on a leash in a garden, limited by a
• 17:49
  certain radius. But I want you to feel now is
• 17:56
  the time to let go. And you don't need to understand
• 18:04
  everything to release it. You don't need to figure it out.
• 18:14
  You don't need to find meaning in pain to move on from that
• 18:22
  pain. Because healing isn't about
• 18:28
  figuring out the past. It's about freeing yourself to
• 18:35
  move forward, wiser, with more experience and even more
• 18:44
  compassion. And I want you to imagine that
• 18:55
  same woman that welcomed you in to her guest house now hands you
• 19:06
  a small ceremonial knife, a symbol of choice and freedom.
• 19:14
  Can imagine her looking directly into your eyes with love and
• 19:19
  certainty saying you are ready. She disappears and you're left
• 19:33
  with the boulder and the rope. With a choice, you can remain
• 19:40
  attached to the boulder and limited, still attached to
• 19:46
  guilt, blame, or responsibilities that were never
• 19:51
  yours. Or you can Cut the Rope, be
• 20:00
  untethered, and move forwards. So imagine lifting the knife and
• 20:09
  placing it against the rope. That tethers you to the boulder,
• 20:19
  and with one steady breath in and a deep exhale, you cut the
• 20:28
  cord. The rope falls away and the
• 20:39
  boulder begins to no longer be attached to you.
• 20:49
  I want you to imagine how liberated you feel going way
• 20:55
  beyond the radius where you were limited from before.
• 21:03
  As you walk away from the boulder, you realize it is now
• 21:09
  in your past and all of the resources are in your future.
• 21:18
  Feel your body become lighter, like a weight has been lifted
• 21:22
  from your shoulders. That your heart is becoming
• 21:27
  freer, your mind clearer because you are now untethered from your
• 21:36
  past, unbound from false responsibility, and released
• 21:44
  from the weight of guilt that was never yours to carry.
• 21:52
  Then you may even notice a smile of acceptance coming to your
• 22:00
  face, a sign of peace, of surrender, of knowing that you
• 22:06
  can finally just be. And from that mountainside, I
• 22:17
  want you to imagine seeing everything below valleys,
• 22:22
  rivers, clouds. And from this higher vantage
• 22:27
  point, imagine seeing your whole life, past, present and future,
• 22:37
  as part of a much bigger picture.
• 22:42
  As if every soul has its path and their choices were never
• 22:48
  yours to control. You were part of their story,
• 22:55
  but not the author of their endings.
• 23:01
  And so from this higher self perspective, I want you to send
• 23:07
  love to those that are no longer here.
• 23:14
  You are no longer tethered to them and they are no longer
• 23:18
  tethered to you. They are free.
• 23:23
  You are free and you feel perhaps somewhere, at some
• 23:34
  level, they receive it and they send love back to you.
• 23:42
  You can feel that love circle through time, reaching the small
• 23:48
  child in the Meadow, reassuring them that at no point were they
• 23:57
  ever to blame. They are safe and they are free
• 24:03
  and there is nothing left to figure out, only life left to
• 24:10
  live. And then imagine staring into a
• 24:16
  flickering fire, realizing that the boulder in the mountain was
• 24:24
  just a journey in your imagination.
• 24:28
  And as you leave that friendly guest house, walk back back
• 24:36
  through a portal, back to a sacred circle, and give that
• 24:42
  young child a hug. Tell them they are loved, that
• 24:45
  they are worthy and they are free.
• 24:48
  And now it's time to drift back to your present.
• 24:56
  Without the weight of the past and without any burdens.
• 25:02
  You will return liberated and free.
• 25:07
  So take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your
• 25:12
  nose. Wiggle your fingers and wiggle
• 25:15
  your toes. Connect and calibrate into the
• 25:17
  here and the now as I now count from 1:00 to 10:00 to awaken
• 25:24
  you. Starting to count 123 waking up
• 25:32
  456 more alert 7-8. Open your eyes.
• 25:37
  Open your eyes 910. Wide awake.
• 25:42
  Wide awake. Wide awake.
