The tracks are
normally recorded onto a Cd, ipod, cell-phone or an mp3
player. First the
Induction, then the particular Affirmation (stop smoking,
weight-loss) and finally the Wake-up track, in that
order. eg. 1. Tropical
Beach hypnotic induction 2. Quit
smoking or Weight-loss, or Phobia etc. 3. Wake
up Stereo headphones
help achieve a deeper trance for the advantage of the
binaural brainwaves. Your hypnotic
trance maybe instant or progressive. Some people go very
deep in their first session, while others need some time.
This is purely genetic and has no placebo effect.
Some people
listen to the tracks in bed before going to sleep, but I
personally get more results using the sessions during the
day time, on the sofa. To deepen any
trance, listen to the tracks, and at the same time
concentrate on your breathing, making each breath the
same, try to breath using your diaphragm, easily, deep
and rhythmic. The process of thinking about your
breathing is very hypnotic, mainly because it relieves a
major task from the subconscious mind. When listening to
the tracks, try to avoid analyzing and questioning, and
become more passive to enjoy the journey and the sounds.
Turn off the
telephones, and make sure that you won't get disturbed.
If you're tense, to relax your body first starting with
the feet, tense the foot muscles for a couple of seconds
and then relax them, then onto the legs, then stomach,
shoulders, back, neck, and head in this order, finally
letting any negative tensions flow down the arms and fly
off out of the hands. If you have 2 or
more different hypnotic sessions eg. (stop smoking and
alcoholemia) it is better to concentrate on one session
for a few weeks before using the other one. Mixing the
affirmations seems to confuse the subconscious mind and
dilutes the power and effect. A light to medium
state of hypnosis is all that is necessary to effectively
communicate the affirmations. Many people experience
excellent results while in their own minds they are
"still waiting to be hypnotized" because after the
hypnotic session they remembered everything and don't
"feel" that hypnosis really occurred. They may have only
experienced a feeling of relaxation. Regardless of how
deep the state of hypnosis, the success of the
hypnotherapy is due to its ability to bypass the "door to
change" that has been put up by the conscious mind. This
bypass does not require deep hypnosis or somnambulism.
Hypnotherapy does not require that the client be "put
under" and or experience amnesia. Some tricks for a
deeper trance: If you want to go
even deeper then you should practise with some
visualization. Try to imagine a
butterfly or some other object and watch how it flutters,
concentrate on the details. If you have difficulty at
first you could watch a butterfly on youtube, and then
try closing your eyes now and again. Then using your
others senses, try to imagine the smell of things, like a
perfume, a salty sea breeze. etc. Imagine touching things
with your eyes closed. Imagine how it feels like to touch
a rock, or a slab of marble, putting your hand into a
pale of water, a soft fabric, or caressing a pet.
You may be
wondering why there is a scary terrorific induction,
which doesn't seem so relaxing, but this induction works
by increasing adrenaline and alertness followed by the
shock of the scream. Then in less than 1 second you hear
the word "sleep". This is how some hypnotists use the
rapid inductions such as the handshake. (they push the
subject backwards to shock them, and shout
"sleep")
