			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Positive affirmations are commonly used in hypnosis to help the subconscious mind take on a certain suggestion. The idea is that with constant repetition you will begin to believe that something is true. As the saying goes, “If you say something often enough it becomes true”.</p>
<p>Creating a good positive affirmation is simple. Think of something you wish was true about yourself and fashion a phrase or multiple phrases around it. For example, if you wish to become a more confident person you might use the positive affirmations below.</p>
<p><em>“I feel comfortable around other people.”<br />
“My value is appreciated by everyone.”<br />
“I am a calm, confident person.”<br />
</em><br />
While positive affirmations can be effective repeated to yourself normally, I find that they work much better as suggestions during a hypnotic trance which is why I have created this script for use with affirmations and achieving goals.</p>
<p>The idea for this script was inspired by a recent article at HypnoBusters, <a href="http://www.hypnobusters.com/articles/howtoachieveyourgoals.html">How To Achieve Your Goals</a> which you may want to read before learning this self <a href="http://www.hypnobusters.com/hypnosisdownloads/theultimateselfhypnosisscriptbook.html">hypnosis script</a>.</p>
<p>-</p>
<p><strong>Direction:</strong> Find a warm, comfortable place where you can relax and not be disturbed for around fifteen minutes. This script is to be read slowly and deliberately</p>
<p>Begin by trying to roll your eyes back up into forehead and keep them there. You will quickly begin to feel your eyes feeling heavy and tired. Hold your eyes in this position for as long as you can before they simply have to close.</p>
<p>Now, with your eyes closed, take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your nose. Notice how the air feels cold as it hits your nostrils on inhalation and warm as you exhale. Build a rhythm of slow, deep breathing.</p>
<p>Begin to visualize yourself in the third person, as if you are having an outer body experience. You look calm and perfectly relaxed. Your breathing is steady and your body is loose and limp. Focus entirely on yourself, in this visualization you are the only thing that matters. There is no background or any other objects to distract you. Just your own body in this peaceful state.</p>
<p>You start to feel yourself moving down. Visually it is hard to tell that you are moving down, but you get that unmistakable feeling that your body is sinking ever downwards towards something that you cannot yet see. As your body is taken down you begin to feel a warmth in your stomach. This warmth spreads all throughout your body.</p>
<p>It is now you realize that you are back in your own body, no longer looking on from afar. No sooner have you noticed that you are back inside your body but you also notice that the darkness around you has lifted and you are now laid back in a hammock that supports your body and sways gently in the warm breeze. As you look around you realize you are at a beach, but not just any beach. This is the most beautiful beach you could possibly imagine. The sea is a clear, crystal blue, the sand is a golden yellow and there is just a few white whispy clouds floating in the sky. The warmth of the sun radiates all over your body…you are the only person on your own personal dream beach.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-192" title="Ideal Beach" src="http://www.nlphypnosissecrets.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Gili_Meno_West_Coast-300x180.jpg" alt="Ideal Beach" width="300" height="180" /></p>
<p>As you bask in the beauty all around you, it is time to repeat your positive affirmations to yourself &#8211; whatever they be.</p>
<p><em>(Repeat your affirmations around twenty times. There is no need to count, just stop when you feel the time is right.)</em></p>
<p>I would now like you to spend some type thinking about what actions you are going to take to achieve your goal. Positive thinking is important, but without taking action thoughts are just thoughts. To breath life into them you must take action. So think about what you are actually going to do to make your affirmations come true.</p>
<p><em>(For the confidence example used above you could take acting classes, talk to people in situations that you normally wouldn’t or thrust yourself into positions where you have to speak in public.)</em></p>
<p>Now that you have set a goal and decided how you are going to achieve it, it is time to wake up. When you wake up you will remember everything you have thought during this session and feel motivated to turn these thoughts into action.</p>
<p>At the count of ten you will wake up fresh and alert and ready to achieve your goals.</p>
<p>1&#8230;Waking up.<br />
2&#8230;<br />
3&#8230;<br />
4&#8230;Eyes beginning to flutter open.<br />
5&#8230;<br />
6&#8230;<br />
7&#8230;Eyes open now.<br />
8&#8230;<br />
9&#8230;Aware of your surroundings.<br />
10&#8230; Fully wide awake.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have always found it a little strange that while many people are not willing to try hetero hypnosis (where one person hypnotizes another) while they are, at the same time, eager to learn self hypnosis. I have to suppose that it is an issue concerning trust. Me personally, I regularly use all forms of hypnosis as I know them to be helpful in almost all avenues of life.</p>
<p>I’m sure that you like me, will find self hypnosis easy to learn. It is nothing magical or mysterious but a natural state of awareness that anyone can tap into. In this article I will guide you into creating for yourself a power self hypnosis trance state.</p>
<p>Self hypnosis is a skill that is perhaps most commonly used as an aid to relaxation as it helps to quieten the mind. It can be used for a number of other things. You may have heard about people achieving great success after visiting a hypnotherapist. Even A-List celebrities such as Matt Damon and Samuel L. Jackson are known to have quit smoking after visiting as hypnotherapist. The fantastic news is that self hypnosis can do everything hetero hypnosis can do, and for most they feel much more comfortable and in control.</p>
<p>You will want to learn self hypnosis if you have any personal goals in life that you want to focus your mind on. As mentioned previously you can empower yourself to quit smoking or lose weight, these are common goals that can be achieved through a self hypnosis trance. Yet self hypnosis goes further there are even more incredible things you can achieve. It is entirely possible, for example, to use self hypnosis to increase your chances of a promotion at work, expand your love of learning or even heighten your confidence around other people.</p>
<p>Self hypnosis trance typically consists of three parts &#8211; the induction, a deepener and finally hypnotic suggestion. The suggestion can be whatever you desire depending on your personal goals. During self hypnosis you will still be aware of things happening around you and you can choose to stop at anytime, it is impossible to get “stuck” in self hypnosis. If you are a beginner to hypnotic trances then you can follow my short script below to get an idea of how self hypnosis works. Some people like to read scripts out aloud, some prefer to read it in their minds, others enjoy recording it themselves onto their computer and listening back to it when they desire. Whatever works best for you. You are left with no right or wrong choices. It is all about you.</p>
<p>Before you begin please find yourself in a comfortable position with your legs uncrossed to allow for proper circulation.</p>
<p><strong>Self Hypnosis Trance Script</strong></p>
<p>You can begin with your eyes open…Roll your eyes back as far as you can…After a few seconds you will feel your eyes begin to grow heavy…You want to close them as your eyelids become heavier and heavier…Keep your eyes open as long as you possibly can, until they just have to close…</p>
<p>As your eyes close allow your body to completely relax…Feel any tension in your muscles and let them become loose and limp…From the tip of your toes, to the top of your head…You know how beneficial relaxation is and that is why you want to become completely relaxed…Any other thoughts in your mind are becoming quieter and quieter until all you can hear is the sound of your own breathing, deep and slow…Deep and slow. Enjoy this experience until you feel completely relaxed.</p>
<p>Imagine now that you are standing at the top of a grand staircase with ten steps leading down to a large oak door…And you know that behind this door is your own personal dream location…Whatever that may be…Relaxed and calm to begin to walk down the stairs…With each step you take down your relaxation becomes deeper and deeper…When you have reached the bottom of the stairs you are as relaxed as can be…And now you can open the doors to reveal your dream location.</p>
<p>It may be a beach, or a garden or a green valley…Whatever you desire…Visualize this location down to the last detail…Picture the clouds in the sky…Feel the temperature on your skin…Listen to the sounds of nature around…As you enjoy your dream location you see a comfortable chair laid out especially for you…Take this chair and sit down as you look around at this wondrous location…You are so relaxed that your eyes feel heavy…Even here you can fall into a deep, relaxing sleep.</p>
<p>Now you begin to dream…As you dream you see yourself and it is not yourself as you know now…It is your ideal self…The person you truly want to be…As you notice how happy and healthy you appear in this dream your other self begins to tell you about themselves.<br />
<em><br />
[Include hypnotic suggestions here…the following example works well for weight loss]</em></p>
<p>I enjoy exercising…The food I eat is nutritious and healthy…As I enjoy exercise I visit the gym regularly…I only eat until my appetite is satiated…Because I exercise and eat right I lose weight…All my friends and family have told me how much better I look after I lost weight…Now I am at my ideal weight I still make sure to eat healthier and take regular exercise.</p>
<p>You now sense what you need to do…It is time to say goodbye to your idea self…Because you now know how though, this won’t be goodbye for long…You will soon see this ideal self staring back in the mirror at you…When you awaken from your dream you are back in your perfect relaxation have…You may now spend as much time here as you like before slowly opening your eyes and returning to the real world.</p>
<p>And when you wake up from your self hypnotic trance you will feel calm, peaceful and relaxed…Because you now know exactly how to meet your ideal self again in the near future.</p>
<p><em>[End]</em></p>
<p>As you become more experienced at practicing self hypnosis you will find your trances becoming deeper and the effects growing stronger within you.</p>
<p>I hope you have enjoyed your experience of a self hypnosis trance. I am sure I will discuss self hypnosis more in the future including more inductions and deepeners that you can use to hypnotize yourself.</p>
