Self Hypnosis And Mind Power
The power of your Mind is truly awesome. You can use your
mental powers to achieve success that, up until now, you
have only ever dreamed of. It is a Universal truth that
life tends to move you towards the physical equivalent of
your predominant thoughts and feelings. A great many people
are well aware of this fact but most find it extremely
difficult to apply this knowledge and put it to work
effectively in their lives. Are you one of those people? If
you are, then do not worry because I am about to show you
how to overcome this little problem.
It seems to most of us that our thoughts are random,
sometimes erratic and beyond our control. Our emotions
truly do run us most of the time. When we have an emotional
response to a thing we tend to go into automatic thinking
as the subconscious programs in our mind take over. All too
often these programs are just rehashed memories that create
negative emotions and negative thoughts that hinder us from
moving in the life direction that we really want. Our
dominant thoughts and feelings are usually negative in
nature due to the conditioning that has taken over on this
planet.
The key to creating the life of your dreams then is to make
your automatic thinking and feeling reactions more positive
in nature and more in alignment with your desires. This may
sound like a tall order but there are many great techniques
and tools to accomplish this. One of the best tools to
recondition your mind for success is self hypnosis.
Hypnosis has been used by wise men and women for centuries
to create relaxed physical and mental states and condition
the mind to respond differently to outside stimuli. It is
just as relevant and effective today as it ever has been.
In fact with technological breakthroughs and advances in
mind conditioning it is possible to create profound lasting
change with self hypnosis recordings.
Many of the new recordings, by the best hypnotherapists,
include binaural beat technology which entrains the brain
to enter into specific mental states ideal for learning and
reconditioning, and NLP exercises. Many of these recordings
are of extremely high quality and there are titles for just
about everything you can think of.
However, it is possible to teach yourself to go into trance
and formulate your own post-hypnotic suggestions. These can
be a list of simple affirmations that you mentally repeat
while in the deeper stages of trance. I find it better to
use pre-made recordings or have my own custom hypnosis CDs
made as I like to let my mind wander during the trance
state.
The trance state is so relaxing that most times you don't
really want to leave it as the conscious mind becomes
extremely lazy while hypnotized. This is why I prefer
pre-made sessions or to visit a trained hypnotherapist.
However, if you prefer to perform your own hypnotic
session, which many people do, you must first ensure that
you have a clear intention about your purpose and the
objective you have in mind before you enter into a hypnotic
state. Ask yourself what you want to achieve from the
hypnotic session.
You can use self hypnosis and post hypnotic suggestions
very effectively to make any mental or emotional change you
can think of.
Once you have decided what it is you want to achieve from
your hypnotic session write a few affirmations that reflect
your desires. Write them in the first person and third
person. For example if you wish to develop more confidence
you would write "I grow more confident everyday" and
"[state your name] you grow more confident everyday".
Also form a mental picture of what that new confident you
looks like. Imagine how you will feel when you have that
new found confidence. How does that confident you walk,
talk, react to people and situations? How does that
confident you think, dress and what is their approach life?
This picture is very important. During trance you will
picture that confident you standing before you and bring it
to life in your mind's eye. Then you will step into this
confident you and actually become that person. Afterwards
you should recite your affirmations while thinking, feeling
and imagining you walk, talk, dress and approach life as
this confident "other" you!
This form of self hypnosis incorporates NLP and is used to
directly program your subconscious so that it will help you
create that confident you in the real world. The
affirmations act as post-hypnotic suggestions which
reinforce the NLP work and ensure your subconscious mind
holds the correct "self-talk" that you are constantly
involved in during the day. This inner dialogue can make or
break a person and it is important to program your mind
with positive messages.
To create a state of trance in order to perform these
mental sequences is quite easy. First find a quiet restful
place where you will not be disturbed. Once there sit or
lie down in a comfortable position. Keep your head looking
straight ahead and lift your eyes to look at a spot on the
wall just above eye level.
Count from 20 down to 10 in a slow manner until you feel
your eyes start to strain. You will want to close them.
Allow your eyelids to close and continue counting until you
reach the number 1.
Then imagine that a long winding staircase with 20 steps is
there in front of you. Move to the first step as you
mentally say, "20. Down, down, down, deeper deeper and
deeper". Then take the next step and say, "19. Deeper and
deeper still". Then move to the next step and say, "18.
Down, down, down, deeper deeper and deeper". Then the next
saying, "17. Deeper and deeper still."
Continue this until you reach the last step and imagine
that the staircase has led you to a door. Open the door.
Open it and see what is there. This is your special
sanctuary where you are relaxed and safe at all times.
Once you enter your sanctuary perform the mental exercise
given above. When you are finished your exercises, count up
from 1 to 10 telling yourself that you are becoming wide
awake with every number. You will find that when you return
to normal consciousness you are fully revitalized yet calm
and relaxed. Perform your self hypnosis everyday for 30
days and you will have created permanent changes in your
mind and body. Your self hypnosis sessions and results are
now only limited by your own imagination! Have fun.
