The hypnosis technique discussed in this session is the inner smile for stress management. The session begins with relaxation and deep breathing exercises to help the listener become more relaxed. The listener is then guided to imagine walking down a path and arriving at a safe space. In this safe space, they are encouraged to sit quietly and soak in the peacefulness. The listener is then asked to imagine a loved one with a big smile on their face and to take this smile into their heart and let it spread throughout their body. The session ends with the listener being brought back to the present time and place, feeling revitalized and ready to go about their day. Hi, today's hypnosis technique is going to be on the inner smile for stress management. Let's begin. I now invite you to sit back and relax into your chair. Sit comfortably with arms and legs uncrossed. Notice how comfortable and supportive you are in your chair. In synchronization with your out breaths, count from 1 to 5 slowly, and then allow your eyes to close naturally. Take some time to deepen. Breathe in 3 deep, slow breaths, and on the exhale, feel any tension leaving your body. Feel your body becoming more and more relaxed. When you are ready, return to your natural breathing. Become aware of your breathing pattern. Feel your body relaxing more and more. You are naturally and easily going deeper and deeper. Take a few moments to observe and experience each breath. Soon, you notice you are becoming more and more relaxed. As you relax, know that you are open to a feeling of well-being. Be aware of your body becoming more and more relaxed as you go deeper and deeper. Know that your journey today will be for your highest and best good. Each time you allow yourself to go into this trance state, you will find you go deeper and deeper more smoothly and quickly. Take a moment of silence to enjoy feeling so relaxed and comfortable. The next time you hear my voice, you will go even deeper. When you are ready, use your imagination to experience a path in front of you. Start walking down your path and notice the surroundings. Notice your body walking. Feel the golden light of the sun as it warms the top of your head. Take in the fresh air as you enjoy your walk. Listen for the sounds that are around you. Notice your feet as they take you down the path. This is a wonderful journey and you are open to what it brings. Continue walking down your path as you allow yourself to go deeper and deeper with each step. Just let your subconscious mind wander as you walk along your path. Just continue to follow the sound of my voice. As you are walking, you notice you are coming to an opening on the path. Once you are there, you have arrived at your safe space. Take a moment to imagine your lovely, peaceful space. Notice how safe and comfortable you are. When you are ready, find a place to just sit quietly. Soak in the peacefulness. Notice the sounds, the sights, and the feelings of this place. Settle in comfortably and become even more relaxed. Your mind wanders enjoying this experience, so go deeper and enjoy the process. Now imagine a loved one walking toward you with a big smile on their face. Pay attention to your natural response to this smile. Take this smile into your heart and let it permeate every part of it. With every beat of your heart, let this smile begin to spread throughout your body, circulating and nourishing every part of your body through your bloodstream. Allow this smile to move into your feet and up into your ankles, calves, and thighs. Let it move into your hips and pelvic region, healing and nourishing every organ and muscle. As your heart beats, allow this smile to fill your belly. With every breath, feel the smile move into your chest and ribcage, filling your lungs with the warmth of this smile. Imagine this warm, appreciative smile overflowing now into your shoulders and down your arms, all the way into your fingertips. Let this smile move and penetrate through the muscles of your neck, softening all parts of your throat and neck. With every breath, feel the smile spread into your own mouth and lips. As you smile, notice how your whole face smiles too, even your eyes. Let this smile penetrate into your brain, allowing your brain to transmit it to all parts of your body through the nervous system, moving throughout every muscle, tissue, and organ of your body. Let your body and being smile. Receive the well-being within you now. Prepare to return to the present time and place, knowing you can bring with you the benefits you've received here. Anytime you need to feel better or calm yourself, you can simply remember this smile within your heart. Now take a deep breath, while at the same time experiencing the oxygen revitalizing your brain, getting ready to come back to the room. I'm going to count from five to one, and on one, you will be fully revitalized and back in the room. Five, you begin to feel the trance lighten. Four, you are becoming aware of your environment. Three, you feel the seat that is supporting you. Two, you have a wonderful feeling of well-being that will last you through the day. One, take a deep breath and feel the oxygen rejuvenate your body, feeling very positive and happy to go about your day. When you are ready, open your eyes.
