1 Minute Self-Hypnosis Instructions

Self-hypnosis is one of the most effective and easy ways to help yourself. Even better – it’s free!

Self-hypnosis is a personal self-help technique that is proven to be effective when used to:

  • Get rid of old habits
  • Increase your confidence
  • Reduce your stress
  • Manage pain
  • Increase your creativity
The more you use self-hypnosis, the more you are reinforcing what you want.

 

Benefits of Self-hypnosis

  • It’s simple to learn
  • You can do it anytime (except when driving or operating machinery)
  • You’ll feel good every time you do it.
  • It takes about 1 minute

Self-hypnosis is an effective technique to help you achieve a goal. Essentially, you’ll be stating your goal in a positive statement, and will be repeating it ten times while in self-hypnosis. This repetition will help you to “program your subconscious mind” to motivate yourself and achieve your goal easily.

Creating Your Positive Statement

 

Generally when people want to change a habit or feel better, they tend to think first about what they DON’T want to do.

For example, if you want to lose weight, you might say to himself “I don’t want to eat cookies.”

Unfortunately, your subconscious mind doesn’t understand the word “don’t”.

When your subconscious mind hears “I don’t want to eat cookies.”,  it interprets it as “I want to eat cookies.”So, if your goal is to change your eating habits, then it’s important to create a personal statement indicating what you want.
For example, you might say: “I choose to eat fruit for dessert and I feel great.”
Before you begin self-hypnosis, take a few minutes and thing about something you want. For example you might want to:
  • Find your perfect partner
  • Get a better job
  • Lose weight
  • Exercise more
  • Get over your fears about speaking in public

While you are in self-hypnosis you’ll be imagining yourself in your future as if you have already reached your goal.

It may seem simple, but creating a personal statement properly can get pretty complex.
So, rather than worrying about the what to say while you are in self-hypnosis, here’s a great sentence to use. It will work beautifully with every goal you have:

“I like the idea that every day in every way I’m getting better and better.”

INSTRUCTIONS FOR SELF-HYPNOSIS

  1. Find a comfortable place to sit, turn off your phone, and close your eyes.
  2. Take your first deep breath and on your exhale, relax your jaw.
  3. Take your second deep breath and on your exhale, relax and drop your shoulders.
  4. On your third deep breath, while you exhale, relax the muscles in your stomach.
  5. Continue to breath gently and deeply.
  6. Slowly count backward 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…
        Using Your Imagination in self-hypnosis
  • Now imagine a wide screen TV in your mind.
  • On the screen, place an image of yourself in the future. This new future you has achieved your goals.
  • See yourself looking wonderful and feeling great.
  • Now imagine that this image of you has magically increased and is now life size.
  • Imagine yourself stepping inside your future body.
  • Imagine what it feels like to be inside your future body.
  • Feel how great you feel. Notice how happy you are because you have achieved your goals.
  • Spend a few moments in your future body feeling wonderful.
  • While in your future body, repeat the sentence ten times:

      “I like the idea that every day in every way I’m getting better and better.”

  • After you have finished saying your sentences, spend a few more moments enjoying your self-hypnosis. Then open your eyes and come back into the room.

A FEW QUICK NOTES

The first time you use self-hypnosis you will notice how good you feel afterwards. When you use self-hypnosis first thing in the morning you set yourself up for a great day. Take one minute each day for one week and notice how you feel. Then incorporate it into your life just as you brush your teeth daily.

Note: When you use self-hypnosis at night you will find that you will sleep soundly and wake up refreshed. While you are sleeping, your subconscious mind will focus on the positive thoughts that you are actively reprogramming in your mind.
