all the muscles in the top of your head…

Relax your forehead…

Calming
…yourself…
down

all the way down…

Good…

And now…

Your eyes…

Your temples…

Relaxing…

Your ears can relax…

the back of your head too,

supported by that pillow/cushion…

so comfortable…

Again
relax all the
tiny
muscles

around your eyelids…

all of them

can just
let go,

relax and unwind,
now…

The muscles between your eye brows

can soften,

smooth out…

take a
rest.

And even the nose can relax,

tension
can accumulate around the nose

but
it can melt away
now too…

And who knows, (phonetic ambiguity: nose/knows.)

how the nose

knows how to relax?

But it does…

And female rabbits are known as does/
doze
… (confusion: non sequitur – ‘doze’ = command - sleep!)

And you can

effortlessly…

allow this feeling of

pure relaxation

to spread down your neck…

That’s right…

so wonderfully relaxed,

peace increasing…

inside…your mind…

because…

as
your body relaxes,

your mind relaxes…

does it not?

Time to just
slow…things…down…
(Anxiety is associated with speed. Suggest the opposite. Down also suggestive of going down into hypnosis.)

down to your shoulders…

Just let those shoulders…

relax comfortably.

Don’t have to do anything…

for a while…

The back muscles,

releasing past tension.

That old…

tension just melts away…

so pleasant…

that calming, soothing, restful sensation

spreading…

all the way down

your lower back

increasing
serenity,
(single word command)

relaxing,

smoothing out certain things…

almost as though,

someone you love deeply

is massaging

all that old tightness you had away.

Your chest and tummy muscles…

feeling so soft,

so wonderful.

That feeling can spread

to where it needs to go.

Just getting rid of any

unnecessary tension,

in the past…now.

And down to your

waste/waist area, (phonetic ambiguity)

feeling

tranquillity, now…

And what’s the most wonderful thing

about kindness and love;

for yourself too? (Whispered)

Letting those big thigh muscles

relax so pleasantly,

that chair comfortably supporting…

your hamstrings muscles too.

Your arms can relax.

The deltoids,

biceps,

triceps,

the forearms…

all the way down

to your hands,

your palms relaxing…

each finger and thumb…

so comfort-able…

Aware of the feeling

of your interlaced fingers,

the feeling of your jeans…(whatever they are wearing)

any textures…

the different feelings,

in both hands.

One hand might feel slightly lighter,

and the other slighter warmer… (truism – this is often the case.)

And I don’t know which hand is the right hand...

and which one is left. (Phonetic ambiguity/double meaning for left and right.)

Perhaps…

your calves can

relax next…

your shins,

your Achilles tendons…

down to your ankles,

top of your feet,

aware of the feeling of the shoes/socks etc. (if they are wearing any) on those feet…

your toes too…

each toe relaxing,

one…

by…

one…

And your sole/soul… (phonetic ambiguity suggestive of ‘deep rooted’ relaxation)

deeply relaxed.

Your entire mind and body

deeply relaxed, now.

Now I just want for a moment…

to speak to…

you’re unconscious
(ambiguity – your/you’re)

I’d like to thank that part…

that was and is protecting you…

looking out for you…

that was making you

too worried,

stressed,

overly tense…

back then.

But now I would like,

the sympathetic part of the nervous system;

that’s the part that takes care

of the arousal phase of the ‘fight or flight’ response

to
calm down, now…

to allow the parasympathetic phase,

of the nervous system;

that is the
calming down
phase…

to begin to predominate, now…

Only responding to
real
danger,

when needed.

The old overly tense and stressed pattern,

is unnecessary, now…

That’s right.’

Appendix 2: Conscious and Unconscious Dissociation script.

‘As a part of you listens another part becomes more and more immersed in this process…

Maybe one part wants to follow what is happening, while another in fact knows without effort and simply absorbs things…

Perhaps a part may be concentrated on some ideas yet at the same time another can continue on its journey into the inner world of experiences…

A part can doubt and question and another can accept positive change and experience is possible, can understand with more and more trust…

Maybe some part wants to observe and be alert whereas another uncovers its own creative potentials and deeply desires to try something new…

One part may try to exert too much control over everything with its learnt bias, while another deeper part of you is free to imagine some things you desire and put into practise…

A part is preoccupied by the moment as another simply finds it easy to go down stream and act on certain things that please it most…’

Appendix 3: The Silly Hypnotic Deepener.

In a few moments not just yet

I’ll say the names of three fruits

and with the sound of each word

you can go 50 times deeper into trance and hypnosis.

You ready? Ok? (Don’t wait for a response.)

Banana
…deeper…and deeper…50 times deeper…

Apple
…even deeper than that…50 times deeper into

your own state of hypnosis and trance…

And one more for luck…

Pineapple!

Deeper and deeper still,

all the way down

into…

deep, hypnotic…

SLEEP!

Appendix 4: 1st Bonus: The Symbolic Deepener.

‘Be aware of this feeling,

this relaxation you’re feeling. Now…

Imagine…

if it were to form your symbol of deep relaxation…

in your mind.

See it there…

Wherever there is?

Get to know that symbol...

Where is it?

How big is it?

Really know it.

Now, take your symbol

and let it have a colour…

if you haven’t already.

A colour that represents this amazing feeling…

Now,

When you’re ready…

just let that colourful symbol…

liquefy, dissolve into some part of you…

taking this feeling with it…

this deep, healing relaxation…

spreading

into

some part of your body…

Enjoy these wonderful feelings as they soak into,

are absorbed by that place…

Very deeply so…

Now, move it somewhere else

it would do you good…

As you do,

these good feelings

and more…

only increase in intensity…

Feel them intensify!

That’s right…

so that pleasurable feeling

only increases.

Maybe it pulsates

or throbs nicely

or maybe it moves in waves

or twirls

or circulates…

or radiates

from that place…

outward

and inward…

I don’t know…

It’s your experience…

And again…

let your colourful symbol

liquefy, dissolve into

another part of your deserving body…

Just the right place…

Move it there…

you know where is best…

As it melts,

these good feelings can increase…

double,

triple,

quadruple…

if you like,

if you’re unconscious is willing…

Now take this lovely healing feeling…

and

allow it to

feel even more pleasant

as you notice it travel

somewhere else,

wherever you need it…

taking the feelings with it

into another part of you…

bathing your

mind-body system

with wonderful feelings…

And so,

the more intense

this blissful feeling does become

the more you enjoy it…

with each breath

the feeling only gets better,

healing you

in some mysterious way…

taking you

deeper and deeper into

deep hypnotic -
SLEEP!

Let that colourful symbol

liquefy, dissolve into some other

part of your mind…

your body…

soothing,

healing,

refreshing

each and both of you, now…

Move it where it needs to go.

Let that feeling

spread into every part of

that body right now…

I’ll be quiet for 30 seconds

And in that time

And you have all the time

you need in trance…

to do this…

that’s right…

experiencing all

these wonderful feelings…

let them double,

triple in intensity,

quadruple in intensity…

until you have moved it down

along,

up,

throughout,

your increasingly peaceful mind and body…

Let that colourful symbol

liquefy

become absorbed

by all the parts of you…

that need,

deserve,

can have these wonderful feelings,

now…

That’s it…

Feel this process occurring in the pause/pores…

(Be quiet for 30 seconds.)

Appendix 5: 2nd Bonus Deepener - The Unicorn Deepener.

(Hypnosis is assumed – I usually use this on a second or third session – you can however you it whenever you wish and adapt it for all purposes even stage hypnosis. The purpose of the script is to get the ‘dreaming mind’ to function/take over – this is the part that causes hypnotic change to become real.)

‘Imagine a flying unicorn of great beauty

and only positive intention…

A guide,

a helper…

or some other benevolent dream being…

from the land of myth and legend…

from the most creative part

of who you truly, deeply are…

travel
all the way down

into the deepest and most profound levels

of deep hypnosis and deep trance

that it is possible for you to go to today.

And
you’re unconscious
knows just where that is…

On the count of
‘3-2-1 SLEEP!’

and inner journeying

profound…

hypnotic …

for you to go today –

Floating, flying, drifting into dreams…
