Foreword Hypnotherapy has been used in dental practice since the 19th century. It was used then in the form of hypnoanalgesia during surgical dental intervention. The first tooth extraction with the use of hypnoanalgesia was performed by Jean Victor Dudet in 1830. Since then, hypnotherapists have made powerful strides toward changing public perception about hypnosis. Doctors continue to use hypnosis to calm their patients, and to ease pain during procedures (Bierman, 1995). They regularly tell patients how easy recovery will be. Additionally, doctors tell patients that a procedure is common and meets with a high degree of success. Because these phrases are delivered by an authority figure, they act in exactly the same way as hypnotic suggestions, and become reality for the patient. More obvious hypnotic suggestions are also sometimes given to patients by doctors trained in hypnosis, and for over a century, dentists have used hypnosis to ease discomfort during dental procedures. In addition to using hypnotic techniques themselves, doctors and dentists regularly refer patients to hypnotherapists for help with weight loss, smoking cessation, and overcoming fears about dental and surgical procedures. Before the 1950s, the medical profession scoffed at hypnotherapy, but today it is being readily embraced as a complement to long-standing medical procedures. According to the southern Medical Journal (2004), as many as 40% of Americans use some form of complementary and alternative medicine such as hypnotherapy. At no other time has the world of hypnotherapy been as wide open with exciting possibilities as it is now. Because more and more people are exploring and accepting the benefits of hypnotherapy, a much

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V greater need for qualified hypnotherapists to open practices now exists. The goal of this book is to give you, a potential or practicing hypnotherapist, a strong base for building your practice. You will be guided through a basic hypnotherapy session, and you will be given homework opportunities to use and modify your techniques so that you can help others lose weight, find love, and increase their financial success, among other issues.

The organization started in America as a network of hypnotherapists, but it is now open to practitioners worldwide.

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V

Chapter 1 What is a Script?

7 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V

Perhaps the most important part of any hypnosis experience is the script. What is a script? A script is the meat of the hypnosis experience. It is where the therapy occurs. If you do not have a script, you are not doing hypnotherapy. You may be hypnotizing your client, but you are not helping anyone. A script is the portion of the hypnosis session during which you suggest change. It delivers the main message to the subconscious mind. The pretalk, induction and deepening were all to prepare the client for the script. A script can be on anything: attracting romantic partners, improving efficiency for increased financial success, weight loss, memory improvement, smoking cessation, improved confidence, or whatever the client’s challenge may be. As part of a self-hypnotherapy session, a hypnotherapist could even write a script to enhance her creativity—to suggest to her subconscious mind that she is going to write more creative scripts. The script is where you form new associations for the client. Instead of being afraid, the client will associate a pleasant feeling with talking to members of the opposite sex, eating health foods, going down an escalator, down an elevator, into a crowd of people, up on a stage, in an airplane, near a snake. I have a prospective client who is afraid of entering parking garages. During the script, she will be given a new association for entering a parking garage, and she will no longer be afraid. Her old association, the one she has now, is scary for her. The script will plant positive suggestions 8 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V that her body will remember in the future when she actually enters a parking garage. If you are new to hypnotherapy, you might want to start with a script written by someone else. You can borrow one of my scripts, or a script from one of the countless books available on this topic (see chapter’s end for recommended resources). When using a script that someone else has written, make sure that you have read through it before the hypnosis session. The worst thing you can possibly do is go into a session without previously having read through the script. You want to be familiar with the script for several reasons. First of all, you do not want to trip through words and concepts while reading the script during the session. (Because your client’s eyes are covered, you can read a script during a session. You do not have to memorize it.) Second of all, you need to evaluate the script prior to reading it to your client. Each client is different, so you will need to find and eliminate those things in the script that are not going to apply to the particular client for whom the script is being used. You need to have a full understanding of the script so that you can tailor it to reach the best possible results. Do your due diligence. Do not allow yourself any excuses. Prepare every time. Beware of procrastinating and ending up in a situation that causes you to stumble. You can get lazy. You can get into a rut. During a live sermon, the preacher can say, “I am sorry. I made a mistake. Let me backtrack.” You cannot do that under hypnosis. Every word you say goes into the patient’s subconscious mind.

9 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V Be prepared. You are dealing with the most precious part of a human: His mind. Treat it delicately. I do not say this to scare you. I say this to prepare you. Be prepared. Consider a script for weight loss that begins like this: Now, you will imagine that you are a machine and you can put different types of batteries in your power center. You have been choosing batteries which do not last long and leave a residue. From now on, you will chose proper batteries which power you for a long time and do not leave a residue. Let’s say that you are not interested or inspired by the machine analogy used in the script. Also, your client is not interested in machines at all. Would this script be appropriate? Probably not. Would it be more powerful to use a script that related to something you and your client related to? Probably. Although the analogies are good and potentially powerful, if they do not feel natural for you, you will not be confident when reading them. And, more importantly, if they do not feel natural for the client, another script choice would be more appropriate. So go through any script you intend to use. Make sure there are no surprises. If someone hands you a script and says, “Here. Use this when you have someone who wants to lose weight,” make sure you go through the script ahead of time. Do not be afraid to alter a script. Scripts are not written in stone. Make the script into something that flows freely from your mouth. 10 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V One of the books I recommend at the end of this book, The Handbook of Hypnotic Suggestions and Metaphors by Hammond, contains many good scripts. However, they were written by hypnotherapists with advanced educational and medical degrees, and are therefore extremely technical. Take the general idea of these scripts and rewrite them. You have got to tailor things to your own unique flavor. I cannot emphasize that enough. The only rule for modifying scripts is this: Never insert anything that could cause harm. We do not harm people. We help people. Say good things. Do not say frightening or harmful things. Do not excite your client. Bore him. Everything is calm. Everything is peaceful. Everything is beautiful. Everything is positive. As long as you remember not to harm people, your script will be fine. If you do not have a script to modify, you will have to write your own script. Let’s assume that your client wants to lose weight and you do not have a script. What should you do? Do you give up? No. You do not give up. You take heart in the fact that everything you need is already within you. You just need a little guidance. So let’s take this step-by-step. First of all, ask yourself what the goal is. Here, the goal is for the client to lose weight. Before writing the script, you need to find out what a reasonable target is. Do not allow the client to expect to lose 100 pounds in six weeks. If you are not sure what is 11 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V reasonable, consult a dietician or a physician. (Remember: if your client is under the care of another healthcare professional, make sure you are agreement with the course of treatment.) Find out how much weight the person can expect to lose, and set a reasonable target within a reasonable time frame. Your due diligence should continue with a conversation with the client. Before you write the script, find out what the client is eating that is harmful. Ask the client: “What are the foods you are eating, and when are you eating them?” And then work this information into the script. For example, perhaps the client says, “I am eating Snickers bars at 11 p.m. right before I go to bed. I am eating three of them a night. I cannot figure out why on earth I am gaining weight. It is just not fair.” The script is the place to alter the negative behavior that is causing the problem. Your script will want to tell this client: that he can and will change his behavior. If the person is gaining weight, unable to talk to potential romantic partners, or scared of flying, the script is the place to insert suggestions for positive change. The script is where the healing takes place.

If she is afraid of planes, she gets on that plane. She takes that plane ride. She gets off that plane and nothing has gone wrong. Have her imagine the whole thing. She is safe the entire time. Nothing goes wrong. Be creative. Say things like, “You can see the cockpit from where you are sitting and everything looks fine. And you know that your bags are stowed and you just feel great because 12 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V everything is taken care of. It is a smooth flight. You look outside. And it is daytime and you see the sky and it is so beautiful.” If you are working on motivation, find out why the client is not motivated. Is she unmotivated because she does not think she will accomplish the desired results? If so, the script should help the client to see herself as having already accomplished the results. The client already has achieved whatever it is that is causing her to procrastinate. If the client is afraid of snakes, have him see a snake from a distance. Tell him, “Everything is fine and now if you want to you can walk closer. Only walk as close as you feel comfortable with and no closer. And each time you hear my voice, you can allow yourself to get closer but understand that no harm will come to you.” When writing a script, I am inviting you to use your creativity. I am inviting you to reach inside and pull something out of yourself something that will be helpful. I am not going to tell you a way that is written in stone because that would limit your creativity. Beyond the sky is the limit. Go beyond. Just let it flow. Keep in mind your plan, your idea, and your motive. Your motivation is to help the person. You are trying to help the client. Everything is positive. Everything is uplifting. We are not dwelling on the negative. We focus on the positive. Keep your eye on the mark and remember that you will end up at whatever point on which you have focused. Likewise, we want to keep the client’s focus on the positive change from within. The client should imagine that the change has happened. We want the client to think: “I am already flying. I am not planning on it. I am getting on that plane. I am not imagining it. I am flying. I am getting as close to that snake as I feel comfortable. I am taking the 13 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V steps to get to that escalator and I am on it and everything is fine.” As discussed earlier, a person’s body does not know the difference between imaging something and having it actually happen. This means that the client has the advantage of knowing rationally that the situation is not occurring, but physically and emotionally the client feels he has experienced the event. Therefore, when it comes time for the client to go down the escalator, his body will feel as though he has a positive and successful experience under his belt. Though they are the meat of the session, scripts should not exceed 10 minutes when read slowly aloud. The following chapters contain scripts which can be used by you in working with yourself or working with clients. I have divided them into chapters to make referencing them easier. Keep in mind that the chapter titles are only general guides and that some scripts could be used for multiple purposes. You may also feel free to modify any of my scripts to suit you particular needs.

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V Enhance Sexual Pleasure and Intimacy And as you continue to relax and drift and unwind, you realize just how powerful you are. You realize that you have control over all of the sensations in your body. I would like you now to imagine yourself walking into a room in your mind, that’s right, a room in your mind. This is the control room, a room that controls all of the sensations in your body. And on the wall is a dial and this dial goes from zero to ten. When this dial is on zero, you feel nothing in your body. When this dial is on ten, you feel all of those feeling in your body very intensely. I would like you now to start the dial at one and slowly increase and realize that the more you do this exercise, the better you will become at doing it, that’s right. And you turn the dial up slowly, that’s right. Just allowing yourself to feel those feelings of intimacy, those feelings of sexual pleasure, that’s right, turning up the dial a little more now, feeling those feelings increase because your mind is in charge of all of the sensations in your body and as you turn the dial up, you feel those sensations more and more intensely and you are comfortable with your sexuality. You are comfortable with intimacy with another, that’s right. And as you turn the dial up imagine yourself now with another in a very intimate situation, that’s right. Turning the dial up even more now, feeling the intimacy flowing through you, feeling sexual pleasure flowing through you, feeling very comfortable with these feelings. You are a sexual being and you deserve to feel pleasure and intimacy. You are comfortable with yourself and with another. You are so relaxed as you continue increasing the dial, that’s right, turning it all the way up to ten. And then you may adjust it as you choose, experimenting with the different levels. And as you practice this technique, you become more powerful at using it so that eventually all you will need to do is think of increasing your sexual pleasure and intimacy and they 16 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V will increase automatically. Anytime that you are in a situation where you want to increase your sexual pleasure or intimacy just imagine the dial. Imagine yourself turning it up and feeling more pleasure and more intimacy. And realize that eventually you will no longer need the dial because you will be able to achieve these feelings easily and effortlessly and instantly and you will be able to maintain these feelings. So relax now and realize just how powerful your mind is. Relax, you are a very powerful, wonderful person and you deserve to experience pleasure.

End Sex Addiction And as you continue to relax you realize just how powerful you are and that you have control over every aspect of your mind and body. You are a very powerful person, able to easily control any appetite you have and now as you imagine your appetite for sexual pleasure, I would like you to realize that you are in complete control of this appetite.

And you seek justification in other ways, by pursuing your goals, by pursuing your powerful, productive interests, that’s right. These things allow you to feel a strong sense of self esteem and day by day sex is less and less important to you so that it becomes a regular activity which you find enjoyable, yet at anytime you are able to do other things and enjoy them just as much. Your self worth comes from developing yourself, developing your interests, developing your creativity, expanding your horizons, pursuing your goals. And you are so relaxed and this is where you channel your energy. And if you find that you have any matters in your life that need to be dealt with, you deal with them quickly and efficiently so that you can move forward with your life with grace and power. So relax now and realize how much control you have and how wonderful you are.

Fear of Frogs And as you continue relaxing deeper, deeper, and more deeply relaxed I would like you to imagine yourself sitting in a movie theater now, that’s right. Sitting in a movie theater watching a movie. I want you to use your imagination now. I want you to imagine that you can be in more than one location at once. So as you are sitting in the movie theater watching the movie just imagine that you can also be in the movie and imagine that you are also running the movie projector. So you are actually in three locations: sitting in the movie theater, in the movie itself on the screen, and running the movie projector and you can move your point of view to any of these three locations at will. So for now imagine yourself sitting in the theater watching the movie. This movie is starring you. You are the principle lead character in the movie. Remember you are simply watching the movie. Now at any time should you feel uncomfortable, you can imagine yourself moving your point of view to the projector. You can imagine yourself seeing the movie and seeing yourself sitting in the theater from where you are standing at the projector. This means that you can turn the movie off whenever you choose to. But for now just imagine yourself sitting in the movie theater. Imagine that is your point of view from the you who is sitting in the movie theater watching the movie starring you. You are relaxed as you watch the movie and you see yourself on the screen. And you see yourself interacting with a frog, that’s right. It’s just a movie. You see yourself approaching the frog. The frog is sitting on some grass and you see yourself walking up to the frog and this is a comedy so you are feeling very light, very relaxed, very entertained. You see yourself walking up to the frog and you see yourself touching the frog and you see yourself picking up the frog and smiling at the frog. Since this is just a movie, the frog smiles back and you sit in the movie theater and you laugh and remember at any 29 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V time you can stop the movie, it’s your choice, but for now you continue to sit and watch the movie. A very funny yet interesting movie. Funny because the frogs can smile and interesting because you are the star of the movie. And now you see yourself continuing to walk onward and you see other frogs in the distance. Three frogs on the grass and you walk up to those frogs in the movie. Remember you are just watching a movie, a comedy. You see yourself bending down and picking up two of the frogs, one in each hand. And the frogs smile at you and you smile back and they even talk to you. They say hello, how are you? And in the comedy movie you say fine thank you, how are you? You continue to hold a conversation with both of the frogs. And you watch the movie from your seat and you laugh. It is very entertaining to see yourself with the frogs. You remember now just how much you enjoy being with frogs, how much you enjoy touching them and interacting with them. You relax even more now and you continue walking on in the movie until you come to a group of frogs, a group of ten frogs. See yourself in the movie now surrounded by happy frogs making their frog sounds, talking to you, smiling at you and you smile back. You are safe and protected. You see yourself in that movie with ten frogs around you. These frogs are your friends. Reach down and pick one up, in the movie of course. And each time you listen to this recording you will become more and more comfortable around frogs and more and more comfortable with switching your point of view to the you in the movie. In other words, perhaps now you would like to imagine that you are in the movie holding that frog. If you are comfortable with that, go ahead and make that switch now. Imagine that you are in the movie holding the frog and as you look out at the theater you can see your other selves, you sitting in the seat and you running the projector and you remember how safe you are as you are holding a frog. You are safe as you are holding a frog, safe and relaxed. It’s just a movie. You are so relaxed now as you continue 30 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V talking to the frog in the movie. And at any point you can imagine yourself back in the seat in the theater or in the safety of the projection booth. You can switch your point of view around at will, but perhaps now you are imagining that you are in the movie, relaxed and interacting with the frog, relaxed and interacting with the frog, and you put that frog back down on the ground and you pick up two others, that’s right. You hold them in your hands and they smile at you and they talk with you and you realize that from this point forward in your real life you will be comfortable with frogs, comfortable with being in the vicinity of any frog, comfortable with holding frogs which are appropriate to hold. You realize that certain frogs are not appropriate to hold. Using your knowledge you know which ones are appropriate to hold and if you choose to do so you allow yourself to hold those frogs which are appropriate to hold because you are comfortable around frogs. You realize that frogs are your friends. Frogs realize that you are their friend. You are relaxed with this idea as you continue to interact with the frogs in this interesting light comedy movie. See yourself sitting down now in the center of the frogs, the center of the circle of frogs. Perhaps some jump on you in a very relaxed way. You are so relaxed and at ease as a few of the frogs jump on you now. They are so soft and fun and funny and happy and you are happy and relaxed, happy and relaxed. You are always happy and relaxed when in the vicinity of frogs, happy and relaxed. And let all of this drift from your mind now. Realize that every time you listen to this recording you become a little more relaxed around frogs, allowing yourself to create more scenes in the movie after I am done talking, more happy and relaxing scenes. So relax now and if you have been listening to this recording for several nights already, perhaps now you will take this opportunity to create some very pleasant experiences with the frogs, very pleasant experiences. So relax now and allow yourself to drift even more deeply now. 31 www.SteveGJones.com

You can choose to be in any of these locations at any time. You can be sitting in the front row watching a movie where you are right now. You can be up in the projection booth running the movie or you can be in the movie itself as an actor. But right now I want you to imagine yourself sitting in the front row of the theater watching the movie. This is a very special movie. This is a movie starring you. As you watch the movie you see yourself preparing to drive on a bridge, that’s right. You are in a vehicle and you are preparing to drive across a bridge and drive successfully across the bridge. Now, if at any time during this process, during this movie experience, if at any time you feel uncomfortable you can imagine yourself up in the projection booth and you can stop the movie. You have that control. Simply by thinking it, you will immediately be up in the projection booth in charge of the movie, safe, protected and in charge of stopping or starting the movie.

Just driving and relaxing, almost halfway across the bridge now, so relaxed. This bridge is very strong, built by very capable engineers. You realize that whoever built this bridge, built it correctly. You realize that if there were a problem with this bridge no one would drive across it. Since you are driving across it and others are driving across it you can rest assured that it is a safe, structurally sound bridge. There, you are almost three quarters of the way across the bridge, safe, happy and smiling. And you now exit the bridge so relaxed and happy now. We’re coming up to another bridge which is identical to the one you just crossed. If you are comfortable with this idea, I would like you to imagine yourself in the movie itself as the actor.

Fear of Dental Procedures You are becoming very comfortable with the idea of visiting the dentist. You realize that in the past visiting the dentist caused some anxiety, but now you find day by day that anxiety diminishing. You know that a dentist is a highly trained individual. You know that a dentist always has your best interest in mind. You know that you have chosen your dentist. You know that the dental procedures you will be seeing the dentist for are in your best interest. And so, keeping all these things in mind, a visit to the dentist is a very pleasant happening for you. You’re so relaxed as you now imagine yourself going to the dentist office. As you approach the dentist office, you become more and more relaxed because you know you are going to visit a professional, a state approved professional. You know that your dentist has all the proper qualifications to do the best job possible. As you imagine yourself now entering the dentist office, the smells of the office relax you more and more, because you know that these are the smells associated with dental hygiene, with proper oral care, with getting the treatments you need, with getting the treatments you deserve. And as you check in and sit in the waiting room, you are so very relaxed. Relaxing even more now, ten times more relaxed. And as you move towards the dental examining room for your consultation or your cleaning or your procedure, you are so relaxed, ten times more relaxed than you were even in the waiting room. So very relaxed, as you sit now comfortably in the dental chair realizing that this chair has been designed for your comfort and to allow the dentist to do the best job possible. And if there is a light overhead, this light relaxes you. Like the relaxing light coming from the sun on a warm sunny day at the beach. Relaxes you ten times more, you are so very relaxed and happy and completely at ease. You realize that any pain you may feel will be minimal. You realize that the dentist and anyone associated with the dentist, 52 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V working in the office, will do their very best to make sure you have the most comfortable visit possible. And so any pain is so minimal and you realize that sometimes as part of the procedure there is some bleeding. This bleeding is so minimal. Your body is able to control the bleeding; it is just a normal part of the process and you are so relaxed. As you now lie there, relaxing, realizing that you are getting the care you need. The whole procedure goes by so easily, so quickly, you are surprised. You are surprised at how easy and effortless the visit was and now you imagine yourself getting out of the chair, a smile on your face. You realize you have done something good for yourself. A visit to the dentist is such a positive thing because you are taking care of yourself. You are putting trust in thoroughly trained healthcare professionals and this feels so good. You are so happy that you have access to proper healthcare and as you leave the dentist office, you’re so very happy, so very relaxed knowing that you did something for yourself.

Fear of Darkness You are so very relaxed as you now imagine yourself sitting in a well lit movie theater, watching a movie. And this movie is starring you. And you also imagine there is another version of you in the projection booth running the movie, that’s right, there are three versions of you. One is sitting in the theater watching the movie. One is in the movie itself. And one is in the projection booth controlling the movie. And as you sit in this well lit theater, you are watching a movie of yourself. I would like you now to imagine that you are that version of yourself in the projection booth, in the well-lit projection booth, running the movie, watching yourself in the theater. As you also watch yourself in the movie. And as you watch the movie you realize that since you are in the projection booth, you can stop the movie at anytime. And you see yourself in that movie walking into a dark room and smiling and being so relaxed. You realize that it is just a movie and you are safe in the projection booth which is well lit. You see yourself in that dark room smiling and relaxed. You now watch a different scene where you are sitting in a room and the lights are turned off and you smile because you are calm and relaxed and you feel safe. And now if you are comfortable with this, you can imagine yourself being the version of you that is sitting in the front row of the theater. And you realize there is still another version of you running the movie. You are in control of the movie and there is a version of you in the movie and you see the version of you in the movie sitting in a dark room and you are smiling. And the lights go on and you continue smiling in that movie. And the lights in that movie go off and you continue smiling in that movie. And if you are comfortable with this I would like you now to imagine yourself being the version of you in the movie, sitting in a well lit room, that’s right, relaxed. And the lights slowly dim and you continue relaxing and at anytime you can leave the movie and go 54 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V back to watching the movie from the front row or the projection booth or you can stop the movie completely, because you are in complete control.

And each time you listen to this recording, you will become more and more comfortable being the version of you in that movie and you will allow yourself to see different scenes where you are in darkness. You will allow yourself to be in different scenes where you are in darkness and relaxed and peaceful and calm and strong and very confident. Day by day you are becoming more and more comfortable with the idea of being in the dark. And you realize that darkness is your friend and you are relaxed and comfortable in the dark.

Fear of Commitment And as you continue to relax you realize just how powerful you are and you now think about all the wonderful things that make you unique, your creativity, your intelligence, your desire to share your wonderful self with another. And as you continue to relax, you realize now that you are prepared to be committed, to be committed to another, to share your life with them. And as you breathe in deeply now, breathe in self-assurance and as you exhale, let go of any fear. Breathing in deeply again, breathe in strength and confidence. And as you exhale, slowly let go of any remaining fear, just let it go. As you continue relaxing deeper and deeper and more deeply relaxed, I would like you now to imagine yourself in a committed relationship. And notice how happy you are. Happy that you have the power and control to allow yourself to commit to another, to allow yourself to share your life with another, that’s right. And realize that you trust them and they trust you because they are completely honest. You are fully prepared for this relationship, that’s right. See yourself happy and successful in this relationship and realize that it will last, it will endure because you are committed to yourself, to honor your word, to allow that relationship to endure. And you are committed to that other special person, to allow them to have you in their life. And they allow you to have them in yours and that feels so good. That is a wonderful feeling, sharing your life, sharing your love, sharing those special times with another. And this feels just right. This feels natural for you. Day by day you will find that your comfort with committing grows stronger and stronger. You become more and more comfortable with the idea of committing to another and sharing your life and your love with them. So relax now and realize just how powerful you are. Able to allow yourself to relax and commit to another.

Fear of Clowns Script You are feeling very comfortable and you are completely at ease. Now, picture yourself entering a movie theater. Take a look around. It is a very large and open room. The theater has many rows of red comfortable seats. The movie has not yet started, so it isn’t very dark yet. You look at the movie screen. It’s large and you look forward to watching the movie. You look up and toward the back of the theater and you notice a small window. This is the projection room, where they project the movie onto the screen. You sit down in the front row and get comfortable. Perhaps you are with a friend or maybe you are by yourself, it is up to you. The chair is large and you feel safe in this movie theater. Trailers to upcoming movies begin and you get absorbed in them. Now it is time for the movie to start. You are feeling completely at ease and you are excited about the movie starting. So, you sit back and enjoy. As the movie begins, you notice that you are in this movie. That’s right, you are the star of this movie. You watch yourself on the big screen and you are happy to see yourself. In the movie, you are entering a large arena and you give a ticket to someone and walk in. You are walking towards your seat and you realize that you are going to watch a performance. You watch as the show begins. In the movie you are at the circus and you watch yourself in the movie as clowns enter the arena. Now if at any point you feel uncomfortable, you are able to transport yourself into the projection room and watch from afar. Also, if you have any difficulty with watching the movie, you can shut it off at anytime. Imagine yourself in the projection room. You are a little more at ease up here because you know you have a little more control. You watch yourself from high up in the projection room. In the movie, you are ten rows back from the performers and the clowns. The clowns do not notice you, they are busy performing. You start to feel a little more comfortable in the projection room. 57 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V You are not tempted to shut down the movie, but you know you can if you need to. You watch yourself in the movie, you look so happy and you are obviously having fun. You are feeling a little more comfortable now, so you decide to go back into the theater and watch from the front row. You settle down into your comfortable seat. You understand that if you feel uncomfortable at any point in time, you can go back to the projection room and turn off the movie if you have to. You continue to watch and you find yourself enjoying the movie. In the movie, you a clown starts to slowly approach you. You feel so calm and so relaxed. The clown in the movie asks you to smell a flower and as you smell it, it squirts some water. You laugh in the movie, people around you laugh, and you laugh while you are sitting in the movie theater. You understand that you can watch this clown and feel confident that it will not harm you, because you are only watching. The clown then gives you a real flower to keep and you accept this flower from the nice clown. If at any time, you are feeling comfortable with the movie, go ahead and put yourself in the movie. Pretend that you are watching the performance. If you feel uncomfortable, that is fine too and you can stay in the theater or in the projection room. As you continue to look up at the screen, the clowns are doing an act on the arena floor and this makes you laugh and you smile. This is the point in time, maybe not now, but maybe in future listening of this recording, you decide to be in the movie. Let’s pretend that you are now in the movie and you are watching the circus from the tenth row in the arena. There are five clowns in front of you. If you feel uneasy, you can go back to the theater or the projection room, but right now you feel confident. You trust the clowns. You now realize that you can feel at ease around clowns. They are funny characters with brightly painted faces and fun clothing. You are confident and strong and you are ready to take on whatever comes your way. And each time you listen to this recording you become more comfortable around 58 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V clowns. So relax and realize that everything is going to be just fine.

Fear of Break-Ins (Burglaries) And as you continue relaxing deeper and deeper and more deeply relaxed, I would like you to imagine yourself sitting in a movie theater sitting in the front row watching a movie. This is a very special movie theater. In this movie theater you can be in three different places and I will explain that now. You can be sitting in the front row of the theater watching the movie or you can be in the movie itself because the movie is staring you. You are the central part of the movie or you can be the person running the movie projector. At anytime you choose, you can switch your point of view to any of these locations. You can be the you watching the movie in the front row or you can be the you starring in the movie as the central character or you can be the you in control of the movie. But for right now I would like you to imagine yourself sitting in the front row watching the movie and on the screen you see yourself comfortably sitting in your home. It is daytime and you are going about your normal activities. There are other people around you. You feel so calm and so safe. Look at yourself, you are smiling. You are very relaxed and you feel comfortable in your home. Now remember you are simply imagining this and you are sitting in the front row of the theater watching the movie and at any time you can become the you that is running the projector and you can stop the movie if you choose. But for right now you continue watching the movie sitting in the front row of the theater. Now you see yourself in your home during the middle of the day and you are by yourself. The truth is that you enjoy being by yourself in your home and in just a moment if you are comfortable with this idea I would like you to imagine that you are in your home so you will shift your point of view to your home. In other words you will see the world as the character in the movie so that you are in your house alone and remember at any time you can move your point of view into either the you that is watching the movie or the 60 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V you that is running the movie. But for right now perhaps you are comfortable imagining yourself in that movie, acting in that movie, alone in the house. The sun is going down and you are busying yourself in your home. You feel so safe and comfortable here. Your doors are locked and you realize that you are completely safe from harm. Perhaps you hear a unique sound. You listen for a moment and you immediately identify the sound. You are so calm and peaceful and you realize that you have nothing to worry about. Now the movie changes scenes and it is the next day. You leave your home. You make sure that is locked and secure and you feel confident that your home is safe while you are gone. You go about your normal daily activities outside of your home. Now in the scene, you are coming back to your home. You unlock the door and you feel so safe and secure entering your home. You realize that everything is exactly how you left it. You feel so calm and confident in your home. Feel how relaxed you. You realize that your home is safe. You have made sure that your home is as safe and secure as possible. You realize that the chances of someone breaking into your house is a very, very small chance. You feel so confident and so secure in your home. You are smiling as you spend time either alone or with people in your home. And relaxed at all times whether it is day or night because you feel peaceful and safe in your home. You are comfortable with yourself and with your secure home. In this movie you are walking around your house, doing the things you normally do in your home. All throughout the movie you are smiling and enjoying yourself. You feel so safe and comfortable and secure. Notice how relaxed you are. Notice how relaxed you are, that’s right. So relaxed. You look forward to spending time in your home and you also enjoy spending time away from your home because you know that at all times, your home is safe and secure. And you realize that you have let go of any fear you once had about break-ins. You have let it go. That is behind you 61 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V now, gone because you no longer live in fear. Your life is filled with positive things and you have confidence that you will not be a victim of a burglary. Notice how powerful you have become. Notice how relaxed you are at all time in your home. You know that the people and things and yourself in your home are safe. You are so relaxed and so peaceful. Now I would like you to imagine in this movie the scene is changing and you are back wherever you are right now in your real body. Wherever you are sitting down or lying down right now, you are there safe and feeling very powerful because you realize that your home is safe and so are you. Congratulations.

Fear of Birds And as you continue relaxing deeper, deeper, and more deeply relaxed I would like you to imagine yourself sitting in a movie theater now, that’s right. You are sitting in a movie theater watching a movie. I want you to use your imagination now. I want you to imagine that you can be in more than one location at once. So as you are sitting in the movie theater watching the movie just imagine that you can also be in the movie and imagine that you are also running the movie projector. So you are actually in three locations: sitting in the movie theater, in the movie itself on the screen, and running the movie projector and you can move your point of view to any of these three locations at will. So for now imagine yourself sitting in the theater watching the movie. This movie is starring you. You are the principle lead character in the movie. Remember you are simply watching the movie. Now at any time should you feel uncomfortable, you can imagine yourself moving your point of view to the projector. You can imagine yourself seeing the movie and seeing yourself sitting in the theater from where you are standing at the projector. This means that you can turn the movie off whenever you choose to. But for now just imagine yourself sitting in the movie theater. Imagine that is your point of view from the you who is sitting in the movie theater watching the movie starring you. You are relaxed as you watch the movie and you see yourself on the screen. And you see yourself interacting with a bird, that’s right. It’s just a movie. You see yourself approaching the bird. The bird is sitting on a low-lying branch and you see yourself walking up to the bird and this is a comedy so you are feeling very light, very relaxed, very entertained. You see yourself walking up to the bird and you see yourself touching the bird, it’s a very tame bird and you see yourself smiling at the bird. Since this is just a movie, the bird sings back to you and you sit in the movie theater and you laugh and remember at any 63 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V time you can stop the movie, it’s your choice, but for now you continue to sit and watch the movie. A very funny yet interesting movie. And now you see yourself continuing to walk onward and you see other birds sitting in trees. Three birds are sitting on a branch and you walk up to those birds in the movie. Remember you are just watching a movie, a comedy. You see yourself looking at the birds and admiring them. And the birds smile at you and you smile back and they even talk to you. They say hello, how are you? And in the comedy movie you say fine thank you, how are you? You continue to hold a conversation with the birds. And you watch the movie from your seat and you laugh. It is very entertaining to see yourself with the birds. You remember now just how much you enjoy being with birds, how much you enjoy touching them and interacting with them. You relax even more now and you continue walking on in the movie until you come to a group of birds, a group of ten birds. See yourself in the movie now surrounded by happy birds making their bird sounds, talking to you, smiling at you and you smile back. You are safe and protected. You see yourself in that movie with ten birds around you. These birds are your friends. Reach down and pick one up, in the movie of course. And each time you listen to this recording you will become more and more comfortable around birds and more and more comfortable with switching your point of view to the you in the movie. In other words, perhaps now you would like to imagine that you are in the movie holding that bird. If you are comfortable with that, go ahead and make that switch now. Imagine that you are in the movie holding the bird and as you look out at the theater you can see your other selves, you sitting in the seat and you running the projector and you remember how safe you are as you are holding a bird. You are safe as you are holding a bird, safe and relaxed. It’s just a movie. You are so relaxed now as you continue talking to the bird in the movie. And at any point you can imagine yourself back in the seat in the theater or 64 www.SteveGJones.com

Hypnotherapy Scripts Volume V in the safety of the projection booth. You can switch your point of view around at will, but perhaps now you are imagining that you are in the movie, relaxed and interacting with the bird, relaxed and interacting with the bird, and you put that bird back on the branch and you pick up two others, that’s right. They are perched on your finger and they smile at you and they talk with you and you realize that from this point forward in your real life you will be comfortable with birds, comfortable with being in the vicinity of any bird. You realize that birds are your friends. You are relaxed with this idea as you continue to interact with the birds in this interesting light comedy movie. See yourself standing now under a tree with many birds around. Perhaps some fly near you in a very playful way. You are so relaxed and at ease as a few of the birds sing to you now. They are so fun and funny and happy and you are happy and relaxed, happy and relaxed. You are always happy and relaxed when in the vicinity of birds, happy and relaxed. And let all of this drift from your mind now. Realize that every time you listen to this recording you become a little more relaxed around birds, allowing yourself to create more scenes in the movie after I am done talking, more happy and relaxing scenes. So relax now and if you have been listening to this recording for several nights already, perhaps now you will take this opportunity to create some very pleasant experiences with the birds, very pleasant experiences. So relax now and allow yourself to drift even more deeply now.
