Pure Relaxation

HypnoSOS is a regular hypnosis podcast with 200+ episodes and over a million downloads.

Each episode is a mini-hypnosis session which starts with an introduction about how get the most benefit (which you can feel free to skip through once you have heard it once), and some details about the contents of the hypnosis session. You can then close your eyes, relax, and have a mini-break from the stress around you. You can listen to each episode as often as you need to.

 

Please – do not listen to these audios when doing anything else – especially not driving. This is very important.

In science, outstanding practitioners are many, and gifted teachers are few. It’s rare to find both in one person. Professor Ursula James is that rare exception - combining deep expertise with a talent for teaching that inspires and endures. Whichever course you choose, and at whatever level, you’ll be guided by someone uniquely equipped to help you achieve your goals.

Having tried another hypnotherapy training, I am very pleased to say how enjoyable this course is. I would liken it to reading a good book. Easy to understand, informative and enjoyable. I would highly recommend it to anyone, whether for professional purposes or just for your own self learning.

HypnoSOS Episode 11 – Pure Relaxation

Close your eyes now… three deep breaths now… and as you breathe… open up your shoulders… let the space between them widen… and just… let them relax… Notice the muscles around your eyes… let them warm and relax… allow those muscles to relax so much they won’t even bother to open… until the end of this process… and… you can notice the muscles of your jaw… the strongest muscle in the body… and the place where… a lot of the tension gets stored… allow those muscles to warm now… le thtem relax all the way through… relax… and already your breathing has changed… It has become deeper and deeper… It may even have moved… from your chest down to your abdomen… as you take ever deeper breaths… just relax… just relax…and… as you breathe out… you can let go of any… unnecessary nervous tension… breathe it out… and as you do… other muscles in your body will also start to relax… your arms… your legs… the muscles of your back… warming… relaxing… as you go ever deeper… ever deeper… ever deeper still… more relaxed… and more comfortable too…

And you may find that there are moments when your thoughts just drift… your attention just wanders… and you find… that you notice… that there are moments when you forget to listen… to the words that I say… because you’re going ever deeper… ever deeper… deeper and deeper… deeper relaxed… and you may find that there are moments when… you forget to listen to the sound of my voice… simply the sound of my voice… even though it helps you to go deeper… deeper… deeper still… deeper relaxed… deeper… and deeper… and… as you forget to listen to the sound of my voice… or even words that I say… you can just pay attention to the muscles of your body… as they go ever deeper relaxed… breathing deeply and evenly… so relaxed… you may find you can’t even be bothered to move… the muscles of your body becoming so warm and comfortable…. it’s almost as if you’re drifting off into sleep… a deep, deep peaceful sleep…deep peaceful sleep… These moments are very similar to the moments between waking and sleeping… when you know you’re not fully awake… but nor are you fully asleep… you’re somewhere between… inner space where you can just be… just rest… just let go of any unnecessary nervous tension… let it go… and as you do… you find that you feel better… calmer…more in control… you find that your mind will wander wherever it needs to go and you can follow it on other thoughts….or not…it’s entirely up to you… it’s your choice… Whatever you do… it’s your choice in these moments… and as you let your muscles grow ever deeper… the deeper still… ever deeper… deeper… deeper still… you find that you can no longer hold onto the thoughts about things… places… situations… which have bothered or disturbed you… you just let them go… as easily as you breathe out… as naturally as you exhale… you let go… in these moments… of the things that have bothered or disturbed you… let them go… and all the while you find that… your body can relax even more… so much so that there may be moments when… moments when you feel as if you’re drifting… or floating… and yet… completely supported… just at peace… allow these moments to stay with you… now…

And know that even in the silence between my words… you go ever deeper and deeper relaxed… and know that in the pauses between each breath you take… you go deeper and deeper relaxed… centring yourself from now on… unconsciously… and yet so easily… letting go of… each breath… letting go of… any unnecessary nervous tension… as naturally as you breathe… and I want you to know that… when you wake from these moments… you will feel rested… relaxed… calm… but also in control… feeling stronger… more balanced… more able to deal with anything… anybody… and any situation that you have to deal with… you feel more in control… enjoy these moments now… before I wake you.

In a few moments in time… In a few moments in time you will hear me count from 1 to 10… and at the count of 8 your eyes will naturally and easily open… and at the count of 10 you will be fully wide awake… all normal healthy and appropriate responses will be back with you… and you will feel so wonderfully relaxed… and this feeling will continue and can resume when you listen again… so… ready… 1… 2… 3… more aware… 4… five… 6… more alert… 7… 8… eyes open… wide open… 9… and 10… rest for a moment then stretch… fully wide awake.
