HypnoSOS Episode 15 – Peace

Close your eyes now… breathe deeply now… let your body relax now…in these moments and for a few moments… you can allow the world to drift… address allow the world around you to just move away a little… for a short while… like the tide… and like the tide… after a while it will return… but different… all you need to do right now is… allow your breath to carry you… ever more deeply relaxed… ever more comfortable too… in… these… moments… in these moments of peace… you can breathe… in these moments which are just for you… you can let go of any unnecessary nervous tension… any discomfort… any unease…just breathe… and… already your breathing has changed… it’s become deeper… and deeper… and there will be moments as if when you feel as if your mind looks for and finds space… space between the thoughts… space between each breath… moments of pause… moments when… at the top of your breath… and the bottom of your breath… there is a stillness…a silence… before the movement as you inhale… and exhale… there are moments of peace… and even as you think about it… there are moments of peace… through the day… they are there… you may not notice them, but it’s time to focus on them and appreciate them… moments of peace when… perhaps you are making a cup of tea… moments of peace when you open the window and breathe the air outside… moments peace when you sit down after a long day… moments of peace when… you go to bed and start to drift off… to sleep… and there are moments of peace that we can seek out and create… away from the phone… away from distractions… to look at the flowers in the garden… at the sky above… just moments… moments with an absence of noise… moments with the presence of self… moments when you’re not doing anything… you’re just being… and in these moments you can be at peace.

In a few moments in time… in a few moments in time… you will hear me count down from 10 to 1… and with each descending number… each descending number between 10 and 1… so you can go ever deeper… deeper relaxed… more and more at peace… more calm and more comfortable too… nothing else matters… and there is no longer any need to listen hard to the words that I say… simply the sound of my voice…, simply the sound of my voice… that can and will carry you ever deeper… deeper… deeper still… deeper… deeper… deeper still… you have control… so ready… 10… 9… 8… going deeper… deeper… still deeper… deeper… deeper still… 7… 6… 5… deeper and deeper… deeper and deeper… 4… 3… 2… 1… and nowww… take a few moments of peace… collect them together… like beautiful pebbles that have been left behind by the tide… pick them up… take them home… use them to remember the peace… allow your mind to gather these moments of peace… so you can use them when you need them later… do it now… and you can rest… rest assured in the knowledge that nothing else matters for the moment… rest assured that you can and you will… enjoy how it feels… to collect moments of peace… as the day goes by… collect them and store them for when you need them… they will be as present as your breath… relax… let go of the tension… breathe in the peace… and… now the tide has returned… and it’s time for the world around you to come back… but you are different… you’re calm… you feel a sense of peace and tranquillity… that will stay with you… and each time you listen to this… you can connect with it ever more strongly.

In a few moments in time… in a few moments in time you will hear me count from one to 10 and at the count of 8 your eyes will naturally and easily open, and by the count of 10, you will be fully wide awake all normal, healthy and appropriate sensations and responses will be back with you… and you will feel fine… you will feel better… you will feel very, very calm… at peace… so ready… 1… 2… 3… more aware… 4… 5… 6… more alert… 7… 8… open your eyes… eyes open… 9 and 10… fully wide awake… nice deep breath… and stretch.
