Inner Peace

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.

The course content has exceeded my expectations, and my wellbeing has also improved, with better sleep and feeling more grounded and assertive. This course is a life changer - both for me and for those who will benefit from the knowledge I will use to help others.

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 46 – Inner Peace

In a few moments in time… In a few moments in time… you can just take a deep breath… and have your eyes resting comfortably closed… you can focus in on your breathing… notice that as you do so… you can continue to make yourself more comfortable… just breath… and… allow your mind… your thoughts… to wander… just for a moment… wander… just for a moment… Let yourself… relax… allow the sound of my voice to help you… help you to relax… all the way through… and already your breathing has changed… and you find that your mind… helps you… to let go… of any… external disturbances… by paying attention to them and then just letting them drift… drift into the back of your mind… where they can rest for a moment… the back of your mind where they can rest… and you can and you will… begin to and continue to… allow yourself… to let go… of any unnecessary tension… any discomfort… or unease… your muscles can start to warm… and you may find that you yawn… you may find that… you just move your shoulders… let them down, let them rest… allow the muscles of your neck and jaw to warm… warm and relax… all the way through… relax… all… the way… through… taking time… taking time to simply be in the moment… taking time to let your out breath carry away any unnecessary nervous tension remaining in any part of you… and you can and you will… go deeper… deeper… deeper relaxed… deeper… deeper… deeper relaxed… nothing else matters… you have control… and… you notice that the sound of my voice begins to drift episodically… drift away from your immediate attention and it is as if you forget to listen… and there is no need any longer to listen hard to the words that I say, for simply the sound of my voice… simply the sound of my voice that carries you ever deeper… deeper… deeper still… into this space of peace… inner peace…

For in a few moments in time… in a few moments in time you will hear me count down from 10… to zero… and as I countdown from 10 to zero… you will start to find that… your mind can and will… experience a sensation of drifting and floating… drifting and floating ever deeper… ever deeper… ever deeper still… ever deeper… ever deeper… ever deeper still… and… as you drift… as you go ever deeper and deeper… into this space of inner peace… you realize that you’re floating into a space that is completely protected… completely secure… a place where your mind can go at night when you sleep, when you dream… to just help you… to recover… so ready… time to make that journey… 10 … and all the while you go deeper… deeper… deeper still… deeper… deeper… deeper still… 9… no longer any need to think of anything, do anything or be aware of anything at all… simply the sound of my voice… simply the sound of my voice carrying you into an ever deepening state of physical as well as mental state of inner peace… 7… deeper and deeper… deeper and… deeper… 6… 5… 4…deeper… deeper… deeper still… deeper deeper… deeper still…  3… 2… and… 1… and now… all the way down to 0… floating gently down like a feather in a breeze into a warm safe space… a place of inner peace… enough room for you… enough room to breathe… enough room to recover… enough room to recover and… to make space for the things that give you joy… that enhance this peace… there is no need for you to be consciously aware of what these things may be … there’s no need for you to think of anything or do anything… but unconsciously, your mind will wrap around you all the things that give you inner peace… so this becomes a completely unique and healing space for you… and you can and you will go deeper and deeper into this experience… I’m going to remain silent for a few moments… and you can absorb this inner peace… and continue to bring into this space… anything else that helps you …

[one minute silence]

And I want you to know that… whenever you wish to go back to this space… whenever you need it… all you need to do is close your eyes and take three deep breaths and just imagine that feather floating down before your eyes… and you’ll be carried there momentarily… long enough to give you access to the feelings that you need… peace… deep, deep peace…

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 open… and at the count of 10 you’ll be fully wide awake… all normal, healthy and appropriate sensations and responses back in the present… and if you need this time, this space, this inner peace in your sleep… all you have to do is when you go to bed at night, close your eyes, take the three deep breaths and imagine a feather floating down… deeper and deeper… so… time to wake… to come back to a fully conscious, alert state… and you will feel refreshed and relaxed… you will feel connected with that sensation of inner peace… you will feel better and more optimistic than you’ve felt in a while… stronger too… so ready… 1… 2… 3… more aware… 4… 5… 6… more alert… 7… 8… eyes open, wide open… 9… and 10… fully wide awake… and stretch…
