STEP 2
SELF-HYPNOSIS INDUCTION
Twice a day (once in the morning or at noon, and once in the early evening) you will hypnotize yourself, stay in hypnosis for 2-3 minutes, and then bring yourself out of hypnosis. Here's how:Sit in a comfortable chair with your back supported. Focus your attention--effortlessly--on a spot opposite you--slightly above eye level.
Take 3 deep breaths--Slowly--as you count backward: 3...2...1...Close your eyes, exhale, RELAX, and allow yourself to go into a deep, sound, hypnotic rest.
You can remain in hypnosis for approximately 2-3 minutes by counting backwards s-l-o-w-l-y from fifty (50) to one (1). You may want to use your breathing to time your counts.
NOTE: It will help if you allow yourself to visualize or imagine each number being written on a blackboard or shown on a flash card as you count backward.
To emerge from hypnosis, just count forward from one to three, open your eyes, and you awake refreshed and alert, ready to go about your business in an energetic way. Do this exercise twice a day for seven days, after which you will be ready to give yourself helpful and beneficial suggestions.
