HYPNOTIC SCRIPTS

AIDS SESSION I

Now, as you sink deeper and deeper, completely relaxed, I'm going to talk about
tension, anxiety and fear. How unnecessary these feelings are and how you,
YOURSELF, are going to eliminate them. When we come down with a cold, the
general emotion we feel is inconvenience. Inconvenience, because you miss work,
have little or no energy to accomplish daily tasks, and in general - this cold just
throws a wrench into our life. The same holds true for anxiety, tension and fear.
These are also inconveniences. If we go to work full of tension and anxiety, our work
performance drops and it can cause tension among co-workers and make the day very
uncomfortable. Tension is the opposite of relaxation and if tense or nervous our
energy is sapped and we go through the day yawning and looking at the clock.
Emotional tension drains our minds of much needed energy to accomplish the most
trivial tasks. If fearful, we tend to slip into depression, bringing on these tensions and
anxieties once again. Tension, anxiety and fear are as much inconvenience as a cold,
if not more. Tension, anxiety and fear also bring on other inconvenience, the main
one being illness and disease. Our immune system will not work for us properly if its
bombarded with negative energy. Your body involuntarily responds almost
immediately to whatever crosses your mind. Think a pleasant thought and you smile.
Think a melancholy thought and you feel sad. Think an angry thought and you frown.
Think an embarrassing thought and you blush. Think a fearful thought and you tense.
But tension cannot exist when the mind is calm. If we replace thoughts of fear with
thoughts of calm and peace, our tension soon subsides and our minds healing power
continues working for us. In essence, we are what we think. One of the most
important medical findings is that the stress of inner conflicts suppress the body's
defense system, which then becomes unable to fight off disease. Also, keep in mind
that the body and mind are a single integrated organism. As the saying goes "You
have nothing to fear but fear itself". You have no reason to fear a life threatening
disease because YOU have the power to reject invasion in your body. The
responsibility of your health and your well-being is in YOU. YOU have the power
to remain well as long as you have your mind and the determination. We each create
our own miracles and we create our own downfalls, and as you sit here, completely
relaxed and at peace with your body, you realize this. And this realization of a
healthy body and strong, indestructible immune system, now becomes a permanent
fact in you mind. You have no reason to feel tension, anxiety or fear because you
know disease doesn't have a chance of surviving with a strong healthy immune
system. With visual imagery, which we will soon be working with, your physical
health will remain as strong and pure as ever and with your new realization that you
have no use for the inconvenience of tensions and fears, your immune system can
concentrate only on being strong and powerful against any disease. 

Now, I want you to visualize those two warriors you drew. Two vicious, strong,
mean warriors. (See HEALING TEMPLE script) One standing guard inside each
temple in your mind. These guards are now a permanent part of you. Each and every
time a negative thought such as fear, or an anxious tense thought, starts to work its
way into your mind, these warriors will savagely spear the negative thought out of
your mind. Out of your immune system process. These warriors are guarding your
immune system for you and will never, ever, let negative thoughts into your mind to
harm you or to disrupt your immune systems strength which is fighting inside of you
every second. I am going to show you how strong these guards are. Picture in your
mind the drawing of the sluggish. confused, disoriented disease which you have been
fearing. Picture it creeping towards your mind, trying to put fear and distress into
you. Now, see your personal warriors raise their spears, puffing up their chests in
victory and are ready and standing guard again. Each and every time a negative
thought tries to invade your mind, every time a negative thought about disease tries
to invade your mind, these warriors will fight and WIN ... every time! Without fail!
Now, lets get rid of that dead disease lying there, having lost that battle. From the tip
of your toes I want you to visualize a violet cleansing flame, flowing inside your
body, working its way up through your body, up your spine, through your shoulders
and neck. Feel it flowing throughout your body, cleansing and purifying until it
reaches your head, where it flows out through your head and cascades down over your
entire body, giving it a strong, protective shield of light. And, as this shield is
cascading down over your body, you sink deeper and deeper into relaxation with the
absence of tension and fear. Feel the tension and fear fading away with every breath
you take ... feel the hope and joy which replaces these negative emotions. Every
breath you take brings you closer and closer to relaxation and contentment. 

Now, as you are completely relaxed, I am going to give you some suggestions that are
going to take thorough and complete effect on your mind, body and spirit ...
permanently in your mind. 

One ... each and every time a negative thought such as tension, anxiety or fear tries to
enter your mind, your two warriors will effectively kill them off. 

Two ... these warriors, as of this moment, have become a permanent part of your
being, always with you and always killing off negative thoughts. 

Three ... each and every time a negative thought has been killed, it will be removed
from your body by the violet cleansing flame. 

Four ... the violet, cleansing flame will not only remove the dead, negative thought
but will flow from inside of your body, through the top of your head and will cascade
over your whole body leaving a powerful white shield of protection from negative
thoughts and disease. 

Five ... because you are now aware of your own power of rejecting negative thoughts,
you are becoming, with every breath you take, more and more relaxed. Your
relaxation is so complete that you now make it a permanent part of your life. 

I'm going to give you a few moments of silence to let these suggestions take full
effect upon you ... mind, body, and spirit. 

AIDS SESSION II

As you sink deeper and deeper into relaxation, you are feeling calm and at peace with
yourself. During your last visit I talked about your ability to fight off and eliminate
tensions and how this can be accomplished. As you remember, tension and anxieties
bring about a breakdown in your immune system and how this can lead to disease and
illness. Today you are going to learn, effectively and permanently how you can rid
yourself of the disease that has been allowed to invade your body. Through visual
imagery, you are going to tell your subconscious to strengthen your body's immune
system and to fight against the invading disease. The disease in your body will
become helpless against the revived immune system. Your mind power is going to
overpower and destroy your diseased cells. I want you to visualize the picture you
drew of the disease in your body. Visualize its disorientation ... visualize its weakness
... visualize its sluggish, disorganized shape ... visualize its frightened and scared
expression ... that's right ... very good. Now I want you to visualize the current
treatment you are receiving from your doctor. If you are taking medication, picture it
as an orange fluid surging throughout your system towards the diseased cells ...
plunging through your body and attacking these cells ... Good, very good. Visualize
this medication successfully killing off these cells, hundreds at a time, shrinking
them until they have lost all life and leaving your white cells safe and untouched.
Visualize these diseased cells shrinking and afraid because they know your immune
system is much stronger than they are. Visualize this medication succeeding ... that's
right, very good. 

Now I want you to visualize the picture you drew of your immune system ...
powerful, aggressive, invincible. Visualize its viciousness, its strength, ready to
attack and kill all disease. Now, visualize your immune system zeroing in on ONE,
only one, of these diseased cells ... zero in on one of those weak, small cells. See how
frightened and disoriented it is ... how difficult it is for it to run of even move
because of its soft, sluggish shape ... see how it reacts to the knowledge that it's going
to be attacked by your vicious, fierce and ferocious immune system, your white cells
that are so strong and unbeatable. Alright, now ATTACK that diseased cell ...
Visualize your immune system destroying, powerfully destroying, bursting with
energy and conquering that frightened diseased cell ... See how angry your immune
system is and how it rushes viciously up to the diseased cell, with no mercy or
gentleness, and destroys it ... tearing it to pieces. The number of white cells in your
body are limitless and the diseased cells are outnumbered. You can't lose! You have
billions in reserve. Now visualize that dead cell and feel triumphant. Look around
you ... see the other diseased cells cowering from this successful attack. 

They know that they too are going to be destroyed. Alright, now zero in on another
one ... visualize your white cells readying for another attack ... and charge forth ...
striking, tearing apart, destroying, bursting with energy ... See that diseased cell
being torn apart, destroyed, ripped to pieces ... See how easy the diseased cell is
destroyed ... how its soft, sluggish body crumpled and died at your immune system
attack. Now again, zero in on another one ... and CHARGE! ... attack that weakling
of a cell. A weak, confused disease of that sort has no use in a strong body such as
yours ... get it out of there ... destroy it ... attack ... viciously attack ... its place is not
in a strong body such as yours ... rip it apart ... show no mercy to this ridiculous mush
that's not welcome in this powerful body ... your white cells are screaming at the
diseased cell saying 'I'll show no mercy and I enjoy destroying you' You're nothing
but small, weak and confused. What's more ... there are many, many more of me than
you! 

Alright, now you are going to get into the picture. I want you to visualize yourself as
a white knight, in charge of this tremendous army of white cells. You are in charge
of your immune system ... giving orders ... leading the attack. Feel the hatred towards
these diseased cells ... feel the anger ... and begin helping your white cells hack and
rip to pieces the diseased cells, one by one. Destroy these diseased cells, one by one.
Give your white cells orders. Ready them for the attack. Tell them to "CHARGE!
ATTACK! DESTROY!" Tear the cell to pieces ... visualize your sword plunging
right through each diseased cell. Visualize this as you hack and cut and twist and
slash with your sword. Feel the hatred for these diseased cells ... feel no mercy ...
order your white cells to carry away the dead remains of these diseased cells ... flush
them out through your kidneys or bowel ... they're gone ... gone and will never
return. Keep attacking diseased cells, one by one. Say to yourself, 'I hate this diseased
cell ... I'm killing this cell, I hate it so much ... All of these cells are dead ... dead
cells, never to invade my body again. Now, as you are killing off these diseased cells,
I want you to also visualize the healing medicine and treatment you are receiving
from your doctor. Visualize the healing, orange medicine fighting right alongside
your strong, white cells ... fighting right alongside you ... the white knight ... the
strong leader and commander of your white cells. See your white cells and the
healing medicine fighting side by side. The healing medicine surging through the
diseased cells ... weakening them. These diseased cells don't have a chance now ...
your army of vicious white cells, the forceful, healing medicine and your strong
leadership doesn't give these diseased cells any chance at all ... Alright, now I want
you to order your white cells to form into groups of 50 each ... hundreds of these
groups are forming in packs of 50 each ... getting ready for a ruthless, heartless attack
... 50 to 1 ... the diseased cells don't have a chance ... alright, now give the order to
attack ... attack ... attack one cell at a time with your pack of 50 strong, vicious, white
cells ... kill, destroy, rip apart ... savagely kill those diseased cells ... that's right ...
good. A victory each and every time your white cells attack these weak, spineless,
frightened diseased cells. 

Now look around your system that was once invaded by these weak,disorganized cells
... see how healthy and glowing it is ... see the healthy, pink glow ... free of disease ...
free of any disorder. See the white cells, bursting with strength ... free to move
throughout your body without any cumbersome diseased cells ... visualize your
healthy blood pumping through your body ... surging life through every pore, every
vein, every artery ... giving you vitality and perfect health. 

Now, as you visualize your body in perfect health, glowing with vitality and
pureness, I want you to visualize yourself walking down a white stretch of beach ...
walking easily ... strolling down a beautiful, peaceful beach ... You see yourself in
perfect, harmonious health ... in a super-healthy state, completely in harmony with
nature, knowing that your body can fight off every kind of human ailment. Picture
that you are walking along this beach, fully aware that your life's goals have been
accomplished ... accomplished through your own efforts ... feel how proud you feel ...
how wonderful it is to know you have the power to make life work for you ... Feel a
very strong love for yourself ... picture yourself having accomplished everything
you've ever wanted to accomplish ... take a few seconds out now to visualize this ...
visualize accomplishment ... enjoying life! 

Now, it's time for congratulations. It's time to congratulate yourself for taking an
active role in your own recovery. Repeat, to yourself this suggestion: 'Every day in
every way I am getting better and better.' Repeat this now, to yourself, a few times ...
and as you say it, feel yourself being well, cheerful, optimistic, and full of renewed
energy. Now, I'm going to give you some suggestions that are going to take complete
and thorough effect on you mind, body, and spirit. These suggestions are also guided
rules for you to follow every day, 15 minutes each time. You are going to follow
these seven steps for your own guided imagery, for you to practice every day, and you
are to follow them exactly in sequence, as I relate them to you. 

ONE - Visualize your ailment exactly as you drew the picture of it. Do this for
thirty seconds. 

TWO - Visualize the medical treatment you are receiving and see it destroying the
cause of your illness. This session will last approximately 75 seconds. 

THREE - Visualize your body's healing powers destroying the cause of your illness.
These are your white cells. This session should last about 8 minutes. 

FOUR - Visualize the afflicted area as already healed and restored to health. This
visualization should last around 90 seconds. 

FIVE - Visualize yourself in perfect health. 75 seconds for this period. 

SIX - Picture you life goals as fulfilled and visualize a good self-image. This also 75
seconds. 

SEVEN - Congratulate yourself for taking an active part in your own recovery. Tell
yourself you are feeling great. Maintain a positive feeling. This last session is also 75
seconds. 

You are to use this program of guided imagery 3 times a day for a full 15 minutes
each time. You will find that your body will be in a better state of health than it was
before each session ... full of vitality, full of life. 

ALCOHOL

You are relaxed now, and because you are so relaxed you begin to feel free from all
tensions, anxiety and fear. You now realize that you are more confident and sure of
yourself because you have taken the enormous first step toward helping yourself. 

You begin to feel this strength from within, motivating you to overcome any and
every obstacle that may stand in the way of your happiness, social life and home life. 

You will find that from this moment on you are developing more self control. You
will now face every situation in a calm, relaxed state of mind. Your thinking is very
clear and sharp at all times. 

You begin to feel that your self respect and confidence are expanding more and more
each and every day in every way. You now realize that in the past drinking was an
escape and weakness that you are replacing with confidence, strength and self control.
You are becoming a happy person now, with a positive attitude toward life. You are
succeeding now, and you have all the abilities for success. 

ALCOHOL SESSION I

Now as you sink deeper and deeper relaxed ... deeper and deeper and deeper, all the
sounds fade away in the distance and you pay attention only to the sound of my voice.
Going deeper and deeper and deeper ... There are five steps in the elimination of any
alcoholic problem... The first step is relaxation. You must obviously be relaxed so
that the adequate communication can take place between yourself and the
hypnotherapist ... Therefore, if for any reason at this moment you are not completely
relaxed I want you now to completely relax ... let go of everything ... Let all your
arms and your legs and your entire body completely let go and relax completely ...
Now that you are relaxed ... relaxed more than you have ever been before, we come to
this second point ... The second point is realization ... You are now going to be made
to realize the cause of your drinking problem ... and understand it completely ... First
of all, in almost every case of a drinking problem ... in your mind the person with the
drinking problem, including yourself was formulated in your own mind ... the
deficient father figure or a deficient authorization figure ... maybe your own father
was an alcoholic, or at least a heavy drinker, or maybe your mother on frequent
occasions accidentally placed either you or someone else in a trance like state,
screaming at you that you are nothing but a bum, a no good bum ... And that you are
going to be a bum just like your father or a drunk like your father ... If this hasn't
happened a suggestion similar to it has been planted deep into your subconscious
mind somewhere in childhood ... It may be frequently one of multiple causes ... But
you recognize that somewhere along the line you have a deficient father figure if it
isn't your own father,then you felt that God the Father was deficient in your life, or
that your prayers weren't answered, or somehow or another you've got it connected
up that if your father was a drunk then maybe God's no good either. Whatever it is,
someone in the position of authority somewhere has let you down. And your mind
has picked this up and has become an integral part of your personality even though
you don't even say it ... even alcoholic's anonymous recognize that this deficient
father figure as being an integral part of every alcoholic personal program ... and in
their twelve-suggested steps for a cure they say that in step two that cure can result
only when an authoritarian or power greater than themselves can be inserted into
their lives ... the easiest and most frequently used and more helpful authoritarian or
father figure is that of God the Heavenly Father of us all ... and if one of the main
causes of alcoholism is a deficient father figure then obviously the formation of the
father figure should promote a cure. Since the insertion of an adequate father figure
does promote a cure, we can assume that part of the cause of alcoholism is a deficient
father figure. And the second most frequently observed cause of alcoholism which
also appears in over 95% of all cases is a great deficiency of ego. The alcoholic
always says, "I'm no good. I'm a bum." And if you argue with him when he's drunk,
and you say, you're alright, he'll say, "NO, I'm not." And somewhere in an incident
in the past, an alcoholic has almost always been physically kicked. Certainly nothing
is more damaging to the ego for and individual than physical abuse from the foot of
another individual. And further more, since emotion concentrates the mind, and since
a particular incident in which one is being physically kicked, is very likely also to be
one caught with deep emotions. It's easy to understand other suggestions of heavy ego
damage can be implanted in the mind with great force at a time such as this. And so,
we are giving you a number of suggestions of realization. First, you will realize how
you became an alcoholic, how you accepted a deficient father figure, and why the
father figure doesn't need to describe you. You're not like your father, you never
were your father and your father or your father figure is not God in Heaven, God the
Father, there's a difference, We use the same words, but there's a difference. And
even the Bible says "Call no man your father on this earth just for fear of that one
thing that they might be confused." Regarding your deficiency of ego, we're going to
build it up, from this moment on you're going to think well of yourself in every way.
You're going to be surprised and amazed at what a better person you are, not so much
because of what you do but because of what you are; your composition, the fact that
you are ... From this moment on it is important to completely re-educate you, to get
rid of the habit pattern because you finished with the relaxation and you finished
with the realization and now comes the re-education. As so from this moment on,
you have no compulsion to drink, that's been removed. You're going to be surprised
and amazed at how much better you feel. You've lost all desire to turn into a bar. The
bottle is gone for you. You're no longer interested in alcohol in any form ... And all
those suggestions take complete and thorough effect on you ... The fourth point in
hypnotherapy of the alcoholic is rehabilitation. That consists of breaking the habit
pattern and strengthening the ego. The habit pattern is only part of yesterday and
yesterday's habit pattern with regard to alcohol is gone. And your damaged ego has
been repaired. For this is a dynamic way with dealing with alcoholics. And it's a
dynamic pattern in dealing with you. For we removed your habit pattern, and alcohol
to you is distasteful, you have no desire for it in any form and should you even taste
it, it will be distasteful to you. Your faith in your own religion is built up, your faith
in God is strengthened, your ego is strengthened and these suggestions are reinforced
which is the fifth point ... over and over again at regular intervals in you life. Now
you sink deeper and deeper and deeper ... And your alcoholic problem vanishes
leaving you sound in mind, sound in spirit, sound in body and sound in health. 

ALCOHOL SESSION II

As you go deeper and deeper relaxed all of the sounds fade away in the distance and
you pay attention only to the sound of my voice. As you listen carefully to the sound
of my voice, we are going to remove a number of suggestions which have been in
your mind. We are going to remove them completely and as you listen carefully to
them we're simply going to dissolve them ... throw them out of your mind
completely and forever ... Nothing disturbs you and nothing bothers you and nothing
can distract you in any way from listening to the sound of my voice ... and from
completely accepting everything I tell you ... for everything I tell you is the absolute
truth to you ... and we're going to remove all suggestions from your mind that have
been detrimental to you in the past. The first suggestion you had in your mind is that
somehow or another that alcohol, a bottle, has been of some use to you. Drinking
alcohol is of no use to you and you know it. You're through drinking alcohol for any
reason. It doesn't make you relax, it doesn't make you sleep well, it doesn't do
anything for you. As a matter of fact it ruins your efficiency ... and consequently
you're through with it. The fact that alcohol has ever been beneficial to you in any
way is completely removed from your mind. I am going to count to five and that
suggestion is completely removed from your mind never to return. One, Two, Three,
Four, Five. The next suggestion that you may have accepted is that alcohol is a good
means of punishing yourself. In the first place, you're through punishing yourself and
in the second place you're through using alcohol as a means to do it. The only reason
anyone ever punishes himself is because somewhere deep in his mind he feels guilty
and you're through allowing yourself to feel guilty. And so with one count we're
going to remove the guilt, whatever it is and from whatever source the punishment,
the need for punishment, and that alcohol could be used as a vehicle to achieve it.
One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Those ideas are all gone. Alcohol to you is a poison and
a lousy inefficient poison at that ... just enough poison to make you sick and
ineffective. But then you're through poisoning yourself and you're through using
alcohol and so that need is also removed from your mind. One. Two. Three. Four.
Five. Now we're going to remove any and all connection that alcohol has in your
mind. The only kind of alcohol that you care about or know anything about anymore
is rubbing alcohol. And the only use it which you put rubbing alcohol is to rub it on
you. That's wonderful for that. It's a nice back rub. That's all it means to you. As a
beverage it's out. And so you remove all connections in your mind that have to do
with alcohol as a beverage or any beverage containing alcohol, so that you don't even
think of it, you don't ask for it, you don't desire it, you don't want it, you don't need
it, you don't desire it in any form. Even if offered it, you'd refuse it, because you
think of it as disgusting, foul tasting and vomit producing. And so the negative
suggestions are now removed from your mind and those suggestions which i have
given you now replace them. At the count of five. One. Two. Three. Four. Five. From
this moment on you are free, free from the alcohol, free from it's entangling octopus
like tentacles, free from it's degrading self-punishing nature, free from from its
ruination, free from it's ability to wreck your life. You're completely free because
all the connections in your mind with the alcohol beverages have been completely
removed. The wires have been pulled out and you are unable to restore them even if
you should want to. Just imagine that a big telephone switchboard exists in your head
and that we pulled out all of the wires connected to the hole marked "alcohol" so that
even if something is plugged into it nothing will happen. You don't want it. You
can't buy it. You don't drink it and if offered you'd refuse it. It's disgusting to you.
Tastes foul. Has a terrible effect and makes you sick to your stomach to even think
about it. One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Now you are going to be completely
successful in every way and surprised and amazed at the self discipline and
confidence that you have in yourself knowing that you've licked the problem and that
it will stay licked. Now sleep. Sleep deeply. And your mind concentrates on the
sound of my voice and you go deeper and deeper and deeper. Relax. 

ALCOHOL SESSION III

Now as you sink deeper and deeper relaxed all of the sounds fade away in the
distance. You pay no attention to any other sound but the sound of my voice. You
sink deeper and deeper with every breath you take. Deeper and deeper and deeper,
way down, deeper and deeper relaxed. In the past alcohol may have been to you
something that meant life. In your mind you may have accepted a suggestion that
alcohol saves your life or alcohol protects you from being injured, alcohol is good for
you in some manner or another. But that was yesterday and we are in the future. All
that was yesterday, because alcohol may have protected you from injury in the past, it
could have even saved your life. Alcohol to some people is a medicine so terribly
necessary. And those suggestions may have been good suggestions at one time, but
they have outlived their usefulness and if any of those suggestions are present to any
degree in your mind,they are completely removed as of now. And that suggestion
takes complete and thorough effect upon your mind, body and spirit. Now to other
people alcohol means death. It's a way of punishing oneself. It's a poison and some
people want to poison themselves. It's a method of slow suicide. Well, you don't need
that now. If alcohol ever meant death and suicide to you and you have a need to
punish yourself, that need is now long gone and we remove that suggestion. The truth
of the matter is that alcohol is just alcohol. It's not life. It's not death. As a matter of
fact, it's not anything to you anymore. It's nothing, neutral feelings. It's a beverage
that you don't need nor do you want. You've lost all desire for alcohol in any form.
You're interested in water. You love tea, hot or iced, and especially when it's good.
And there are many other beverages that you like and that you can drink. There's
milk and cocoa, hot chocolate, and many soft drinks, a number of which you enjoy.
But the one that doesn't do you any good and that you don't even care about anymore
is alcohol. Now that was yesterday when alcohol may have saved your life or
protected you or when it was a means of self punishment. That was when you ran
yourself down and lost your ego. That was yesterday when you thought ill of
yourself. That was yesterday when you made yourself into a failure. And today is
when you put alcohol aside forever. And when you put it aside, you put it aside with
all the other failures. You put it aside with all the other means of self punishment,
with all the fears and anxieties, and everything else. Because you don't need any of
that. Today is the day in which you make yourself successful. Today is the day in
which you set goals and strive towards those goals. Today is the day in which you
have a nice clean cut appearance, in which you feel sober and can think straight and
reason and make decisions upon good judgement and past experience. Today is the
day in which you start loving yourself and appreciating yourself for the really good
and intelligent individual that you are. Today is the day in which you turn yourself
over and turn your life over to something higher than just you, not only to a higher
principle, but to a higher power. Let that power run your life. Today is the day that
you'll bury your past mistakes and make something out of yourself. Today is the day
that you wipe failure out of your book of life and that success becomes really
meaningful to you in a very personal way. To be completely succinct about this,
today is the day that you throw alcohol away. You throw it away for good. You don't
need it and you'll never need it. You don't want it and you'll never want it. You can't
desire it and you don't. You're through with alcohol. You don't need it, you don't
want it, and you can't drink it. It tastes terrible. It acts terrible. And it makes you feel
terrible. You're going to enjoy life fully in every way and feel happy, live, laugh,
love, and be happy for that's what today means to you. Now all these suggestions take
complete and thorough effect upon you mind, body and spirit as you sink deeper and
deeper relaxed and they seal themselves into your subconscious mind and they
reinforce themselves over and over again. I'm going to give you a period of silence in
which all this takes effect and that period of silence begins now. ... 

ALCOHOL SESSION IV

To an individual who has had a drinking problem, alcohol is poison. It's poison in
two ways. First of all it's poison because it breaks down the very will power, the very
ego, the very faith in oneself that the individual is able to build up. And so it is a
psychological poison because having once conquered the alcohol problem, if you ever
allow it to get back into you again then you begin thinking about yourself all the
thoughts that you thought about yourself before, namely, well I really am no good
anyway, I really didn't lick it and so on. So it's a psychological poison. Now in
addition to that for anyone who has ever had an alcoholic problem, it's a physical
poison. It actually poisons your system. Because you're allergic to alcohol just like
other people are allergic to other things. And so if you're allergic to something, even
penicillin, it's poison to you and you must never take it. The same is true with
alcohol. If you're allergic to it, you're through with it. Now you've been allergic to
alcohol. Alcohol is a poison to you. What's even more fascinating is that usually the
reason why one is drawn to alcohol is not for most of the reasons that most people
reiterate, namely that it makes me feel good, I like the taste of it, all these things. On
the contrary, almost every person who has an alcoholic problem will tell you just the
opposite. I don't like it. It's ruining my life. It's terrible. And if that's true, then why
are they drawn to it? For precisely that reason. Because it is a poison and because
they in their subconscious mind need to commit suicide, and so they do it the slow
tortuous way. And so that's way it's so important that the underlying cause of the
problem be completely removed so that you don't need to punish yourself again with
alcohol. And that's why we have removed them. That's why you don't need to punish
yourself anymore. Because you realize you're not guilty to begin with. And if you're
not guilty you don't have to punish yourself. That's God s domain and you have no
right to take it over. He does the judging and the punishing according to His laws and
His ideas. And since you're through punishing yourself, you're through poisoning
yourself. One particular patient of mine took his first drink when he stole some
whiskey from his father. When a word association test was given him under
hypnosis, one of the most fascinating associations, which was very revealing, was
when asked why he associated glass and drink he said, "Every time I assassinate glass
and drink, I mean associate glass and drink they just seem to go together." I t was
pointed out that he had used the word assassinate instead of associate, a Freudian slip
that told what he really did with the alcohol and what he really subconsciously
intended to do, namely poison himself, he said then, "Well, I guess you're right. I
suppose I am assassinating myself with booze." And so alcohol is a poison. It's
important that you realize that it's a poison and you are leaving poisons alone.
Because you don't need poison any more. You don't need to poison yourself. You
don't need to punish yourself. You're through with all that. You're going to
appreciate yourself. That's what you're going to do, appreciate yourself for the
talents that you have, for the fact that you're God's creation, for the fact that you've
got a good life, for all the good that you can do in that life for yourself and others. In
talking about alcohol we frequently say "He certainly got stiff" but we use that same
term to describe a corpse. We say gee, he's dead drunk. Interesting how dead and
drunk go together. You're through with alcohol. You don't even smell it. You're just
beginning to appreciate yourself, to value yourself, your mind and your body and to
make them really work for you. You're going to make yourself happy and you're
going to make others happy by staying sober, by avoiding completely like the plague
any compound which you are allergic to and alcohol especially for you're most
allergic to that. You have obtained a great victory in forever placing alcohol behind
you for you have now placed a beautiful future before you. For no matter what may
befall you, good, bad, indifferent, it's still better and easier and happier to face the
future sober rather than drunk. Indeed, you're going to have twice the fun sober than
you ever had drunk because drunk you never had any fun. You were only using
alcohol to assassinate yourself, to poison yourself, to get rid of yourself, to stiffen
yourself, and to become dead drunk. And you almost succeeded in that. But you
removed all those thoughts from your mind. You're through punishing yourself.
You're through beating yourself down. You're now going to build yourself up.
You're through assassinating and you're going to appreciate and as you start
appreciating instead of assassinating you're going to build yourself up more and more
and more with every breath you take as you go deeper and deeper relaxed, deeper and
deeper and deeper. And all these suggestions are going to be reinforced in your mind
every single day of your life. Now sleep. 

ANGER/TEMPER

See yourself in a situation where you might have lost your temper in the past. This
time see yourself in control You no longer respond with anger. You respond with
understanding and are calm. You no longer fee a need to retaliate. 

You can now allow people to be themselves and allow them their own priorities. You
no longer get angry because they do not agree with you. The only value someone
else's opinion has, is the value you give it. You no longer get angry because their
opinion is different from yours. You are in control of your own emotions and
reacting with anger is negative. You are now choosing to be positive. You will never
again react with uncontrolled anger. 

Instead of becoming angry, you can now see their view. You now react with
understanding and care and are calm. You react with positive thoughts and emotions. 

(Find what triggers anger most and have client visualize a similar situation while
maintaining a calmness.) 

ANGINA PECTORIS

Survey you body for any vitamin or mineral deficiencies. Angina is a stress related
illness triggered or aggravated by a deficiency in minerals and vitamins. Tell me
what comes to your mind. 

Since angina is stress related, I want you to now release all tension, stress and
anxiety. Feel the relaxation throughout your entire body. 

Now concentrate on the area where the angina is most predominate. Relax every
muscle and fiber in that area. Now increase the circulation and blood flow to that
area and feel the pain go. Do not just block out the pain; correct the reason for the
pain. Now release the angina. Allow your body to heal itself. See a healing light at
the top of your head and feel it flow over your entire body. 

ASTHMA

Now, for years you've been stricken with a disease which you have labeled asthma.
The interesting part about asthma is that asthma really is not a disease at all; asthma
is merely the symptom. Asthma is caused by the constriction of the bronchi and this
is in turn caused by little messages that are sent from the subconscious mind from the
thalamus area of the brain down to the muscles the surround the bronchi and they tell
the muscles to constrict. The muscles constrict, the bronchi constrict and the
bronchial's constrict and the individual has difficulty breathing out. Usually, a person
with a symptom of asthma can breathe in, but when they breathe out they wheeze,
they make a noise. This noise was called, or named by Freud as a cry for help. It
represents the time in an individual's life in which they were very, very frightened,
so frightened they don't want to remember that incident at all. They cried out for
help, they thought that they were really going to die or something terrible was going
to happen and they cried out for help and nobody came. Well, they lived through the
incident all right, but in the process, they repressed into the deepest part of their
subconscious mind this incident, this incident where there was a cry for help.
Sometimes, this happens in an operation; sometimes it happens at the time of war. It
can happen almost anytime, but it's generally a time where the individual feels very,
very threatened, very, very threatened. They cry for help and none is answering the
cry. And so they keep right on crying for help by wheezing because the wheeze in
merely a symptom of the underlying problems still deeply implanted in the
subconscious mind. Therefore, still giving rise, still giving rise to nervous energy
that goes down the nerves to the muscles and keeps the bronchi and bronchial's
constricted. Now, there is still another reason for this cry for help because this cry
for help is reassuring to the patient, even though no help has come, and if nothing
else, it does remind the patient of one thing, that is, that the patient is still alive.
After all, if he can hear himself breathe, he knows he's breathing and he knows he's
alive. 

It has still a third function. That third function is this: It punishes the patient so that if
the patient feels guilty in any way about the incident that happened, it served as a
means of self-punishment. And so, therefore, we have three things that the asthmatic
wheeze does do for the patient. It summons help in a situation where help seems to be
desperately needed; it reassures the patient that he is still breathing because he can
hear himself breathe, and it punishes the patient in case the patient has guilt feelings
about the situation. Now one or more applies to you. Only the deepest part of your
subconscious knows exactly how much each of these reasons applies to you for you
have repressed into that subconscious mind this particular incident. 

But you're going to get rid of asthma completely and we're going to see it that you
do because we're going to eliminate the need for these three things. First of all, you
don't need to punish yourself anymore. Whatever you felt you may have done, caused
a divorce, killed somebody, maybe you just wished somebody would die and they did,
whatever you did, it's fantasy, but regardless of that, whenever you feel guilty, you
certainly don't need asthma any more to punish yourself because you really don't
need those feelings in the first place. It's God's domain to punish us if He thinks we
need it and He'll handle it, and when we try to take it over then what we really are
doing is interfering with God's work. 

Now, secondly, regardless of when you may have thought you did or that you were
going to die or that you were very, very sick or that something happened which
frightened you completely, you are breathing all right now, and you're going to
breathe better and better and better and you don't have to hear yourself breathe in
order to know that you re still breathing. No longer do you need to listen to that to
know that you re still breathing. You are still breathing and that's all there is to it. 

Now, thirdly, the cry for help itself, regardless of how severe that incident may have
seemed to you at the time, regardless of how severe that incident may have seemed to
you at that moment, that moment was yesterday. It's gone. You're not in danger now.
The danger is over and you don't need to cry for help anymore. And so, your reasons,
your needs to wheeze, your needs to utilize the symptom of asthma is rapidly
disappearing so that very soon you re going to dilate those bronchi and bronchial's,
you're going to relax and let them open up w-i-d-e, very w-i-d-e and breathe
deeply, all the way in and all the way out. Breathe all the way in, feel your lungs
open up and fill with air better than you ever have before as you let all the air out
easily and comfortably and all the muscles surrounding the bronchi and bronchial's
and lungs. Let go, and let yourself relax completely and with certainty. And you
breathe deeper and deeper, on and on, one breath after the next, more and more
comfortably with every moment that passes, reassuring yourself that already the
asthma is leaving you, being replaced by confidence, great breathing, more and more
normal with every day that passes. 

Now, I want you to sink into a very deep and relaxing sleep and breathe deeply for
the next few moments, allowing this feeling of being free, free from tension,
nervousness and asthma, allowing that feeling of freedom to circulate throughout
your entire mind and body, making you sound in mind, sound in body, sound in spirit
and sound in health and I'm going to give you those few moments of silence ... begin
... now ... 

BEDWETTING

Every morning when you wake up you feel great. You feel wide awake and you are
ready to go. 

If you need to wake up at night, it is now very easy to get up. You know you are
awake and you go to the bathroom and know you are in the bathroom. You urinate in
the toilet and return to bed and very easily go back to sleep. When you wake up in the
morning you remember getting up in the night. 

You no longer sleep through wetting the bed. If you start, you wake up immediately
because you no longer sleep so deep. If you start drifting too deep while sleeping, you
automatically bring yourself into a lighter state of sleep. 

It is not your fault that you wet the bed. No one is to blame. You simply sleep do
deep. Each night you sleep lighter and lighter and you no longer sleep so deep. You
feel better and better about yourself because you are now controlling the problem. 

Every night that you sleep lighter, each time you wake up and go to the bathroom,
every time you remember your dreams, you feel great because you know that you are
being successful. You feel good about yourself because you know that you are being
successful. You feel good about yourself because you know that nothing is wrong
with you physically or emotionally because you have wet the bed and now your
family understands too. 

Every dry night reinforces this program. 

BLUSHING

You are no longer subject to blushing. Anytime you feel the heat rising and the color
flushing, you now have control. You are in control: the blushing does not control you.

Immediately when you feel the blush start, you take a deep breath and it never
materializes. 

Picture yourself in a past experience when you would have blushed. Notice that you
are no longer reacting in the same manner. You no longer are a victim of the
blushing. You have control. 

BODY TEMPERATURE CONTROL

Your body is constantly in the process of cooling. The rate at which your body cools
determines how comfortable you are. Most of your body heat escapes from the top or
crown of your head. You may now control the amount of heat that escapes from your
head. 

(TOO COLD) 

Visualize a cover or pyramid over the top of your head that reflects the heat back into
your body. If you are becoming cold, allow this pyramid to capture your body heat.
Let this preserved heat go back into your body now. You may relax and remain
warm. Many people you know have been able to control their body heat for a long
time. Now you can accomplish this too. See yourself enjoying the cool weather with
comfort. 

(TOO HOT) 

Visualize the heat escaping from the top of your head very rapidly, now allowing any
excess heat to remain in your body. 

If you are getting too hot at any time, allow your body heat to escape in this manner.
Your body's cooling system now operates more effectively. You now enjoy all
weather in comfort. 

BRUXISM: GRINDING TEETH

Feeling good about yourself now, release all feelings of guilt or aggression. 

Things don't bother you like they did in the past. Things that used to upset you or
make you nervous, hurt your feelings, embarrass your, or make you angry no longer
have such a profound effect on you. You can now see them more clearly for what
they are and not allow them to upset you. 

Anytime you clench or grind your teeth you become aware on a conscious or
subconscious level of what you are doing. As the awareness occurs you automatically
relax every muscle in your body. 

Clenching or grinding your teeth is an aggressive or nervous outlet. Instead of
grinding your teeth, you now can take a deep breath and completely release the
tension. 

Now take a deep breath and notice how relaxed you become when you exhale. 

Grinding your teeth is annoying to the people around you. You choose to no longer
annoy those around you. 

BUST DEVELOPMENT

As a child your breast tissues and glands were not developed. During puberty your
breast tissues started to develop. Your breast tissues stopped developing before they
reached the size that you desire. 

Recreate the situation and circumstances just before your breasts stopped developing.
Now stimulate the hormones in your body to develop the breast tissue. 

Visualize yourself how you want your breasts to look in your clothes. 

Now increase the blood flow to your bust area, stimulating your breast tissue to
develop into the size of bust you desire, appearing the way you want to look in your
clothes. 

Now visualize the pectoral muscles and the muscles around your breast area
developing to hold your bust firmly to prevent sagging. 

CHILDBIRTH: DISASSOCIATION

See yourself completely relaxed, breathing easily. You are about to give birth to your
child. 

You feel no pain what-so-ever because the pain in childbirth comes from fear,
tension and anxiety. You do not now nor will you ever experience any fear, tension or
anxiety about childbirth, therefore you will not experience any pain during, before or
after the birth of your child. 

As the baby enters the birth canal you enter a beautiful state of consciousness
completely disassociated with the pain of childbirth. In the beautiful "I am" stage you
remove your consciousness from the body and look back on your body as it gives
birth, thoroughly enjoying the experience. If you prefer, you can enter the "I am"
stage and go anywhere and anytime you would like to be. 

You leave enough awareness within you body so it responds to the demands and
commands of the doctor during the labor and birthing. 

As soon as the baby is born you then re-associate with the body and enjoy your child
not having experienced any pain or discomfort. 

You can enjoy every moment of the birth seeing the beauty and perfection of the
birth experience and of your child. You experience total and complete love untainted
by fear or pain. You have only positive thoughts and emotions concerning you child.
If you choose to re-associate with the body during the birth process, you will feel no
pain, just joy. 

CHILDBIRTH: TIME DISTORTION

See yourself completely relaxed. You are at the hospital (home, etc.) ready to have
your baby. Your contractions are strong and beautiful. 

Tension and fear breed pain and you no longer feel any tension, anxiety or fear
therefore you do not experience any pain with childbirth. 

Childbirth is natural and easy. Any special and unique experiences that you may have
during the birth of your child will not distress you in any way. (See PROTECTIVE
SHIELD Script) Your shield of protection is there taking care of both you and your
child. 

With each contraction you have, you can and do respond exactly the way the doctor
wants you to respond but you will experience no pain what-so-ever. As the muscles
contract during labor, it seems as though the time lapse is but a micro second. As the
muscles relax the time lapse seems as though it is several minutes, giving you time to
rest and restore you energy. You have plenty of time to maintain composure and
enjoy the event of your own child's birth. 

Every moment is cherished and enjoyed. You have no need to worry about pain or
problems because you have a choice and the choice you have made is to enjoy and
experience without any negative influence. 

You enjoy every moment of the birth without negative experience at all; no pain, no
worry, and because of that your child is extremely healthy. 

It is very easy for you to relax and enjoy every step of the birth because you have no
fear of pain, you experience no pain or fear with childbirth. 

If you feel a doubt or anxiety creeping up you simply take a deep breath and it will
just go away. 

Your shield of protection neutralizes all negativity and you maintain complete
control. 

You feel great with every contraction because you know that with each contraction
your baby is closer and closer to being born. 

CIRCULATION

You can very easily control you heart beat and the rate with which you blood flows
through your veins. 

Visualize your blood flowing unrestricted to all parts of your body. 

Visualize the healing light starting at the top of your head. It is now moving down
through your entire body clearing all veins and arteries of any restrictions or
constrictions. 

As the healing light moves down, it is setting up rapid and instantaneous healing
throughout your entire body. Allow the healing light to settle on any area that needs
additional help and leave it there until complete healing has been accomplished. 

See your hands and feet ware and full of color. 

Now feeling refreshed and full of energy because your blood is flowing easily and
unrestricted. 

With your improved circulation, your body is now returning to its natural state of
perfect health. 

CONCENTRATION

You are feeling absolutely great about yourself. You opinion is as good as anyone
else's. Love is what you are, not what you do or what you have. You have total
confidence in yourself. NOW! 

You have something value to contribute. You are totally positive; negativity is a part
of your past. It is easy for you to sustain positive thoughts and emotions. When you
sleep, you have a lot of R.E.M. and good dreams. Each morning you wake up in a
normal range of consciousness feeling great. 

You do not force a direction in your life; you allow it to flow. 

You now find it very easy to concentrate. You have total recall at will. Anytime you
find it beginning to become difficult to concentrate, you take a deep breath and relax.
You are no longer bored with the things around you thus making it easier to
concentrate. 

You now structure your time so your energies are not scattered. Things do no have to
be difficult to be worthwhile. You no longer have to force the things in your life. It is
no longer a battle to remember things; it is an easy natural flow. 

CONSTIPATION

Go deeper and deeper to sleep. Deeper and deeper to sleep. You know that your
whole gastro-intestinal system is simply a muscular tube which is coiled round and
round inside your body. Various parts of this tube have various purposes, just like the
specialized departments in a factory. The mouth is the receiving department where
goods are accepted and unpacked. The throat and esophagus are the conveyer system.
The stomach is a processing room in which the materials are prepared for use, and so
on throughout the whole system. And finally we have the useful products which go
into the body itself, and the waste products which we must eliminate. 

This whole factory has a continuous conveyer system. The tubes which make up this
conveyer system are composed of rings of muscles. These muscles in their
contractions and relaxation push the material along through the factory just like the
assembly line chain in an automobile factory. When we start the relaxation at the
throat, that is automatically followed by the natural rhythmic alternate relaxation and
contraction of the muscle. These contractions occur in waves always traveling from
the receiving room down toward the waste disposal departments. 

The wave of relaxation which we started a few minutes ago in the mouth and throat,
is now moving down through the stomach towards the duodenum. Following the
wave of relaxation comes the peristaltic waves - alternate relaxation and contraction
of the muscles down through the stomach, the duodenum and into the intestine. Your
whole intestinal tract is becoming relaxed and soon these waves will reach through
the colon to the rectum. The colon is a kind of storage bin, just like a waste basket.
We don't run to empty a waste basket every time we get something in it. We do
empty it when it gets full. That is the way your body functions too. These peristaltic
waves carry the waste material through the colon and into the rectum where it is
stored. As soon as it becomes full, an automatic signal is sent out, and you realize you
are about to have a bowel movement. As soon as you have that feeling, you go to the
toilet. When you sit down on the toilet, the contact of your body with the toilet seat
automatically sends a signal to the round muscle which keeps the valve closed the rest
of the time. This round muscle we call the sphincter. The waste valve we call the
anus. 

When you sit down on the toilet, the sphincter muscle relaxes. It becomes soft and
flexible and stretches easily. And these waves of muscular contraction in the colon
and rectum force the material out. These waves are working on down through your
intestines now. And soon after you leave here you will feel the urge to have a bowel
movement. When you feel this urge, go to the toilet, sit down and wait. Make no
effort. Your body will take care of that part automatically and without effort. Make
absolutely no effort. Your body can dispose of its waste material perfectly, if you do
not interfere. Make no effort at all. Simply sit on the toilet and wait. The act of
sitting on the toilet will be a signal to your unconscious mind. The sphincter muscle
will relax. The rectum will empty itself easily and automatically. 

Every time you eat, your jaws automatically tense and relax. Eating is an automatic
signal which starts the entire process in motion. You eat. Your throat swallows the
food, alternately relaxing and contracting. The wavelike action proceeds all through
your stomach, duodenum and intestines. Soon after eating, you feel the urge to go to
the toilet. When you feel the urge, you go. The act of sitting on the toilet is
automatically a signal to the sphincter muscle. It relaxes. The whole muscle relaxes.
There is no effort on your part. The whole process is automatic. When you eat, the
relaxation starts. Soon after eating, you experience the urge to go to the toilet. You
go to the toilet. You go to the toilet immediately when you feel the urge. When you
sit on the toilet, that is automatically a signal for the anus to relax and become soft
and flexible. Then the colon automatically empties itself. There is nothing for you to
do consciously but go to the toilet when you feel the urge. All the rest happens
automatically and naturally. 

Shortly after you awaken, you are going to have the urge to go to the toilet. When
you have that urge, go. And you will have an easy, natural bowel movement. Every
time you eat, it is automatically the start of the process that will bring about an easy,
natural bowel movement. When you have the urge to go to the toilet, go
immediately. Your body will take care of the rest. You are going to have a bowel
movement shortly after you awaken, and you will have another one after your next
meal. 

CREATING

I am in the process of creating a new individual. No matter what my age, no matter
what my talents I can create the exact person I want to become. 

If I want to become more successful, I will mentally create a more successful person.
If I want to become more calm, more relaxed, I will mentally create a relaxed person.
I will write down all the characteristics I want to develop such as self confidence,
good self image, ambition, active body, good health, loving attitude, thinness,
happiness, friendliness, etc. I'll list them all. I will write them down as continuous
reminders that I can become the person I choose to become because within me are all
the traits that make it possible to know and believe that I will become what I think
about. 

Once I decide what I want to be I will become that individual. I now realize that what
I think about is what my subconscious accepts, and I will recognize those traits within
my own inner being. My subconscious accepts everything I put into it. I tell my
subconscious exactly what I want and it will do exactly as I suggest. I realize that I
am continuously developing, growing and becoming and that every thought and every
suggestion given to my subconscious is acted upon. 

I recognize I am a creature of habit and the more often I tell my subconscious of the
habits I want to develop, those are the habits I possess. It has been proven that if you
begin telling a child how smart they are, how intelligent, they will accept that belief
and express intelligence. If I tell that same child how dumb they are they will express
that belief also. They will become what I expect them to become. I am the same way.
I become what I expect to become so it is very important that I feed myself good
positive expectations and desires so that I may have in my life exactly what I desire. 

I will eliminate all self defeating thoughts. I will never tell myself that there is
something I cannot do. I must be valid, but never tell myself I am not good enough, I
am not smart enough, nor talented enough or that there is some goal I cannot
accomplish. 

If I believe it is realistic I can accomplish it. I will remember to write my desires
down and then refer to them often so can allow my subconscious to learn exactly
what I want, for if I want it my subconscious will accept it if I think on it and feel
about it long enough, often enough. 

I will wear a rubberband around my wrist every day for 30 days until I can develop a
new habit. If I am eating incorrectly or thinking in a negative way I will give the
rubberband a sharp snap to remind myself that I am driving out the old habit. I am
everyday in every way becoming more and more positive. 

I am creating a whole new positive individual. An individual who loves life, who
feels good, who is mentally and emotionally on an up beat. I refused to be negative,
discouraged or depressed. With every snap of that rubberband I am driving out the
old traits and habits. With every snap I am reminded that I am creating a whole new
person who has all the traits I want them to have. 

Few people in life realize that the creation process never stops. I will not be the same
tomorrow as I am today. I will not be the same today as I was yesterday. Nowhere is
it written that I cannot change. I can change anything about my make-up any time I
choose to. I will make it a point to read the book by James Allen. "As A Man
Thinketh". 

Man holds the key to every situation for within himself is the creative power to make
himself what he wills. I am as a stalk of corn growing in a garden and I keep the
weeds out. Positive thoughts equal positive results. The crop I choose to plant is
positive thoughts. I how reap the harvest. 

I am the exact reproduction, thus far, of all the thoughts I have had all my life. I can
change my whole being anytime I decide to dictate the exact type of being I wish to
create for all time and eternity. Once I have decided what I want, I find a way of
receiving it. I am to becoming the most outstanding person I have ever met. I
mentally see and feel excited about creating that being and then the physical being
will come forth. 

CREATIVE ABILITIES

You are now becoming all that you are capable of being. You are here on this
physical earth in physical form as a result of your desire to learn, grow and evolve.
You have a mission in life. Let your subconscious new tap into your superconscious
and universal levels of mind to physically manifest your latent abilities and
potentials so that you may fulfill your destiny on this earth plane. 

Your creative abilities are now being activated. Your latent creative abilities are
beginning to emerge and intensify with each passing day. You now draw upon all
subconscious knowledge from your past to intensify you creative abilities. New
fields of creative activity are now open to you. You draw from the universe
unlimited creative inspiration and energy. You now activate the creative abilities
given to you by the Divine Mind. You now utilize the unlimited powers of you
superconscious mind. The wisdom of the universe is within and you now draw upon
this unlimited divine inspiration. You have the ability to tap knowledge that you have
never tapped before. You solve situations in a creative manner. You feel creative and
you are creative. 

DEPRESSION I

You are a totally positive being. (See PROTECTIVE SHIELD Script) You have a
shield of protection, others do not bother you. Any negativity bounces off of you.
Love is what you are. You are peace and tranquility. Complete compatibility with
divine love. 

As easily as the negativity bounces off, so easily too you are like a sponge for
positive thoughts and emotions. You are in total control of your thoughts and
emotions. You easily maintain positive thoughts. 

As you become aware of any negativity, you may take 3 deep breaths and renew your
positive shield. Everyone has negative thoughts, but from this time forward, you will
let any negativity flow from you and dissipate into the air. 

Anytime nervous tensions comes into your day, you will release it with 3 deep
breaths and replace it with positiveness. You are no longer concerned about how
others receive you. It is their responsibility to decide what they think of you, not
yours. Love is what you are, not what you do or say. 

Your shield protects you. You are completely compatible with the divine love. You
now approach everyone with love and a smile unconcerned with their reactions. 

DEPRESSION II

Think of the most peaceful scene you can remember. Let your mind's eye rove over
the scene as you recall the things that made it peaceful or beautiful or memorable.
Let your mind become permeated with the colorful serenity of the scene. Think about
each thought I share with you and let it sink into your consciousness on all levels. 

I am made in the image of God. Therefore, the peace that is God's nature must
likewise be at the heart and center of my being. 

Nothing was ever intended to interfere with this peace. Whatever is at the bottom of
my distress has no place in the Infinite plan. 

I let myself sink into the arms of the Eternal like a tired child in its mother's arms.
Peace steals over me and the quiet of the Eternal wraps itself around me. 

Be still soul and know that I AM God. Father, I become still in Thy presence. I feel
now the Infinite stillness. Even though the storm rages without, I feel thy peace
within. I AM quiet, relaxed, passive in Thy unruffled peace. 

I am adequate to anything that can happen. Nothing is too much for me because
nothing is too much for God, whose thoughts now dwell in my mind. 

I and the Father are one: therefore I surrender my imperfect thinking. I am going to
let this Mind that was in Jesus Christ be in me, thinking Its thoughts through Me.
These thoughts are thoughts of fulfilled desire since all of Gods desires are always
being fulfilled. The Lord is my Shepherd: I shall not want for any good thing. He
restoreth my soul, my thinking; I will fear no evil and I will choose to dwell in this
house of the Lord forever. Think on what you have, not on what you have lost for
blessings counted multiply and every lost thing can be restored or compensated for. 

DEPRESSION: THATWASYESTERDAY

As you continue to drift and float, all other sounds fade away into the distance. You
pay attention only to the sound of my voice. I want three points about depression to
become firmly established in your mind. For that is what we are going to discuss, and
each point about depression is the absolute truth to you. Now the first point is, that
you have a right to be here. You are as good as anyone. You are a child of the
universe, no less than the trees or the stars. You have a right to be here, and whether
or not it is clear to you, the universe is unfolding the way it should be. Therefore, you
can accept that there is a universal plan, greater than any man, greater than any one of
us, and so, you can be at peace with yourself. You can be at peace with yourself if you
want to be ... and that comes to the second point. 

For in that plan that affects everyone in this universe, outside of natural disasters, all
depression is subconsciously self-inflicted. That is the second point. All depression is
subconsciously self-inflicted. Now, each emotion of the mind is reflected in the
electro-chemical balance of the brain. Prolonged feelings of depression can cause
chemical imbalance that, most times, corrects itself. With my clinical experience, I
can usually tell who will respond successfully if I place them on medication right
away, and who can respond successfully without it. In either case, you WILL be
successful in conquering depression. When you do feel well again, you may do so for
only a matter of minutes or hours, and then depression may return, and it may be
another several days or even weeks before you again feel well. There may be a half
dozen of such ups and downs before the symptoms are gone for good. 

Now the third point has to do with time and the absolute necessity to live, not just in
the present, but the moment of here and now. The third absolute truth has to do with
the necessity to live each moment of the here and now. For example, yesterday you
were depressed but today is a new day. Every day is a fresh beginning. Every day is a
fresh beginning, and every morning is a world made new. Today is our most
important day. Yesterday is gone. We cannot live in the past, else we cannot go
forward, because living in the past dulls the keen edge of our imagination. The past,
even yesterday, can be of value only as we glean lessons and profits from our
experiences. For as Longfellow wrote, "Nor deem the irrevocable past as wholly
wasted, as wholly vain, if rising on its wrecks, at last, to something nobler we attain."
Have you ever felt circumstances crowding in upon you because of failure and
disappointment and depression and said, "If I can only get a break, an opportunity to
start all over again?" Well, then, remember what Walter Mallone wrote about
opportunity - "They do me wrong who say I come no more, when once I knock and
fail to find you in, for every day, I stand outside your door and bid you wake and rise,
to fight again. Though deep in mire, ring not your hands and weep. I lend my aid to
those who say, 'I can'. No shame-faced outcast ever sank so deep, but yet, might rise
again and be a man." Yesterday, the sun sank behind the horizon at the close of the
day. The sky was overcast, no stars appeared within the firmament, and you were
downcast, depressed, because the day had brought only frustration. Today, you
awaken with the sunlight pouring in through the window, a new day is at hand, a new
opportunity to build upon the lessons learned from yesterday's failures. Now, each of
us is here to accomplish something, some particular phase of the universal plan that is
greater than man, greater than each and every one of us. This universal plan or life
force goes on whether we like it or not. When we face life as a whole, and try to
realize that every experience is leading us towards fulfillment of that plan, when we
take each day and endeavor to make the most of it, then, things come out alright.
Someone has said we must listen for life to happen, listen expectantly. Now, you
have not been listening expectantly. You really have not been listening at all. You
have been concentrating on your problems and as long as you concentrate on a
problem, then you have a problem, because you are what you concentrate your mind
upon. 

You are what you are greatly concerned with. Now, when you let go of that concern,
when you let go of that problem, by changing your thinking, when you say, "To heck
with the problem!" then you begin to see the solution to your problem, because your
mind is free, and therefore, when your mind is free, you can utilize it to be effective
to make it work. You must say from now on, "I let go of my depression. I develop
and maintain a happy disposition each day. Each day I reject the negative and see the
positive in all things." Because the only reason that you have been staying depressed
is that you have not learned yet how to deal with your negative thoughts, to allow in
the positive thoughts of truth and love and hope. Every day is a challenge, a new
opportunity to prove yourself in reality, to be a believer in truth, and love and hope,
that you do not need to feel helpless and hopeless, that you can separate off and
distinguish the vast difference between those events in your life and your reaction to
them, for they are vastly different. They are not the same at all and you must separate
off from those events in your life and your reaction to them. The problem is not
whether you need a new job, whether your wife or your husband has gone or left, or
that someone else did right or wrong, or that you did right or wrong, or the terrible
things that occurred in your life. It is not any of those things at all. It is your reaction
to them. It is the sentences you say in your head, such as, "Oh, my husband is gone! I
cannot live without him!" Or, "I've got a terrible pain in my back! I'll never live a
normal life again!" 

That is really the problem for when you give yourself those negative thoughts, then
you are bound to feel depressed so you have to learn how to turn those sentences
around, turn them around completely: "OK, so I made a mistake, but I won't again"
Or, "OK, so my wife died and I miss her but I can start over with a new life."
Whatever it is that you say to yourself about those past things makes you depressed
because you have not learned to turn them around and when you are depressed, when
you are in this frame of mind, you are dead! That is death! Remember Lot's wife was
told, "Don't look back for you will turn into a pillar of salt!" But, she just had to look
back. Now, you must not look back. You are through looking back. You can only live
the very moment you are living, and you can live that to the fullest, and enjoy it by
the proper thinking. Hasn't there ever been a desire, an urge, to accomplish
something you never attained? Think about that. Take each day as it comes, and enjoy
the sunshine, the song of the birds, the laughter of the children. See all those positive
things. 

Let each day crowd out yesterday's sorrows completely. Remember that "he that
climbs the ladder must begin at the first rung" - Robert Scott said that. The Chinese
say, "A thousand miles journey begins with one step." As we seek higher and wider
vision, each new day becomes the next rung upwards, a new opportunity to rise above
yesterday's sorrows, frustrations, depressions and failures, to a world made new, so
that the Oriental poet urges us: "Look well, therefore, to this day." Look well, to this
day. 

Now, in your mind's eye, I want you to visualize a sign, a sign, hanging right in front
of you, and that sign has three words on it, and the words are: THAT WAS
YESTERDAY. That was yesterday, when things didn't go right. That was yesterday,
when you failed to turn your negative thoughts around. That was yesterday when you
gave up hope. That was yesterday, when you didn't decide to start over, like you
should have, and that was yesterday, when you were only thinking of yourself,
instead of the happiness of others, and what you could do for them. That was
yesterday, when you made a mistake. That was yesterday, when you know you said
the wrong thing. That was yesterday, when you know you did the wrong thing. That
was yesterday. That was yesterday, when you hated yourself, but every day is a fresh
beginning, and every morning is a world made new, and the past is not wholly
wasted. It is not in vain, rising on its wrecks at last, there is something nobler you
will attain. By replacing negative thoughts with positive thoughts, every new
moment is a new opportunity, and as you accept this truth, you feel the warmth of
truth and love and hope course through your heart, you relax completely, confident
that there IS a plan for you, and that, even though you can't understand, you must go
through these learning experiences that you are going through, in order to satisfy that
plan. You are, nevertheless, perfectly willing to go through whatever experiences you
need to go through, so that you can allow yourself to be the master of your own fate,
to be in control of your own feelings, for this dawn of a new day only comes after the
night. You cannot have a mountain without valleys, otherwise, everything is all a
plateau. 

The brightness of the sun would mean nothing, except by comparison to the darkness
of the night. It's only by contrast that we can understand life, and so, instead of
reacting adversely to the problems and frustrations of yesterday, you hang on them
that sign. That sign that says, THAT WAS YESTERDAY - you see the sign in your
mind's eye. You lift those problems from your shoulders and hang them upon that
sign and leave them there, because, as a result of the faithful practice of your
self-hypnosis, and the learning to control your thinking in a positive way, every day,
as a fresh beginning, and every morning is the world made new, and this is a new day
for you, and a new morning - a day without depression, a day without frustration, a
day without failure, a day in which you are more effective in every single area of
your life, than you have ever been before, and why? Because you have let go of your
problems. You have stopped letting them handle you. You are handling it, by turning
those negative thoughts around, because it is not the events of your life that are
affecting you. It is your reaction to them, and you are through letting negative
thoughts create negative reactions to the experiences of your life, which depress you
and run you ragged, run your every moment, every moment of your life. You are
going to learn to relax comfortably, in the knowledge that you can and will do your
part and will continue to do your part. 

DISEASE

I let my thoughts move out to the vastness of space, as though there were no such
thing as illness or disease. With that I have nothing to do. I consider the heavens, the
ceaseless movement of those tremendously heavy bodies which are being drawn
through space with sublime ease. I think of the resistless flow of spiritual currents
that are at this moment guiding, directing, controlling all of the mighty substance of
the universe. I lose myself in a sense of the vastness of that force. 

No longer do I let my thoughts hover around a disease or illness as a physical thing. I
think of each organ as an idea of the Infinite, conceived before I was conceived. It is
one separate and distinct idea of God. All of God's ideas are perfect. I refuse to think
of it as having blot, blemish, or inaction. I see it as the willing servant of me the
thinker, and this, my thought, is now being taken up by the Universal Thinker and
brought forth into actuality. Not being an organ but an idea, it is a perfect idea now. I
do not care what laboratories show, I now take God's view and see all of his ideas as
being perfect. And it IS SO. 

Whatever is blocking my complete recovery must be some hidden strand of thought
that holds some mental reservation. I am not aware of its nature, where it started, or
what keeps it active. But it must be mine, whether I can trace my way to it or not. 

I do not want it to keep operating, therefore I now declare that it is a vestige of my
former destructive thought. I emphatically state that it is completely out of line with
the Infinite Thinker's thoughts which are trying to manifest perfectly through me. It
is a squatter living on territory where it has no rights of any sort. I call in the law to
evict, dissolve, and negate it RIGHT NOW. 

I wash my hands of it. I do not have to fight it, worry about it, or pay any attention to
it. It is nothing trying to be something. It is no more real than the bogey man that
scared me as a youth. I turned every last thread of my thought to the contemplation of
that steady movement of the thought of God in me and through every single cell of
my body. 

I think of Its beauty, Its unutterable harmonies, Its total unawareness of any resisting
force, Its breathing of "It is good" as It contemplates the universe It has brought into
being. Quietly now I let myself drift into the innermost parts of the Infinite Mind,
catch something of it unshakable peace, knowing that this Mind flows through me as
my mind. IT IS SO. 

DRUG ADDICTION SESSION I

Now as you go deeper and deeper relaxed, deeper and deeper on down, in your mind's
eye, I want you to imagine the symptoms of withdrawal. I want you to feel the
nausea. Feel your stomach turning. Feel all your muscles tighten. Like you're tied up
in knots and you feel terrible all over and I want you to take those feelings, take those
feelings and you're going to associate them with the drug itself. You associate those
feelings which represent the withdrawal symptoms with the drug itself, with the
heroin or whatever you retaking. From now on instead of the withdrawing causing
the symptoms, the drug itself will bring the symptoms about. For you're conditioned
just as much as if I'd said a nice thick juicy steak smothered in mushrooms or if I
asked you to concentrate on a lemon, you'd feel the saliva, the organs would respond,
and now I say that the organs respond to the drug heroin or whatever you're taking.
The organs respond by producing very uncomfortable symptoms so from now on
whenever you take a fix these very uncomfortable symptoms begin to show
themselves. As they show themselves, you feel them, you feel them deeply, very
deeply. They are very uncomfortable. On the count of three as you withdraw from
the heroin, the symptoms, instead of getting worse, get better. You feel better. More
alert. More awake, more vital, more full of life. More full of pep and energy than
you have had for a very long time. You feel as though you are full of vitamins. It's
going to be very easy for you to withdraw because the withdrawing makes you feel
good, and the taking of the drug makes you feel bad. You're going to be surprised
about the reverse effect, but it's becoming a permanent part of your subconscious
mind, never to be removed. Your need for heroin is gone. But you have a tremendous
need to withdraw for if you don't then you feel the symptoms. Now starting right at
this moment, you're going to begin a new phase of withdrawal. A withdrawal
without pain, without nausea, without vomiting, and without troubles. Now I want
you to feel good all the time, and the drug is the thing that makes you feel bad. The
thing that gives you the nausea and the problems is the thing that ties up your guts,
that's heroin. Now as you go deeper and deeper relaxed, and as all of the sounds fade
away in the distance, all of these suggestions take complete and thorough effect upon
your mind, body, and spirit. And you sink deeper and deeper and deeper. Nothing
disturbs you. For you've begun your withdrawal right now. Now, sleep deeply and let
these suggestions seal themselves in the deepest part of the subconscious mind. Way
down. 

DRUG ADDICTION SESSION II

As you go deeper and deeper relaxed, deeper and deeper with every breath you take. 

I'm now going to talk to you about the convalescent stage in treating the problem of
drug addiction. Now, as you go deeper and deeper and I give you these suggestions,
they take complete and thorough effect upon you. (Just as your suggestions took
effect upon you in the treatment of your drug addiction problem.) Your drug problem
is over, that's been straightened out completely and furthermore you know it. You're
cured and you're completely cured. You have no desire for drugs in any way, you
don't need them, you don't want them and they're no longer a part of your life. Most
of all, you're proud. Proud because you're on top. You're really on top now. You
don't have anything you have to prove, you've proved it. You proved yourself an
adult, you've proved yourself mature. You've proved that you can function in society.
You've proved that you can earn a living. You've proved that you can study, that you
can think, that you can read, that you can be a human being in every way, not just any
human being, but one that is effective. But even more than that, you've proved your
ability to conquer the most difficult problem on earth. A drug problem which is
something that if other people, who were not aware of that problem, were faced with
it, they might not be able to surmount this problem at all. Yet, you have done it. You
have proved yourself even more than most people. Now, it's important, now that you
have proved yourself, now that you have obtained a cure and you are on top, to stay
there. The maintenance of the cure is important, is just as important as getting the
Cure itself. When a person has pneumonia or tuberculosis, even though they are
completely well, even though the bugs are already killed and the disease one-hundred
percent, no doctor would ever advise that patient to take a job as a sand-hog and
expose themselves to silicosis, because there's too many other things to do, too many
other ways to be effective and to put an individual right back in the environment
where the disease processed, could start again. For this reason it's very important that
even though you're completely cured and you are completely cured one-hundred
percent, you can go anywhere, you can do anything, you can be anything, but the very
best climate for you to be effective in is not that climate in which you would be
constantly exposed to drugs. Not because there's any danger to you, because you're
already cured, but simply because you don't put a patient who just recovered from an
illness back in the ward with all the sick people. You segregate the sick from the
well. You give the patient time to convalesce even though they are well, time heals
all wounds and makes us strong. Stronger and stronger with every day that passes.
Strong in body, strong in mind and strong in spirit. Better able to withstand disease.
Dis-ease. And that's very important to you, extremely important because that's
exactly what's going to happen. Namely, you're going to be very happy and contented
because you have licked this problem, completely and thoroughly, one-hundred
percent and because of this, you are going to avoid drugs like the plague, and places
where drugs are, like the plague. It's important that you have a certain amount of
time to develop a complete stability in every area of your life, because that's what
you really want to be and you're going to be, and that's stable, adequate, and
effective. Your cure is permanent in every way and it's going to stay that way. Your
cure is final and you are safe. STABLE, ADEQUATE, FINAL and EFFECTIVE.
Those four words, the initials spell "SAFE" and you're going to remember it and
never forget it. You're never going to forget it! You're going to remember it and it's
going to become a permanent part of your mind. You're going to be safe. You're
going to safe, SAFE, SAFE. "S" stand for stable, you're going to be stable, more
stable than you ever have been in your life. "A" stands for adequate. You're going to
be adequate very adequate in every way, all the time. Nothing can throw you. "F"
stands for final, your cure is permanent and final in every way. And "E", "E" is the
most important of all because you're going to be effective. What good is it to be
stable and have a permanent cure if you just sit there and don't do anything? You re
going to be effective, effective in your work. Effective in your play, effective in
every single area of life and you put them together and they spell safe, SAFE, and
that's what you are, SAFE. Now sleep, sleep, and let that suggestion take complete
and thorough effect upon your mind, body and spirit, sealing itself in the deepest part
of your subconscious mind, never to be removed. You are safe, SAFE, stable,
adequate, final and effective. Safe, and every single time that you have any difficulty
whatsoever, you feel depressed in the least way or anything comes up that bothers
you, you are going to see that word right in front of your eyes, SAFE, and that's
going to tell you in every way and re-enforce those suggestions over and over. That
word SAFE is going to take the place of all the problems you had in the past because
SAFE is going to solve them. Drugs never solved anything for you, they're gone,
they're finished. It's a final and permanent cure. (now you're going to convalesce for
a few months, or as long as you need to, and in a climate, and I'm speaking of social
and political climate, where drugs have no part, and after you have convalesced,
you'll be as strong as anyone ever was, mentally, physically, and spiritually. You can
go where you want and do what you want. But until then, you're now permanently
and completely cured and you are in a convalescent period and you're going to do
wonderfully in every way.) Now sleep deeply and be safe in every way. I'm going to
give you a few moments of silence, during these moments of silence all these
suggestions take complete and thorough effect upon you, mind, body and spirit. This
period of silence begins now. 

DRUGS

You are relaxed now and because you are so relaxed you begin to feel free from all
tension, anxiety and fear. You now realize that you are more confident and sure of
yourself because you have taken this enormous step toward helping yourself. 

You begin to feel this strength from within, motivating you to overcome any and
every obstacle that may stand in the way of your happiness and your freedom from
drugs. 

You will find that from this moment on you are developing more self control. You
will now face every situation in a calm, relaxed state of mind. Your thinking is very
clear and sharp at all times. 

You begin to feel that your self respect and confidence are expanding more and every
day in every way. You now realize that in the past, drug use was an escape and a
control. You are becoming a happy person now with a positive attitude toward life.
You are succeeding now and you have all the abilities necessary for you to break the
drug pattern. 

You now choose to be free from drugs. This is your decision. You can do it. You can
easily do it. You have my help (and the help of your partner) and you will find it easy
to do. 

As of now you have a very strong determination to be free of drugs. With each
passing day your determination to be free of the drug habit becomes stronger and
stronger. 

Your desire to be free of drugs is so important to you that if someone should suggest
a party to you, you will find that their reasons for having a party are not good enough
and that your reasons for stopping this drug habit are more important. 

You are always free to make choices and decisions for your own well being and you
choose now to be free of drugs. You know that it was unhealthy and brings a lot of
unhappiness into your life. At one time you felt that it was a good idea to get into the
drug scene. It served a purpose in your life at that time. It no longer serves that
purpose. 

Now the only purpose it serves is to bring you further away from health and true
happiness. You realize that drugs are a deadly trap and ultimately, no real good can
come to you while you are using drugs. You are now making a new decision for
yourself. You choose the path to real health and happiness. You now choose to be free
from drugs and you are determined to make this happen for you.With each passing
day and with each passing moment you realize that your desire and your self
determination to be free of drugs is stronger than the hold that the drugs had on you.
You know that you can be free of drugs for short periods of time and you are now
moving away from drugs for longer and longer periods of time and you are doing less
each time you do drugs. 

You have great confidence in yourself that you can in fact be free of drugs and that
you can do it. Whenever you avoid the use of drugs in situations where you would
have done drugs before, you feel very, very proud of yourself and very sure that you
did the right thing for yourself. 

You have watched others lose their health and physical well being and you are now
realizing that you do not want this to happen to you. 

You are now so determined to regain your health and get back to your normal weight,
the weight that you should be, that you now gain complete control over your habit.
Control means that you not only have the power to walk away from a line, but that in
fact you do just that. You can do it. And each time you do walk away from doing a
line, you will find it easier to walk away from the next temptation. You are getting
stronger and stronger and very proud of your new strength to walk away from drugs. 

You are now proving your inner strength to yourself and to others each and every
time that you refuse to do a line. You know that this is only a bad habit and you can
overcome a habit. So you are changing this habit. 

You are beginning to find that there are two things which give you more pleasure
than your drugs. First you find that you want to take a nice long deep breath
whenever you think of doing drugs. This nice long deep breath will help you to feel
more calm, more relaxed, and you will feel very peaceful inside. Your mind and
body will become calm and relaxed, too calm and relaxed to need to do a line. You
will decide to put off doing drugs until some time in the future and you will forget to
do drugs at that time. Taking a nice long deep breath makes you feel so good, so calm
and so relaxed that you will no longer have any desire to do a line. Rather you will
put it off to some time in the future and you will forget to do the drugs at that time. 

You will now find that you are getting hungry at meal times and you find a great deal
of enjoyment in the food you eat. You find that you want to eat good nutritional food
and so you eat and satisfy any craving for drugs. You never eat to excess, but you find
that by eating three good meals daily, you feel better physically and this reduces your
need for drugs. 

(You now have a strong feeling of responsibility to your partner, and you are feeling
responsible for your partners health and well being. Since you know that drugs are
not good physically, mentally or emotionally for your partner, you help him/her by
gently reminding him/her to stay away from the drugs. You set an example for your
partner by not doing a line at a time when you easily could. You show him/her how
YOU can do it and encourage your partner to do the same. You help your partner to
postpone doing a line for an hour or so and then maybe even another hour after that.
You find ways to help him/her forget to do drugs. You find that you can easily forget
to do drugs because it offers you nothing but problems in the future. 

You are now working as a team to help each other to move away from drugs.
Working as a team, you are very strong and determined to forget drugs. You find
ways to avoid doing a line and find good reasons for not doing that line. 

You help each other away from drugs by doing things which you mutually enjoy and
which do not involve drugs. You feel that it now is your responsibility to gently help
your partner to forget about doing drugs and your responsibility to cooperate and to
feel good about what he/she is doing for you. You are never upset when your partner
tells you to take a deep breath and forget doing a line at this time. You appreciate it
and you know your partner is on your side. You are now getting the help you need
and you are proud of yourself for having reduced your drug habit. You feel good.) 

EASING SOMEONE FROM YOUR MIND

You now mentally erase (person to be erased) from your thoughts. You detach
yourself from the negative mental associations and your life is joyful and fulfilling.
The undesirable memories of (person) fade quickly away and you mind is calm and
tranquil. 

You are self contained, self sufficient and self reliant. You do not need nor want
anyone who is negative in you life and you now mentally erase them. 

The undesirable memories of (person) no longer affect you for you are at peace and
totally detached from them. The words and actions of other people have no effect on
you. 

The divine white healing light now surrounds you and floods you with a sense of
strength and well being in your mind, body and spirit. 

It is done. 

ENERGY

(Give a progressive relaxation induction then proceed as follows) 

Survey your entire body and see if you have an energy leak. Can you see where
energy is escaping? (If yes, have them repair the leak. If no, assure the client that this
is great.) 

Visualize a ray of pure compatible energy flowing into your body. This wonderful
ray is completely re-energizing your body and your mind. There is also an outflow
of energy. See it. Now that your energy is replenished, there is an easy and equal
inflow and outflow of vitalizing energy throughout your body. 

Feel this energy field around your body getting very strong. You now have energy to
spare. You feel refreshed, re-energized yet relaxed. 

Any situation or person that might have drained your energy in the past can now
longer effect you in any way. (See PROTECTIVE SHIELD script) Your shield of
protection neutralizes all negatively. 

ESP DEVELOPMENT

You are unaffected by negativity and retain the ability to enjoy all of the warmth and
joy that life has to offer. You are totally detached from negativity. You are open and
receptive to love. You do not complain. You accept other people as they are without
expecting them to change. You are patient, calm and harmoniously centered at all
times. You let go of all fear-based emotions such as blame, jealousy, guilt and
possessiveness. These negative emotions are now a part of your past. 

You are independent and self-responsible and fully realize that you have unlimited
ability to create your own reality. You are rapidly developing perception and psychic
powers. The psychic power is within and is your divine right. Infinite Spirit gives
you the wisdom to increase your psychic powers and awareness. You trust you
intuitive processes. Your thoughts have psychic validity and you now trust your
thoughts. 

You have extra-sensory and precognitive abilities. You listen to that inner self. You
follow the magical path of intuition and your psychic powers increase tenfold.
Everyday your awareness increases and you receive many premonitions of things.
You have the total ability to concentrate totally upon the subject of your immediate
focus, whether business, pleasure or meditation. You keep your mind calm like
water. You remain centered at all times, physically relaxed, emotionally calm,
mentally focused and spiritually aware. 

EXAM ANXIETY

You will be able to remember what you have learned. You will recall the correct
answers with ease because you are prepared. You will take your examination with a
relaxed body and a clear sharp mind. 

The minute you pick up your exam questions you will be completely calm and
relaxed. You are very calm and relaxed. You feel very confident because you have
studied and prepared. As you read the exam questions, the answers come to you
easily. You are very calm and relaxed. You remember all of the information that you
need. You are very calm and relaxed. 

Take one question at a time and you know that you will do well. You are confident
and relaxed. 

EXAMS

All information you have ever received is recorded. Taking an exam provides an
opportunity for you to practice your recall. You now completely prepare for exams. 

The art of taking exams is in knowing what your instructor wants. You now see very
clearly what answers are desired. There is no confusion when reading the questions as
to what is meant by the questions. All questions are clearly stated. 

You no longer become nervous when taking exams. At any time you feel you might
become nervous, you simply take a deep breath and the nervousness will go away. 

FRIGIDITY

Sex is no longer an inconvenience to you. You can easily reach a climax when you
choose. You are just as good as any other woman sexually. You are a confident and
competent lover. Sex is for both men and women to enjoy. Between consenting adults
any expression of love and sex is okay. 

You feel no guilt about enjoying sex. You experience no pain or humiliation with
sex. Nothing is wrong with you mentally because you have had difficulty in the past
reaching a climax. 

It is easy for you to express your love physically. Sex is a beautiful, natural
expression. You can reach climax as quickly as you choose. 

At night you sleep soundly and deeply. During the night you find that your sleeping
hours relieve you of much stress and strain and when you awaken in the morning you
feel refreshed, invigorated and you find that you look forward to a new day. You feel
good because you deserve to feel good. You go to sleep easily and quickly now. 

When you put your feet on the floor in the morning you automatically tell yourself "I
feel good". You find that now your days are more calm, more relaxed and you handle
situations easily without letting them upset you. You take a deep breath often and
realize that this is helping you get through each and every day with less and less
tension and you feel good about that and yourself.

what you want out of life. You have the self-discipline to stick with your goals until
they are accomplished. You allow only positive and winning thoughts to flow

HEALING TEMPLE

At the count of 3, see yourself projected back in time to the most famous healing
temple known. 1 - 2 - 3. You are now standing outside the most famous healing
temple of all time. 

(Pause 1 minute after each of the following suggestions) 

Enter the temple and meet the physicians and priests who will be working with you. 

You are now going through all of the diagnostic tests. 

Now the diagnosis has been completed and you can see yourself being perfectly
healed, participating with the priest and physicians in the healing process. 

See yourself perfectly healed, leaving the ancient healing temple; being projected
back to the present time bringing with you the feelings and the energies which you
have created. 

Take a deep breath, open your eyes and stretch comfortably feeling the healing
energy flow throughout your body.

pounds. Situations that used to bother you now seem as opportunities to feel relaxed
and in complete control. 

HYPNOTHERAPIST:BEINGAPROFESSIONAL

Hypnosis brings to you emotional, intellectual, social and financial eminence among
your peers. 

You are rapidly moving towards the satisfaction of your deepest needs, and the
realization of your highest goals. And so be it. 

Now each of these ideas continue making a permanent, deep, vivid impression on
your subconscious mind. Each day in you daily life, you will become more and more
aware of the full, powerful, positive creative expression of these ideas. 

>From this time forward, with each passing day, you become more and more aware of
a personal feeling of well-being and confidence. Confidence that each day brings you
one step closer to each of your goals. 

Your clients respond strongly to you. You are an exceptional hypnotist. Your past
experiences and your present studies serve you well. 

You are fully alert to your client's responses. With rapid and sharp perception, you
observe changes in their posture, their voice quality, their breathing, and emotional
tone. You listen and carefully observe your client's verbal responses and body
language. 

During an induction, you speak fluently and melodiously, creating an atmosphere of
safety and comfort. You trust yourself as you confidently allow your own unique
style to surface and flourish. Because you are relaxed and poised, you speak clearly
and easily. 

Life is good and the present moment commands your focused attention. You are
relaxed and interested as you begin the therapeutic interview. You ask about previous
experiences with hypnosis. You search out your clients attitudes, beliefs and
questions about hypnosis. 

You readily enter into the world of your client. You listen openly and with focused
attention to what your client has to present. Because you are competent, skilled and
knowledgeable, you speak easily and with authority. 

Your clients are eager to be hypnotized by you. They appreciate your poise, your skill
and your caring. Your clients expectations make you feel good. 

You plan and arrange your daily schedule with care. You allow yourself time for
personal recreation and relaxation. It is easy for you to keep to your schedule because
you plan it so well. 

Each time you hypnotize a client you feel an exhilarating surge of confidence and
enthusiasm. You easily remember your many successful and rewarding experiences
in helping other clients. You are highly skilled at understanding and guiding others,
and you easily accept the praise and approval that others give to you. 

>From deep within your own center, your confident voice calmly resonates. Your eyes
radiate strength, courage, and compassion. Your appearance, your voice, and your
methods of communication all express confidence in yourself, in your skills and in
your ability to help others. Your manner is relaxed and assured. You easily express
the right word, the right phrase, the right gesture, and the appropriate feeling when
communicating with your client. 

Your clients are relaxed and trusting of you for they sense your deep interest in them.
You are positive, persuasive and a force for good. Your highest desire is to bring joy
and happiness into the lives of others. You stimulate wonderful, positive and exciting
thoughts and feelings in the people you counsel. You now realize that you are an
exceptionally talented and highly creative person. You use what you have chosen
from all that you have learned. 

I WOULD IF I COULD

Now as you begin to listen to my voice I would like you to close your eyes, relax, let
go and let my voice make all the effort necessary. As you relax for the next few
minutes you let it be a pleasure. Begin NOW to enjoy the feeling of being able to
choose to relax, to let go, and to be able to go inside and turn the world off. 

As you relax for the next few minutes you are going to learn to enjoy, gradually,
effortlessly, and settle into a feeling called hypnotic sleep. It is an ability your mind
already has inside to relax, to settle into a neutral state. 

When you came in today, you had a dream in mind; something you wanted to make
happen in your life. "I would if I could" has an ending now. The words that will go
through your mind, many times a day, comfortably, is "I can". You believe it, You
begin to feel the pride, the confidence that makes it all happen. 

You begin to feel comfortable with your past, and your past is a very valuable piece
of education. A very important piece of experience that has use to you. So as you
relax and as you let your body go, you refuse to build your life on any form of guilt.
It has no value to you. What you did in the past was the best you could do at the time.
The very best effort you were able to make. The only reason you know that is because
you are better now. You are better now because you see yesterday through today's
eyes. You have matured and grown. You understand that there is no value in guilt.
Only education and experience has value for you. 

Your childhood programming and experiences were controlled by circumstantial
accidents. You are going to keep the pieces you like and agree with, but any feelings,
any doubts or fears that might live inside you, anything you don't like about your
feelings and attitudes, those things are not yours. They happened to you by accident.
You are not going to take them. You are going to reject them as over and done and
gone. 

Now you are going to make each day happen, your way. You are going to mature into
that attitude easily. New experiences are going to help you mature into that kind of
person that you want to be. You honestly believe that you are all you need to be to
succeed, that you can have all the things you need to compliment you success. You
feel this now and increasingly everyday. 

For now, relax and experience that attitude. For what you are doing right now is
choosing to turn the world off, to go inside, to relax, to feel a sense of control better
that you have ever had. That is a reality. Keep it. Use it. 

You are going to begin to believe that positive, successful experiences from the past
contain valuable emotional strength and depth that you have earned. Those feelings,
those emotions belong to you. Just like any old familiar song, or personal photograph,
positive emotions will bring back buried emotion. Bring back feelings you think you
have forgotten about. Spontaneously, they will come back by accident throughout
your day. Realize that positive memory pictures can flash into your mind and carry
with them the same pride, the same happiness you felt with the original experience of
months or years ago. 

Those feelings belong to you. Begin to enjoy feeling the best pieces of memory as
they begin to come to you. For now relax, let your body go. Feel your body relaxing
easily. A melting sensation floods your body. Relax deeper and deeper as you listen
to me and let the world fade away. As you listen to me, some of those positive
images will flow through your mind. You are going to use the best within you. If you
ever felt pride, confidence, courage, success and a need to be something special you
can still own those feelings and attitudes. Let them come forward as an honest active
part of your life, on purpose. You must use your best, use your best feelings or you
are going to lose them. They are too valuable. Don't let them go. 

I want you to begin to practice seeing things as they really are. You are maturing and
you will find great pride in that emotion. You begin to realize the final choice, as to
how you are going to feel in any situation, is always yours, no one can make it for
you. No one does anything to you, it is your choice as to whether you are going to
allow them to control your life in any way, shape or form. It is your choice, not
theirs. You are unique as a person. You are one of a kind. You will find that people
may do what you do but no one can do anything, no one can ever do it the way you do
things. You are and have been very special at birth and there is no reason in the world
to doubt your individual value at any point in your life. Enjoy that feeling. It is real. 

Failure does not exist. There is no such thing. Only your degree of success ever needs
to be measured by you. Even your most pitiful degree of success is a seed for the
future. It will grow with any kind of attention at all that you give it. Fear is always a
fantasy. There again so is success. 

You alone are going to choose which one of these the world will see as being real.
Relax now. Remember "I would if I could". "I would" is a dream and a very good
dream. "If I could" is the search for a plan or a way to make it happen for yourself. "I
can" is the harmony of all the feelings and thoughts that make your life happen, on
purpose, successfully. 

When you hear my voice, relax, let it feel good, believe it. Don't waste my time or
yours. Make it happen. Make your life happen on purpose. Each and every suggestion
you have heard on this tape will register deep within your subconscious mind. 

On the count of five, your eyes will open sparkling clear, your mind feeling alert. 

IMPROVING HEARING

(Describe a healing light.) 

Visualize your ear. Now, lets start at the outer ear and check for any and all problems
and correct them as you go. Take the healing light with you as you go. 

Check the hair in the outer hear, the wax glands, moving now into the middle ear
check the eardrum, the hammer, the anvil, the stirrup. 

Moving now into the inner ear, check the cochlea and the organ of corti, check the
semicircular canals, the auditory nerve, and auditory tube. 

Trace the impulses to the hearing center of the brain and check for any blocks or
interruptions. Set up rapid and instantaneous healing. 

See yourself in a situation where you no longer have any trouble. 

As you do your hearing exercises you will hear better and better with every passing
day until you have returned to 100% hearing ability, feeling great. 

Remove any thoughts that might interfere with perfect hearing. 

INNER ADVISOR

Take a few slow, deep, abdominal breaths ... Inhale ... Exhale ... Inhale ... Exhale ...
Focus your attention on your breathing for a few minutes ... And recognize how
easily slow, deep breathing alone can induce a nice state of deep relaxation. Let the
body breath itself ... according to its own natural rhythm ... slowly ... easily ... and
deeply ... Now take a signal breath ... a special message that tells the body you are
ready to enter a state of deep relaxation ... Exhale ... Breathe in deeply through your
nose ... and blow out through your mouth... 

Remember your breathing ... slowly and deeply ... As you concentrate your attention
on your breathing, imagine a ball of pure energy or white light that starts at your
lower abdomen and as you inhale, it rises up the front of your body to your forehead
... and as you exhale, it moves down your spine, down your legs, and into the ground
... Again ... imagine this ball of pure energy or white light rise up the front of your
body to your forehead as you inhale ... and as you exhale, it goes down your spine,
down your legs, and into the ground ... Circulate this ball of energy around for a few
moments ... and allow its circulation to move you into even relaxation and comfort ...

Each time you inhale and exhale, you may be surprised to find yourself twice as
relaxed as you were a moment before ... Twice as comfortable ... Twice as peaceful ...
For with each breath, every cell of your body becomes at ease ... as all the tension,
tightness, pain, or discomfort drains down your spine, down your legs and into the
ground ... Continue to circulate this ball of energy around for a few moments ... As
you allow yourself to enjoy this nice state of deep, peaceful relaxation, return in your
mind's eye to your personal place ... (DESCRIBE THE CHARACTERISTICS OF A
PERSONAL SPOT IF THE SUBJECT DOES NOT ALREADY HAVE ONE.) Let
your imagination become re-acquainted with every detail of this beautiful spot ...
Sense the peaceful beauty all around you ... Stretch out ... Relax ... And enjoy it. 

As you relax in your favorite spot, put a smile on your face ... and slowly look around
... Somewhere, nearby, some living creature is waiting for you ... smiling and waiting
for you to establish eye contact ... This creature may immediately approach you or it
may wait a few moments to be sure that you mean it no harm ... Be sure to look up in
the trees or behind bushes, since your advisor may be a bit timid ... But even if you
see nothing, sense his or presence and introduce yourself ... Tell your advisor your
name, and that you mean no harm, for you have come with only the friendliest
intentions. Find out your advisors name ... The first name that comes to your mind ...
Right now ... 

Sprinkle some food out before you ... and ask your advisor if he or she is willing to
come over and talk with you for a few moments ... Don't be alarmed if your advisor
becomes quite excited and starts jumping up and down at this point ... Often advisors
have been waiting a long time to make this kind of contact ... Until now your advisor
has only been able to talk to you sporadically through your intuition ... Tell your
advisor you are sorry you have not listened more in the past, but that you will try to
do better in the future... 

If you feel silly talking in this way, tell your advisor that you feel silly ... that it is
hard for you to take this seriously ... but if you sincerely want your advisor's help,
make that very, very clear ... Tell your advisor that you understand that like in any
friendship it takes time for feelings of mutual trust and respect to develop ...
Although your advisor knows everything about you, since your advisor is just a
reflection of your inner life, tell your advisor that you won't push for any simple
answers to important questions that you may be dealing with ... Rather, you'd like to
establish a continuing dialogue ... so that any time you need help with a problem,
your advisor can tell you things of great importance ... things that you may already
know, but you may have under estimated their significance ... 

If there is a problem that has been bothering you for awhile, ask your advisor if he or
she is willing to give you some help with it ... Yes or no? ... Your advisor's response
is the first answer that pops into your mind ... Pose your questions as you exhale ...
And the first response that comes into your mind as you inhale is your advisor reply
... An inspiration ... Ask your question now ... (PAUSE) ... 

What did your advisor reply? ... Ask any other questions that are on your mind
(PAUSE) ... Continue your dialogue for a few moments ... asking your questions as
you exhale ... and listening to the response that pops into your mind as you inhale ...
(PAUSE) ... 

Remember, your advisor knows everything about you, but sometimes, for a very
good reason, he or she will be unwilling to tell you something ... This is usually to
protect you from information you may not be ready to deal with ... When this occurs,
ask your advisor what you need to do in order to make this information available to
yourself ... Your advisor will usually show you the way ... (PAUSE) ... If there is
something that you would like your advisor to be thinking about between now and
the next time you meet, tell this to your advisor now ... (PAUSE) ... If there is
anything your advisor would like you to think about between now and the next time
you meet, find out what that is now ... (PAUSE) ... 

Set up a time to meet again ... a time that is convenient for you and a time that is
convenient for your advisor ... Be specific as to exact time and place ... Tell your
advisor that although these meetings are important to you, part of you is lazy or even
reluctant to follow through ... 

One way your advisor can help motivate you to continue to meet periodically is by
giving you a clear demonstration of the benefits you can gain ... a demonstration so
powerful that you will be moved to work even harder in getting to know yourself ...
If you are in pain, for example, ask your advisor if he or she will be willing to take
away that pain completely ... right now, just for a few moments, as a demonstration
of power ... If so, tell your advisor to do it ... now ... 

(LONG PAUSE) 

Notice any difference? If you are willing to do your share of the work, by relaxing
yourself and meeting periodically to set things straight, there is no limit to your
advisor's power ... Ask for any reasonable demonstration that will be undeniably
convincing to you of this power... 

You might be, for example, somewhat forgetful ... and although you want to continue
these meetings with your advisor, you might forget the exact time and place that you
agreed to meet ... If so, ask your advisor to help you by coming into your
consciousness just a few moments before it is time to meet, to remind you of the
meeting. 

Before leaving, tell your advisor you are open to having many different kinds of
advisors ... And that you will leave this totally up to your advisor's discretion ... If
your advisor wants to bring other advisors along the next time you meet, fine ... is
there anything your advisor would like you to bring along with you the next time you
meet? ... If so, find out what that is ... (PAUSE) ... 

See if your advisor will allow you to establish physical contact ... This is very
important ... just about every animal on the face of the Earth loves to have its face
stroked and its back scratched ... see if your advisor will allow you to make this
contact now ... (PAUSE) ... While making this contact, find out if there is anything
else that your advisor would like to tell you ... If so, what is it? ... (PAUSE) ... 

Is there anything that you would like to tell your advisor before you leave ... If so, do
it now ... (PAUSE) ... 

In a moment, you will take the signal breath to return from this meeting ... But
before you do, tell yourself that each time you make contact with your advisor the
communication will flow more and more smoothly ... more and more easily ... more
and more comfortably ... Tell yourself that when this experience is over, you will
feel not only relaxed, rested, and comfortable, but also energized with such a
powerful sense of well being that you will be able to respond easily to any demands
that may arise ... 

To end this exercise for now, take the same signal breath that you used to begin it ...
Exhale ... Breathe in deeply through your nose ... Blow out through your mouth ...
And be well. 

INSOMNIA

Visualize that you are a sponge being wrung of stress, down and out your toes. Take 3
deep breaths and "sleep now". Hear my voice only until your relaxation therapy is
complete, then you will go into a deep easy natural sleep. 

Because you want to get a full nights sleep, and because you want to awaken in the
morning feeling completely refreshed, rested and full of pep and energy, each night
as you retire you relax every muscle in your body by taking 3 deep breaths. After
each breath you say to yourself SLEEP NOW. An let every muscle and nerve go
loose and limp. After the third breath you are so completely relaxed you immediately
drift off into a deep and restful slumber which remains unbroken until morning.
Only an emergency awakens you and if this happens you return to bed after attending
it and go to sleep within 60 seconds. It is easy for you to relax and go to sleep because
you expect to sleep. Throughout your sleep, you are contented and pleasantly relaxed. 

You always relax completely upon taking 3 deep breaths and at bedtime you always
go to sleep as you relax. You sleep soundly and comfortably and without effort.
Throughout your sleep you feel calm, contented and relaxed and you carry this calm,
contented sense of relaxation over into you waking hours. You always awaken at your
usual rising time and feel wonderful! Completely relaxed, rested, alert and cheerful!
Your eyes open, you sit up and put your feet on the floor immediately, you stretch,
and you feel good. Really ready for another wonderful day. You thoroughly enjoy
your deep restful sleep and at bedtime you just take 3 deep breaths and think "SLEEP
NOW" after each breath, and you go to sleep automatically. All of these thoughts
come to you when you relax and say "SLEEP NOW". 

I am now going to bring you through the colors of the rainbow. The colors are
red/orange, yellow/green, blue, purple/lavender, and white. As I go through the
colors you will go deeper and deeper into natural sleep. On the color white you will
easily and gently reach over and turn off the machine that is playing this tape. After
you turn off the machine, you will go into a very deep and very relaxed state of
natural, normal sleep. 

Red/orange ... slowly, calmly, easily and gently going into deep, normal sleep. 

Yellow/green ... every nerve and muscle in your body is loose and limp and relaxed,
as you go deeper and deeper into natural sleep. 

Blue ... from head to toe you feel good, you feel perfect in every way, you go deeper
and deeper into natural sleep. 

Purple/lavender ... your mind and your body are now going into a very deep and
healthful slumber. You feel good, and at the next color, you gently and easily,
without disturbing your restful slumber, reach over and turn off your machine, then
you go into deep restful and natural sleep for the entire night. 

White ... easily and gently now reach over and turn off your machine that is playing
this tape. SLEEP NOW. SLEEP NOW. SLEEP NOW. 

JEALOUSY

You are totally self confident in every area of your life. Other people will not bother
you with remarks or their achievements. You are a valuable contribution. No one can
offer what you have to offer except you. Love is what you are, not what you do or
say. 

When you find yourself in a situation where you feel jealousy, you will now easily
release the negativity in your heart or in your mind and replace it with divine love.
Feel the love coming from within you and encircling you like a bubble of pink
radiance, filling your entire being, every cell and every fiber of your body. Love is
complete trust fulfilled. 

LIBRARY SCENE

I would like for you to use your imagination. I would like for you to imagine
yourself standing in front of a door. This may be a door you have seen in the past or a
door you see in your imagination. You try to open the door and discover it is locked.
There is a table standing next to the door with a key on it. You pick up the key, insert
it in the lock. The door unlocks easily and effortlessly as you walk into a library. You
take notice at the books lining the walls of the library. This is a special library
because all of the books in this library are about you. The books on the left side of the
library are all of the good things that have ever happened to you. The books on the
right are all of the not-so-good things. The books closest to you are embossed with
the year 19xx (current year) and as you move further back into the room, the books go
back in chronological order all the way back to the beginning of your time. 

I would like you to find a book for me. This book will try to hide. It will think it can
outsmart you. But you know that you can outsmart it. The title of the book is
(LOOSING WEIGHT/SMOKING AND EXCUSES TO CONTINUE) (or any book
title which you can think of which expresses the conflict your client is working
through.) Take your time and find this book. When you find the book, take it off of
the shelf and let me know you have it by raising the first finger of your right hand.
Good. Find a trash can in your library and toss the book into the trash. Pick up the
trash can and find a door in your library which leads down into the basement. There
are ten steps which go down to the basement and as I count from ten to one I would
like for you to allow yourself to become twice as relaxed as you were on the count
before, or if you prefer you can allow yourself to become ten times as relaxed. 10...
9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... on the next count you will be at the bottom of the
staircase and once again I will ask you to use your imagination ... 1. Good. I would
like for you to find yourself walking over to a furnace. There is a fire blazing inside
the furnace. The intensity of the heat is such that the black of the furnace is turning
red. You pick up a poker not far from where you are standing, open up the door of the
furnace and toss the book inside and watch. Watch as the binding begins to blacken
and char and the pages begin to burn and curl. But just before the book is about to go
up in smoke, using the poker, you remove the book from the furnace and let it fall to
the floor. 

This book is trying to kill you. It is trying to control your life. You open the book to
find an entry of each and every time YOU (have taken a cigarette, tried to loose
weight, etc.). You read about the very first time. (You remember who was there with
you. Who lit it for you and how it burned the back of your throat. You probably
gagged and coughed until you finally got into the habit. Naturally, you will be
modifying these portions of the visualization which best fits your particular
situation.) In anger you pick up the book and rip it in two and throw it back into the
fire and watch as it finishes burning. When you are convinced that the only thing 
that's left is a pile of blackened ash, you come back up the steps into the library. 

There is a chair in the library next to a throne, which sits in the middle of the room.
There is a box of unwrapped books lying at your feet. You lift up the first book and
unwrap it. The title of this book is, MY HEALTH AND HAPPINESS. You replace
this book on the shelf where the book you burned once was. Go through the library
now as silent as you can for the next minute and remove any and all of the books you
wish to destroy for once and for all. When you come back up from the basement, let
me know by raising the first finger of your left hand. Silent for one minute) Good.
Allow yourself now to FEEL a great sense of relief as you leave the library.
Remember to lock the door behind you. You walk out into the sunshine taking deep
breaths of air. Allow the sun on your face to act as a wonderful natural tranquilizer
on your system. 

I am going to count now from one to ten. On the count of ten I would like for you to
open your eyes, return to your normal awareness, feeling refreshed, relaxed as if you
have just taken a wonderful nap. 1 ... 2 ... 3 ... all of the suggestions I have given you
today increase tenfold as you leave my office today ... 4 ... 5 coming back now ... 6 ...
7... becoming aware of your arms and legs ... 8 ... on the count of ten open your eyes
WIDE AWAKE ... 9 ... and ... 10 ... WIDE AWAKE. 

MEMORY: RECALL AT WILL

(See PROTECTIVE SHIELD Script) You have a protective shield that neutralized
the "I cant's". You now have total recall at will. Reach in now and remove any block
to your memory. Anytime you feel the block coming back, take a deep breath and the
block melts away. 

Remembering is now a priority for you. It is no longer a battle to remember: it is
easy and natural for you to remember. It doesn't have to be difficult to be
worthwhile. What you need to remember is easy to remember. 

As you receive new information you have total recall of this information at will. All
information that you have ever seen, heard or felt is now totally available to you. 

All information is recorded in your subconscious mind and you now have the ability
to retrieve that information at will. It is and has always been and will always be there
for your easy access. 

MIGRAINE HEADACHES

(Make sure you are not dealing with tumor, poor eyesight, tooth decay, infectious
disease, high blood pressure, head injury, etc.) 

Relax and shape and form the headache and throw it away. As you relax you do not
need the headache. Anytime you feel a headache coming on, you release it. Place the
tips of your fingers on the back of your neck and apply a very gentle pressure and the
tension goes away. 

Whenever the muscles start to tighten or you start to squint your eyes, you become
aware of it immediately and relaxation begins immediately. 

If you have pressure behind the eyes, very gently use your fingertips to brush your
eyelids with an outward motion and the pressure will subside. 

A deep breath will relax the muscles and the headache cannot materialize. 

(Deepen by having the client go down a staircase.) 

At the bottom of your staircase design a release valve for the escape of the tension or
nervousness. Anytime you are in a situation that tension is building, see yourself at
the bottom of your stairs and pull the release valve. Do not let the tension build 

NAIL BITING

Visualize yourself looking great, relaxing, feeling calm. Now I want you to look at
your hands and see how good they look. Your nails are grown out; your cuticles look
healthy. 

You no longer bite your nails. If you start to bite your nails or cuticles, because you
used to do that, your hands will become very visible to you and as your nails grow
and become healthier and healthier you feel better and better about yourself. 

Biting your nails is a nervous habit. Anytime you feel yourself becoming nervous for
any reason, you no longer bite your nails as an outlet. Instead you now take a deep
breath and the nervousness just goes away. (See PROTECTIVE SHIELD script) Your
shield of protection neutralizes the negativity that causes the nervousness. 

See yourself in a situation where you might have bitten your nails in the past. See
yourself handling the situation very easily. You feel no need to bite your nails. 

PAIN CONTROL

Pain is a warning device from you body. You do not need to be warned about your
(specific pain problem) any more. You know the problem is there and you are
correcting it. 

If you need to know about a change, if you need to be warned, you will feel a tingling
in the area instead. You will then see that any new problem is taken care of. 

You no longer feel any pain connected with (specific pain problem) but this in no
way alters your warning pain signals for any other reason. 

I want you now to concentrate a healing light in the area where you desire the pain to
go away and stay away. Set up rapid and instantaneous healing with the healing light.
Feel all tension leaving the area. All pain is completely gone from the area. Feeling
soothed, relaxed and painless. As though the entire area has been anesthetized without
taking away any motor response what-so-ever. You have complete muscle and
motor response but the area has no pain. 

Do no call back the pain. You do not need it. You do not want it. It no longer belongs
to you. 

PAINORANXIETYASTHEOBJECT

And just relaxing deeper and even deeper ... drifting way down now ... deeper and
even deeper relaxed ... and recognizing and realizing how many of us experience
sensations that we regard as unpleasant ... tension, stress, strain and discomfort ... and
we have already learned one method of dealing with these ... and that is ... just
breathing deeply and removing all parts of stress and strain ... 

And using another image now ... another image that can bring us peace, comfort,
contentment and deep relaxation ... and another method that is so powerful it can
remove all the symptoms of stress and strain ... the symptoms of stress and strain are
all very subjective feelings ... we feel them, but as we know only too well it is
difficult to consciously modify our feelings ... and it is much easier to modify object
... and so we are now changing our unpleasant sensations into objects ... 

If you are experiencing pain or discomfort or if you feel tense or anxious ... I want
you to take that unwanted feeling, tension, stress or strained muscle and give it a
shape ... just imagine a shape ... allow yourself to visualize that shape ... it can be any
kind of shape ... it can be an abstract shape or a concrete shape ... and it can be an
object or a geometric design or it can be soft and it can be a color ... whatever shape
or object first comes into your mind is the right shape or object for you ... don't try to
force the shape ... just let it happen ... as you go deeper and even deeper relaxed ... and
you are doing so very well ... you are peaceful, calm and very relaxed... 

And just relaxing and going deeper and even deeper ... give that shape a color ... and
just imagine the size of the shape ... and you can give it a size just by knowing the size
or by picturing it next to an object you know the size of ... and you are recognizing
and realizing that the shape is the symbol of you discomfort ... and the larger the
shape is ... the more severe the discomfort is ... and the smaller the shape is ... the less
the discomfort is ... 

And practicing now ... first making the shape larger ... and then making it smaller ...
and when you make the size of the shape bigger it is easier to make the shape smaller
... and if you have difficulty making the size of the shape smaller .. then use a few
tricks ... if the shape is a balloon you can put a needle into it, or kick it away ... throw
it away ... put it on a boat or an airplane or tie it to the back of a truck and let it drive
away ... 

And realizing that as this symbol is becoming smaller, the feelings associated with it
are becoming less intense and you can make it smaller ... as small and comfortable as
you want to make it ... and you are making it smaller by practicing making it larger
and then smaller ... and you realize that these are skills and as with any skill ... the
more you practice the more powerful the skill becomes ... and you are using these
skills ... and using these skills any time you desire ... the more you practice the easier
it is for you to allow these skills to be totally and completely effective ... so very easy
to use and so very powerful ... anytime you choose to use this skill ... and practicing
making the shape smaller and the color of the shape fade ... and every time you do
this it is easier and even easier ... 

I am going to let you rest for a moment but when I awaken you ... you will find that
you can give the shape as size and a color and then instantly ... effortlessly and easily
make the shape smaller and the color fade ... and every time you do this it becomes
easier and even easier ... and when I awaken you the shape is fading and becoming
smaller ...

PROBLEM SOLVING (3STEP)

(Ask the client to review the history and nature of the problem. When the client looks
expectantly to the therapist for an "answer" you are ready to start the formula.) 

Now that you are ready to continue therapy on an even deeper level, you can begin by
simply becoming more sensitive to yourself. (PAUSE). When a deep part of your
inner mind knows it can resolve that problem (PAUSE) you will find yourself
getting more and more comfortable and your eyes will close. 

(If the client does not close his eyes after a reasonable amount of time continue with
the following.) I wonder if there are any other questions or problems you need to deal
with first, before you do the inner work? (Wait, discuss if necessary, and then give
suggestion again.) 

When a deep part of your inner mind knows it can resolve that problem (PAUSE)
you will feel yourself getting more and more comfortable and your eyes will close. 

Now your inner mind can continue working all by itself to solve that problem in a
manner that fully meets all of your needs. (PAUSE) There are memories, life
experiences, and abilities that your inner mind can use in many ways you may not
have realized before. 

When your inner mind knows that you have resolved that problem to the fullest
extent at this time, and that you can deal effectively with it, you will find yourself
wanting to move a bit. (PAUSE) You will open your eyes and come fully alert. 

PROCRASTINATING I

Each time you listen to this tape, you are going to be more receptive subconsciously
to the suggestions that I will share with you. They will begin to build like a fortress,
block by block, stone by stone, as you build your life now to be the greatest success,
to earn the most money that you are possibly able to earn 

You are going to find that beginning now you are success oriented and there is
nothing and no one who can keep you from becoming the success that you desire to
be. You expect to succeed now and you feel a sense of enthusiasm and confidence in
living your new attitudes every day. 

First of all you are going to overcome procrastinating because you want to. You are
going to take a great deal of pride in the fact that you have matured and you are
taking control of your life and beginning to do the things that you put off in the past.
There will be no more nervousness or struggles as you leave behind the old habits.
You are getting yourself more organized and it becomes easy and natural for you.
And you feel a new healthier sense of accomplishment as you cross the
responsibilities and chores off your list. 

You procrastinated sometimes when you faced something that you didn't want to do.
Until now you put those jobs off, but no more. You feel a sense of urgency to
complete and succeed at the things that need to be done. You realize that to become
the person that you want to be and know that you can be, you have got to take care of
some of those unpleasant things and you have got to tackle them like the adult that
you really are. You won't let jobs or tasks nag you or pile up on you anymore. 

You feel a sense of satisfaction as you accomplish more and more every day. You go
for it! And you will have no more immature resistance to yourself. You are an honest
adult and a responsible person and you want to get your life progressing on the rode
to success. You are going to leave procrastination behind and enjoy a sense of
maturing stronger emotionally and mentally every day. 

Every day your work gets easier and easier to accomplish. You feel better every day.
You are going to start by getting those little things out of the way, the kind of things
that use to sidetrack you or divert your attention. Get the little things out of the way.
You will bring yourself up to date on busy work, whether they be errands or
paperwork or just simply doing or writing down those things for you to do today.
None of that will be there to bother you anymore. 

You complete your tasks easily and comfortably and you will have confidence in
yourself and your abilities as you approach your new tasks. You will know that you
can get the job done well, efficiently,and properly. A lack of confidence, a thought
that maybe you can't do what you set out to do, it won't be there to bother you
anymore as you feel as though you have grown out of that feeling. You will know
because you will have the right attitude. You are bound to succeed. You apply
yourself to everything that you set out to do and the work and the success will come
easily and effortlessly. You will enjoy the mature feelings that come with solid
accomplishment day after day and you will realize that you are doing more than you
ever thought you could. And that realization will please you and give you the
confidence to accomplish the next task that needs to be done. 

You are going to stop worrying when jobs come up and you are going to sense the
kind of person that is within you that enjoys the chance to produce. You will delight
in taking action right now doing it now! Your motto becomes "do it now". There will
be no more procrastinating, trying to think of the best way or the perfect way to do
the job before you. You are going to become a doer rather than a worrier. You will
know that the only way to solve problems is to get moving and that's what you will
do. 

Unpleasant tasks are not going to slow you down any more. You will know that the
faster you get them started, the faster they will be done. And with each task that you
finish you will have a feeling of honest satisfaction and accomplishment that you
look forward to. 

You will feel very pleased with yourself and you will be proud that you have become
a more mature positive person. You will feel better about yourself, your life will be
simpler, more carefree, and you will be rewarded knowing you have done your tasks
without waiting. Beginning to realize now and feeling your accomplishments as your
new attitudes become your new feelings. 

New tasks are not going to phase you or scare you. That you haven't done something
before doesn't stop you now. You won't waste time worrying that you can't do the
job exactly right or the way you do the job may not be the best in the world. You will
do the best you can, enjoying it, knowing that your best will get even better. You will
know that no one else will be able to give the task more thought or more effort than
you will. And so you start right with the doing of it, not with thinking. 

You will feel comfortable with yourself, knowing that you are as good as the next
person, perhaps even better. Tackling new jobs will become a positive challenge for
you and you will respond with enthusiasm and interest and an honest sense of effort.
You will learn and grow and be surprised at how well you do. Good things really
begin to happen now and you leave procrastination behind. 

You are going to find that you have more time to do the things that you enjoy; your
family. your friends, and your work. You feel more organized, honestly in control of
your life; and you in fact will be. The things that you have done will become a
pleasure to remember. You feel a sense of reward with each task that you set out to
do. You will come to have a new sense of importance about yourself, knowing you
are no longer a person who puts things off any more because you have matured. You
take your responsibilities seriously as an adult and you begin to have a new sense of
pride, knowing that you are in control, organized and up to date. 

You will enjoy a feeling of success in each and every task that you take on and finish.
You will accept compliments about your personal organization and how well put
together you have become, because it will be true. 

Relax, let it be a pleasure that you honestly do have a choice. You enjoy a sense of
enthusiasm, the excitement, and the pleasure of succeeding in all areas of your life
better than ever before. And as your confidence grows, as your abilities grow, as you
accomplish more and more every day, so it is that you bring in the sales, the
revenues,and earn a living such as you deserve because you feel, you know, you
believe, you deserve to be rich and now you are going to make it happen. 

I am going to bring you back now to your normal awareness ... 

PROCRASTINATION II

Do things now in top priority. 

You use to put off unpleasant or undesirable tasks until the past possible moment. 

Because you use to do that, you might start to fall back into the old patterns and if
you do, you will remember that top priority for you now is to get the unpleasant or
undesirable tasks out of the way first and you will be amused at the fact that you use
to put them off and you will be pleased because you no longer do that. 

Now that you no longer procrastinate the less desirable chores and you get them done
quickly, you really enjoy your leisure, spare time because it is in fact spare time. You
no longer rob the time from undone chores. 

All guilt is completely gone because you no longer steal time that is not yours. 

See yourself surrounded with finished chores and you have a lot of time to spare to
do the things you really enjoy and the time is really yours.

Money is constantly flowing and circulating in your life. 

PROSPERITY II

The secret of success is in the sequence, for each step sets the stage in consciousness
for the one that follows. 

You tune into the presence within and take on the spiritual vibration. You choose that
which is your heart desires, knowing that the reason you have this desire is because
the presence is wanting it through YOU. So you are choosing that which your higher
self has already chosen for you. Then you expect the gift. The things you expect,
mentally and emotionally, you have. Then the mental equivalent is formed in
consciousness. By seeing it in invisible form and experiencing it through creative
visualization, you are clearing the channels of any opposing view. By loving what
you see, you are focusing the flow of divine energy through your consciousness. By
speaking the Word "It is done" you are taking an act of faith that acknowledges the
act of Spirit. At this point the energies are working through you. You now turn
everything over to the master consciousness within. The very energy of God flows
through a consciousness of a like vibration. With deep feeling you express your
gratitude and you move forward with a tremendous sense of poise and confidence as
you take the appropriate action in your world. 

Through this spiritual treatment you are duplicating the automatic activity of Super
Being consciousness in a step-by-step process. As you learn to manifest the
fulfillment of your desires and become more proficient with the treatment, you will
find that your consciousness expands until the entire process is accomplished
independently of your thinking, and this is what it means to "Take no thought". 

Now, if you will join me, we will experience together, Spiritual Treatment. Find a
comfortable chair and sit up very straight. We are going to relax completely. Take
several deep breaths to clear your mind. Breath in and hold to the count of 4 and then
let go with an open mouth. Now repeat the breathing 4 times. A deep breath and as
you do you feel yourself relaxing totally. You let go of all pressing thoughts and
concerns. your breathing in peace and breathing out all negative energy. Now with
your mind and emotional nature, begin to sense and to feel the presence of God that is
all around you and within you. Contemplate this body of light, this all knowing
mind, this heart of Infinite Love that occupies the same space that you do. Let this
joyful spirit fill your consciousness with itself. Feel the dynamic power as your
mental and emotional natures begin to pulsate to that spiritual vibration. You are
now aware of your God-self, the spirit of God within you, and now the Presence
speaks: "I will never leave you nor forsake you. I am with you always for you are my
expression; the light of my light. I have fulfilled myself as you and have given myself
to you. All that I am you are. You are my expression. I am all that you can conceive
of me to be. Your supply, your health, your work, your relationships, your protection.
I am your all. I ask only that you abide in me and look to me for your all sufficiency,
knowing that I withhold nothing. Now choose that which you desire in my name, the
name I AM. ' 

Say to yourself silently, "I am God in expression. God is as me now. And the true self
of me has assumed its rightful position on the throne of my heart, for the feeling of
love tells me so. I now have the power of dominion. I am now a co-creator with God.
I now have divine authority to manifest the fulfillment of my desires. I use this
power rightly and wisely" 

And as you relax in the presence, in your mind see a white screen. On this screen see
the words I CHOOSE with lines following after the word choose on a ruled tablet.
Now fill in the blank spaces after the word CHOOSE. Do this mentally in your own
handwriting. Simply imagine that you are writing on the inner tablet of mind, your
choices, for this particular time in your life. After you have mentally written in your
desire, go back and focus on each word with great clarity. See each word very clearly.
Let the words become deeply impressed in your mind. Now say to yourself silently, I
ACCEPT THE FULFILLMENT OF THIS DESIRE NOW. With all of your mind,
heart and soul accept this fulfillment now. Feel the spiritual idea representing this
fulfillment entering your consciousness. It is the idea of completion. It has moved
into your feeling nature's vibration where it is warm and pleasant with the feeling of
love. 

Accept the good that God has for you now. Because you have accepted the fulfillment
of your desire you now have it. You now have the object of your desire. You no
longer need what you formerly desired for now you have it. You love the feeling of
having. It feels so good. Through this knowledge of having, you know that you are
that which you desire. 

You are abundance. You are radiant perception. You are the ideal relationship. You
are the all sufficiency. You are the true fulfillment of every desire. 

Now in your minds eye, look at the white screen again and on the blank screen begin
to play your mental movie. See yourself doing, being, having and enjoying your good
in overflowing measure. See yourself being joyous, happy, loving and free. Then add
color, sound and dimension to your picture. Etch deeply as we detail in consciousness
knowing that what you are seeing is now, the present time and not a point in the
future. See the best that you can conceive. Lift up your vision and imagine the highest
and most fulfilling scenes that you can produce in your mind. 

Feel the excitement of seeing your desire already fulfilled. It is so wonderful. See it.
Feel it. Know it. With your mind focused on those beautiful images, begin now to let
all the love that you can feel in your heart pour out. Love those images of fulfillment
and say to yourself silently "Oh, how I love what I see. " Love the joyous expressions
and the happy scenes. Love doing what you love to do. Love being what you want to
be. Love having what you want to have. Love the pictures of total fulfillment that
you are now seeing within your mind and feeling within your heart. Now after
several times of visioning your fulfillment, close 'he curtain on the screen of your
mind and turn within yourself. Let the feeling of that presence enter into your heart.
This is the God within, the Christ Presence working within YOU. Nothing is too
good for you to have or to experience. In the name and through the Power of your
master self, the Christ within, you speak the Word. Let there be total fulfillment
now. Let all the good that God has for you come forth and into manifestation now.
Let the Spirit of God work in and through you to meet every need to solve every
problem and appear as the fulfillment of every desire. Your faith in the loving,
givingness of God is mighty. Your good does now come forth into visible form and
experience and your good does now come forth by the Power of your word. It is done
and so it is. 

You now totally and completely surrender to the activity of God which is the only
power at work in your life. Let go and let God be God. Let go and let God do His
perfect work in and through you. Surrender completely now to your Father within, to
His goodwill. Know that even in your highest vision you cannot fully know the glory
and the grandeur that He has planned for you from the very beginning. So now
release your needs and desires. Now willingly accept your highest and greatest good.
Know that by releasing everything to you, the whole creative system in the universe
is in action in your life and in your affairs. Know that only that which is perfect,
plentiful, good, beautiful, loving, peaceful, and joyful is now flourishing forth into
manifestation in your world. 

Thank your Father for this new life of love and light. Thank your Father for total
fulfillment now. Your heart overflows with gratitude and joy. Your cup runneth over
and you are so very thankful. Thank God with praise and love. You now move into
action in your world as a co-creator with God. You always listen to your inner guide
and do that which is in front of you to do, to the very best of your ability. 

Now, as you have made your agreement with the God energy that is you, and with the
Christ energy that is within you, feel the beautiful white light of the presence. Feel it
pulsating through you and around you. Now acknowledge the energy field in which
you function, the auric element of you, the elliptic form of energy that extends 2 feet
above your head and 4 feet under your feet into the ground. For in this mighty force
field is your own personal expression of your God. Acknowledge this 50 billion
watts of energy that is your expression. Be grateful for it. Visualize now the
beautiful sapphire blue of the Christ energy completely filling your auric field. Feel
the peace and the joy that comes to you with it. Now around your head bring in a
dazzling ball of iridescent white light. Set it gently over your head. Feel it sit softly
on your shoulders. Allow it to nestle down into your chest and heart area. This is the
pure God energy. You carry it with you at every moment but you must recognize that
it is there. You must feel it, visualize it and seal yourself within it. This is the you
that is made manifest. Your prosperity is known unto you. For the Father has said
"all that I have is thine". Now bring in the gold and silver cord through the top of
your head. Run it through your body and ground it deeply within the center of the
earth. Know that your connection with the source of all life has been acknowledged
and a blessing given each time the acknowledgement is made. 

Feel yourself sitting within a beautiful rainbow of color. The colors represent every
energy form and every element of supply. Feel the rainbow colors swirling around
your body now, surrounding each and every cell, atom, and molecule. Your body now
absorbs the color it needs for perfect healing, balance and divine expression. Rest
comfortably in the peace and joy with blessings and with love. So it is.

When words are inadequate you act out the emotions you feel, you demonstrate a
level of maturity and perception which is unique. 

When you are called upon to conduct a meeting, you are relaxed and in complete
control of the situation. 

Your face reflects an inner calmness, a sense of well being of self assurance. 

Your conversation is bright and sparkling as well as informative. 

Your talent for expressing your thoughts vividly with enthusiasm favorably
impresses everyone. 

Your large vocabulary, your fluency in speech and your clearness of thought causes a
quiet authority that flows from you. 

Your powerful memory serves you well. 

Your manner of speaking inspires confidence in others and causes them to have a
good opinion of you. 

Each of the ideas is now making a deep and permanent impression on your
subconscious mind and each day of your daily life, you become more and more aware
of the powerful expression of these true concepts. 

Now I'm going to count from three down to one, then I'll say the words "personal
success". This is the time to program your imagination with scenes that represent
your personal success. This is the time when you can see yourself, thinking, feeling
acting in that special way that means personal success. Get ready now: 3 ... 2 ... 1 ...
"personal success". 

>From this time forward with each passing day, you become more and more aware of
a wonderful feeling of personal confidence. Confidence in the realization that each
day brings you closer to your personal goals. Each day is a vital step in your problem
solving, in developing the motivation to change your behavior to move yourself
towards your highest potential, so that you now begin to enjoy a fuller and richer and
more expressive life. 

RAINBOW GARDEN

In this exercise you will practice deep self communication. You will use relaxation
and imagery to stimulate your imagination. By increasing your self awareness, you
will heal, balance, and center yourself. Sit or lie comfortably. Take three deep
breaths and relax. 

Use the power of your mind to stimulate your imagination and increase your self
awareness. You will travel through the Rainbow Garden awakening many levels of
human experience and come to know yourself in completeness. 

So now, begin to visualize yourself near a beautiful hillside that stretches gently
upward in front of you. There will be no allergy problems. Find yourself at the foot
of this gentle hill just following a spring shower and see a beautiful rainbow of many
colors stretching up over a hill and coming to rest just in front of you. At the end of
the rainbow that comes to just in front of you, see a beautiful pouch. 

Pick up this pouch and look inside and see there are many magical seeds. Magical
seeds that you can scatter on your way. And now begin to walk forward to the bottom
of the hill. Reach inside your pouch and scatter some of the magical seeds. In just a
moment, see these magical seeds begin to grow and bloom. See a profusion of red
blooming flowers. See the bright red poppies growing near the ground. Smell the
rich odor of red roses nearby. See red tulips opening to the morning sun. Experience
the feeling of red all around you. And as you walk forward through the deep red
flowers, appreciate your own physical nature. Remember the physical sensations
which bring you comfort and pleasure. Appreciate all of your physical senses, which
allow you to be part of life and to experience the fullness and joy of living. (RED
stimulates the five senses, builds the liver and blood and cleanses and purifies the
skin.) 

Continue to walk upward along the gentle slope of your hill, reaching again into your
rainbow pouch and scatter more seeds. Feel the sense of expectancy for a new birth of
orange blossoms, bursting into bloom around you. Cast your eyes on the field of
orange surrounding you. See tufts of orange marigolds. Watch the birth of crocuses -
orange buds opening to the light. See birds of paradise growing profusely and filling
your awareness with the color orange. Visualize an increased growth of the color
orange. Reflect for a moment on the value of contact with your fellow human beings.
Appreciate the importance of interaction with others. Realize that you gain through
social activities and contact with other people. Recognize the beautiful ability you
have to interact with fellow human beings. Now allow yourself to move into the next
region of the garden (ORANGE: builds lungs, thyroid, and bones. Relieves cramps
and muscle spasms.) 

Feel your awareness glow with anticipation as you scatter your magic seeds.
Experience the strong bold essence of yellow. See sunflowers growing strong and tall
- yellow light reflected from their petals. Pass through the daffodils and feel their
yellow cups caressing you. Walk gently forward and experience and appreciate the
beauty and fragrance of the yellow roses. See their delicate petals unfolding before
your eyes. Scatter your seeds with assurance that the growth of yellow will flourish.
For the moment appreciate your ability to be discriminating - to flow with change
and to make decisions which will make your life and those around you have more
meaning. Relax and flow with the feeling of gratitude for change, knowing that
change for a soul walking towards the light always denotes growth. Know that
through change real growth can take place. (YELLOW stimulates the lymph system,
intestines, pancreas, and balances out melancholy. The combination of YELLOW /
GREEN for a lemon color activates the thymus, stimulates the brain and helps to
dissolve blood clots.) 

Begin to move upward where you reach the next region of the hillside garden. Reach
into your pouch again and with your magical seeds you feel a deep sense of inner
peace as you scatter seeds which bring forth a lush green growth. See new grasses and
new clover springing up around you. Experience the fresh scent of green pine needles.
See the tiny green leaves of aspen trees fluttering beyond number and sounding like
spring rain in the gentle breeze. As you scatter your seeds which promise a
continuing expansion of green, feel the security of the presence of life and light deep
within you. Get in touch with the health of your body. Feel strength grow deep
within you. Know that you are in control of your health (GREEN stimulates and
balances the pituitary, stimulates building of muscle tissue, destroys germs and
prevents decay.) 

Continue to travel onward to the next region of your grassy knoll and scatter your
magic seeds with a marvelous appreciation for the bluebells springing up to greet you
as you walk. Feel yourself saturated with the feeling of blue blossoms. Look around
at the bushes of lilacs and take another handful of seeds and scatter them, growing
blue flowers. Anticipate the lush growth of blue. Take a moment and revel at your
ability to take a look inside yourself. Feel yourself stopping by a pool of water where
irises grow in lush abundance. Look into the water and see the hue of the irises
brilliantly reflected. Take a drink from this fresh stream. (Feel and appreciate the
Spirit of the Christ within.) Be grateful for your ability to know that this is the
energy and nature of your true being which you allow to be expressed every day in
love, peace and harmony. When you close your eyes for sleep, this is also the
beautiful, peaceful place you go for renewing, restoring and revitalizing your being.
Assure yourself now that every day in your awareness of this beautiful blue energy
you trust intuition and knowledge to magnify more and more (BLUE stimulates the
pineal gland, builds vitality, removes fever, and is a mild sedative.) 

In continuing your upward path you reach inside your pouch spreading more seeds to
find yourself in a vast expanse which surrounds your feet and legs in a lovely field of
violets. Feel yourself experiencing lavender and violet and let the color permeate
your being. Gaze and let your eyes fill with this color of the uppermost part of the
garden. Cast the seeds which will allow an endless growth of violet. Appreciate your
ability to create powerful images and to be totally in charge of your life (VIOLET
builds the spleen, tranquilizes the nervous system, decreases sensitivity to pain and
allows the heart muscle to work less.) 

>From this region of the garden, look to the sky and see the pure light of the sun,
visualize rays of sunshine showering the entire garden and feel ripples of vibration as
drops of pure brilliant light shower the garden with God's energy. Move upward to
the very top of the hill and scatter the remaining seeds around you. Now see and feel
a beautiful profusion of white roses growing close to you. Look around and see the
lush growth of gardenias. In the trees around you are the delicate blossoms of
dogwood. Feel a great joy in the knowledge that every one of the colors and essences
you have experienced in the Rainbow Garden are a necessary part of your being and
in experiencing the colors and forms you identify with the oneness of all life energy.
All aspects of your being vibrate on the various colors, energy frequencies and all are
open to your demand and control for change. All of life's colors and energies needs
are open to your recognition and appreciation. Being a new awareness of life's beauty
and life's love that surrounds you. (WHITE holds all the other colors within it and
motivates man as a balanced unit to function in a loving, peaceful and positive mode.)

As you begin to walk back down life's hillside, through the violet, the blue, the
green, the yellow, the orange and the red flowers, know that you can return to this
hillside garden any time you wish and that each time you do return your inner being
and your outer being will have a new awareness of the hillside. 

As you grow and develop in all aspects of your being, the world around you will
change and beauty will surround you. 

RAPE TRAUMA

Now that you're deeply and fully relaxed - Feeling comfortable, safe and secure - I
want you to visualize yourself as if you are watching yourself on a picture screen.
Can you see yourself? ... Good. Very good. Now, this picture screen in very unique
because it not only is able to go forward and reverse in time - but it two other special
features. The first feature is the "Fading" mechanism. For each and every time you
view certain events on the screen, it will become much dimmer, and, in time will
have faded away completely. The second feature is the "Emotional" mechanism. This
feature enables you to experience emotionally the complete scene on the screen, yet
allowing you to remain physically and emotionally safe with me. 

Now, I want you to view the screen and go back to the time of your sexual assault. I
want you to view this experience from the first moment of its occurrence ... try to
FEEL the total experience in all its various elements. Be aware of certain sounds,
smells, tastes, and touches. Sense the fear the event is bringing about. Express this
fear ... express the thoughts going through your mind ... See rapidly the total event ...
feel it ... live it. See the total event over and over again ... at least a total of six times
... Now stop! ... Stop viewing the event ... Bring your viewing screen back to the
present. 

I am going to place my wrist in your two hands. Grab my wrist and hold tight. I want
you to view on the screen what images of the attacker you can as you squeeze my
wrist ... squeeze it hard and verbally express your hatred and anger at the attacker ...
yell, scream, say any words you want ... let out your feelings towards him ... more ...
more ... louder ... louder ... Good ... Good. Now relax ... just relax. 

Now I want you to feel the soft fleshy part of my forearm. I want you to gently
squeeze my forearm with both hands ... massage my arm as though it were bread
dough ... ever so gently ... and as you do I want you to forgive your attacker. Forgive
him because HE has a problem ... not you. Forgive him because if you don't, you will
never be able to be completely free from what he did to you. Forgive him ... free
yourself ... Say it ... Say you forgive him ... 

That's fine ... just fine. Just relax ... and go deeper and deeper into pleasant relaxation.

Now, by repeatedly viewing the attack scene as we have done, the problems in your
life will decrease to the point where you won't be bothered by them, because each
and every time you go back and experience the scene and express your anger, and then
forward the picture back to the present and forgive your attacker, you will feel the
marvelous emotions of well-being, inner-strength, and self-respect and happiness.
Also, each and every time you go back and experience the scene you will find the
scene has faded considerably. An with this fading will come the contentment and
inner peace that has always been with you. You will feel positive control over your
life with more of an inner strength and self worth than ever before. Each and every
time you leave this office, you will leave with a stronger awareness of your
self-respect and emotion security. Together we will work towards and obtain
complete revitalness of that very special person that you are. The personal strength
that has always been within you will again become a permanent part of your life.
You will quickly discover that the unpleasant situation which brought you here was
caused by the PROBLEMS OF ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL! NOT YOURS! You are
still the same person you were before this experience. In fact, you are even stronger,
because being here proves you are a survivor! The experience was not directed at your
personally. 

Remember, you were only a victim of circumstance. 

Watch the screen now. Feel an inner strength, control and self-respect re-surfacing
and spreading within you. You see and feel yourself as a whole, complete individual
in total control of your life. You have a desire to help others who have been
victimized as you have ... to share your strength with them. To give them guidance.
Doesn't that image on the screen look wonderful? Look closely at that image and feel
the wonderful emotions flowing out of the picture screen and right into you. Do you
see how easy that was? It was easy because what you see on the screen is how you
really feel and how you deserve to feel. Each and every time you view and experience
the situation on this screen the negative feelings will have diminished and in their
place only positive ones will preside. The traumatic experience will become dimmer
each time you experience it on the picture screen and will give way to only positive,
happy and secure emotions. Each day you will become more aware that this
experience robbed you of nothing except momentary grief. Only momentary. Every
day you will look forward to the positive joys life still has for you, and you accept
the experience by facing it squarely here with me. As I'm sure you can see, your
image on the picture screen in one of happiness and self-worth and is becoming,
right now,a permanent part of you life. You will keep this image with you always.
Feel the wonderful emotions that come with this image. You feel contentment,
self-worth, optimistic about your future and have a genuine desire and need to keep
these wonderful feelings with you always. Now,feeling these happy, content, secure
emotions flow completely through you, I m going to count from O to 5. With each
number, these feelings will become a permanent part of you. When I reach 5, you
will be completely awake, feeling refreshed, content and very aware of what we've
talked about. 

READING FASTER

See yourself sitting at your desk or in your favorite chair reading. You are reading at
a very comfortable speed and retaining everything you read. 

I now want you to notice that you are reading at twice the speed that you normally
do. You have not sacrificed any comprehension or retention. In fact, your
comprehension and retention have also improved 

Your eyes have the capability to see much more than you now allow them to see. You
can now accept the rapid rate with which you eyes are capable of seeing and allow
them to do so. The human mind can comprehend at an astronomically fast rate. You
now allow your mind to accept and comprehend at least double the rate that you have
in the past. 

Your reading speed will continue to get faster and faster as quickly as you accept it. 

You now see and comprehend in sentences instead of words, paragraphs instead of
sentences. Becoming faster and faster, more and more efficient every time you read. 

With every book, article, and lesson that you read, you become better and faster and
you feel great because you are realizing a part of your potential you have not realized
before. 

SECRET OF STUDY HABITS

Now let us get deeply relaxed. Place yourself in a comfortable position in your chair,
at your desk or table, with a book in front of you. Put your left hand on your left leg
and your right hand in a position of shielding your eyes from the sun (or light) or in
some other comfortable position. Now that you are comfortable in your chair and
have put aside all distractions and all possible interruption, let your eyes close and
while closed, let them see your favorite things or your favorite TV show, a star
twinkling in the sky, or color changes in your closed eyes or any subject matter that
will hold your entire attention pleasantly. This is most important. Be sure that you
choose something which holds your entire attention. Now, while you are pleasantly
occupied with your subject of complete concentration, I'm going to continue to talk
to you very quietly. Remember, the secret of study is the acquired ability to focus all
your mental awareness on one job and hold it there until the job is done, plus the
ability to retain, recall and put to use what you have learned whenever you need it.
The total process of effective study is the foundation of all progress in education. My
secret of study is the focal point of the total process of study. And now to be sure that
you do not forget the other elements of good study habits, I will remind you of them
now. While you are getting deeply relaxed with each breath you take, you can remind
yourself of the points that are covered on the additional study techniques
accompanying this record. 

No. lYou now know what concentration is. 

No. 2You can train yourself in self-concentration. 

No. 3You can learn how to use a distraction eliminator whenever needed. 

No. 4You can prepare for the job of concentration. 

No. 5You can remove all serious and avoidable distractions from the outer
environment. 

No. 6You can remove all serious and avoidable distractions from the inner
environment. 

No. 7You can command your body and mind to focus on the job at hand. 

No. 8You can make full use of motivation; for instance, you can review every
possible motive for doing this work and you can repeat often that motive which has
the best effect in keeping you on this job. You can keep your mind on your goal. You
can work against deadlines and you can feel good about every improvement in your
study habits. 

No. 9You can foster good physical conditions for study. 

No. 10You can tolerate good attitudes and habits that will help you to study better. 

No. 11You can develop effective methods of reading, 

No. 12You can improve your ability to remember. 

No. 13You can develop effective classroom techniques. 

No. 14You can learn to relax during examinations. 

NO. 15You can learn to use the additional help to concentrate. 

And now for a little change. You will pretend that you feel yourself going down in a
soft bed or in a soft chair or going down in an elevator or on an escalator or on a live
leaf floating down toward the ground. Now you pause for a moment to get yourself
set in the floating-down device. You are getting ready. You can get ready. And now
you pretend that you are starting right here at Level A and you can feel much more
relaxed as you go down to Level B with TWENTY and then deeper and deeper with
NINETEEN and deeper still with EIGHTEEN and still deeper and deeper until
SEVENTEEN and deeper and deeper until SIXTEEN and still deeper and deeper
until FIFTEEN and now still deeper and deeper down to FOURTEEN and still
deeper and deeper until THIRTEEN and still deeper and deeper and deeper till
TWELVE and still deeper and deeper and deeper until ELEVEN and still deeper and
deeper and deeper until TEN and still deeper and deeper and deeper until NINE and
still deeper and deeper and deeper until EIGHT and still deeper and deeper and
deeper until SEVEN and still deeper and deeper and deeper until SIX and still deeper
and deeper and deeper until FIVE and still deeper and deeper and deeper until FOUR
and still deeper and deeper and deeper until THREE and still deeper and deeper and
deeper until TWO and still deeper and deeper and deeper until ONE -- and down
way down deep and deeper and deeper until ZERO. 

Now you are at Level B and you feel much more relaxed than you did and Level A.
And you can begin to feel very much more relaxed as you go down to Level C at
TWENTY and deeper and deeper until NINETEEN and deeper and deeper and deeper
until EIGHTEEN and still deeper and deeper and deeper until SEVENTEEN and
deeper and deeper and deeper until SIXTEEN at Level D and you are ready for the
Secret of Study. With your eyes closed and slowly inhaling and exhaling, mentally
you quietly say to yourself: I am getting deeper relaxed so that I can concentrate on
the job at hand and become more and more informed and deeply engrossed in it. I can
reject and shut the door on all distractions. I will have complete understanding of the
test questions I am reading, and of the study material I am reciting because I am
concentrating. The material I am working on will, without effort, make a deep and
lasting impression on my subconscious. I can easily retain everything that I have read
or studied. As soon as I feel the condition of good concentration, I will slowly open
my eyes. And -- This is most important -- I will open my eyes very slowly. I, very
slowly, open my eyes right now to the book in front of me and I will start reading
and holding my book the normal way. My point of concentration has now shifted to
my book or to the test questions, and while I am concentrating on the job at hand, I
can continue to be influenced by the quiet words in the background. I am deeply
relaxed and concentrated on my work and I can become more and more absorbed and
deeply engrossed in it. I can reject and shut the door on all distractions. I will have
complete understanding of the test questions I am reading and the study material I am
studying. And because I am concentrated, the material I am working on will, without
effort, make deep and lasting impressions -- deep and lasting impressions -- and I
am certain that I can easily retain everything that I have read or studied privately and
everything I have read or heard in class. And all this knowledge will flow freely into
my consciousness whenever I need it. Now I can give a good account of myself in all
my tests, examinations and interviews. And finally, I know this method will help me
just as it has helped thousands of others. I know that I can continue in the
concentrated condition as long as I wish and then whenever I wish to come back to
the unconcentrated condition of daily living, I can just take a deep breath, tell myself
mentally that I can be wide awake and be fully aware of everything around me. Now
I can become wide awake and be fully aware of everything around me. 

SELF CONFIDENCE I

You are relaxed now, and because you are so relaxed you begin to feel free from all
tension, anxiety, and fear. You now realize that you are more confident and sure of
yourself because you have taken the enormous first step to helping yourself. 

You begin to feel this strength from within, motivating you to overcome any and
every obstacle that may stand in the way of your happiness, social life and home life.
You will find that from this moment on you are developing more self control. You
will now face every situation in a calm and relaxed state of mind. Your thinking is
very clear and sharp at all times. 

You begin to feel that your self respect and confidence are expanding more and more
each day in every way. You now realize that in the past you felt helpless and
overwhelmed and you are replacing that with confidence, strength and self control.
You are becoming a happy person now with a positive attitude towards life. You are
succeeding now in all that you do and you have all the abilities necessary for success. 

(Explain value judging and resisting.) Realize that unhappy relationships are caused
by value judging and resisting yourself and others. Love is a natural state of being and
you are naturally in a state of loving when you accept yourself and others totally and
unconditionally. Realize that you do not have to approve of anyone's actions,
behavior or appearance in order to willingly accept and love them. Our actions are
but the means we choose to satisfy our dominant needs to feel good. You feel warm
and loving towards yourself and others, despite any undesired actions, behavior or
appearance. 

SELF CONFIDENCE II

Realize that your number one responsibility is to fulfill you fundamental human need
to feel good mentally, physically and emotionally. Realize that you have the freedom
and the authority to do anything you feel necessary to satisfy this basic need. Realize
that you are in charge of your own life and well-being, for you benefit or suffer, feel
good or bad, according to the consequences of everything you think, say, do and feel.
You are in charge of your own life. Your number one responsibility is to fulfill your
fundamental need to feel good mentally, physically and emotionally. You do not
resist the reality of any unwanted circumstances and you accept the unwanted
realities in your life and willingly allow them to be. 

SELF CONFIDENCE / FEAR

You now become aware of the self confidence within you. You are self reliant, self
confident and filled with independence and determination. You have opened your
mind to the inner security that was laying dormant within you. You are transformed
... you are self confident. You think confidently, you talk confidently, and you project
an image of self confidence. You are independent and filled with inner security. You
are self confident internally and externally. You inner confidence has emerged. 

You are creating a new positive reality. You now experience all the warmth and joy
in life while detaching from the negativity. From this moment on you see the
positive side of everything that happens in your life. You see positive opportunities
in everything you experience. You positive thinking now results in a more positive
life. You experience a feeling of overall well-being and mental calm. You are at
peace with yourself, the world, and everyone in it. Each and every day you experience
more and more positive results of your positive thinking. 

Your self esteem is increasing. Your self confidence is increasing. You feel
enthusiastic about your life and look forward to the challenges. You now breathe life
with new optimism ... with new enthusiasm. A happy, self assured inner you has
emerged. You are a positive individual who sees the problems only as opportunities.
You are patient, calm and harmoniously centered at all times. 

You let go of all fear-based emotions such as blame, jealousy, guilt, anger and
possessiveness. These negative emotions are now part of your past and you use them
only as building blocks for a more positive future. You are independent and self
responsible and you fully realize that you are unlimited in you ability to create your
own reality. 

You keep your mind like calm water. You remain centered at all times; this means to
be physically relaxed, emotionally calm, mentally focused and alert. You are
confident and secure about everything. You maintain a calm mind and you think only
positive thoughts. You no longer worry about things you cannot change. You are
confident and secure, mentally at peace. 

SEXUAL MALE

In the future you will have more will power and greater self control. Also you will
feel an increase in your power of endurance to the extent that you will be able to
reach one or MORE satisfactory climaxes. In the future you will be satisfied with the
amount of time you spend in the sex act and you will be less concerned as to when
you have an ejaculation. 

(Regress back to a time when all was well and he did good.) You will have the same
sexual power in the future as you had then. In the future you will have more will
power and greater self control. Also you will feel an increase in your power of
endurance to the extent that you will be able to reach one or MORE satisfactory
climaxes. In the future you will be satisfied with the amount of time you spend in the
sex act and you will be less concerned as to when you have an ejaculation. 

Whenever you consider having sex, you find you are calm and relaxed and begin to
anticipate both the pleasure you will give and also the pleasure you will receive. You
truly enjoy giving pleasure and as you concentrate on that you make your partner feel
happy and you will succeed in giving and receiving the pleasure and enjoyment in the
future that you had in the past when all was at its peak for you. 

You will notice the improvement no matter how slight it will be at first and you will
be well pleased with the amount of improvement that you will notice. Your
improvement will be progressive and so you will look forward to each new sexual
experience with positive anticipation and wonder just how much better it will be next
time. Your improvement will be lasting and permanent and you will be well pleased
with yourself and your progress. 

SMOKING ADDENDUM

The following recommendations should be included in the post hypnotic interview. 
Cut down coffee and liquor ... that will be help you control the urges for nicotine. In
four days, all the nicotine will be gone from your body. (leave your system). Every
time you urinate, the nicotine and poisons will be leaving your system, drink water to
move poisons out. As the nicotines are leaving your systems, so is the calcium, so for
the first four days chew calcium rich TUMS or ROLAIDS. As the nicotines leave the
system, the sugar also drops, this causes the craving for nicotine. For each of the first
four days, eat three oranges or pink grapefruits per day. Because smoking is a nervous
habit, the nicotine settles the nerves, you may feel stress. Take vitamin B-Complex
for stress. Continue these for ten days. On the fourth day, you'll feel great because
the nicotine is gone from system. On the tenth day, you'll feel real good because all
your bloods cells will be oxygenated. All the residual smoke, nicotine and poisons
will be cleansed from your body. 

STOP SMOKING SESSION I

First of all, you are aware that we have already completely uncovered the underlying
cause of your compulsive smoking habit. You no longer feel the compulsion to
smoke at all. We are now only dealing with a habit pattern -- the hollow shell of
your original problem. 

Habits can be broken as easily as they are created. One of the ways to do that is to
make you aware of your smoking. From the very moment you reach for a cigarette,
you will be extremely conscious of what you are doing. If you light it and start to
smoke, you will be unusually aware of every moment of the time you are involved in
smoking that cigarette. The main reason you have continued to smoke is because you
are doing it unconsciously -- you have not really been aware of what you were
doing. But now you are. Each time you reach for a cigarette, you attention will be
drawn to that cigarette and focus uncomfortably upon it. When you are aware of
what you're doing, you are no longer in the unconscious habit. You already have no
need to continue smoking; you know that. So this will be easy and effortless. There
will be none of the struggle and fight with will power you may have experienced in
the past, no guilt of smoking as you do it. The awareness may make you annoyed with
smoking, disgusted and bored by it. You may even want to put the cigarette out when
you are only half-finished. 

It will not taste as good as it used to. You simply will not wish to continue. You have
already made up your mind. You have found the reason you smoke and you have
already made up your mind -- a final decision to stop smoking altogether. You have
already made up you mind to stop smoking altogether. You have already made up you
mind that you are going to stop NOW, not tomorrow, not the next day, but you are
going to stop THIS VERY MOMENT. You have made a final decision to stop
smoking. 

You WANT to stop smoking as of this very minute. You know why you want to.
Think about that reason. Form it clearly in your mind. Think about the problems
smoking causes. You have no need of smoking because of that, you are giving it up.
You're giving up coughing; you're giving up pain; you're giving up trouble; you're
giving up all the things you don't want, including smoking. You are giving up the
things you don't want in order to get the things you do want: relaxation, rest, a
feeling of security, happiness. 

YOU WILL FORGET ABOUT CIGARETTES ALTOGETHER. You have no need
to buy them because you have no need to smoke them. Consequently, your purchase
of cigarettes will immediately cease. And should you perhaps accept a cigarette
without realizing it, you will immediately be aware of it and will be overcome with
an uncontrollable compulsion to break it in two as soon as it enters you hand.
Whenever you touch the cigarette, you will instantly break it in two. It will remind
you of all the bad things you're giving up and all the good things that are in store for
you. You realize how much greater the proportion of good you are receiving is than
the portion of bad you are giving up. It will seem as small thing to you to give up
smoking, considering the tremendous benefits you will be receiving for giving it up.
IT IS EASY TO GIVE UP THINGS YOU DON'T LIKE. AND YOU DON'T LIKE
TO SMOKE. 

You will begin to feel proud of yourself, very proud. You will find it easier to
conquer other habits. It makes it easier for you to conquer life in general. It fills your
ego, making you self-confident, self-assured and self-reliant. 

You will keep a record in the beginning of your progress. Every single day, you will
remind yourself how successful you have been as an abstainer. How many days, how
many weeks and months you have been an abstainer and how wonderful it has made
you feel. You will continue to keep this record and it will encourage you and fortify
you as a tangible record of your success. And soon you will no longer feel the need to
keep such a record because you will know that you are an abstainer permanently. That
this record will go on unblemished for the rest of your life. 

You already know that no habit is stronger than the power of you mind which created
it in the first place. It is now you versus tobacco. You will easily win for you are
stronger. Your have patience, great patience now, perseverance, great perseverance,
calm and relaxed determination. Nothing can shake it. You will go on patiently day
to day. Every day will be a success. You will become accustomed to success. And
soon that feeling of success will be far more important to you than any habit could
possible be. 

STOP SMOKING SESSION II

You pay attention only to the sound of my voice. Sink further and further down,
deeper and deeper. Sleep deeply. Sleep. Deeper and deeper. As you listen to the sound
of my voice, your mind concentrates on it. It is easy for your mind to concentrate,
concentrating to a pinpoint. You find you are going to be able to concentrate on your
work and concentrate on your play and concentrate at all times. It makes you feel
good and feel relaxed. For when your mind is concentrating on other things, there is
no room for the smoking to even get into it. When you become fatigued or tired, you
can lie down for a couple of minutes, go into a state of self-hypnosis and relax
completely. Because concentrating the mind does not make it tired. The mind
becomes fatigued out of confusion, not concentration. 

Smoking has been a form of self-punishment, a form of feeding yourself poison, that
you neither like nor need. You only feel a need for this when you make yourself tired
and tell yourself that consciously you are on your way to death. That is not true.
Tiredness is merely a sign that you need to rejuvenate yourself, which can be done
easily with self-hypnosis. Smoking is more than a crutch - it is a hindrance, a block
in your path. We are removing that block. We are wiping it out completely so you
can go on to success as if it had been erased. The wall is no longer there. You walk
straight ahead and wipe out smoking completely so that it has no place in your life. 

It is not a substitute for anything - not for death or self-punishment or anything else.
It is a nonentity. It does not exist for you. It has been wiped out by your concentrating
on other beneficial things. As you think of your goals, your work, your play, the
entire idea of smoking never appears. It vanishes completely. You have no use for it.
It is a good substitute for nothing. Indeed, you are surprised and amazed at how easily
it is for you to concentrate your mind on everything you want to. Your goals, your
aspirations, your desires, your needs, your work and relaxation. 

Smoking is gone from your thoughts. And with it is gone all the poison, all the
negative suggestion, all the self-punishment and degradation and all the problems. A
cycle for good has been established. The more you hear these words, the more they
will take effect on you, for even as you hear them in the deepest part of you
subconscious mind, these suggestions take effect, complete and thorough effect in
every way -- sealing themselves into the deepest part of your subconscious mind,and
becoming an integral part of each and every cell of your brain and body, making you
more healthy and more satisfied in every way and feeling good all over.Now I want
you to take five very deep breaths. I want you to breathe in the very deepest, cleanest,
most wonderful air into you lungs. There's one. Now let it out. Feel how wonderful
that feels. There's no smoke there. Nothing to do with it. Two -- take a deep breath
-- all the way in, all the way out. Feel the air reach the very distant recesses of every
single part of your lungs. Three - and as this happens, you gain a tremendous,
tremendous desire - breathe way out - tremendous desire, what wonderful clean,
fresh air. Four - and the wonderful feeling it gives you as you breathe in all the way
in and all the way out. And on this last breath that is coming in, you realize how
much you enjoy breathing clear, pure, fresh air without smoke or irritants of any
kind. It's wonderful to you. All the way in, all the way in, all the way in, further and
further and further - the deepest breath you have ever taken in your life, all the way
down, that develops in you a desire for deep, comfortable, wonderful breathing such
as accomplished in healthy, comfortable, satisfied people like yourself. As you
continue in this way, continue to breathe comfortably, feel good, concentrate your
mind on those things that need concentrating on. Every day, in every way, you are
getting better and better and better. 

Now I'm going to give you a short period of silence during which each one of those
suggestions will take complete and thorough effect upon you, sealing themselves into
the deepest part of your subconscious mind and reinforcing themselves over and over
again. All these suggestions and any other suggestions I have given you, are now
reinforced. Again and again and again. That time begins now... 

STOP SMOKING SESSION III

Now as you sink deeper and deeper into relaxation, further and further down, all the
sounds fade away in the distance and you pay attention only to the sound of my voice,
listening carefully to the sound of my voice, for all the suggestions that I am going to
give you take complete and thorough effect upon you - mind, body and spirit. 

You know that nicotine is poison. It is one of the most powerful poisons on the face
of the earth. A very tiny amount would be enough to kill a horse, let alone a human
being. Fortunately, nicotine is not too concentrated in cigarettes, but it is present and
you are taking poison every time you suck on a cigarette. 

In the past, you may have told yourself, "If I didn't smoke, I'd do something else. I
might drink or take pills or overeat. I would poison myself in some other way." In
other words, you are claiming that "if I didn't take this poison, I'd take another
poison." This is the lesser of two poisons. Now that is ridiculous! How ridiculous can
you get? Can you believe you have tried to put such a ridiculous idea over on
yourself? "If I didn't take one poison, I'd take another"? It's ridiculous - a ridiculous
idea. For the first time in you life, you can see how ridiculous that concept is. YOU
DON'T NEED ANY POISON. That attitude implied that you did - you needed some
kind of poison. You need poison like you need a hole in the head. 

>From now on you are going to do positive things. There are numerous positive things
you can do and positive things you can eat and drink. You can eat good fruits and
vegetables. You can exercise moderately and comfortably. You can take brisk walks.
You can relax and enjoy yourself. There are literally millions of things you can do to
maintain a wonderfully relaxed, peaceful, calm, tranquil existence without taking any
poison at all. Poison is good for some things - things we want to kill off. Like rats. 

Unless you think of yourself as a scroungy, bothersome rat, you don't need poison.
And you don't think of yourself that way. You know now that you are a wonderful,
valuable human being, entire the opposite of rats. You don't need to punish yourself.
You are not guilty of anything. You are not guilty of anything at all. Now those ideas
are gone and finished once and for all. You don't have to think about them ever again.
And just as those ideas are gone, the ridiculous ideas you have had whole thing has
just wiped out. You can see it go. Drifting away from you once and for all. 

You don't need any poisons. Cigarettes, pills, liquor - nothing. What you do need is
relaxation, comfortable, cool relaxation. During this time, you are glad to sink deeper
and deeper. You feel more and more comfortable in every way and you completely
release the desire for tobacco in every and any form. It is all gone - drifted away. 

Now sleep deeper and deeper. Relaxed. Deeper and deeper. The need for smoking has
disappeared. You will be surprised and amazed to find out that you no longer require
tobacco in any form. You do not need any type of poison in its place. You are through
with poison. You literally turn you back on it and it drifts away from you. Now sink
deeper and deeper into relaxation. All of these suggestions take complete and
thorough effect upon you, mind, body and spirit, as you go deeper and deeper and
deeper. Nothing disturbs you. A period of silence now begins as these suggestions
take deep and profound effect. 

STOP SMOKING SESSION IV

Now as you sink deeper and deeper relaxed, all other sounds fade away in the
distance. You pay no attention to any other sound but the sound of my voice and you
sink deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper. 

You are surprised and amazed at how well you have done. Not only can you stop
smoking, but there are no ill effects from stopping smoking. You have made
wonderful progress. Not only have you stopped smoking, but the urge is gone. You
couldn't care less about it any more. There is no point debating about it. You don't
smoke. It's completely set and finished: you are through with smoking. You hate
cigarettes. You can't stand them. If fact, you stubbornly refuse to smoke. You
stubbornly refuse to smoke no matter what urges, no matter what ideas, no matter
what things may happen, what feelings come up, what nervousness or anything else
that happens to you. You deal with all your problems effectively whatever they are
and in no case do any of these cause you to smoke. Not any more. There is no
situation that could possibly arise in you life that could break down your stubborn
refusal to smoke. 

How refreshing it is to be so stubbornly strong. This is a good kind of stubbornness
and you stubbornly refuse to smoke. You won't even listen to the other side. You are
through arguing. You've realized that you don't like to smoke, so why would you
possibly every consider doing it? You hate it. Because that's the way it is, it is set
that you are through with smoking. It is set that you are through with cigarettes. It's
set that you are through with tobacco in any form. You hate it. It's filthy. It nauseates
you. It's dirty. It's expensive. You don't need it and, furthermore, you don't like it.
No one can tempt you. No one can change you. You are far happier without smoking.
No matter what people may imply, this is not an endurance contest for you. It's easy.
It's a simple matter of not doing something you don't want to do any way. What
could be hard about that? 

It makes you feel better and enjoy life more. The time you used to spend poisoning
yourself with tobacco is now more interesting. Your lungs are healthier. The air is
cleaner and your body is more vigorous and full of life because you have gotten rid of
all that poison. Nothing can ever make you take it back. You are too stubborn. You
refuse. You are through with poison. You hate it, you'll never do it again. 

All these suggestions seal themselves now in the deepest part of you subconscious
mind and take complete and thorough effect upon you mind, body and spirit, making
you feel relaxed, clear-headed, vivacious, vigorous, completely restored in every
way. Full of pep and vitality. I am going to give you a few moments of silence again
and during those moments, these ideas are reinforced over and over again. 

That period of silence begins now. 

STOP SMOKING SESSION V

Now as you sink deeper and deeper, relaxed, peaceful, all your attention is focused on
the sound of my voice. You pay attention only to that sound. 

Every person who has smoked a cigarette has connected smoking with other
activities. Some people feel that they have to smoke when they first open their eyes
in the morning or when they go to bed at night or while watching TV or in some
other situations. They associate smoking with some activity and that triggers a
mechanism which causes one to reach for a cigarette. 

We are breaking all of those mechanisms now. We destroy every last one of them
RIGHT NOW. From this moment on, whatever those activities were, smoking will
suddenly seem outrageously out of place in connection with them - particularly with
those activities. The idea of smoking while doing that is revolting to you. You can
not imagine doing it. 

Visualize yourself eating a wonderful dinner, then killing the whole taste with a
cigarette. It's a terrible idea. Nothing could be worse than that. The one thing you
don't want with those activities is a cigarette. Smoking to you is not only
undesirable, it's stupid. And you don't like it. Whatever special situations are
connected with cigarettes in your past are now completely revised. There is no
situation that calls for a cigarette. Those activities have nothing to do with smoking
and smoking in them is distinctly out of place. When you are working, cigarettes get
in your way and take time and concentration from your work. When you are relaxing,
they keep you from relaxing. And you are now relaxed completely, going deeper and
deeper down, letting these suggestions take complete and thorough effect. 

>From this moment on, there is no activity in you life that goes with smoking. In fact,
all activities, whether it's walking, sleeping, work or play - all go better without
smoking. They go better with lungs full of fresh air. They go better with a good
blood supply. Everything goes better without cigarettes. 

All of those old connections are broken and new connections are made. And it is
going to be very easy for you. Now you go deeper and deeper. Relaxed. Deeper and
deeper and deeper. All of the sounds fade away into the distance. You listen only to
the sound of my voice ... and sink farther and farther down. Deeper and deeper
relaxed ... deeper and deeper relaxed ... deeper and deeper relaxed ... listening to the
sound of my voice and going way, way down. Each and every suggestion that I have
given you is reinforced ten times over during the period of silence which now begins.

STUDY HABITS

You set your study habits as a child and have not done anything about the method by
which you study since then. You now desire to change the method by which you
study. Setting a new habit is very easy to do and you are now setting a new habit of
study. 

You now find it very easy to concentrate on what you are studying. You now find
your studies interesting. They are no longer boring. If for any reason you become
bored you do not lose your ability to concentrate and retain what you learn. 

You no longer COMA read, (seeing but not absorbing), now you see, retain and recall
all that you study. You no longer block out segments of what you study. You now
have the discipline to set aside time for your studies. It is very easy for you to
structure you study time for the most effectiveness. 

You feel great because you no longer procrastinate your studies. You enjoy your free
time much more now that your studies are finished before you take your leisure time.

WEIGHT REDUCTION SCRIPT

This script may be recorded for a subjects use at night. It may be very helpful to have
the subject engage in visualization as well. 

I desire to become strong and slender. 

I am dissatisfied with my weight as it now stands. 

I want to become more slender. Because I want to become more slender, my appetite
is now easily satisfied with a much smaller quantity of food that I have become
accustomed to eating, 

I know that my body needs protein for strength, so I enjoy eating a small quantity of
lean meat. 

I enjoy a single slice of dark, coarse bread. 

I enjoy eating green, leafy vegetables. 

I enjoy eating all the body building foods which give me strength and a proper
balance of minerals and vitamins. 

My body already has in storage an abundance of fat. 

My body has no need for additional fat. 

My body is now ready to use this fat that I have stored up. 

As this fat is used, I feel the way I want to feel; strong, energetic and vigorous. 

Because my body has no need for fat now, I have no appetite for fats, sweets and
starches. 

I dislike the fat in meat, I have no desire for butter or cream. 

I dislike ice cream, I dislike candy and pie, I have no desire for cake.

My tastes correspond to the real needs of my body. 

Food substances that are not needed are actually unpleasant to me. 

I am now finding a new pleasure in eating the foods that my body needs. 

I eat slowly. 

I take small bites, 

I relish each bite as I chew it.

I am completely satisfied with the quantity of food that contains about (specific
count) calories. 

I now weight (Specify current weight) pounds. 

I wish to weight (Desired ending weight) because at that weight I will feel very much
better and be much more attractive.

5) pounds per week. 

In ten weeks I am going to weight (10 weeks times lb. per week) pound s less. 

In ten weeks I am going to weight (Starting weight - 10 week loss) pounds.

because I want to be more attractive. 

I do this because I want to feel stronger and more vigorous. 

I do this because I want to be healthy. 

I do this because I want to be well. 

I desire to be strong, vigorous and healthy. That desire is so great that it easily and
unconsciously controls my appetite; and I automatically eat only the foods that my
body needs in the quantities that my body requires. 

Once the weight loss has started, the following suggestions can be added to the script.

I am now eating the foods that my body needs. 

I am eating only the food that my body needs. 

I am eating only 1000 calories a day, and I am enjoying every single byte that I take.

Soon my figure will be more suited to my height and my bone structure. 

WEIGHT REDUCTION SESSION I

You have begun a positive approach to obtain the slim, healthy, attractive body which
you desire. I am going to give you some suggestions that will make this a permanent
change in your living. These suggestions are going to take complete and thorough
effect upon the deepest part of your subconscious mind, sealing themselves in the
deepest part of your subconscious mind, so they will remain there forever, and
become a permanent part of every cell of your brain and body. You are going to be
surprised and amazed just how effective these suggestions are going to be and how
much they will become a part of your everyday life, giving you a brand new pattern,
brand new thoughts, a brand new method of action, to make you an effective and
successful person. 

You will make use of a brand new method that you have never used before. You have
begun the first positive approach for obtaining a healthy, attractive body which you
desire. You have chosen hypnosis as a positive means to attain this goal, because
hypnosis is a great aid in permanently changing your emotional reactions to food and
eating. You realize that hypnosis is a new positive approach -- a new positive
approach to obtain what you desire. 

For the first time in your life you will really initiate a good positive approach toward
food and eating. As you initiate this good, positive attitude toward food, enjoy food,
like food, eat food. You will create a permanent positive change in your eating
habits. From now on, you will prove to your own satisfaction that eating all you
physiologically need will entirely satisfy you; just like drinking all the water you
need. Instead of trying to kill your appetite, treating it as an enemy, you are going to
work within the framework of your inborn normal reflexes, making a friend of your
appetite, paying attention to it; for this is a good thing. Slim people have appetites.
They pay attention to them. Attractive people have appetites. They pay attention to
them. Hypnosis makes a friend of your appetite, rather than an enemy. 

In the past, you've been paying attention only to half the signal from your appetite.
Namely, the signal that says, "Eat. I'm hungry." But now you are making a friend of
your appetite. You listen to all of what your friend's advice is. When it says "I'm
hungry," you eat. When the hunger feeling first disappears, and your appetite says,
"I'm satisfied," you stop. You stop long before you're full, because once you have
this full sensation, it means that you have grossly overeaten. You should never want
to feel full again. 

You see you haven't really been paying attention to your appetite at all because your
eating has been driven by emotions rather than hunger. It is always proper to eat
when your appetite says,"I'm hungry." But you've been eating when you've not been
hungry. You've been eating out of habit when your body had no physiological need
for food. You've been eating to satisfy psychological, emotional cravings. You
haven't paid attention to your appetite when it says "I'm done. I'm satisfied. Stop
eating." You haven't paid attention to it either. Your appetite doesn't need killing
off. On the contrary, it needs reinforcing. Hypnosis helps you make a friend of your
appetite. Pay attention to the advice of your new friend. Tune in on your body
sensations. If you eat too much against the advice of your new friend, you'll violate
your normal reflexes. 

It's important that you should eat all you physiologically need to replace your energy
stores for immediate use and to store your body's sugar. You must immediately ban
any and all plans that you have for dieting. You will do so. Otherwise, you bring into
play an old instinct for self-preservation. This can spoil all of the positive results
that you wish to gain from hypnosis. It is important that you develop the habit now;
that you're always going to eat all that you need. Under hypnosis, you can reinforce
the normal feedback mechanisms, the checks and balances that tell you when you
need food and when your appetite is satisfied. 

However strong this hypnosis may be, it cannot overcome basic instincts for survival.
A most strong instinct is self-preservation. Surprisingly, your great concern about
being overweight leads to sporadic dieting. This in turn suggests starvation.
Starvation, in turn, demands defense. It brings out the instinct of self-survival. This
instinct is responsible for maintaining your excess weight. Slim people eat all they
want. 

Slim people do well. Slim, attractive people say, "I eat all I want and I don't gain an
ounce." 

Visualize yourself as this slim, attractive person; the slim, healthy, attractive person
that you soon will be. You soon will be saying the very same thing. As you begin to
talk and act like a slim, healthy, attractive person, you will soon become one.
Overweight is primarily not a dietary problem, but an emotional problem. You must
resolve right now to give up dieting forever. You will form a habit pattern to eat all
you need when your body needs it. Paying attention to your appetite, trusting your
own reflexes, reinforcing the sensation, reflexes and feed-back patterns. This is true
even though you may lose very slowly at first. The excess fat will be burned away in
due time. You are going to be slim, healthy, and attractive. You will feel wonderful
in every way. The word diet and dieting will be removed from your mind and all the
plans you may have had for dieting will be removed from your mind thoroughly.
Dieting makes you think of growing hungry and giving up food, which in turn starts
the anxiety about starvation which brings forth the instinct of self-preservation. So
you are through with dieting; through with dieting forever. 

Through hypnosis you will restore normal reflexes that will keep you satisfied and
bring into play that wonderful feeling of well-being. The word diet is a negative
word; it threatens you with denial of food and death. Hypnosis is a positive word; it
makes you relax, comfortable and alive. Diets fail; hypnosis succeeds. Diet brings
about starvation which leads to overeating and obesity. Hypnosis brings about
satisfaction which leads to relaxation and brings about a slim, healthy, attractive
body, a relaxed mind and a satiated spirit. The old urge to diet is now completely
removed from your mind for now you realize that the real answer is in restoring
normal reflexes. You will concentrate on it, obeying every suggestion I give you, for
hypnosis is a positive approach. Hypnotic suggestions which you receive will rapidly
bring about a change which is necessary to insure a permanently slim, healthy,
attractive body, which you so desire. 

EACH TIME YOU ARE TEMPTED TO EAT OR DRINK ANYTHING THAT
YOU KNOW IS WRONG FOR YOU, YOU WILL SAY "NO" AND STICK BY
IT, BECAUSE THE REWARDS OF BECOMING SLIMMER ARE MORE
IMPORTANT TO YOU THAN EATING THE WRONG FOODS. 

THE REWARDS OF BEING SLENDER, MORE DESIRABLE, SEXIER, ARE
MORE IMPORTANT TO YOU THAN EATING FOODS THAT YOU KNOW
ARE WRONG FOR YOU. 

WEIGHT REDUCTION SESSION II

As you go deeper and deeper into relaxation, even deeper and deeper down with every
breath you exhale, all the sounds fade away in the distance. You will pay attention
only to the sound of my voice, listening carefully to the suggestions that I am about
to give you. One thing is very important for you: you are not only going to lose
weight, but are permanently going to keep it off. This program is designed so that
you will permanently lose all your fat, and become a lean, alert and vigorous person.
You will lose all your extra weight and keep it off, easily and comfortably. That
means that you are going to be completely reconditioned. You will be a new person,
in a new lean form, with new eating habits. Not only will you have these new eating
habits, but you will be content and happy with yourself and with these new heating
habits. You are going to enjoy life, eating the way nature intended, eating only when
you have physiological needs for food and no other time; not only now, but for the
rest of your life. 

In the past, you were eating more than your body needed for its energy requirements,
so that you stored this extra energy as inert fat. Now in order to lose weight and
reduce this inert fat, you burn it up as you meet your daily requirements for energy.
You eat less than you burn each day. Later, when you are lean, you will eat only that
amount that you need for your physiological needs each day. But for right now, you
are developing habits to eat less than you're using. We are not giving you a measured
diet, for that amount will vary from day to day and depend greatly on your activities.
You will eat less than you need for the storage will make up the difference. This
restriction will cause you no trouble or inconvenience for the fat stores of inert fat
will be burned and you will lose weight. You are going to eat a great deal less than
you used to eat in the past, but it will be enough to satisfy you. You will eat less, and
you will burn the extra fat. You will turn this inert fat into energy. From now on,
you are going to form an eating pattern; a pattern that will be almost a compulsion. 

Fat by its very nature contains an extremely big amount of stored energy. So, if you
burn a little of it each day, you will lose only a little weight each day. Nature
designed the fat stores to last a long time so the weight loss must be gradual, but it
needs to be consistent. It matters not how long it takes to regain lean proportions, for
you will surely get there and permanently stay there, as long as you permanently
rearrange your thoughts about eating and your emotions about food. The important
thing is that you have changed your habits forever. A loss of one to four pounds a
week is ideal. When your excess weight is off, it is off for good. You're a new
person, about to emerge from a cocoon padded with fat. Be happy with your new
form. Emerge as a new person with thoroughly changed ideas, thoroughly changed
image of yourself. 

Relax and let all of these suggestions sink into the deepest part of your mind's eye as
an image. This image is of good and wonderful food. Food you like. There is plenty
of it all around you. There always will be plenty of it. For you, there will always be
enough food. You will never have to worry about starving. For you there is plenty of
food everywhere. With all this food readily available, you will never need to store
any more food inside your body. There is plenty of food. There is plenty of the right
kinds of food, all the kinds and varieties that your body needs when it needs it. From
now on you will eat only the very things your body needs, one day at a time. You are
through with storing pads and rolls of fat. For you to store fat is just as unnecessary
as for you to learn to shoe horses or make soap for the family. Fat burdens your heart
and organ system. Fat keeps you unhealthy. Fat ruins and shortens your life. There is
plenty of food all around you. You never again need to store food in your body that is
more than you body needs. 

There is in your central brain a small area which regulates the biochemistry of your
body and it controls the amount of fat you store in your body. This control is located
in the hypothalmic area of the brain. Your subconscious mind, through the
hypothalmus, controls your weight by changing the body's chemistry. Hypnosis can
influence your subconscious mind to alter the control of both your appetite and
storage of food in the form of fat. 

Now while under the influence of hypnosis, I am giving you the suggestion that you
will change your body's chemistry so that you can break up these large storage houses
of fat and prevent the recurrence of any new and unneeded storages of fat, ugly fat.
Fat that has been putting an extra burden and overload on the body's machinery.
Break up and eliminate forever the unneeded fat stores. Change fat to energy and
burn it up. Also, get rid of it by excreting it. Get rid of it through the bowels. Get rid
of it through the urine. Get rid of it in every way possible. It mobilizes quite readily
and you can see the fat melting away as you use it and excrete it. The globules of fat
storage are leaving the normal cells and being carried away. The fat is being burned
up and excreted. 

You will now use this stored fat to supply energy. This is extra energy to make you
more vigorous. As you are eliminating the excess, you will eat far less than you need
each day for the extra calories are coming from the food you ate yesterday and last
year. You eat nothing to replace these stores. Nothing and no one can force you to eat
so much that you replace this ugly fat. For you will never need to store fat again. You
don't want this fat to ever be replaced. These stores are gone forever. They were
burdensome and injurious to you. You need to get rid of them, just as an overloaded
ship needs to get rid of excess cargo. No longer will you need to eat more food for
this storage. You will only eat small amounts until you have used all of this stored
energy and all those ugly store houses of fat are gone. From this moment on, you are
going to eat less, but move more and more lively and be more and more active, for
you feel better than you have ever felt before. You lose the desire for all but a small
amount of food until your weight has come down to a lean size you want. Then you
will eat sensibly and correctly the rest of your life. 

After you change your chemistry, you have changed your whole body and your whole
feeling to that of a wonderful sense of well-being. You will eat sensibly, get plenty
of exercise, drink adequate liquids to always make you feel healthy, lean, trim and
desirable. 

YOU ARE LOSING WEIGHT STEADILY EVERY DAY. YOU ARE SLIM AND
SHAPELY. THE EXCESS WEIGHT IS MELTING OFF YOU, JUST MELTING
AWAY AND DISAPPEARING. YOU HAVE A STRONGER FEELING EVERY
DAY THAT YOU ARE IN COMPLETE CONTROL OF YOUR EATING
HABITS. YOU PICTURE YOURSELF THE WAY YOU ARE GOING TO BE
SOON -- SLIM AND SHAPELY AND SEXY. 

Now relax and let all these suggestions take complete and thorough effect upon you
-- mind, body, and spirit -- as your subconscious mind corrects your hypothalmus
to change your body's chemistry. Let the monitor of your subconscious mind
influence the hypothalmus to make this favorable body change. Let your appetite
control center be safely reduced so that excess storage of fat will be utilized by
excretion and burning of stored energy. Eliminate all that extra harmful fat. 

WEIGHT REDUCTION SESSION III

Although sometimes we are quite fearful of change or something new, we are well
aware there is no chance for improvement unless there is change. If we have had
difficulty in some area, we must change the old patterns. So today, I am suggesting
that we do something entirely different from what we usually do. Something that
may be quite new to you. Although it is likely that you have done it sometime in the
past. Today I am proposing that you let yourself see yourself in perspective. See
yourself as others might see you or as you might be seen in history. 

When you are away from yourself, even for a few moments, you begin to see
yourself in an entirely different light. Temporarily, if you separate yourself in time
as well as in physical distance, you can see yourself not only as you are at the
moment, but as you were yesterday or even far back in childhood. It is quite possible
for you to see yourself proceeding through all the stages of growing to the present
time, and even projecting your view of yourself into the future. You are capable of
doing this. It is a safe procedure. It is possible because your subconscious mind
calculates time and distance differently from the subconscious mind. In the conscious
mind, everything is very concrete. The minutes progress in orderly fashion to form
hours and days, weeks and years. The subconscious mind works very differently. You
live in the present, but if you are suddenly, greatly stressed, you call forth
experiences from the past. Your defenses and reactions respond instead to the similar
stresses of last year or five years ago. 

In other words, in the subconscious mind, your frame of reference is entirely
different. You can be in the present, but if something provokes or excites you, in a
fraction of a second you can revert to childish or infantile behavior and relive an
incident with all the sound, fury and emotion you had the first time you experienced
it. In other words, in a fraction of a second you can span the years and relive an
incident as vividly as you did the first time. 

In exactly the same way, it is possible for you to see some of the future. See yourself
as you might be behaving a year or five years from now. Predicting the future is
possible because the attitudes you hold about yourself determine your behavior, the
friends you choose and situations you create. Even though you may not be able to fill
in the names of other people or the precise location, you can predict the kind of
situation you will place yourself into because of the attitudes you hold about
yourself.Time and place in the subconscious mind is only relative. Your attitude and
defenses remain almost unchangeable and they interact with the environment in very
much the same way throughout you life. 

You can quite easily project yourself temporarily outside of your body as if you were
a third person and look back at yourself and your surroundings freed of the usual
physical limitations. It is very safe to project yourself in spirit out and beyond your
normal physical limitations so you can look back at yourself and understand exactly
where you are. This projection is entirely at your under your control. You will find it
quite easy to separate much of your spirit and intellect from your body so that you
can momentarily be free from your body limitations. From this vantage point, you
can see yourself in prospective from birth to present. You will become acutely aware
of the program you had to adopt to keep your physical body alive in a world that is so
threatening. You will be able to understand the family's interactions with you as you
have never before been able to understand. 

Best of all, from this detached, safe, vantage point, you can plainly see the defenses
that you needed when you were very small. You have now outgrown them just as you
have outgrown the need for nursing bottles and diapers. 

Projection experience is common to everyone who dreams, for dreams change all the
usual limitations of time and space. A good example is awakening abruptly from a
very sound sleep and being momentarily confused about where you are. You have had
the experience of looking in a three-way mirror in a clothing store and seeing
yourself in profile and back view and getting an entirely different perspective of
yourself. Another way to get a projection of yourself is to look into a mirror that
shows your reflection in another mirror. Then, by changing the angle slightly, you
can see one mirror reflecting in another in a whole row of mirrors, almost on to
eternity. Now to this picture, you add photographs of yourself in the same pose, but
each at a different age of your life. You line them up so that you see yourself in these
mirrors at all ages from infancy to the present time. Depending on the angle of the
mirrors, you can see yourself projected either into the past or into the future. 

Now picture yourself intellectually outside your own body with a clear view of your
whole life in perspective. You have in your possession all of the wisdom, all the
learning and all the understanding that you have ever gained. In this position, you're
now able to influence your own destiny by re-programming and upgrading your
attitude and defenses. You let yourself change wherever you see the need for growth
and maturity so all your reactions may come up to your expectations as you
relinquish your hang-ups. 

Hear yourself encouraging your whole being to accept yourself and approve of what
you do. Especially see yourself reinforcing the normal eating patterns, to eat only
when you are hungry, to see that your appetite is easily satisfied. Picture yourself
enjoying food immensely but only in quantities you need to fulfill normal
physiological requirements. See yourself overcoming the temptation to eat any extra
food. As you observe yourself it becomes easier and easier to pass up unneeded food
and drink. Especially note carefully how your need to seek approval from everyone
else is disappearing very quickly and progressively. More and more you are
approving of what you do. 

See yourself also using self-hypnosis as a very powerful and safe force for you. Its
effectiveness increases as you let part of yourself be projected beyond your usual
body limitations so that you can give yourself suggestions much more effectively as
if you were a third person. Again and again you are accepting the suggestion that you
eat only when you truly need food and that you are satisfied with basic nutrition. See
yourself being increasingly happy with your eating pattern and showing approval of
what you do.
