When clients enter my office for hypnosis, they often have a lot on their mind -- work, school, children, finances. It's no wonder they sometimes have a hard time focusing on hypnosis.
    I offer this visualization to bring them fully into the session.

    Thank you for coming to see me today. My office is a stress-free zone. When you came into this building, you left all your issues -- all your stress -- outside in the parking lot.
    Every breath you take, will relax you more and more. Every word I say, will take you down deeper and deeper.
    Imagine that you are on a beach of beautiful white sand. Lay down on your back. Close your eyes. Enjoy the warm sunshine. Feel the lake breeze. Hear the birds flying overhead. Smell the clean water. You are sooo relaxed.
    You have laid down close to the water's edge, and soon, you can feel the waves coming over your body. They always stop at your neck and shoulders, so your face is always open. You can always breathe deeply.
    Here comes the first wave. It comes all the way up to your shoulders, and then retreats back into the ocean.  As it retreats, it pulls out all stress, and carries it out into the water, far, far away. That feels so good.
    Here comes another wave, and the same thing happens. There is one wave every minute, and you lay on the beach for half an hour. That means 30 times, the waves washed over you, and carried away ALL your stress. You feel soooo good.

    Then, I start a formal induction. Some clients are already in never-never land, so I work to deepen the trance. Then, we begin working on the suggestions they want to hear, to make positive changes in their life.

    Did you enjoy that? I hope so. Why not call today to experience an in-person session, with special music, aromatherapy, and more.
    You can wake up now.
