Hypnosis to Process and Extract Wisdom From the Past

0:00Welcome to the hidden test. The show that gives you inside access to cutting edge hypnosis with real clients facing genuine issues. Brought to you by the hypnotherapist Amanda Bycer Liberty's CEO's and even royalty, Adam Cox. These recordings took place live from Evansville in London's world famous Harley Street. Sir, get yourself comfortable and enjoy today's episode of The Hypnotist. Hi, it's Adam here and you're about to listen to a hypnosis session all about going back to the past to either process something that currently is still left unprocessed or to extract wisdom from the past. And this session I was working with a client that was going through quite a big life change. And they felt that there were people

1:05that were no longer around. They had deceased a long time ago. But that they wanted to do two things. One have full closure as to the past and secondly, see if they can get some wisdom from either personality traits of those individuals or what they represented, what meaning they gave to life so that they could utilize those resources in their future. And I think one of the best ways to honour anyone, particularly people that aren't around anymore, is to live your life in such a way that they had an impact on it. That's a real legacy. So if you have, let's say someone that isn't around anymore, that you want to really get some closure or interaction from them, this uses an imaginary beach where certain oceans collide and chairs like sofas or recliners that become a way, a portal to bring back

2:08whoever you want to be on those chairs to harness them. It's very ambiguous, very metaphorical deliberately so because it enables the hypnosis session to be like one of those old, choose your own adventure books. So each time you listen to the recording, you can be thinking of someone else that you want to be on those chairs to extract different values or different insights from them and you also get to see your future self five years from now. And just imagine what they would be saying if you lived in accordance with those values. And the broader theme here really is about not settling and living in accordance with values so that you can have true connection and true joy. So if any of these themes resonate, you might get some real value from this session. The one thing I will emphasize though is that it was created for an individual. And as such, some of the references and suggestions are going to be right for them

3:11and not quite right for you, so just ignore anything that isn't quite right. And if you like the idea of a bespoke session with me, rather than listening to the recordings I do for other people, I would encourage you to either check out my website, atomcocks.co.uk, or you can click the links in the show notes, and there you will be able to book a consultation call at a discounted rate to explore working with me. For now though, find a quiet comfortable place where you won't be distracted or disturbed, relax and enjoy the session. Take a deep breath in, and as you breathe in,

4:20breathe in, a slow, long, relaxing breath, and as you exhale, get permission to release, any tension, any stress, any worries, just allow it to leave your body in your outward breath. And as you breathe in, breathe out, I want you to connect with a sense of courage and pride. You've gone through so much, and many people in your situation would have resigned themselves to living as it's always been, and to make a change isn't easy.

5:26So as you breathe in, that feeling of pure relaxation, allow yourself a sense of self acceptance, and a feeling that your future self will be proud of decisions you've made and decisions you're making. Life is like reconnaissance, and you get to experience moments and conversations, and your emotions can either validate or invalidate how well those choices are interacting,

6:29with what your true values are, and when you feel good and free, connected and aligned, it's because you're living in accordance with what you value most. But if life gives you experiences and moments, where there is excessive frustration, apathy, anger, or resentment, this is not something to accept. It's a feedback loop to make a change, and as you think back over,

7:29more recent times, isn't that what's happened, and evaluation, that the life you value, and the life you experience, were not connected, they were out of sync. The easy thing to do, would be a form of self delusion, maybe things will get better, the more difficult thing to do, is to try and make them better, and if they can, your emotions let you know, this is what you want, why would you change it? But if you try and improve things, and you can't,

8:29and your emotions are letting you know, to continue, would be, to settle, the ball is then in your court, you have a decision to make, and a decision you did make, that means that discernment, and integrity, and value, and the quality that means, not settling, some people would call that, high standards, some people would call that, confidence, maybe you have a different word for not settling, you're already a living example, of not settling,

9:31that's what the decision was, but I wonder, if we can extract, even more value, I want you to think of a person, influential, that isn't here now, but still, resonates, at a particular frequency within you. Imagine your physical body, is feeling more relaxed, arms and legs heavier, breathing slower, eyelids, that's it, heavier, jaw looser, and as your physical body relaxes, your imagination can go on a journey,

10:32whereas our physical bodies are bound by the laws of physics, our imagination is unbound, the imagination can travel through space and time, no restrictions at all, and I want you to take every memory, every experience, all of the wisdom you've accumulated in your life up to now, and imagine floating back in time, and as you float back in time, whatever time you arrive at, that's the physical representation you take, whether you're in your 20s, or your teens, older or younger,

11:34when you arrive in that place, you will have all of your memories and experiences up to now, in a physical representation of what you look like then, so let's imagine floating over oceans, over forests, over deserts, over farmland and hills and nature, and I want you to imagine, floating all the way back to a beach, where two oceans collide, maybe there's a beach house nearby, but I want you to imagine, imagine that you've got this space just for you,

12:39and your imagination can even take something traumatic or undesirable, and make it meaningless, for example, I want you to think of someone unpleasant, picture their face, and then just move them from wherever they were to the beach, stare into their eyes and smile, and just imagine clicking your fingers, and they start turning into sand, they dissolve, and then you just see a pile of sand, and their clothes nearby,

13:41any one that has no value, or took value within your imagination can be as important as a grain of sand, but there are others that are really important, and I want you to imagine down on the beach, and when you imagine the most comfortable chairs, they could be sofas, they could be lounges, recliners, they could be thrones, whatever seeds you want on the beach, create them, just as quickly as someone unpleasant turns a sand you can create, the most comfortable, elegant furniture you desire,

14:45imagine hearing the sound of the waves, maybe you can even notice, notice the subtle difference, in the color of the different oceans, imagine the horizon, perhaps blue skies, and maybe it's approaching sunset, or maybe it's a sunny day, but these chairs, are magical in the sense that you can bring anyone you desire to sit on these chairs or sofas, and when you to bring forth, someone that was full of life,

15:45charisma, vivacious, cheeky and funny, bring forth someone that knew how to live life fully, and perhaps you can imagine embracing them with a hug or a smile. This is a time for things to be said, but were never said, and you can make this beach go forwards and backwards in time. You know what happens in the future, but the people you invite,

16:49onto these magical chairs, don't. And I want you to listen to what's happening in their world, with a new level of interest and connection, like they are the most important person in the world, because right here and right now, they are. There are some questions about goals and dreams, about what they would want for the future.

17:49I want you to share things that are happening in your world, with the people you are trying to take control, and just listen. Sometimes advice can be valuable and sometimes worthless. Your job is to pan for gold, to pick out the nuggets that are useful and beneficial for you.

18:50Perhaps you can bring forth someone that that person would never get to meet at that age. You can bring people from two different times together in a moment, perhaps even at a similar age, but from different generations. I want you to connect with what you notice, that it's possible to have love and connection without feeling,

20:00like a lack of control, and maybe that plants a seed of an idea deep in your mind. But what you thought was impossible or scary or difficult, may not be as scary or difficult as you thought. Sometimes all you need is an example. Irrefutable evidence that you can live life fully,

21:06without settling, that you can connect without losing control. And that, although disengagement and disconnection is always an option, what if it's more that if it reaches that point, it's a clue, an early warning system, to make a change, because in a way disengagement is settling in a way that tries to keep you safe. But you don't want to settle, and I wonder if you can adopt a belief,

22:14something that appeals to a higher value. I deserve to have love, I deserve to live life fully, I am worthy, and maybe settling implies a time where you lost a part of that belief. And if you were happy to settle, you would have settled. You didn't, because you don't,

23:15a person full of life, enthusiasm, the sense of freedom, has a resource that you can benefit from right now. Imagine that they put their hand on their chest, and a glowing ball of energy, starts being absorbed into their hand, they pass it to you, and you place it on your chest, and you're not taking anything from them, in the same way that when one candle lights another candle, it doesn't take anything from the original candle, it just activates something in the new one.

24:21And what if that quality, the quality you need most right now, is now activated? So let's go forwards in time, and we need to invite someone else, onto that chair. It is you, from five years in the future. And I think the future version of you, has some good news to share. About how things get easier, how you get more choices. And in particular,

25:22how one set of things are not mutually exclusive, that you can laugh deeply, without losing control. That's it, connect with that idea, and hear it from your future self, and maybe that future version of you is telling you, how worthy you are, how proud of your choices they are. And also, that life gets better, not a little bit better, but a lot better.

26:22Imagine hugging that future version of you, and let's bring in one final version of you, the current self, or is you from your past, or you from the future, and the you that is right now. And I want you to notice, that all are powerful, all are worthy. I want you to get a sense, what if you can take the standards of your past, the ability to love deeply, and what if you are able to take,

27:24the even more wisdom of your future, and condense it all into who you are right now. Feel the three of you merging into one, passion and discernment, standards and wisdom, worthiness, but also a willingness to connect deeply, all colliding into you now. We need to see one more person, there on that magic chair, sofa, couch, there on the beach, someone that you didn't get to say what you needed to say,

28:29so imagine from this resourceful state, saying it now. And when you've said what needs to be said, maybe there is something you need to hear, and if there is hear it, and if there isn't, sit with the silence, and then see the sun setting, thereover the oceans, with the sense that you have unlocked, the very resources most necessary for you now. So you imagine floating up out of that chair,

29:34seeing the oceans, the beach, the beach house, and flying and floating all the way back to the here and the now, seeing yourself, and then stepping into your body right now, taking all of these resources with you. New perspectives, new feelings of worthiness, but also a wonderful feeling of optimism that things do get better. So take a deep breath in three onos, and out three onos, and wiggle your fingers, and wiggle your toes, connect and calibrate into the here and the now, as I now count from one to ten, to awaken you,

30:36starting to count one, two, three, waking up, four, five, six, more alert, seven, eight. Open your eyes, open your eyes, nine, ten, wide awake, wide awake, wide awake.
