IFocus Prep.
In this self-hypnosis session,
We're going to use a different way to sink into a deep relaxed state.
It's called the eye focus induction.
Many hypnotherapists use this as a perfectly safe way to let go.
It's a simple,
Hypnotic induction method that allows us to feel deeply relaxed.
This is done through focusing on a point in the distance.
Through allowing this concentration in this way,
It works with the parasympathetic system to allow you to relax very quickly.
You will need to keep your eyes open during the start of the eye focus.
I'll chat you through how to do this in a moment.
The eye induction is best done reclined or lying down with pillars propped under your head and shoulders.
After the eye induction is finished,
Feel free to slide down the bed or floor so you're lying completely flat.
Before we begin,
Just check in with your motivation for your practice,
Our reason why.
Take a moment to recall why you would like to have an out of body experience.
You can do that now.
Eye focus induction.
Now that you're nicely settled down.
I'd like you to look up and find a spot to fix your gaze.
A spot or a mark on the wall or ceiling.
Something that's not directly in front of you,
But slightly above your eye line.
Around a couple of meters or more away from you.
You need to be able to focus on this spot easily.
If you're lying down or propped with cushions,
Just be careful not to overstretch your neck in any way.
You're just looking very slightly above the eyeline,
So you shouldn't need to tilt your head back very much at all.
And from this moment on,
Just fix your gaze on that spot and that spot alone.
And as you do this,
You will find very quickly that your vision will get hazier and hazier as your eyes get tired and sleepy.
Until soon they will be closed.
But for now,
Keep them open.
And you will be drifting into a very pleasant,
Relaxed condition very soon.
But for now,
I'd just like you to keep your eyes focused on that point for a little while longer.
And while you listen to the sound of my voice,
Keep your eyes focused on that point.
And soon you will notice your eyes blinking.
Blinking is fine.
Blinking is good.
As you keep your eyes on that same spot.
Now I don't want you to close your eyes just yet.
Just keep them fixed on that point while you concentrate on my voice.
And your eyes may water a little bit or even get blurry.
And that's okay.
Remember.
Blinking is fine.
And these sensations are all just temporary.
And it is perfectly safe.
Just focus on this one spot as you listen to my voice.
And while you are doing this,
You will find your vision is getting hazier and hazier as your eyes get tired and sleepy.
Soon they will be closed and you will just drift into a very pleasant relaxation.
It doesn't matter if your mind wanders a bit,
You can always just bring it back to the sound of my voice.
All that matters now is your own relaxation.
So just be comfortable and when you find that it would be so nice to just let those eyes close all on their own,
You can stop trying to keep them open and close your eyes now.
See how comfortable your eyes are when you let them go and relax.
As you let your eyes close,
Notice how it feels so much more comfortable.
And as it does feel so much comfortable,
It is so easy to feel your whole body becoming lighter.
So very,
Very relaxed.
Settle yourself right down.
Sliding down that bed or floor.
Just letting yourself sink easily into that relaxation.
Just continue drifting now,
Deeper and deeper into that lovely relaxation.
You can settle yourself right down.
And when I talk to you again in a few moments,
Your body will be much more relaxed,
Less interested in noticing your bodily sensations and your mind fully aware.
So just rest quietly now,
Completely let go,
Until you hear my voice again in a few moments.
Body asleep.
Mind away.
Resting.
You you As you drift along,
You may even find that you start to feel as though you can float.
As you move gently into deeper relaxation.
You might like to visualize clouds.
We can use the clouds to help us move deeper into relaxation.
Now I invite you to imagine a series of clouds with numbers.
Don't worry if you can't get a clear picture,
Simply think,
Imagine or sense a cloud the best you can.
I'm going to count to 10,
And as I do,
Let's create each cloud with a number.
If you prefer,
You can just think of the numbers.
But the first cloud you see or sense has the number 10.
Sensing or seeing a cloud with number 10.
I'd now like you to imagine blowing this cloud away.
A nice,
Slow,
Gentle out-breath in any way that feels right for you.
Blowing this cloud away.
And as you do,
You drift deeper into a beautiful state of self-hypnosis,
Able to take yourself deeper.
Next,
Seeing a cloud with number 9.
The soft light of the cloud around you.
You blow that away gently into the distance.
And you watch Cloud 9 drift as you sink deeper.
You start to realise that it's kind of like you're on cloud nine yourself.
Watch cloud nine drift away.
8.
Blowing gently away,
Each out-breath relaxes you.
You relax more and more with each out breath.
And you watch Cloud 8.
Move away into the sky as you deepen your relaxation and sink into a lovely tender place,
A blissful state.
7 Watching Cloud 7 float off as you begin to feel more and more peaceful now.
Just feel that relaxation working its way through your body,
Settling yourself right down as Cloud 7 drifts away.
6.
We're in a beautiful place as we watch cloud 6 pass over the horizon and into the beyond.
Watch cloud 6 just drift off into the distance.
5.
Resting above the clouds,
Each gentle out-breath relaxes you.
You relax more and more with each breath you take.
For.
Deeper and deeper with Cloud 4.
You're feeling drowsier and drowsier.
A tired and sleepy body,
A wake mind.
3.
Doubling your relaxation now going even deeper.
Take a lovely long gentle out-breath as you hear 2.
The deeper you go,
The better you feel.
One all the way down now into total relaxation.
Cloud chair.
You're feeling deeply relaxed,
Serene and calm,
Drifting along.
You don't need to think or do anything.
Just let go and listen to my voice guiding and supporting you.
Just allow yourself to feel intuitively.
Trust yourself.
Maintaining that soft awareness now.
Allow your focus to dissolve away any sensations with the body.
Completely relaxed.
Completely supported.
Completely safe.
As you drift,
You might like to visualise or feel that you're being carried by an imaginary chair.
It's made of clouds,
Light and weightless.
Clouds carry their own form of energy.
Imagine this subtle energy very slowly surrounding you,
Like a soothing massage cloud chair,
Gently buzzing around you.
It holds your body as you lean back into it.
This energy coming from the cloud around you is a special energy that exists.
It's part of you,
Part of the universe,
Part of everything.
We just don't always feel it.
This universal energy is your gateway to the astral plane.
You might like to imagine this special cloud chair,
A bit like a massage chair,
Vibrating gently,
Subtly surrounding you as you lie weightless,
Drifting along.
Its gentle humming allows you to sink deeper.
Letting go into the energy of this wonderful chair,
Your astral throne.
Its light buzzing sensation may be subtle or strong.
Imagine what this sensation feels like to be surrounded by this special energy.
You might like to feel into this subtle universal energy as something that can pass through you and gently carry you into the astral plane.
Remember,
You can come back to the body whenever you wish.
This beautiful,
Subtle energy vibrates.
It is pure and it is healing.
It is you.
It is your guide and gateway to the astral plane.
Tiny little sacred particles like divine energy moving all around you.
And these vibrations sometimes appear of their own accord,
But also,
You can invite them in too.
Feeling your confidence rise.
Feeling open and welcoming to the vibrations.
I'd now like you to concentrate your awareness on your toes.
Imagine this gentle energy moving in through the toes.
Positive and vibrating,
Flowing in through your feet.
It might be very subtle.
See if you can sense into this energy right now.
And don't worry if you can't feel it entirely.
Imagine this invisible energy the best you can.
Now from your feet,
Feel your calves filling with this subtle vibration,
A soothing,
Tingling warmth.
Filling your calves completely now.
Imagine this feeling,
This pulsation in your cells.
And if you feel any vibrations or subtle buzzing,
Staying calm,
Surrendering,
Allowing the energy to flow.
Moving up into your knees,
You fill them with this energy.
Sense this real or imaginary vibration moving into your knees,
Flowing in and out the back and front and the side of your knees.
Travelling up,
Up into your thighs.
Now feel this smooth tingling warmth flowing freely about your legs.
Shimmering positive vibrating energy as we continue along.
And using your imagination to really feel into this subtle energy.
Tiny particles trembling within you,
Gently verberating.
Connect with this idea of vibrations the best you can.
Concentrate your awareness on your hands now.
Imagine that pure and subtle hum moving through your fingertips,
Allowing the vibration's subtle,
Real,
Or imaginary energy to do their thing,
To vibrate.
Allow the moment to unfold and welcome in anything that comes with it.
Notice your hands fill with this special energy,
Soaking completely in like tiny little waves of vibrations.
They begin to flow up,
Up into your forearms,
A soothing,
Tingling,
Positive pulsation.
Like little sparks of life buzzing all through your forearms and you welcome it into your being.
Moving up,
Up into your elbows,
Feel these tiny little dots of energy moving in and out of your elbows,
Over,
Under,
Around and inside,
Buzzing with a brilliant energy.
And moving to the top of your arms.
Filling your upper arms with this same pure energy.
Maybe you sense a tingling or trembling sensation that engulfs your upper arms.
Allow this to happen.
You feel content and accepting of these new sensations,
Knowing you are safe,
You are held and you are free to choose.
Remember,
If and when you feel any vibration or subtle buzzing,
Staying calm,
Surrender.
Allow them to take you wherever you need to go.
Connect with the idea of vibrations as best you can.
Through your arms and legs towards your hips,
Feel your pelvic area simmering with this relaxing hum or buzzing sensation.
Filling the entire pelvic area and then moving up,
Up into your stomach.
You welcome the vibrations ricocheting through you.
Whatever sensations you feel right now,
Allow them to be there.
And you might like to use a gentle intention or willpower to help yourself get a mild or subtle sense of this energy.
Imagine what that might be like.
Remember,
These sensations are safe.
They offer you the potential for astral travel.
So feel your stomach now surrounded with positive vibrating energy,
Gently weaving in and out and all around,
Tingling in your tummy.
And moving up from here into your chest,
Feel it fill with a soothing,
Shimmering pulsation all around your entire chest,
Knowing it's safe and pure.
Allow it to move all over the chest and up into the shoulders.
Each cell shaking a little like it's doing a tiny dance.
Vibrations moving up,
Up into your neck now.
Feel it fill with tiny moving healing molecules quivering around releasing any tension with their beautiful vibration.
This shifting up into the back of your head and also into your jaw.
You're increasingly starting to recognize that you possess the potential for astral travel.
Your jaw is softening,
Becoming deeply relaxed.
Now you feel the subtle energy moving up into your cheeks and forehead.
Accept it into your being.
Feel the divine energy moving all the way up to the crown of your head,
Filling the entire area with pure vibration.
Allow this vibrational energy to ooze into you,
Entering every part of your being,
Flowing throughout.
It surges into your system.
And it's totally safe.
So you decide to surrender to it.
Our innate ability to astral project unfolds as our heightened perception allows us to see,
Hear,
Feel or become aware in a different way.
Remaining calm,
Present,
Unattached to any outcome,
Follow the sensations,
Intuitively riding the vibrations out of the body like a beautiful wave.
If you wish,
You can allow this energy to turn into stronger vibrations.
You can choose to be where you are or turn up the dial and increase the intensity.
As and when you feel ready.
With a gentle intention.
In your own way.
Turn up the energy from small vibrations to big ones.
You may not need to do this,
But if you would like to let yourself feel bigger and deeper vibrations,
Positive energy is flowing in your body already.
So just let go to it.
Trust this divine energy to take you where you need to be with no expectations.
You might like to encourage the sensations to hold your whole being.
Allow this divine energy to expand and deepen even further,
Becoming more and more and more.
Allow yourself to follow the vibrations or whatever you can feel.
Be open to whatever happens next.
As you let go.
And go with it.
You're safe.
And you can come back anytime you wish.
And if you don't go anywhere,
That's okay too.
Be with whatever occurs.
Taking a few moments of silence from my voice.
And using your imagination,
Feel the vibrations freeing your body and mind of all restrictions,
Either mental and physical,
Getting itself nice and ready for the astral plane.
Any worry and any doubts simply dissolve away.
What would it feel like if that was happening right now?
Become aware of my voice as you calm and relax.
Your body and mind engulfed in positive pulsating energy.
And if you can't feel it.
That's okay.
Imagine it's happening as though it's already happening.
If you'd like to,
You can use a gentle intention to make the vibrational energy more and more become faster and faster,
Surrendering along the way.
Remember,
You're completely safe.
So let yourself.
Let go.
The vibrations have got you.
And that's a wonderful thing.
Maybe you notice a pulling or tugging sensation.
Or perhaps you feel a floaty lightness.
Or maybe you sense like you're going to shoot out of the body.
All are wonderful ways to astral project.
Follow your intuition and do what feels right for you.
Either encourage and increase the vibrations,
Or,
If you know an exit technique,
You might like to apply and practice it here.
Returning to the body.
Wherever you are,
Just listen to the sound of my voice.
It's time to let go of the vibrations and fully return to the physical body.
Knowing that you can return to wherever you've been at any time.
Let's let this state dissolve away and re-enter the physical world.
Gently become aware of any bodily sensations and any emotions you might be feeling right now.
And know that at all times you are secure and you are comfortable.
In a moment,
When I count up to five,
You'll find normal everyday sensations returning to your body.
You'll be wide awake,
Refreshed and relaxed,
Ready to get on with your day.
Now then,
Gently start to become aware of sensations in your body and feel into yourself.
Notice the bed beneath you.
The room around you.
And come back.
To the home of your body.
Knowing at all times you're secure and you are comfortable.
In a moment,
When I count up to five,
You'll find normal,
Everyday sensations returning to your body.
You'll be wide awake,
Refreshed and relaxed,
Ready to bring this open,
Curious and courageous energy back with you into your waking life.
And now,
When you're ready,
Slowly bring your attention back to the physical body.
Feeling the pressure points of the bed,
Chair or surface beneath you.
And moving your hands and feet.
Coming fully back to the body now.
When I reach 5,
All your senses return to full conscious awareness.
You feel more refreshed,
Energized and alert.
Fully connected back to your body again.
Ready?
One.
2.
3.
4.
5.
When you are ready,
You can open your eyes.
You're completely awake,
Completely aware and completely out of hypnosis.
You're back in the physical world.
Moving your physical body around freely,
Perhaps turning on your side,
Taking a stretch or moving your body in a way that feels good to you.
Great work!
You did it!
Now every time you practice this,
It will become more comfortable and more natural.
You will become more at ease with the experience and it will eventually become more natural to you.
You will begin to master the vibrational state.
