Hypnosis to replace anxiety with your inner calm place

This recording is a hypnotic practice to help with anxiety and induce calmness. It begins with deep breathing and bringing awareness to the body. A grounding exercise is done by visualizing energy going down into the earth. Attention is then brought to the feet, legs, and torso to feel settled and grounded. The practice continues by imagining a peaceful and calming place, using all five senses to fully experience it. The session ends with three soothing breaths and upon opening the eyes, colors will appear brighter and the person will feel calm and in control. Welcome to Leading Light with Naomi. This recording is hypnotic in nature and is not to be used whilst driving or operating machinery. Find a comfortable place to either sit or lie down. This is a helpful practice if you are feeling anxious and it's helpful in resetting and allowing yourself to feel peaceful and calm. To start with, we are going to close our eyes, relax and give yourself a deep breath in and out. On the next exhale, we are going to take your awareness to behind your eyes. Smile. Feel the energy in your body. Call back your energy from all the people, times, places and events. Just call it all back to you. As you inhale, draw your energy into your lungs. And as you exhale, feel your energy filling your entire body. Notice your root chakra near the base of your spine. Feel your energy pulsing there. Extend your energy downward from your root chakra, like a tree growing roots, or like a waterfall cascading down into the earth. See it going down, down, down, all the way to the centre of the earth. This is your grounding cord. Now, you can let your grounding cord expand until it is as wide as your body, deeply rooting you into the earth. You can use this grounding cord as a way to release negative energy. Simply visualize all your negative energy releasing from your body into the grounding cord. I'd like you now to bring your awareness to your feet. Noticing your feet helps you to feel settled and grounded. So noticing your feet. And if you're wearing shoes, notice the shoes on your feet. And really allowing all of your awareness to come to your feet. Next, moving up your body. Just bring your awareness to your legs. Even feeling your legs from the inside. Just really allowing your attention to go to your legs. And now, moving up your body. Bring your awareness to your torso. Noticing your clothing on your body. And even begin to notice the subtleties of your clothing moving as you're breathing. Really just becoming aware of your body right here, right now. And we'll begin the imagery of the calm place. So I'd like you to bring to mind a place that you have either been or would like to go that represents somewhere that is very peaceful, and very calm. Oftentimes, people pick a place in nature, like a mountain, a beach, a hiking trail, or a favorite holiday destination. Or you can really let your imagination go wild. And imagine a perfect place that only exists for you. Somewhere that you would either like to go, or that you have been that feels settling and calming. And when this place is clear in your mind's eye, I'd like you to fire your five senses. So first in your mind's eye, I'd like you to look around this place and see the landscape. See the colors, the textures. Notice if the sun is shining, or if it's shady. Becoming aware of what you would see as you look around. Next, bring awareness to the sounds you would hear. The sounds that are close up, and the sounds that you would hear at a distance. Really taking in any of the calming and soothing sounds that are in this place. And next, I'd like you to take in any scents that are in this calming place. If you're at the beach, you might smell the salty water, the sea air, the suntan lotion. So just take a moment to take in any of the beautiful scents that are in this calming place. Next, I'd like you to take a moment and imagine what this place would feel like on your skin. Are you under the sunlight? Or shade? Is it warm? Humid? Or is it cool and brisk? Is it windy? So just take a moment to really imagine what it would feel like to be in this place. And now, I'd like you to take another moment to absorb anything else that feels particularly calming and soothing from this calm place. And we'll close this practice with three soothing inhales and exhales. So inhale and exhale. Inhale and exhale. Inhale and exhale. We are going to open our eyes at the count of five. Once they are open, you're going to be surprised that the colours around you are going to be brighter and clearer. You will feel calm and in control. One, two, feeling good, feeling calm. Three, four, wiggling your fingers and toes. Five, eyes open, feeling amazing. Thank you.
