Here is a script for a hypnotherapy session focused on overcoming phobophobia, or the fear of fear:

Induction

“Welcome to this hypnotherapy session, where you’ll learn to overcome your fear of fear and live a life free from anxiety and phobias. Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, allow yourself to relax, letting go of any tension or stress.

Imagine yourself in a peaceful, comfortable place, where you feel safe and relaxed. This could be a beach at sunset, a forest glade, or a cozy room in your home. Take a moment to visualize this place, and allow yourself to fully immerse in its tranquility.

As you continue to breathe deeply, I’ll guide you through this session, and we’ll explore ways to overcome your phobophobia and live a life free from fear and anxiety.”

Deepening

“Now, imagine a warm, soothing light beginning to fill your body, starting at the crown of your head and flowing down to your toes. As this light travels through your body, it relaxes each muscle, quieting your mind and calming your emotions.

With each breath, this light grows stronger, filling you with a sense of peace and tranquility. You feel your eyelids growing heavy, your shoulders releasing, and your heart rate slowing. You’re becoming more relaxed, more calm, and more serene with each passing moment.

Allow yourself to let go of any thoughts or worries, and simply focus on the sensation of this peaceful light filling your body.”

Visualization

“Imagine yourself in a situation where you would normally feel fearful or anxious. Notice how you feel. Do you feel your heart racing, your palms sweating, and your mind racing with worrisome thoughts? Allow yourself to fully immerse in this feeling, and then take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, imagine any feelings of fear or anxiety leaving your body.

Now, imagine yourself feeling calm, confident, and in control in this situation. Imagine yourself responding to the situation with courage and resilience, rather than fear and anxiety.

Repeat the following phrase to yourself: ‘I am in control of my emotions, I am confident in my abilities, and I am free from fear and anxiety.'”

Empowerment

“Imagine a sense of confidence and empowerment growing within you. You’re aware of your strengths, your abilities, and your resilience. You know that you have the power to overcome any fear or anxiety, and to live a life free from phobophobia.

As you continue to breathe deeply, repeat the following phrase to yourself: ‘I am in control of my emotions, I am confident in my abilities, and I am free from fear and anxiety.’ Allow these words to fill you with confidence and empowerment.

Now, imagine yourself facing similar situations, but this time, you respond with confidence and empowerment. You’re feeling calm, confident, and in control.

As you continue to visualize this scenario, notice how you feel. Do you feel confident, empowered, and free from fear and anxiety? Allow yourself to integrate this feeling into your daily life, knowing that you have the power to overcome any phobophobia.”

Integration

“Now, imagine yourself back in your peaceful, comfortable place. Notice how you feel different, how you feel more confident, more empowered, and more in control of your emotions.

Take a moment to integrate this new feeling of confidence and empowerment into your daily life. Imagine yourself facing similar situations, but this time, you respond with confidence and empowerment.

As you continue to breathe deeply, repeat the following phrase to yourself: ‘I am in control of my emotions, I am confident in my abilities, and I am free from fear and anxiety.'”

Counting and Awakening

“As you continue to breathe deeply, I’ll count from 1 to 5, and when I reach 5, you’ll slowly, gently open your eyes, feeling refreshed, renewed, and filled with a sense of confidence and empowerment.

1… Your body feels relaxed, your mind is calm, and your heart is at peace.

2… You’re aware of your breath, slow and steady, filling you with tranquility.

3… Your thoughts are clear, your emotions are balanced, and your spirit is confident.

4… You feel connected to yourself, to others, and to the world around you.

5… When you’re ready, slowly open your eyes, and take a deep breath in, carrying this sense of confidence and empowerment with you into your daily life.”
