With the power of your mind you have the power to choose who you spend your time with. You have the power to choose who you allow into your garden, into your energy. You are the guardian of your own energy, and you are in control.
Here is a hypnotherapy script to help individuals be more selective with whom they spend their time:
Title: “Guarding My Energy”
Induction:
“Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, allow your body to relax, letting go of any tension or stress. Imagine yourself standing in a peaceful, serene environment, surrounded by calmness and tranquility. With each breath, feel your body relaxing further, letting go of any doubts or fears. You are safe, and you are in control.”
Deepening:
“Now, imagine yourself standing at the top of a staircase, with each step leading you deeper into relaxation. As you take the first step down, feel your body relaxing, letting go of any physical tension. With each step, feel your mind quieting, letting go of any mental chatter. Take five deep breaths, and with each breath, feel yourself relaxing further, becoming more calm, more serene, and more focused.”
Guarding My Energy:
“Imagine a beautiful, vibrant garden, representing your energy and your time. See each person in your life as a flower in this garden. Some flowers are bright, colorful, and nourishing, while others are wilted, draining, and toxic.
“As you gaze at the garden, repeat the following phrase to yourself: ‘I am the gardener of my energy.’ You are the one who gets to decide which flowers to nurture, which to prune, and which to remove.
“Imagine yourself carefully and intentionally tending to the flowers that uplift, inspire, and support you. You are giving them the attention, care, and nourishment they need to thrive. You are surrounding yourself with people who bring joy, positivity, and love into your life.
“Now, imagine the wilted, draining, and toxic flowers. These are the people who drain your energy, who bring negativity and stress into your life. Imagine yourself prudently and carefully pruning these flowers, setting boundaries, and limiting your interaction with them.
“Remember, you have the power to choose who you spend your time with. You have the power to choose who you allow into your garden, into your energy. You are the guardian of your own energy, and you are in control.
“Repeat the phrase once more: ‘I am the gardener of my energy.’ Feel the sense of empowerment, the sense of confidence, and the sense of self-care that comes with being intentional about who you surround yourself with.”
Counting and Awakening:
“Now, take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, slowly begin to count from 5 to 1, feeling more alert, more awake, and more in control of your energy with each number. When you reach 1, you will be fully awake, feeling refreshed, renewed, and empowered to choose who you spend your time with.
5… feeling more alert
4… feeling more awake
3… taking care of my energy
2… setting healthy boundaries
1… fully awake, feeling refreshed, renewed, and empowered to choose who I spend my time with.”
Final Suggestion:
“Remember, your energy is precious, and it’s up to you to guard it wisely. Take time each day to tend to your garden, to nurture the relationships that uplift you, and to prune away those that drain you. Repeat the phrase to yourself: ‘I am the gardener of my energy.’ Allow the words to resonate within you, filling you with confidence, self-care, and empowerment.”
