Imagine any negative emotions, thoughts, or sensations related to visiting hospitals experience flowing out of your body. See these emotions, thoughts, and sensations being released.
Here is a sample hypnotherapy script to help remove the trauma connected to experiences when visiting hospitals:
*Induction*
“Welcome to this hypnotherapy session, where you’ll learn to release the trauma connected to your experiences when visiting hospitals. Get comfortable, take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, allow yourself to relax. Feel your body letting go of any tension, starting from the crown of your head, down to your toes.
Imagine yourself in a peaceful place, where you feel safe and relaxed. Visualize yourself in this place, and take a moment to breathe in the calmness of this environment.
As you continue to breathe deeply, allow your eyelids to grow heavy, and your eyes to gently close. Permit yourself to let go of any thoughts or distractions, and focus on the sound of my voice.”
*Deepening*
“Now, I’d like you to imagine yourself at the top of a staircase, with 10 steps leading down to a peaceful, serene place. With each step you take, you’ll feel yourself becoming more relaxed, more calm, and more focused.
As you step down to step number 9, feel your body relaxing even further, letting go of any remaining tension. Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, allow yourself to settle in comfortably.
Continue down the staircase, step by step, allowing yourself to relax more with each step. When you reach the bottom, you’ll find yourself in a state of deep relaxation, where you can easily access your subconscious mind.”
*Accessing the Traumatic Memory*
“Now, bring to mind the memory of a specific experience when visiting a hospital that still causes you distress. Allow yourself to acknowledge the emotions and sensations associated with this memory.
Notice how your body responds to this memory. Allow yourself to feel the emotions, but don’t relive the experience. You are safe and in control.
Imagine a bright, warm light surrounding you, protecting you from any negative emotions or sensations. Feel this light filling your body, calming your mind, and soothing your heart.”
*Releasing the Trauma*
“Now, I’d like you to imagine a big, empty box in front of you. This box represents the container for all the emotions, memories, and sensations connected to your traumatic experience.
As you exhale, imagine any negative emotions, thoughts, or sensations related to this experience flowing out of your body and into the box. See these emotions, thoughts, and sensations being released, and imagine the box filling up with them.
When you feel ready, imagine a bright, golden light entering the box, filling it with peace, calmness, and serenity. See this light dissolving all the negative emotions, memories, and sensations, rendering them powerless.
Repeat after me: ‘I release all the trauma, fear, and anxiety connected to my hospital experiences.'”
*Reintegration and Closure*
“Now, imagine yourself standing up, feeling lighter, freer, and more at peace. Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, feel any remaining emotions or sensations leaving your body.
Notice how your body responds to this newfound sense of freedom. Feel the sense of relief, the sense of closure, and the sense of empowerment.
Repeat after me: ‘I am free from the trauma of my past. I am strong, I am resilient, and I am in control.'”
*Counting and Awakening*
“Now, I’ll count from 1 to 5, and when I reach 5, you’ll slowly open your eyes, feeling refreshed, relaxed, and liberated.
1… 2… 3… 4… 5. Open your eyes, take a deep breath in, and when you’re ready, you can slowly get up and go about your day, feeling more confident and in control.”
*Post-Hypnotic Suggestion*
“Remember, whenever you think about visiting a hospital or recall a traumatic experience, repeat the phrase ‘I am safe, I am strong, and I am in control.’ Allow this phrase to become your anchor, I am free from the trauma of my past. I am strong, I am resilient, and I am in control.
