No Fear for Dogs and Cats. Imagine that you’re carrying a special gift in your hands. This gift is a sense of friendship and connection. As you hold it, you feel a warm, loving energy radiating from it.
What a wonderful goal! Here’s a sample hypnotherapy script to help someone see dogs and cats as friends:
*Induction*
(Soothing music plays in the background)
Hello, and welcome to this hypnotherapy session. Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, allow yourself to relax. Feel your eyelids getting heavier, and your body becoming more relaxed with each breath.
Imagine yourself in a peaceful place, where you feel completely safe and comfortable. This could be a beach, a forest, or any other place that brings you joy. Take a moment to visualize this place, and allow yourself to fully immerse in it.
*Deepening*
As you continue to breathe deeply, I want you to repeat after me: “I am relaxed, I am calm, I am safe.” Say it with conviction, and feel the truth of those words sinking deeper into your mind.
Now, imagine yourself walking down a gentle slope, feeling your feet getting heavier with each step. As you reach the bottom, you find yourself in a deep, relaxing trance.
*Accessing the Mindset*
Now, I want you to imagine that you’re in a room filled with dogs and cats. These animals are all around you, but don’t worry, you’re safe and in control.
Notice how you feel about these animals. Are you tense, anxious, or fearful? Allow yourself to acknowledge those feelings, but don’t try to change them yet.
*Reframing*
Now, I want you to imagine that you’re carrying a special gift in your hands. This gift is a sense of friendship and connection. As you hold it, you feel a warm, loving energy radiating from it.
Imagine that you’re offering this gift to the dogs and cats around you. As they receive it, they start to transform. They become your friends, your companions, and your confidants.
See the dogs wagging their tails, and the cats purring contentedly. They’re happy to see you, and they welcome you with open arms… or paws.
*New Perspective*
Now, I want you to imagine that you’re one of them. You’re a dog or a cat, and you’re part of a joyful, playful pack. You’re chasing each other, playing games, and having the time of your life.
Feel the sense of belonging, of being part of a community that loves and accepts you unconditionally. This is what it’s like to be a friend to dogs and cats.
*Integration*
Now, I want you to imagine yourself back in the room, surrounded by dogs and cats. But this time, you see them as your friends, your companions. You feel a sense of joy, love, and connection.
Notice how your body feels different. You’re no longer tense or fearful. You’re relaxed, calm, and at ease.
*Counting and Awakening*
Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, I want you to count backwards from 5 to 1. With each number, feel yourself becoming more alert and awake.
5… You’re feeling more awake and aware.
4… Your eyelids are getting lighter.
3… You’re taking deeper breaths.
2… You’re feeling more energized.
1… You’re fully awake, feeling refreshed and renewed.
*Final Suggestions*
Remember, dogs and cats can be your friends, your companions, and your confidants. You have the power to choose how you see them.
Repeat this to yourself whenever you need to: “Dogs and cats are my friends, I am calm, I am at peace.”
Take this new perspective with you, and know that you can always come back to this peaceful place whenever you need to.
