Induction

(Soothing music plays in the background)

Hello, and welcome to this hypnotherapy session. My name is [Your Name], and I’ll be guiding you through this journey. Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, allow yourself to relax, letting go of any tension or stress.

Imagine yourself standing at the top of a staircase, and with each step down, you feel yourself becoming more relaxed, more calm, and more serene. You can feel the weight of your body sinking, becoming heavier, and more relaxed with each step.

As you reach the bottom of the staircase, you find yourself in a peaceful place, where you feel completely relaxed and at ease. Take a moment to notice the sensations in your body, the sensation of the air on your skin, and the sound of my voice guiding you.

Deepening

Now, I want you to imagine that you’re sinking deeper into relaxation, like a warm bath enveloping your entire body. With each breath, you’re letting go of any thoughts, worries, or concerns. You’re allowing yourself to let go of the need to control, and simply be present in this moment.

As you breathe in, imagine fresh, calming air filling your lungs. And as you exhale, imagine any tension, stress, or anxiety leaving your body. With each breath, feel yourself becoming more relaxed, more calm, and more centered.

Insomnia Script

Now, let’s focus on your sleep. Imagine yourself in your bed, feeling comfortable, cozy, and relaxed. You’re safe, and you’re protected in your own space.

Imagine that with each breath, you’re releasing any thoughts, worries, or concerns that may be keeping you awake at night. You’re letting go of the need to control, and simply allowing yourself to relax, to let go, and to drift off to sleep.

As you breathe in, imagine yourself becoming heavier, more relaxed, and more sleepy. And as you exhale, imagine any remaining tension, stress, or anxiety leaving your body.

Imagine that your body is becoming sleepier, and sleepier, like a soft, warm blanket wrapping around you, holding you in a peaceful embrace. You’re safe, you’re relaxed, and you’re drifting off to sleep.

Positive Affirmations

As you continue to breathe deeply, repeat the following phrases to yourself:

* I am relaxed, and I am calm.

* I trust my body to sleep soundly tonight.

* I release all worries, and I let go of stress.

* I am safe, and I am protected in my own space.

Counting Down

Now, I want you to imagine that you’re counting down from 10, and with each number, you’re becoming sleepier, and sleepier. You’re letting go of any remaining tension, and you’re drifting off to sleep.

10… feeling relaxed, and calm…

9… letting go of worries, and concerns…

8… becoming sleepier, and sleepier…

7… feeling heavier, and more relaxed…

6… trusting my body to sleep soundly tonight…

5… releasing all tension, and stress…

Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, slowly open your eyes. You’re feeling relaxed, refreshed, and rejuvenated. Remember that you can return to this peaceful place anytime you want, and that you have the power to control your sleep.

Take a moment to notice how you’re feeling, and when you’re ready, you can slowly get up, feeling refreshed, and ready to take on the day.
