With the power of your mind imagine yourself taking a step back, and observing the situation from a new perspective. See yourself critically evaluating the information, and making a decision based on your own values and principles.
Here’s a sample hypnotherapy script to help remove the Conformity Bias from your mind:
Induction
(Soothing music starts playing. The hypnotherapist’s calm and gentle voice guides the client into a state of relaxation.)
Hypnotherapist: “Welcome to this hypnotherapy session. Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, allow any tension or stress to leave your body. Feel your muscles relax, starting from the crown of your head, down to your toes. With each breath, feel yourself becoming more relaxed, more calm, and more centered.”
Deepening
Hypnotherapist: “Imagine yourself standing at the edge of a peaceful lake on a warm summer day. Feel the gentle breeze on your skin, and the warm sun on your face. With each breath, feel yourself becoming more relaxed, more calm, and more at peace. Allow your eyes to become heavy, and let them gently close.”
Visualization
Hypnotherapist: “Imagine yourself in a situation where you’re tempted to conform to the majority. It could be a meeting at work, a conversation with friends, or a social gathering. See yourself in that situation, and notice how you feel. Do you feel the urge to agree with others, even if you don’t fully believe in what they’re saying? Take a deep breath, and as you exhale, allow that feeling to release.”
“Now, imagine yourself taking a step back, and observing the situation from a new perspective. See yourself critically evaluating the information, and making a decision based on your own values and principles. Feel the confidence and self-assurance that comes with making an independent decision. Allow that feeling to grow, and fill your entire being.”
Reframing
Hypnotherapist: “Repeat after me: ‘I am capable of making my own decisions, based on my own values and principles.’ Say it with conviction, and feel the truth of it in your heart. ‘I am not afraid of social rejection, because I know that my opinions and beliefs are valuable and worthwhile.'”
“Now, imagine yourself in that situation again. This time, see yourself expressing your opinions and beliefs confidently and assertively. Feel the sense of pride and accomplishment that comes with standing up for yourself. Allow that feeling to become a part of who you are, and know that you can access it anytime you need to make an independent decision.”
Future Pacing
Hypnotherapist: “Imagine yourself in the future, facing a similar situation where you’re tempted to conform to the majority. See yourself remembering this hypnotherapy session, and drawing on the confidence and self-assurance you’ve developed. Feel yourself making an independent decision, and standing up for your opinions and beliefs. Know that you have the power to overcome the Conformity Bias, and live a more authentic life.”
Awakening
Hypnotherapist: “Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, slowly open your eyes. Take a moment to notice how you feel. Notice the sense of confidence and self-assurance that’s growing within you. Remember, you have the power to overcome the Conformity Bias, and live a more authentic life. Keep this feeling with you, and allow it to guide you in your daily life.”
(Soothing music continues to play as the client slowly comes back to a state of full awareness.)
