As you continue to breathe deeply, imagine this energy expanding, filling every part of you, and allowing yourself to breathe freely and effortlessly.

Here is a sample hypnotherapy script to help allowing yourself to breathe:

Induction

“Welcome to this hypnotherapy session, where you’ll learn to allow yourself to breathe and find peace. Find a comfortable position, either sitting or lying down, and take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth.

Imagine a warm, soothing light filling your body, starting at the crown of your head and flowing down to your toes. As this light travels through your body, it calms your mind and relaxes your muscles.

With each breath, feel yourself becoming more relaxed, more calm, and more centered. Allow your eyelids to grow heavy, and let your eyes gently close.

You are safe, you are relaxed, and you are in control. Allow yourself to let go of any tension or stress, and simply focus on your breath.”

Deepening

“Now, imagine yourself standing in a peaceful, natural environment. This could be a forest, a beach, or a mountain meadow. Allow yourself to fully immerse in this environment, taking in the sights, sounds, and smells.

Notice the sensation of the air moving in and out of your body, feeling your chest rise and fall with each breath. Imagine this breath filling your entire body, nourishing and rejuvenating you.

As you continue to breathe deeply, imagine yourself becoming more relaxed, more calm, and more tranquil. Repeat the following phrase to yourself: ‘I am calm, I am relaxed, and I am at peace.'”

Allowing Yourself to Breathe

“Now, bring your attention to your breath. Imagine each breath as a wave, gently rising and falling. With each inhale, imagine fresh, clean air filling your lungs, nourishing your body and mind.

As you exhale, imagine any tension, stress, or anxiety leaving your body. Imagine your muscles relaxing, your mind quieting, and your heart rate slowing.

Allow yourself to breathe deeply, freely, and effortlessly. Imagine your body responding to each breath, relaxing, calming, and rejuvenating.

Repeat the following phrase to yourself: ‘I allow myself to breathe, and I am at peace.'”

Body Scan

“Now, bring your attention to different parts of your body, starting from your toes and moving up to the top of your head. As you focus on each area, imagine any tension or stress melting away, like ice dissolving in the warm sun.

Imagine your toes relaxing, your feet relaxing, your ankles relaxing, and so on, until you reach the top of your head.

As you focus on each area, repeat the following phrase to yourself: ‘I allow myself to breathe, and I am at peace.'”

Visualization

“Imagine yourself surrounded by a warm, soothing energy. This energy is gentle, calming, and peaceful. Allow yourself to fully immerse in this energy, feeling it surround and envelop you.

Notice how this energy affects your body, calming your muscles, quieting your mind, and slowing your heart rate. Imagine this energy filling every cell, every molecule, and every atom in your body.

As you continue to breathe deeply, imagine this energy expanding, filling every part of you, and allowing yourself to breathe freely and effortlessly.”

Awakening

“When you are ready, slowly open your eyes, and take a deep breath in, feeling refreshed, renewed, and relaxed. Remember, you are in control of your body and your mind, and you have the power to allow yourself to breathe.

Take one final, deep breath in, and when you exhale, say to yourself: ‘I allow myself to breathe, and I am at peace.'”

Final Suggestion

“Before we close, take a moment to notice how you’re feeling. Notice any changes in your body or your mind. Allow yourself to feel a sense of pride and accomplishment, knowing that you’ve taken a powerful step towards allowing yourself to breathe.

Remember, the more you practice this technique, the more effective it will become. Make a commitment to yourself to practice regularly, and watch as your body and mind respond to the calming, soothing effects of hypnotherapy.”
