The mind is used to create feeling confidence and strength, knowing that you can control your body and keep your bed dry. You’re a superhero, and you can do it!
Here is a sample hypnotherapy script for bedwetting relaxation for children:
Induction
“Hey there, [Child’s Name]! I’m so glad you’re here today to work on feeling more relaxed and comfortable in your body. Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, feel your body start to relax.
Imagine you’re in a special place, where you feel happy and calm. It could be a beach, a park, or even your own backyard. Take a moment to visualize this place, noticing the sights, sounds, and feelings.”
Deepening
“Now, imagine you’re lying in a warm, cozy bed. Feel the softness of the blankets and the comfort of the mattress. As you inhale, feel your body relaxing even more. As you exhale, feel any tension or stress leaving your body.
Let’s imagine that with each breath, you’re becoming more and more relaxed, feeling heavier and heavier, like a lead balloon sinking down into the mattress.”
Guided Imagery
“Imagine that your bladder is like a special bucket that can hold all your pee. Imagine that the bucket is getting bigger and bigger, so it can hold even more pee. As you inhale, feel the bucket getting bigger and stronger. As you exhale, feel any worries or anxieties about bedwetting leaving your body.
Now, imagine that you’re in control of the bucket, and you can make it hold all your pee until morning. You’re like a superhero, with a special power to keep your bed dry!”
Positive Affirmations
“Repeat after me: ‘I am strong and capable. I can control my body. I can keep my bed dry.’
Feel free to say it out loud or to yourself. Remember, these words are like magic spells that help you feel better and more confident.”
Visualization
“Imagine yourself going to bed at night, feeling calm and relaxed. See yourself sleeping peacefully, without any accidents. Visualize yourself waking up in the morning, feeling proud and happy that you stayed dry all night.
See yourself feeling confident and strong, knowing that you can control your body and keep your bed dry. You’re a superhero, and you can do it!”
Counting Up
“Take one final deep breath in, and as you exhale, feel yourself coming back to the present moment. When you’re ready, you can open your eyes and come back to our session.
Remember, you have the power to relax and feel in control of your body. Keep practicing these relaxation techniques, and you’ll get better and better at managing bedwetting.”
Remember to adjust the script according to the child’s age, needs, and preferences. It’s also important to ensure that the child is comfortable and relaxed throughout the session.
