Here’s a sample hypnotherapy script to help heal the core fear of losing control wounds:
Induction
(Speak in a calm, soothing voice)
“Welcome to this hypnotherapy session, where you’ll embark on a journey of healing and empowerment. Find a comfortable position, either sitting or lying down, and take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth. Allow your body to relax and let go of any tension or stress.
Imagine yourself standing at the edge of a peaceful lake on a warm summer day. Feel the gentle breeze on your skin and the warmth of the sun on your face. With each breath, allow yourself to relax further, letting go of any thoughts or worries.
As you exhale, repeat the phrase ‘I let go’ to yourself, allowing any tension or anxiety to release. Now, imagine yourself becoming heavier, more grounded, and connected to the present moment. Allow your eyes to gently close, and let yourself drift into a deep state of relaxation.”
Deepening
“Imagine yourself descending a gentle staircase, with each step leading you deeper into relaxation. As you descend, repeat the phrase ‘I am safe’ to yourself, allowing any fears or doubts to dissipate.
Notice the sensation of your feet touching the ground, feeling heavy and grounded. Imagine roots growing from the soles of your feet, deep into the earth, anchoring you in stability and control.
Now, visualize a warm, soothing light filling your body, starting at the crown of your head and flowing down to your toes. As this light travels, it dissolves any tension, anxiety, or fear, replacing it with a sense of calm and tranquility.”
Exploring the Fear
“Gently, bring your attention to the area of your life where you feel a sense of losing control. It might be a specific situation, a relationship, or a general feeling. Allow yourself to observe this area without judgment, noticing any emotions, thoughts, or physical sensations that arise.
Imagine yourself standing in front of a large, old-fashioned door. This door represents the feared situation or feeling of losing control. Notice the door’s texture, color, and any symbols or markings on it.
As you stand before this door, allow yourself to acknowledge the fear and anxiety that arises.
Repeat the phrase ‘I acknowledge my fear’ to yourself, giving yourself permission to feel and process these emotions.
Now, imagine a gentle, compassionate voice speaking to you, saying, ‘You are safe, and you are in control.’ Allow this voice to reassure you, reminding you that you have the power to choose how you respond to any situation.”
Reframing and Empowerment
“Imagine yourself taking a deep breath, and as you exhale, you begin to shift your perspective. You start to see that the fear of losing control is not a fixed reality, but rather a perception that can be changed.
Visualize a new door, one that represents empowerment and control. This door is adorned with symbols of strength, resilience, and confidence. As you approach this door, imagine yourself feeling more grounded, more capable, and more in control.
Repeat the phrase ‘I am in control’ to yourself, allowing this affirmation to become a deeply ingrained truth. Imagine yourself making choices, taking actions, and navigating challenges with ease and confidence.
As you stand before this new door, imagine a surge of energy and motivation flowing through your body. You feel empowered, capable, and ready to face any situation that comes your way.”
Integration and Closure
“Take a moment to notice how you feel, allowing yourself to fully embody this newfound sense of control and empowerment. Imagine yourself integrating this new perspective into your daily life, making choices that align with your values and goals.
As you slowly begin to return to a state of full consciousness, remember that you can always return to this place of empowerment and control.
Repeat the phrase ‘I am in control’ to yourself, knowing that you have the power to choose how you respond to any situation.
When you’re ready, slowly open your eyes, and take a deep breath, feeling refreshed, renewed, and empowered. Remember to take this sense of control and confidence with you, integrating it into your daily life, and know that you can always return to this peaceful, empowering state whenever you need it.”
Post-Hypnotic Suggestions
“Before you fully emerge from this trance state, I offer you the following post-hypnotic suggestions:
* Whenever you feel a sense of losing control, you will take a deep breath and remind yourself that you are safe and capable.
* You will approach challenges with confidence and empowerment, knowing that you have the power to choose your response.

Remember, these suggestions will guide you in your journey towards healing and empowerment. Trust in yourself and your ability to navigate any situation with ease and confidence.”
