Here is a sample hypnotherapy script for attracting more happiness into your life:
Induction
“Welcome to this hypnotherapy session, where you’ll learn to attract more happiness into your life. Find a comfortable position, either sitting or lying down, and take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth.
Imagine yourself standing in a peaceful, relaxing place. It could be a beach, a forest, or a mountain meadow. Allow yourself to fully immerse in this scene, taking in the sights, sounds, and sensations.
As you breathe in, imagine fresh, calm air filling your lungs. As you breathe out, imagine any tension, anxiety, or stress leaving your body. Repeat this process several times, allowing yourself to relax more with each breath.
Deepening
“Now, I’d like you to imagine a gentle, soothing warmth spreading through your body, starting at the crown of your head and flowing down to your toes. As this warmth spreads, it’s calming your mind, relaxing your body, and quieting your nervous system.
Imagine yourself becoming heavier, more relaxed, and more calm with each breath. Your eyelids are growing heavy, and your body is feeling more and more relaxed.
Letting Go of Negativity
“Now, I want you to imagine any negativity, doubt, or fear leaving your body. Imagine these emotions as dark clouds in your mind, and imagine them slowly drifting away.
As these clouds disappear, imagine a bright, shining light filling your mind and body. This light represents happiness, joy, and positivity.
Happiness Affirmations
“Repeat after me: ‘I am worthy of happiness and joy.’ ‘I attract happiness and positivity into my life.’ ‘I am grateful for all the good things in my life.’
Imagine yourself repeating these affirmations, feeling the words deeply in your heart and mind. Imagine yourself believing them to be true, and feeling the happiness and positivity spreading throughout your body.
Visualization
“Now, imagine yourself in a scenario where you’re experiencing pure happiness and joy. It could be doing something you love, spending time with loved ones, or achieving a long-held goal.
Imagine yourself feeling carefree, light-hearted, and full of happiness. Imagine yourself laughing, smiling, and feeling grateful for this moment.
Counting and Awakening
“As you continue to relax and visualize yourself attracting more happiness into your life, I’ll count from five to one, and when I reach one, you’ll slowly open your eyes, feeling refreshed, renewed, and ready to take on your day.
Five… your body is relaxed, your mind is calm.
Four… you’re feeling more open to happiness and positivity.
Three… you’re attracting more happiness into your life.
Two… you’re feeling happy, carefree, and full of joy.
One… you’re ready to live a life filled with happiness and positivity. Open your eyes, feeling refreshed and renewed.”
