Imagine a warm, loving light filling the space where those dark clouds once hovered. This light represents self-love, self-acceptance, and self-forgiveness.
Here is a sample hypnotherapy script to help clients release shame and guilt:
Induction
“Welcome to this hypnotherapy session, where you’ll have the opportunity to let go of the heavy burdens of shame and guilt. Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, allow any tension or anxiety to release from your body. Feel yourself becoming more relaxed, more calm, and more centered with each breath.
Imagine yourself standing at the top of a staircase, with each step down, you feel yourself becoming heavier, more relaxed, and more peaceful. Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, take your first step down. Feel your body relaxing, becoming heavier, and more calm.
Take another deep breath in, and as you exhale, take your second step down. Allow any thoughts, worries, or concerns to float away, like clouds disappearing into the sky.
Take one more deep breath in, and as you exhale, take your third step down. You’re now in a deep state of relaxation, where your subconscious mind is open to positive suggestions and guidance.”
Deepening
“Allow yourself to settle deeper into this relaxed state, like sinking into a warm, comforting bath. Feel your body becoming heavier, more relaxed, and more peaceful with each breath.
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 dissolves any remaining tension, stress, or anxiety.
You’re now in a deep state of relaxation, where you can access your subconscious mind, and release any unwanted emotions, thoughts, or patterns that no longer serve you.”
Releasing Shame and Guilt
“Bring to mind the emotions of shame and guilt. Allow yourself to feel them, but observe them from a detached perspective. Imagine these emotions as dark, heavy clouds hovering above your head.
As you inhale, imagine fresh, clean air filling your lungs. As you exhale, imagine these dark clouds dissipating, breaking apart, and disappearing into thin air.
Repeat after me: ‘I release all shame and guilt. I am worthy of forgiveness and compassion.’ Allow these words to sink deep into your subconscious mind, and feel the weight of shame and guilt lifting from your shoulders.
Imagine a warm, loving light filling the space where those dark clouds once hovered. This light represents self-love, self-acceptance, and self-forgiveness.
Repeat after me: ‘I am kind, I am worthy, and I am enough.’ Feel these words resonating deep within your heart, and know that they are true.”
Reinforcement and Anchoring
“Take a moment to reflect on how you feel right now. Notice the sense of relief, the feeling of freedom, and the weightlessness in your body.
As you continue to breathe deeply, anchor this feeling of freedom from shame and guilt. Imagine a small, golden thread connecting your heart to your mind, reminding you that you are worthy of love, forgiveness, and compassion.
Whenever you need to access this feeling of freedom, simply take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, repeat the phrase: ‘I am kind, I am worthy, and I am enough.’ Feel this anchor strengthening, and know that you can return to this state of peace and freedom whenever you need it.”
Closing
“Take one final, deep breath in, and as you exhale, slowly open your eyes. Notice how you feel, notice the subtle shift in your energy, and notice the sense of freedom from shame and guilt.
Remember, you’ve taken the first step towards releasing these burdens, and you can return to this state of peace and freedom whenever you need it. Keep repeating the phrase: ‘I am kind, I am worthy, and I am enough,’ and feel the weight of shame and guilt lifting from your shoulders.”
Final Suggestions
“As you go about your day, remember to be kind to yourself, to practice self-compassion, and to treat yourself with the love and respect you deserve. You are worthy of forgiveness, and you are worthy of love.
Take one final, deep breath in, and as you exhale, know that you are free to live your life with confidence, with self-acceptance, and with the knowledge that you are enough, just as you are.”
