Self Hypnosis
You can use Self-hypnosis to program your subconscious mind with one or more suggestions that will help bring about a habit change much more easily than if working with just the conscious mind. When using self-hypnosis you will not be asleep but in an altered state of consciousness whereby you will be more aware of what is happening around you, but your concentration will be focused on one specific thing.
During this process the altered state of consciousness is called a “Theta” brain wave state, the idea is that you have a direct communication link between the conscious and subconscious minds, this allows you to plant useful suggestions directly into the subconscious.
Self-hypnosis takes practice, and if you want to really get the benefits of hypnosis you have to practice daily,
If you miss out a few days in a row you will find yourself right back at the beginning, essentially you are creating a habit of relaxation and mind control. The following 30 day program will assist you in developing the skills to enter the hypnotic state, give yourself suggestions and bring yourself back out. Find the best time for you to practice this technique, the best time is during an inactive period of your day. In order for you to master self-hypnosis you should practice the process for 21-30 consecutive days. This is habit forming time.

Week 1
Get into a relaxed position where you will not be disturbed for approximately 15 minutes, you will struggle to stay focused for any longer.
A. Find an eye fixation point slightly above eye level and focus on it. Take a deep breath all the way in - hold - exhale slowly while relaxing and counting backward from 5 - 1. You will be taking 5 deep breaths during this process. Tell yourself your eyes are getting heavy. Finally, on the count of 1, if not before, allow your eyes to close.
B. Relax yourself from the top of your head, down to the tips of your toes. Try this if you are able, make a fist as tight as you can with one of your hands and then let it go and relax all the muscles in your hand. This is what you will be doing with every muscle in your body. Focus on all the muscle groups as you work your way down the body.
C. When you are completely relaxed, mentally repeat the following suggestion:
“Each time I utilize this process, I become more self-confident and more successful.” (Repeat in your mind for 30 seconds)
D. Count from 1-5; open your eyes, feeling relaxed, refreshed and rested. (Total process 10-15 minutes.)
Week 2
A. Repeat same steps as week one, you should find the amount of time needed to reach the relaxed state becoming shorter.
B. Between weeks 2 and 3, select an area of improvement you would like to work on.
C. Formulate a positive suggestion and write it on card.

Week 3
Get into a comfortable position with the suggestion card in hand.
A. Locate your focus spot, take your suggestion card, hold it between the focus point and your eyes, and read it to yourself 5 times.
B. Drop the card, focus on the spot, take a deep breath, and start counting backward from 5-1.
C. By the count of 1 if your eyes are not closed, close them. (After numerous repetitions, your eyes should become so heavy you will want to close them before the count of 1.)
D. Relax your body quickly from the top of your head to the tip of your toes.
E. Repeat the suggestion on the card over and over again for approximately 1 minute.
