CHAPTER 4 - SELF-HYPNOSIS
Self-hypnosis is an act of self-control and is used to more effectively administer
one’s thoughts, desires and cravings. It is generally considered to be much more
difficult than hypnosis and requires a lot more discipline and practice. Self-
hypnosis is a useful tool when it comes to controlling negative emotions
surrounding certain events and situations, by channeling these in the right
direction, toward a more positive outlook. We’ve seen in the example of Gary
(our PTSD
combat veteran), it’s possible to take a very traumatic event and learn from it by
approaching it from another perspective. 
This methodology is applicable to self-hypnosis, also and can address everything
from stress, to poor concentration, to difficulty sleeping. Self-hypnosis can be a
useless life support if you’re able to muster the type of discipline required to
employ it and thus, benefit from it.
Self-hypnosis for success
Self-hypnosis is a means of addressing the function of your mind by opening
your consciousness to alternative ways of looking at a wide array of problems,
challenges and events. The unconscious mind works on its own. It doesn’t
suddenly decide you’re going to stop breathing or stop your heart from beating. 
The subconscious doesn’t work that way. It is programmed to be continually in
service filing away information you don’t need at the moment, sorting through
memories, processing subtext and meaning and maintain all the functions of
your body.
Self-hypnosis can allow you to access the vast potential your unconscious mind
is the key to. Practicing it can will help you program your mind to make almost

anything easy, whether it’s quitting a bad habit, improved performance at work,
or feeling more confident in your interactions with others. It can help overcome
creative blocks, stage fright, and fear and even help you lose weight. Basically,
self-hypnosis can be used to successfully overcome any challenges you face.
Self-hypnosis can help you overcome mental blocks that stand in the way of
achieving all you’re hoping to. All the blocks you experience are only in your
conscious mind and its interpretation of the way you perceive yourself. That
self-perception can be the result of any number of factors, including allowing
others to decide, on your behalf, what you’re capable of.
Self-hypnosis can teach you how to overcome mental blocks in the conscious
mind in order to change foundational beliefs and self-assertions which are
holding you back in life. Your unconscious mind is always successful at
whatever it is programmed to do. So if you program it to do what you desire then
you will be successful in fulfilling that desire. When there is dust falling in your
eyes, it is your conscious mind that makes you curious as to what is falling but it
is the unconscious mind that immediately closes your eyes and protects them
from the dust. The conscious mind is the one that causes problems while the
unconscious mind is your brain’s workhorse, making sure you don’t spend the
rest of your day attempting to flush grit from your eyes. By opening yourself to
your subconscious, you can build a bridge to your conscious mind, in order to
channel all your creative, intuitive and adventurous thoughts and actions to
fruition. By doing this, you’ll rediscover yourself and what you’re capable of.
Self-hypnosis will allow you to take control of your life and let you live the life
you want, by helping you overcome yourself. You are the biggest obstacle in
your path. By accessing your subconscious you can, in essence, get out of your
own way.
Success isn’t always about money and prestige. For some people, making it
through a day without giving in to depression, temperamental outbursts or other
conflicts, is success. For others, it is gaining the recognition they feel they
deserve. Most of these things require a certain level of confidence and the belief
that it’s possible to reach the goals you’ve set for yourself. For people who doubt
themselves, self-hypnosis is a useful tool for discovering the self-confidence

they didn’t believe they’d ever have.
Self-hypnosis gives you permission to give yourself the gift of confidence, and
to believe you can achieve your life goals and dreams. By changing the way you
talk to yourself about your abilities and potential; by re-programming a negative
self-image to make it a positive one, you can unlock skills and aptitudes you
may never have believed you possessed. Opening yourself to the subconscious
truth about who you are and what you’re capable of is the key to living a more
fulfilled life.
