I agree, there's a lot of discussion here and requests for scripts but very little actual scripts!
The place to read everything hypnosis in the media
Thanks Greg, I would never have thought of doing that. I need to digest that and see how I can make it work for me!
Thanks a million Greg & Pierre. Fortunately I have a full-time practice but heavily rely on word-of-mouth and some advertising (I know, I know, I can't continue to rely on doing things this way! LOL!). I don't know who Trader Joe's or Whole Foods ...
I am in a dilemma regarding a 'niche market' Greg...is this not limiting ourselves and pidgeon-holing us as a ''one trick pony'? Just not sure, that's all. Any feedback would be appreciated (marketing is my weakest area!).
A place to share the crazier moments we as Stage Show Hypnotists encounter and how we handeled it.
Hello Simon, thanks so much for sharing this with us but I tried to get into it and a message came up saying that the link is broken. Can you post it here? Thanks :-)
You can have a full time, successful and financially beneficial private practice. I spent 34 years in private practice, in three states and two countries. I would love to share my knowledge and expertise with others. Zoilita Grant MS. CCHt.
A place for professionals to discuss and exchange scientific information about pain management. Those experiencing chronic pain issues are also welcome to join in the discussions.
Sure John! Good point but that is where a detailed Source and Outcome frame and keeping good client records come in. ''Source and Outcome Frame'' questions in the pre-talk are vital and we can jot down that information. I always feel it's necessar...
Hi Christine,
Scripts are very useful at the beginning until you get familiar and comfortable but I personally feel that they should only be used as a pointer tool even at the early stages until you get confident in your ability to be resourceful...
Hi All! Still looking for some guidelines or scripts for diabetes type II and also hyperhydrosis? Hope somebody can assist! Kind regards in advance :-)
I agree with you Don - we are all doing time in one way or another!! I have bought a lot of copies of this book over the last ten years to give to friends and clients who are facing challenges. Frankl reached in to his core to find the strength to...

- Hi Sharon, I know you will be enjoying all the posts in Hypnosis in the News. I just posted a new article...make sure you check it out. All the best, Wendy aka hypnonurse

Emily said… - I like using a dial as a metaphor. You can choose what to name the settings like normal, high, low for your clients blood sugar. I wonder if some regression work would also help. Best of luck to you!

- I have a comment on your search for a type II diabetes script. How about a regular weight management script? I'm studying nutrition and am not yet certified to give advice, but feel sure that if your client cut out all sugar and high glycemic foods their diabetes would likely dissapear.

Gloria Constantas said… - Sharon, Devin Hastins has a website called devin-hastings.com and he has some books and a training video available there. You might also find his book, Control your Diabetes with Hypnosis in a local libary or bookstore! I didn't see any scripts on his website, though.
Do you plan to attend the NGH Convention in August? I am scheduled for 2 presentations this year! Hope to see you there!

Erich Reitinger said… - I´m not quite sure, if this is the right procedure to issue a hypnotic script in this community, so if I have broken any rules or should post the scripts anywhere else, - just let me know
Thanx Erich

- Hi Sharon
This is what I found in my data bank of hypnotic scripts.
It could be copyrighted, so I add the source, - but as far as I know, it was given for free, - just as we all do here ..

Diabetes
pbtrance@ulster.net
Complete transcript of hypnotic induction and trance suggestions given August 19, 1997. The patient was a frequent hypnotic subject who was overweight and had been diagnosed with diabetes. Written notes presented by patient (underlining is patient's) at beginning of session to indicate target state(s):
* The desire to exercise on a regular basis (schedule)
* The desire to EAT natural foods that heal me
* The ability to walk more effortlessly
* The grace to find a means of propagating income in a field that benefits all living beings in a manner that encourages me to be all that is good that I am.
..." it's a good sign (sigh). ......The tape is playing in the background.... the sounds of the flute... the eyes are closing. But not until they're ready to... at their own rate. And wherever it is that you are listening to this, that you have found a place of... where you can be comfortable... seated.
And, you certainly have had plenty of experience... over the course of your life... and particularly recently... in noticing the little changes, that are unique for you, that signify that... something is happening. In other words, you do know how to put yourself in a hypnotic state.
So I don't really need to spend a long period of time going over those steps, to do that. Just reminding you of a few basics: checking the body, scanning through to see if there's any unnecessary tension... willing the muscles to expand, relax, unwind... lowering the breath so that it becomes more abdominal breathing...
Perhaps even enjoying this time that you taking for yourself now. It is possible to do powerful inner work... to resolve things... clarify... reorganize our inner resources... and enjoy that process.
And how.... you will do that.... remains a bit of a mystery.
Like all children who have a good healthy sense of curiosity [indirect suggestion for regression] mysteries can be intriguing [deliberate grammatically incorrect].
And I would further postulate that you won't know, and you can't know... you can not know how your wiley, courageous, intrepid unconscious will choose... to design the strategies to bring you into balance... to walk in balance... to be in alignment with those principles that you really do, in your heart of hearts, believe in... solidly and firmly. You know that you do. Your life is about them... maximizing... For a person to realize their true potential, means that they have to have... all of their wits about them.
And they need their vehicle to be operating in tip-top shape..... That's right......
.And even with your eyes closed, you may be aware of changes in the light around you. We really can sense many things with other than our five, or six, or seven senses... And even as you're here, listening, you're also elsewhere. And it can be very en-lightening to contem...plate... the multi-dimensionality of self. That you are really existing in several matrixes of time and space... simultaneously. And one of you is here, now... at least... or perhaps two or three. And they can all be... learning... as they decide amongst herselves which one... will take the bit... between... the teeth...
And the word "encourage"... to be able to... give someone else encouragement... is to be supporting them. To be engaged in... saying "yes, you can"... And it's not easy... to do these things on your own. It can be very... nice to know... that there are others that can help... to be connected in that way... to be able to transmit [trance] information... asking for and receiving, just as you have been... so good at giving to others... really knowing what that feels like... the simple joy of a small present... And how can you... receive these... blessings now?
And transmute all of the sweetness and light into those materials so important for this body... to maintain a balance... a pH... The yin and the yang... white blood cells... red blood cells... swimming around in there, along with platelets... all of them, coursing through... and when you chew... food is broken down.
Whatever it is you have been taking in... to really be paying attention to... that you might begin to develop an awareness... that is so penetrating, that it is painful at times... that you won't be able to do, with equanimity, what you have done in the past. Because, now you know, and you really can be experiencing that... greenness... the life force in the green food... in the plant food... the earth energy... the energy from mother earth.
And every person has had some experiences where they have been out in nature... looking around... seeing plants, flowers... growing their ferns. And really having an affinity with the plant kingdom. Perhaps have watched small wildlife in the woods... A rabbit, for instance... or a fawn - who doesn't eat three meals a day... but rather browses and grazes... eats many small helpings of different green, growing things. And is able to move quickly, lightly on her feet. And really does enjoy that... hopping around.
These folks don't think of it as anything other than... enjoyment of life... To move their bodies from here to there... to scamper, quickly... Going from joy to joy. And what a find! To find a fresh, juicy... bush of berries... or something else that... can... be... taken in... to... account that... years can go by, just as easily as months or days... might not even realize time speeding up. [time distortion/future orientation in time]
Looking back from a certain point, saying "Yes, it really did begin to change then." From this point in the future... maybe nineteen ninety-nine... or beyond... who can say? which one of you will be having that memory? Or is it really a memory? Sometimes it's hard to separate out "Did I dream that? Or did it really happen to me? I'm not sure... but it certainly was a very interesting visit..." An experience that had a deep, profound, influence. [shift(s) in tense - also from third to first person and back]
Like really going down in the basement... and seeing what's going on there with the plumbing... the drainage... the septic system... the heating system... all of those... you don't see them when we are in the kitchen... or the bedroom... but they are integral. Why the entire show can't go on unless those things are kept in good running order. You can know when you can handle some of these things on your own.
Perhaps small repairs can be done in that way... also knowing that you can... call in an expert... someone who knows just how to tweak it in a certain way... just tightening one screw... a little bit this way... or twisting pipe slightly that way... Can influence the entire system.
Just as a weather front might be seen... to be coming in... and can predict days ahead when... weather will [whether we'll] change... from rain to Sun... day or Monday...
Every day is a good day for playing with the... path to change. And you can test it, to see which way the least resistance is. If you wish to cross a stream for instance, you might... check the water. Put a toe in, or a foot. To see... where it's deep... where it's flowing smoothly. Finding the easiest place to cross... yourself. That's right.
Because who else could help you more than... And you can really, really, enjoy re-discovering that... strong backbone... straight spine... just like walking... one foot at a time... one step after the next. Can see them there before you now... like phosphorescent footprints in the sands of time... stretched out in front of you... leading to that future that you have... envisioned and visited. You've even been there... so you know quite well... what a beautiful place it is. And how lovely, and graceful and elegant... NOW...
Alchemically speaking... to transmute the elements from base to finer... something that you learned to do long ago... and now you know how to... but you had forgotten. And we need to go back and remember... how to say "Yes" and how to say "No!" How to regard... with proper respect... these dictates of conscience... NOW. I'm not sure... but I think that it would be a good healthy idea... for you to begin to return back to... normal, waking consciousness... in your own way... at your own pace.
And to help you, I will be happy to count from one to ten... knowing full well the significance of the number after nine....
So ONE of the most interesting things that you've learned here is that you don't have TWO listen with your concious mind THREE because as you know your unconscious is quite independent and capable of making those decisions FOUR your own benefit. FIVE, and as these things settle in... the back of your mind... and take root there... and maybe that you notice them happening over the next SIX weeks... and even though there are SEVEN days in the week... it's possible that you EIGHT more often smaller meals... and remembered how much you like to move... and dance... and be light as a feather... and NINE... returning more and more to the here and now... preparing to awaken fully alert and rested and relaxed and replenished... TEN!

Notes: Many hypnotic language patterns as outlined by NLP practitioners and others who have studied Ericksonian and neo-Ericksonian methods are to be found in the above transcript.
Obviously shifts in tonality and volume can only be hinted at in a written transcript. Words in italics are embedded suggestions and commands. Bracketed words indicate some of the specific techniques. Others, such as "lost performatives", "missing referential indicators", "phonological ambiguities", etc. can be found be the discerning reader. Confusion technique is frequently employed (i.e. giving conflicting suggestions at different points). Metaphors abound: the primary ones developed are a) green plants and bushes in nature b) rabbits and fawns grazing and hopping c) basement of house which holds controls that can be accessed for different bodily systems (i.e. digestions, elimination, etc.) d) weather changing e) crossing stream.

I've found a source of Lightscribe discs on the net which are really cheap. I paid £11.88 for a tub of 50 cd's (delivery included). http://www.discworlduk.co.uk/Ridisc-CDR-52x-Lightscribe-v1.2-50-Cake-p-75192.html considering what you save on ink ...

I can second that, I have a lightscribe system and it's excellent. Specialist discs are needed but at just a few pence more it makes no odds and the results are fantastic.
Even better use a Lightscribe drive. The results are exceptional!
I'm Alfreton which probably is a couple of hours too.
