Foreword Hypnotherapy has been used in dental practice since the 19th century. It was used then in the form of hypnoanalgesia during surgical dental intervention. The first tooth extraction with the use of hypnoanalgesia was performed by Jean Victor Dudet in 1830. Since then, hypnotherapists have made powerful strides toward changing public perception about hypnosis. Doctors continue to use hypnosis to calm their patients, and to ease pain during procedures (Bierman, 1995). They regularly tell patients how easy recovery will be. Additionally, doctors tell patients that a procedure is common and meets with a high degree of success. Because these phrases are delivered by an authority figure, they act in exactly the same way as hypnotic suggestions, and become reality for the patient. More obvious hypnotic suggestions are also sometimes given to patients by doctors trained in hypnosis, and for over a century, dentists have used hypnosis to ease discomfort during dental procedures. In addition to using hypnotic techniques themselves, doctors and dentists regularly refer patients to hypnotherapists for help with weight loss, smoking cessation, and overcoming fears about dental and surgical procedures. Before the 1950s, the medical profession scoffed at hypnotherapy, but today it is being readily embraced as a complement to long-standing medical procedures. According to the southern Medical Journal (2004), as many as 40% of Americans use some form of complementary and alternative medicine such as hypnotherapy. At no other time has the world of hypnotherapy been as wide open with exciting possibilities 5 www.SteveGJones.com
Hypnoth erapy rapy Scripts cript s Volume olum e III as it is now. Because more and more people are exploring and accepting the benefits of hypnotherapy, a much greater need for qualified hypnotherapists to open practices now exists. The goal of this book is to give you, a potential or practicing hypnotherapist, a strong base for building your practice. You will be guided through a basic hypnotherapy session, and you will be given homework opportunities to use and modify your techniques so that you can help others lose weight, find love, and increase their financial success, among other issues.

Chapter hapt er 1 What is a Scri Script? pt?
7 www.SteveGJones.com
Hypnoth erapy rapy Scripts cript s Volume olum e III Perhaps the most important part of any hypnosis experience is the script. What is a script? A script is the meat of the hypnosis experience. It is where the therapy occurs. If you do not have a script, you are not doing hypnotherapy. You may be hypnotizing your client, but you are not helping anyone. A script is the portion of the hypnosis session during which you suggest change. It delivers the main message to the subconscious mind. The pretalk, induction and deepening were all to prepare the client for the script. A script can be on anything: attracting romantic partners, improving efficiency for increased financial success, weight loss, memory improvement, smoking cessation, improved confidence, or whatever the client’s challenge may be. As part of a self-hypnotherapy session, a hypnotherapist could even write a script to enhance her creativity—to suggest to her subconscious mind that she is going to write more creative scripts. The script is where you form new associations for the client. Instead of being afraid, the client will associate a pleasant feeling with talking to members of the opposite sex, eating health foods, going down an escalator, down an elevator, into a crowd of people, up on a stage, in an airplane, near a snake. I have a prospective client who is afraid of entering parking garages. During the script, she will be given a new association for entering a parking garage, and she will no longer be afraid. Her old association, the one she has now, is scary for her. The script will plant positive suggestions that her body will remember in the future when she actually enters a parking garage. 8 www.SteveGJones.com

If you are new to hypnotherapy, you might want to start with a script written by someone else. You can borrow one of my scripts, or a script from one of the countless books available on this topic (see chapter’s end for recommended resources). When using a script that someone else has written, make sure that you have read through it before the hypnosis session. The worst thing you can possibly do is go into a session without previously having read through the script. You want to be familiar with the script for several reasons. First of all, you do not want to trip through words and concepts while reading the script during the session. (Because your client’s eyes are covered, you can read a script during a session. You do not have to memorize it.) Second of all, you need to evaluate the script prior to reading it to your client. Each client is different, so you will need to find and eliminate those things in the script that are not going to apply to the particular client for whom the script is being used. You need to have a full understanding of the script so that you can tailor it to reach the best possible results. Do your due diligence. Do not allow yourself any excuses. Prepare every time. Beware of procrastinating and ending up in a situation that causes you to stumble. You can get lazy. You can get into a rut. During a live sermon, the preacher can say, “I am sorry. I made a mistake. Let me backtrack.” You cannot do that under hypnosis. Every word you say goes into the patient’s subconscious mind.
9 www.SteveGJones.com
Hypnoth erapy rapy Scripts cript s Volume olum e III Be prepared. You are dealing with the most precious part of a human: His mind. Treat it delicately. I do not say this to scare you. I say this to prepare you. Be prepared. Consider a script for weight loss that begins like this: Now, you will imagine that you are a machine and you can put different types of batteries in your power center. You have been choosing batteries which do not last long and leave a residue. From now on, you will chose proper batteries which power you for a long time and do not leave a residue. Let’s say that you are not interested or inspired by the machine analogy used in the script. Also, your client is not interested in machines at all. Would this script be appropriate? Probably not. Would it be more powerful to use a script that related to something you and your client related to? Probably. Although the analogies are good and potentially powerful, if they do not feel natural for you, you will not be confident when reading them. And, more importantly, if they do not feel natural for the client, another script choice would be more appropriate. So go through any script you intend to use. Make sure there are no surprises. If someone hands you a script and says, “Here. Use this when you have someone who wants to lose weight,” make sure you go through the script ahead of time. Do not be afraid to alter a script. Scripts are not written in stone. Make the script into something s omething that flows freely from your mouth. 10 www.SteveGJones.com

One of the books I recommend at the end of this book, The Handbook of Hypnotic Suggestions and Metaphors by Hammond, contains many good scripts. However, they were written by hypnotherapists with advanced educational and medical degrees, and are therefore extremely technical. Take the general idea of these scripts and rewrite them. You have got to tailor things to your own unique flavor. I cannot emphasize that enough. The only rule for modifying scripts is this: Never insert anything that could cause harm. We do not harm people. We help people. Say good things. Do not say frightening or harmful things. Do not excite your client. Bore him. Everything is calm. Everything is peaceful. Everything is beautiful. Everything is positive. As long as you remember not to harm people, your script will be fine. If you do not have a script to modify, you will have to write your own script. Let’s assume that your client wants to lose weight and you do not have a script. What should you do? Do you give up? No. You do not give up. You take heart in the fact that everything you need is already within you. You just need a little guidance. So let’s take this step-by-step. First of all, ask yourself what the goal is. Here, the goal is for the client to lose weight. Before writing the script, you need to find out what a reasonable target is. Do not allow the client to expect to 11 www.SteveGJones.com
Hypnoth erapy rapy Scripts cript s Volume olum e III lose 100 pounds in six weeks. If you are not sure what is reasonable, consult a dietician or a physician. (Remember: if your client is under the care of another healthcare professional, make sure you are agreement with the course of treatment.) Find out how much weight the person can expect to lose, and set a reasonable target within a reasonable time frame. Your due diligence should continue with a conversation with the client. Before you write the script, find out what the client is eating that is harmful. Ask the client: “What are the foods you are eating, and when are you eating them?” And then work this information into the script. For example, perhaps the client says, “I am eating Snickers bars at 11 p.m. right before I go to bed. I am eating three of them a night. I cannot figure out why on earth I am gaining weight. It is just not fair.” The script is the place to alter the negative behavior that is causing the problem. Your script will want to tell this client: that he can and will change his behavior. If the person is gaining weight, unable to talk to potential romantic partners, or scared of flying, the script is the place to insert suggestions for positive change. The script is where the healing takes place.
If she is afraid of planes, she gets on that plane. She takes that plane ride. She gets off that plane and nothing has gone wrong. Have her imagine the whole thing. She is safe the entire time. Nothing goes wrong. Be creative. Say things like, “You can see the cockpit from where you are sitting and everything looks fine. And you know that 12 www.SteveGJones.com
Hypnoth erapy rapy Scripts cript s Volume olum e III your bags are stowed and you just feel great because everything is taken care of. It is a smooth flight. You look outside. And it is daytime and you see the sky and it is so beautiful.” If you are working on motivation, find out why the client is not motivated. Is she unmotivated because she does not think she will accomplish the desired results? If so, the script should help the client to see herself as having already accomplished the results. The client already has achieved whatever it is that is causing her to procrastinate. If the client is afraid of snakes, have him see a snake from a distance. Tell him, “Everything is fine and now if you want to you can walk closer. Only walk as close as you feel comfortable with and no closer. And each time you hear my voice, you can allow yourself to get closer but understand that no harm will come to you.” When writing a script, I am inviting you to use your creativity. I am inviting you to reach inside and pull something out of yourself something that will be helpful. I am not going to tell you a way that is written in stone because that would limit your creativity. Beyond the sky is the limit. Go beyond. Just let it flow. Keep in mind your plan, your idea, and your motive. Your motivation is to help the person. You are trying to help the client. Everything is positive. Everything is uplifting. We are not dwelling on the negative. We focus on the positive. Keep your eye on the mark and remember that you will end up at whatever point on which you have focused. Likewise, we want to keep the client’s focus on the positive change from within. The client should imagine that the change has happened. We want the client to think: “I am already flying. flying. I am not planning on it. I am getting getting on that 13 www.SteveGJones.com
Hypnoth erapy rapy Scripts cript s Volume olum e III plane. I am not imagining it. I am flying. I am getting as close to that snake as I feel comfortable. I am taking the steps to get to that escalator and I am on it and everything is fine.” As discussed earlier, a person’s body does not know the difference between imaging something and having it actually happen. This means that the client has the advantage of knowing rationally that the situation is not occurring, but physically and emotionally the client feels he has experienced the event. Therefore, when it comes time for the client to go down the escalator, his body will feel as though he has a positive and successful experience under his belt. Though they are the meat of the session, scripts should not exceed 10 minutes when read slowly aloud. The following chapters contain scripts which can be used by you in working working with with yourself yourself or working with clients. clients. I have divided them into chapters to make referencing them easier. Keep in mind that the chapter titles are only general guides and that some scripts could be used for multiple purposes. purposes. You may also also feel free to modify any of my scripts to suit you particular needs.

And you realize that all life follows a divine blueprint that we have labeled DNA. Science has found the first two physical strands fo the DNA blueprint; it has been found to be the double helix, building block of all life. And you realize there are five other double helix pairs in the DNA system. The six pairs of strands are called 12 strand DNA. And in this system the first pair are physical and the rest are not physical. They are energy imprints, that’s right. And as you now prepare to activate these six pairs, you are relaxed. You are relaxed. And you are now activating the first pair. You realize that this pair governs the creation of all of the parts of our physical self. It controls our genetics, that’s right. And it controls our aging process, our physiological functions, that’s right. And you now activate the second pair which governs our emotional body, that’s right, that’s right. So relax now, relax now as we now activate the third pair which governs our mental body. Relaxing as we activate the twelve strands which occur is six pairs. Activating now the fourth pair which governs our soul. You are so very relaxed as you now prepare to activate the fifth pair and you do activate the fifth pair which governs our soul cluster and controls the motion and the timing of certain souls within a soul cluster and allows them to seek and find each other, that’s right. You now slowly activate the sixth and final pair which governs all that has been created. You realize that this aligns your twelve strand DNA with the divine will. So relax now, relax now, relax now.

You are so very relaxed and just like a driver in a vehicle, you can step out of your vehicle, which is your body. You are so very relaxed and drifting now, beginning to feel your true self. You are a soul within a body and now perhaps you begin to feel a leg move or an arm, but this is your astral body, your soul, and now you can begin to move your astral leg or arm, just slightly and you can feel it move independently of your physical self. And now you feel the energy, the energy of your spirit as you slowly begin to rise, slowly begin to rise and you are surrounded by a protective white light which shields you from any harm.

I realize that you are a fire sign andthat you can be aggressive and dominant and those are wonderful qualities. You are ruled by Mars, the planet of war. However, I realize that deep inside you are very gentle and you are very calm, that’s right, gentle and calm. I want you to realize that it’s okay to let people see your gentle and calm side. It’s okay to show what you might consider weakness. People want to know the real you. They want ot know who you are. So from now on, perhaps when you find yourself with a loved on, you can let your guard down and let that person know who you really are and what you’re really like. You are a wonderful, loving person. At the same time, it’s okay to be aggressive when you need to be. It’s okay to be a pioneer. It’s okay to be passionate. It’s okay to give everything you have to a project ot make it work. At the same time, I would like you to realize that it is okay when people disagree with you. They are entitled to their opinions. You realize that not everyone is as quick as you are. Not everyone has the pure logic that you have, the ability to see things for what they are. You have a gift, a gift which allows you to figure out what is really going on, to see the facts as they really are. Some people lack this gift. And from now on I would like you to be a little more lenient with these people. Try to understand them rather than being judgmental. Just try to understand that not everyone is like you. Many people are weaker than you but understanding them and respecting them as equals, equal to you, that insight will take you far in life. I realize that you will fight when the cause is right and that is a wonderful quality, however it is not always necessary to fight. Sometimes you can get your point across by using conversation, by calmly explaining to the other person or other people what you feel. Explaining 21 www.SteveGJones.com
Hypnoth erapy rapy Scripts cript s Volume olum e III calmly why you feel you are right. As a fire sign, you have a lot of energy. Sometimes you have an excess of energy. From now on I would like you to channel this excess energy in a very appropriate way. If there are any habits you have which you would like to get rid of, I encourage you and invite you to get rid of those habits and replace them with activities you like to do, perhaps jogging, biking, writing, helping others. Whatever it is that you enjoy doing anyway, perhaps you will consider replacing some of your unwanted habits with those positive activities. Aries, you are a pioneer. You like to be first. You are assertive and independent. You tend to set high goals and that is wonderful. Sometimes you set high goals for the people around you, but remember people have limitations. You have fewer limitations than most people. So I want you to become more lenient on others, understanding their limitations. I realize that when you give of yourself, you give everything and that is wonderful, but I would like you to begin reserving some energy for yourself, that’s right. Keep a part of what you would normally give, for yourself. Fortify yourself, build yourself up. Make sure there is always enough for you Aries. I realize how fiery you can be in a relationship. In the past this has perhaps been perceived as aggressiveness. From now on, perhaps you can balance this with that calmness you have inside, that’s right. You will find that you will attract more people by being less aggressive and more calm in a relationship, that’s right. I understand that you want respect and that is wonderful. Understand that you must both give and receive respect. I understand that you want other people to be assertive. Realize that other people are the way they want to be and you need to become more comfortable with respecting who they are, that’s right. Respect people for who they are already without having to change them. I understand that you need affection. Perhaps more than certain other signs. From now on I would like you to realize that you can give yourself the affection and the attention 22 www.SteveGJones.com
Hypnoth erapy rapy Scripts cript s Volume olum e III you deserve by treating yourself right, by respecting yourself. And this allows you to rely less on the affection from others and to be more self sufficient and to be more powerful, that way when you are in a loving relationship you will require less of the other person because you are giving yourself more. Aries you are a winner and you know it. You are a winner. You will succeed. So from now on I want you to realize that. Let go of any negative attitudes you have had in the past. Realize that everything is going to be just fine. Because everyday you are improving more and more and realizing just how powerful you are. So relax now and realize that everything is going to be just fine.

You focus all of your attention and energy to the present. If there are things going on around you in your special place, you take notice. You appreciate these things. These things enrich your life more than you can imagine. You are no longer constantly thinking toward your future. You enjoy your life right now. You live for the moment. You do not dwell on past successes or failures. None of that matters in your special place. Look at all the wonderful things going on around you. You are motivated by the things that go on around you. They fill your life with joy and a sense of calm. Now picture your normal day to day life. Go ahead and transfer all the appreciation you have while you are in your special place and apply it toward your life. You now live a new life that is richer and more fulfilling. You take time out of your day to notice the little things. You find yourself smiling more at things that you never used to smile at, that’s right. Your entire attitude has changed. You are more positive. You realize that life can only truly be enjoyed in the present. Picture your normal daily routine. Perhaps you are at work or in your home. You are interacting with people and enjoying it. You take pleasure out of the different conversations you have with people. Common routine tasks that you perform everyday are no longer mundane for you. You appreciate your ability to get things done and you enjoy being productive. You enjoy the relationships that you have with family and friends. You realize how much they mean to you and how they play an important role in your life. You lead a very fulfilling life. 24 www.SteveGJones.com

Look at the smile on your face, you are very happy and satisfied with your life. You no longer look at your past with either positive or negative thoughts and you no longer dwell on your future. You live for the moment everyday. And day by day you find that more and more you notice the little things. Each little thing that you notice makes you smile and fulfills your mind, body, and soul. You appreciate the relationships you have around you. You have meaningful relationships with family, friends, coworkers, and acquaintances. But most importantly you have a fulfilling relationship with yourself. You are no longer negative. Instead, you focus on the positive, vastly changing your life for the better. You realize that you are worthy of all the successes that come your way. You appreciate the good that comes out of your life. And you see all the good that you create. You are a caring and confident person. You enjoy you life right now the way it is. You still have hopes and dreams, but you realize that the most important thing is the present and you appreciate all the wonderful things that occur around you. All around you your life is happy. You are happy, the people around you are happy. You improve the lives of the people around you with your thoughtfulness. You appreciate the here and now and that feels absolutely wonderful.

Just as you are relaxed right now. You will become more and more relaxed in your daily life. Day by day, relaxing more and more. And you will find that you deal with situations as they arise. If there is a problem, you handle it in that moment. You handle it in a very productive, polite, yet assertive way. You do not carry any stress in the muscles surrounding your mouth. You are kind to yourself. You are kind to yourself and you no longer have time for negative thoughts or feelings. You fill your mind with productive goals and if you should find yourself clenching your teeth or tightening the muscles in and around your jaw, you will keep your mouth slightly open, wide enough to place your tongue between your back teeth. This will help your muscles become loose, loose, loose. This will stop your muscles from tightening. The longer your tongue stays between your teeth, the more your muscles will become loose, limp like wet cotton and you will find them very soon indeed. Now, I want you to picture yourself doing whatever it is that you do when you find yourself clenching your teeth. Perhaps you clench your teeth when you are sleeping or maybe you clench your teeth while stressed out at work or at home, or perhaps you clench your teeth when you are participating in sport. Whenever you most notice yourself clenching your teeth, picture yourself there right now. Imagine the thoughts that are going through your mind. Maybe you are stressed, maybe you are dreaming, or maybe you are trying to get out some aggression. Really feel this emotion right now. How do you feel? What are you feeling? Stress, aggression, tightness? Okay, good. Now, whenever you feel this way, I want you to immediately think about relaxing the muscles in your shoulders, the muscles in your neck, the muscles in and around your jaw, and the 55 www.SteveGJones.com
Hypnoth erapy rapy Scripts cript s Volume olum e III muscles in your face and head, that’s right. Go ahead and relax all of those muscles. Feel as if a huge weight has been lifted off your shoulders. Feel your jaw as it slowly lowers. Feel the space increase between your upper and lower jaw, that’s right. Feel all tension just disappear from this area. You fell so loose and stress free. Your neck is not tight; you are completely loose. Your mouth is slightly open and your jaw hangs loosely. From now on you will become aware when your jaw clenches together. As soon as you feel the pressure, you will quickly open your mouth, relax your jaw, and feel all tension disappear. You realize how important it is to stop clenching your teeth. Teeth clenching puts a lot of pressure on your jaw and can cause TMJ and nerve pain. You don’t want that. You want to be relaxed. That’s right, let your jaw hang down. Relax your jaw, your mouth, and your lips. Imagine that you have cotton in your mouth, separating your upper and lower jaw. This cotton is light and fluffy and even when you press your teeth together, there is no tension at all. Your shoulders, neck, jaw and face are completely tension free. You feel so good, so relaxed, that’s right. Now look into your future. Picture yourself six months from now. You have completely gotten rid of your habit of teeth clenching. Feel how good it feels to get rid of that bad habit. You feel as if a weight has been lifted off your shoulders. All the pressure that your jaw used to bare down on your teeth, no longer exists, that’s right. Your lower jaw just hangs loosely below your upper jaw. All the muscles in your mouth and surrounding your mouth are so loose and so relaxed. You no longer clench your teeth because you are becoming more and more relaxed and teeth clenching is a thing of the past. You are so proud of yourself. You have made a major change in your life. You feel so much more at ease now in your day to day activities. So just relax now and drift and enjoy this peaceful state you are in.

Feel the cells of that part of your body releasing any toxins where they will properly dealt with by your body and eliminated by your body, that’s right. Feel this process happening now. And every time you listen to this recording, you can choose to work on a particular part of your body, perhaps your legs, or your blood flow, perhaps an organ in your body. And now is that time to work on the area that is affected by the deep vein thrombosis. Feel an extra amount of warmth in that part of your body, the part that is now being cleansed and healed and receiving special attention. Perhaps there is more than one part. Relax that part of your body and feel the warmth there. The liquid is working extra hard to relax that part of your body and cleanse it, that’s right. The liquid is working on moving your blood easily and effortless through your veins. Cleansing your body naturally, feel this process continuing long after this hypnosis session is over cleansing, healing, repairing, and restoring that part of your body that is affected by the deep vein thrombosis, giving it that special attention until they are healed. I want you now to imagine at the bottom of each of your feet the liquid is now draining out of your body and you can think of this process as an oil change of a vehicle. The oil goes into the engine, lubricates the engine, cleans the engine and then it need to be changed. You are releasing the liquid now, notice it’s a little dirty. It has picked up a few 58 www.SteveGJones.com

And each time you repeat this process your body becomes cleaner and cleaner, more and more free of toxins, healing your deep vein thrombosis. Your body is almost empty now of the liquid which has turned a slight brown color. It is a little dirty, that is normal and natural because it has cleansed your body. All the toxins are leaving your body now and now as the last few drops drain out, your body fills itself with natural energy. You can imagine this to be any color you want. Feel your body filling itself from every cell of your body with natural, vital energy allowing you to enjoy perfect health. You are developing healthy habits, eating things which are healthy for you, avoiding things which are unhealthy. Choosing exercise on a regular basis, keeping your mind healthy as well with positive thoughts, powerful, productive ideas, taking care of your spiritual health. If you have a faith, you find yourself more interested in that faith because you take care of your spiritual health. Mind, body, and soul, in perfect harmony, in perfect balance, perfect balance, the way you were designed to operate. You make regular visits to your doctor to make sure that you are healthy. So relax and realize that everything is going to be just fine because day by day you are becoming more and more healthy. The natural state of your body is a healthy state. Your body is now instructed to be in perfect, perfect health. To be in perfect and radiant health. So relax, relax, relax.
