Falling into trance!

Last post I talked about Hypnosis and a bit about entering a trance. This post I will go a bit more in depth.

What is a trance?

A trance is an altered state of consciousness. In this state the subconscious mind becomes open to suggestions. Therefore we can while we're in a state of trance "program" ourselves to become whatever we want to. We could remove bad habits easily in just a few sessions or instill new better ones. The options for our self development are really limitless.

Now onto the good stuff! How to fall into trance.

1. Sit comfortably. Do not lie down because you might fall asleep.

2. Breathe in for a count of six, hold for a count of six and then exhale for a count of six. Do this breathing until you are completely relaxed. Ideally, you should no longer be able to feel your body.

3. Imagine you are climbing down a ladder in the dark. Don’t visualize a ladder; just imagine you can feel yourself doing it. On the exhale, feel yourself climbing a step or two down the ladder. On the inhale, feel yourself holding still on the ladder.

4. Now, let go of the ladder and free fall backwards. If you get dizzy or disoriented, just bring your attention to the front of your body and this will stop. This mental falling effect, when combined with deep relaxation and mental calmness, will cause you to enter the trance state.

 5. Keep doing this for as long as it takes. The time it takes to enter trance will vary, depending on your experience with deep relaxation and mental calmness.

6. To bring yourself out of the trance: Concentrate on moving your fingers or toes. Once you can move a finger or toe, flex your hands, move your arms, shake your head, i.e., reanimate your body; and get up and walk around for a few minutes.

And that is how you fall into trance. Having complete silence while you go into trance is optimal as any loud noises can wake you quite abruptly and that can have a negative effect on you. So be careful.

While you're in trance,  you or someone else can input suggestions in your head. Although be careful who you trust with your mind in this fragile state. It's best that you do it on your own or have it done by a qualified proffessional. If you do it on your own, dont improvise. Write down what you want to change about yourself then commit it to memory and focus on it while you're in trance. Results should be noticeable in a few days or even sooner, depending on what you programmed yourself with.
