Happy 2009! Ellie’s Favorite Five Self-hypnosis Resources
2009 snuck in quietly last night. No blowout of champaign, just a satisfying pop from the release of the cork and a toast among loved ones. It was most peaceful.
And now here is morning, cold and alive, sparkling with potential. I shall rest today (i.e. probably read up on some psych books I have been trying to catch up on) and tomorrow shines before me, as I continue my personal quest to evolve.
I am not alone in wanting to evolve (thank goodness for that). It can be a very busy time for hypnotists, helping people with their new year’s resolutions (if you are a hypnotist who does not spend half of December and January on travel). In my own way, I wanted to give you a taste of what self-hypnosis is all about, so I present you with another of Ellie’s Favorite Fives. The following links will lead you to other hypnotists or resources that offer ways in which you can learn self-hypnosis. All are free except for one.
Ellie’s Favorite Five Self-hypnosis Resources
- How to Perform Self Hypnosis through www.wikihow.com. I believe this was written by Conrad Raw (a short video is included) and it is very basic and straight to the point. It provides 10 easy steps.
- Self-Hypnosis Tutorial from Bog Cooper Transformations. This site offers a couple of approaches and resources including scripts that you can record yourself and play back to yourself, downloads, and a bevy of information.
- Self-hypnosis with mindtools.com. This site offers several suggestions in how to put yourself in a hypnotic state and as well as working with affirmations.
- How to Do Self-Hypnosis with ehow.com. This site offers twelve steps to a relaxing hypnotic state.
- The Secrets of Self-Hypnosis Masterclass with Adam Eason. Have you been inspired by the above links? Here is the daddy of all self-hypnosis programs. Now granted Adam is a friend of mine, but I have to say after previewing his masterclass on self-hypnosis, talk about all inclusive. It is an audio program (23 audios, I believe) and will cost you, but Adam is brilliant in his instruction. This is the sort of thing for those who are truly serious about learning how to harness the power of self-hypnosis. But you do not have to take my word for it. You can download two of the audios to preview it for free.
Still here? I appreciate your loyalty in reading all the way through, but what are you waiting for? Go try out at least on of the links and let me know what you think. Happy New Year!
P.S.
Adam did not pay me to promote his self-hypnosis program (none of these sites did). Just though you should know.

Hi Ellie
Having worked in healing and helping for 30 plus years I can only applaud those people who decide to do something about their lives and go and find the tools to help them to do just that.
In my opinion, hypnosis is one of the most effective ways of bringing about changes to every aspect of a person’s life - and that applies to self hypnosis as well as hypnotherapy.
Your list of favourite hypnosis resources are an excellent starting point for anyone.

This is very hard to do. It requires expert to do this properly. I had seen people going unconscious after attempting one…
Happy New Year!

Thank you all for your comments!
@Mike Golch - Happy New Year (I hope you like the upcoming Saturday post).
@Dave - Thanks for dropping in and glad you like the list.
@roentarre I have never heard or experienced anyone who has gone unconscious from using self-hypnosis (falling asleep maybe), so I am not sure what your frame of reference is for this comment (please feel free to elaborate). As for it being hard to do, it is like anything, it can take practice. Self-hypnosis is much like certain forms of meditation. For some it comes easily for others it takes awhile to master it. But, I will say that utilizing an experienced hypnotist can help you to fully understand the techniques and can help you know what it should feel like.
