This is a hypnosis session to let you experience your dream body, and you can use it right now. Just follow along with the sound of my voice. Close your eyes or defocus them, use your peripheral vision. Relax your face, relax your shoulders, relax your chest, and relax your stomach. Now take a deep breath in and slowly let it out. Take another deep breath in. And slowly let it out. Now bring your attention down to your stomach and relax all the stomach muscles. Feel that relaxation moving throughout your stomach area, melting any tension that you may find. Now feel that relaxation move up in your chest, relaxing the chest muscles. Feel your chest open and expand as that relaxation spreads throughout your chest area, deep into your lungs and into your heart. And feel it continue to move up in your shoulders, relaxing those shoulder muscles. Enjoy that feeling of just letting them go, letting them relax. And feel that relaxation move up your neck, up into your ears, and down into your jaw. Relax those jaw muscles completely and totally. And then feel that relaxation move over your lips, up into your nose, so that with each and every breath you take, you begin to relax even deeper than before. And now let that feeling of relaxation move up into your eyes and your eyelids, completely relaxing the eye muscles. Feel that relaxation wash over your eyes. Enjoy that feeling. And feel the relaxation move up into your eyebrows, up into your forehead, and down over your face, completely and totally relaxing those face muscles. Now enjoy this feeling of physical relaxation. Of mental quiet and emotional calm. And I want you to imagine it's a morning in the future, and you've just barely woken up. You haven't even opened your eyes yet, and you are now in your dream body. And before you even open your eyes, you can feel your body. Notice how it feels when you're in your dream body. And imagine yourself getting out of bed and how it feels to move in that body. As you move and step on the scale and look down and see the exact number that you want to see. And now you go and you get dressed and notice how the clothes fit, how they look, what you would like to wear. And now feel yourself moving through the day, noticing some of the people that you typically see and how it feels to interact with them in this body. Notice how that confidence feels, that sense of security and happiness when you live in this body. And now imagine that you go to the store to go clothes shopping in this body, and I want you to notice which clothes you want to wear, what it feels like to go to your size, to try them on. Enjoy that experience. And now imagine that after buying a bunch of new outfits for yourself that fit absolutely perfect, that you run into an old high school classmate, and you get to speak with them, and you get to notice how nice it feels, the excitement of running into them, because you're so happy and proud of your body and how you look and feel. And now you can imagine that your friend takes a picture of you and then sends it to you immediately. And you look at that picture and you're so happy with how you look in it. And it feels so nice to have this area of your life under control. And it's such a subtle and obvious thing to feel so good about yourself. So enjoy that feeling. Allow that feeling to seep into every cell of your being. So that your entire being is vibrating at this higher level of happiness, of health, and feeling all the feelings you get in this body. And now you can imagine that you go about your day, and I want you to notice the subtle things like moving, getting in and out of cars, walking, going up and down stairs in this body, to feel the strength and the power that goes along with it. To walk by and all of a sudden catch a reflection of yourself, and to notice how nice that feels. And notice your reaction when you see that reflection. Feel yourself smiling and feel that vibration within your body as you feel better and better about how you look and how you feel. And now you can imagine it's bedtime and you're getting ready to go back to sleep. And you can notice what it's like to get into bed with this body, to close your eyes, and to look forward to the next day when you get to live this way again. And now I'm going to count from 1 to 5, and when I say 5, you'll be fully awake, completely rested and refreshed. Number 1, slowly, easily returning to your full awareness once again. Number 2, each muscle, nerve in your body is loose, limp, and relaxed, and you feel wonderfully good. Number 3, from head to toe, you feel amazing in every way. On the number 4, you become aware of the room that you're in and the body that you're breathing into. And on the next number I count, eyes open, fully awake, completely rested and refreshed. Number 5, eyes open. Take a deep breath in and have a great day.
