A PROBLEM & SOLUTION-FINDING PROCESS

2002 Revision. uploaded 18.8.2005

 

I use this script, after an induction, to seek out imprints that are causing a problem or hindering its solution. It doesn't require that the client or therapist know the source of the problem at a conscious level, or that they have to actively participate in regression or dialogue about the problem. Many times, this is all that's needed to deal with the initiating imprint of an issue. After using it, the therapist can determine, whether actual regression or parts therapy is required for further healing.

 

Now, without falling asleep…

you're letting your own mind easily put you into

this wonderful, relaxed and receptive state,,,

You're doing this by being willing to respond to just a few of my suggestions,,,

And, so, just as easily,

your own mind will find solutions to the problem, for which you've come to me…

 

All of the levels and various aspects of your deeper mind

will continue to cooperate powerfully with everything I suggest to you,,,

making true everything I say…

You can be assured that your mind will accept what's right for you,,,

and will reject anything that seems inappropriate for you…

And, most importantly, it will solve your problem …

 

You've come to me because _____ (the presenting problem) _____,,,

You no doubt realize that this (these) is (are) merely a symptom(s)

of something else that's going on…

It is this deeper problem that your Higher Consciousness, the Wise One,

the unconscious mind, the subconscious self,

or any other aspects of your mind,

can locate,,,

and can solve …

It should, therefore, give you a wonderful feeling of satisfaction

to realize that the various levels and facets of your own mind

are capable of working out a solution to your problem,

in ways that will be very pleasing to you…

 

And, even after you emerge from this hypnotic state,

you'll find that the subconscious levels of your mind

will continue to bring about very pleasant changes,,,

resolving that problem in easy ways…

For your deeper mind can handle that task quite easily,

without any conscious effort on your part…

So, while you're in this trance-like state, today,,,

and after the session, if it's necessary,,,

I'd like to have your mind become interested

in everything you can do to use

your own body knowledge,,,

your own mental knowledge,,,

your own psychic knowledge,,,

or any other kind of knowledge you have,,,

to locate either what's causing that basic problem,,,

or is blocking it from being resolved…

And then, its task will be to work out a solution to that problem...

So we'll allow your deeper self, that wise part of you,

to take whatever time it needs

to get the problem resolved perfectly,,,

and permanently…

 

And, as your mind begins to do that searching and resolving task,,,

I'd like you to feel comfortable enough

to move into an even deeper state of hypnotic relaxation,

becoming totally focused, and entranced, without going to sleep,,,

in order that our task can be done as quickly and thoroughly, as possible…

Just continue to go into whatever level of hypnotic trance is necessary

for us to do our job together,,,

in order for you to (attain your goal of/desire to) (be released from) (become)________,,,

And to be able to do so easily, pleasantly and quickly…

 

Pause for a while. Don't be afraid of silence.

Your mind is so amazingly capable,

that it's impossible to mention all of the abilities you use, continuously…

the ability to breathe, without conscious effort,,,

the ability to keep your blood circulating, throughout your entire system,,,

the ability to digest food easily, feeding all of your cells

with the nutrients they need for good health…

All of the many amazing activities your body carries on, daily,

to function properly, so that you stay alive,,,

are carried on by your subconscious self…

Yet, if, for any reason, your body isn't doing the best for you,,,

your deeper mind has the capacity to change that,,,

if it's necessary…

It can assist your body to do a better job,

in order for you to (attain your goal of) (be released from) (become) _______…

For, your body's natural state is to be healthy…

It's your right to have a healthy body…

 

Pause...

 

Also, there's your ability to walk and talk, automatically,,,

and to do millions of other things you've learned to do since you were born…

All of the things you had to learn, first, at a conscious level,

are now being taken care of, automatically,

by various layers, levels, aspects or dimensions

of your own subconscious mind…

Your deeper self handles all of this, without conscious effort…

In the same way, your subconscious mind

has accepted all of the habits that you've learned, as well,,,

and your reasons for developing them…

Yet, your deeper mind knows how to change any habit,

any reason, or any response,

if it's necessary…

It can assist you to (attain your goal of) (be released from)(become ______________...

For your mind's natural state is to be healthy…

It's your right to have a healthy mind…

 

Pause... 

 

Your deeper Self ( your Guide, your Higher Consciousness, the Holy Spirit),

the wise part of you,

whatever you prefer to call it,

nurtures you, cares for you and educates you

at every level of your existence

during this incredible life journey you're experiencing…

Your subconscious self has accepted the attitudes and beliefs

that you've developed about yourself, the world and others,

consciously or unconsciously,,,

And those attitudes and beliefs have helped

to create the person that you've become…

Yet, your deeper mind knows how any of those beliefs and attitudes

can be changed,

if it's necessary…

It can assist you to (attain your goal of) (be released from) (become) _______…

F or your spirit's natural state is to be healthy…

It's your right to be a healthy spirit…

 

Pause...

 

It's the truth that your subconscious mind,

or its higher consciousness,

knows everything about you,

from the time you first came into existence…

It knows everything that's ever happened to you,,,

or that you've heard, or seen, or learned…

Every belief you've taken as your own,,,

Everything your parents wanted you to know,,,

and believe…

Everything your relatives, community and culture wanted you to know,,,

and believe…

 

Everything your teachers felt you should know,,,

and believe…

Everything your peers felt you should know,,,

and believe…

Everything said, or implied, by parents, siblings, relatives, teachers and peers

all through your growing up,,,

and anything that you've experienced in your existence,,,

has formed imprints on your mind,,,

And these imprints, or impressions, remain as they are

unless you decide they should be, and can be, changed…

Imprints of this life, and of any previous existence,

are there in your subconscious self,,,

And these influence you, even today…

(Add any you are aware of as dominating the client's life.)

 

Some imprints are still helpful to you,,,

Some of them are no longer helpful to you,,,

You and I don't have to know what they are, consciously,,,

Your deeper mind, that wise part of you, knows the difference…

And that deeper self can make any changes that will be helpful to you,,,

in (obtaining your goal of) (releasing you from) (becoming)_________…

(Add any of client's specific goals, dreams, or healing requirements.)

 

Now, just as regularly and powerfully

as the unconscious, subconscious, higher self,

or any other aspects of your inner being,

are able to run all of the activities of your body and mind,,,

some level, aspect or dimension of your deeper self

understands just where your real problem lies,,,

and can solve it …

For once you give your inner mind the opportunity

to seek out where your problem is,

it uses its own ways of working out the solution to that problem,,,

getting it resolved,,,

perfectly,,,

and permanently,,,

in ways that will please you…

 

And, the great thing about it is,

that the various levels and aspects of your mind can do that, right now,

without any conscious effort from you…

Your own deeper mind can resolve the problem…

For, whether or not you realize it at a conscious level,

the Higher Consciousness, that wise part of your mind, understands it…

And it understands it from a more mature point of view,

or a more courageous point of view,

or a more confident point of view,

than you might have had when that imprint, or group of imprints,

first was made upon your mind

by whatever you saw, experienced, received, understood and believed,,,

no matter what lifetime it was in…

And whatever imprints, or impressions, have been made upon your mind,

which caused the problem that resulted in ( the presenting problem ),, ,

they can be reinterpreted for the more adult you,,,

who is now in this time,,,

and in this particular phase of your life journey,,,

in which you now want _________ client's goal _________…

Your deeper mind, that subconscious self, that wise part of you,

has access to a lot of information

that, at a conscious level, you may be unaware of…

And your mind can review it all,,,

completely…

And it can release you from that problem,,,

totally,,,

and forever…

If this is so, a finger of your right/left hand will rise,

to indicate your mind's agreement with this…

(Don't rush the time here; wait a couple of minutes, and be watchful. Sometimes the client may be so deep that they don't want to move any part of their body; or they may move a different finger, or even a foot, because it seems easier to do. They may move a part of a limb very slightly, or signal later, so be observant. If there is no response , then consider going into a regression script; or do Parts Therapy. For instance, when working with smokers, stop and talk with the Smoker Self to check how seriously that part wants to quit, and what it needs in order to quit. Make a contract for when the last cigarette will be smoked. If time is an issue , then simply complete this script, using the lack of response as a clue to how you will conduct your next session with the client.)

 

Very good…

Now, whether or not you're aware of it, at a conscious level,

your mind is cooperating,,,

and it's working out the solution to that problem

in ways that will be pleasing to you…

For your own mind is able to sift through the imprints

of secrets, feelings, experiences, impressions, thoughts, habits,

beliefs, ideas, and emotions

from your entire existence…

And it can examine them,,,

looking at them from a different perspective,

than when you first received and recorded them…

Also, your mind is fully capable

of releasing any blocks to you changing, and (attaining/becoming) ___ goal _____…

And it will work out a pleasant solution to your problem,,,

permanently…

 

Now, a truly amazing thing about all of this is that

the deeper, various aspects of your mind

can continue to review, examine and explore

all of the information in your mind and body…

And your deeper self can work out solutions to problems,

even after you emerge from the hypnotic state…

So, if there's still work to do by the time this session is over,

your subconscious self will continue with it, until the solution is found…

And, by the time you come back to me for your next appointment,

your mind already can have a pleasant solution all worked out,

in a way that easily enables you to eliminate that problem,,,

and to (meet your goal of) (release you from) (become) _________,

in an easy, pleasant way…

 

You're learning wonderful things about yourself…

because you've become a mature person,,,

You're an adult, who is able to have problems solved in a mature way…

This is happening now…

Your confidence level is rising,,,

You're feeling more powerful,,,

And, as a result, it makes you very happy…

 

If you haven't used it before, go to the post-hypnotic signal of GREEN (in this volume).

 

If there is time, within the session, an excellent script for following this is, “Empowerment at the Center” or “Loving Yourself”.
( GREAT ESCAPES Vol. II)

I'd like to make a note here of appreciation for the work of one of my teachers, Dr. Arthur Winkler, of St. John's University, (now deceased ) for his exceptional ability in scripting, and his success in encouraging the subconscious/unconscious self to go to the problem and resolve it without the necessity of regression work. As a result of continually seeking the most powerful and positive wording of suggestions, I am an eternal editor. This revision is a result of that penchant.
