The core elements of hypnosis are concentration, relaxation, imagination and suggestion. It is a process in which the hypnotist directly deals with the subconscious mind of the hypnotized person.

Under the guidance of the hypnotist, the subconscious mind is in an open state and will automatically associate with inner resources, including relaxed and happy emotional experiences, relaxed physical sensations and positive cognitions in the mind.

Depression is actually the result of patients constantly hypnotizing themselves with negative inducements between the outside world and themselves. Therefore, the key is to use hypnosis to replace the negative inducements with positive cognitions and experiences, and then the patient will escape from the depressive state.

Coming out is like undergoing surgery.

Yuan Jia brought Jiang Shiyun to the lounge and explained to her the principles and general process of hypnosis.

Jiang Shiyun trusts Yuan Jia very much, and the prerequisites for hypnosis have been met.

It is very important to establish a sense of trust. If you do not trust each other, the chance of successful induction is low.

Of course, there is also a method of reverse induction. For example, if someone firmly says, "I will never be hypnotized," an experienced hypnotist can use this to create some sober suggestions to achieve the hypnotic effect.

Because when a person's attention is focused on a certain point, the rest of the psychological defense must be empty.

This is not the first time Yuan Jia has undergone hypnotherapy. Through communication and understanding of Jiang Shiyun, he has already initially designed the next hypnosis plan.

The depth of hypnosis is generally divided into three levels.

The first level is mild hypnosis. The experiencer will feel relaxed physically and mentally, with gradually lowered psychological defenses. It is easy to say things that are usually unspeakable, and the self-awareness is relatively clear. They think they have not been hypnotized, but in fact they have already entered the state.

The second level is moderate hypnosis. The conscious and subconscious minds have built a bridge of communication, and the thinking is very active. At this time, the hypnotist can use instructions to deliver specific messages to the experiencer's level of consciousness, and even achieve the level of immersing himself in the experience again.

Effect.

The third level is deep hypnosis. At this time, the experiencer's self-awareness is not clear, and the subconscious mind is in charge. He is not even aware of what is happening in the outside world and is immersed in the subconscious world.

Jiang Shiyun had never tried hypnosis and was slightly nervous. Following Yuan Jia's instructions, she lay down on the inclined bench and rubbed her index finger with her thumb.

"Teacher Yuan, I'm worried that I can't enter the hypnotic state, I'm too awake..."

"It's okay. Hypnosis is not sleeping. You will be awake during the whole process."

Yuan Jia opened the curtains, the afternoon sun illuminated the lounge, and dust like specks of light floated in the air.

Looking at the sun and Yuan Jia who was preparing the manuscript, he had a light temperament, and Jiang Shiyun calmed down unconsciously.

"How do you feel now?" Yuanjia asked.

"Yeah, not bad."

"Then let's get started."

Yuan Jia moved a small stool and sat next to her. This distance allowed her to clearly hear his words, including his speaking speed and intonation.

"Adjust your breathing first...Okay...slowly close your eyes, feel your body, keep breathing at a comfortable rhythm, and the vitality-filled breath enters your body, and your body becomes lighter and lighter.

Getting lighter and lighter..."

Before the hypnosis started, Yuan Jia still used the conventional progressive relaxation method to help Jiang Shiyun relax her body and mind.

She had always been tense, and this step took a lot of time. Yuanjia was very patient and did not interrupt her chaotic thoughts with words. He just followed her movements and expressions to give feedback and constantly adjusted the rhythm of his instructions.

.

After entering a state of physical relaxation, Yuanjia began to guide the scene, allowing her tense spirit to relax in a deeper state.

Under hypnosis, her subconscious mind will accept this positive and relaxed state, which can very effectively relieve the long-term depression of self-awareness.

"Do you still remember the dream you just talked about? There is a house on the beach. Can you imagine that house and the beach?"

"able…"

"It's a beautiful day, the blue sky is cloudless. When you look at the sky, you can see endless blue, which extends until the end of your sight meets the sea level..."

Jiang Shiyun didn't speak, but from the slight movement of her eyelids and the gradually opening of her mouth, Yuan Jia knew that she had seen the scene in her imagination.

"On the sea, the waves appear and recede rhythmically, leaving behind white foam. Seagulls fly in the sky, or land on the rocks to bask in the sun. Have you seen the color of their mouths?"

"Gray...orange..."

"See the colors of the sand, sea, sky, and white clouds?"

"Um…"

"Listen now, the sound of seagulls and the waves crashing on the shore is so clear and calming. Now you walk barefoot on the beach and feel the feeling of the sand under your feet. Is it dry or wet?

"

"Wet..."

"Is it warm or cool? Pay attention to the feeling on the soles of your feet, the feeling on the top of your feet, and the feeling between your toes."

"Warm..."

"The sand is so soft that it wraps around your feet. If you wanted to, now you could bend down and touch the sand with your hands and fingers. What would that feel like?"

…

Under the guidance of Yuan Jia's meticulous pictures, Jiang Shiyun felt as if she were visiting the beach in person, seeing with her eyes, hearing with her ears, touching with her hands and feet, smelling with her nose, and even tasting the sea water.

Her physical and mental state has reached an unprecedented level of relaxation. Next, Yuanjia will begin to implant the first positive anchor, which is also called building a 'safe island'.

"Now, you have a unique beach of your own. You can find a comfortable place for yourself. You can lean against the coconut trees to enjoy the shade, or you can sit in the sun and watch the sea, watching the waves in the eternal rhythm.

Push it over and back, and watch the seagulls soar in the sky. This is a place full of vitality. This is an extremely safe place. It belongs to you, right?"

"Yes…"

"Here, you are calm, tranquil, free and relaxed. Any time you want to take a rest, you can come back here to recharge your mood, because this is your beach and you can come here easily.

Is it right."

"Yes…"

"This is a special gift that you will have forever. The more times you come, the better and better you will become in all aspects, healthier and stronger. You will feel full of vitality and your mood will become better and better."

Be positive, as long as you come here, you will laugh involuntarily."

Jiang Shiyun didn't speak, but it was obvious that there was a smile on her lips, and the 'safety island' was successfully implanted into her subconscious.

After implanting the 'safe island', Jiang Shiyun is equivalent to having an absolutely safe psychological field, which will be her last resort when dealing with any emotion.

Whenever an uncontrollable emotion occurs, the heart anchor is activated, and she can feel the calm, tranquility, freedom, and relaxation that the 'safe island' brings to her.

This is just the first level of hypnosis. Next, Yuanjia will start to ‘operate’, which is to remove the ‘negative triggers’

If negative incentives are not eliminated, they are like cancer cells growing in the mind, constantly eating away at positive emotions.

Different from the negative triggers he helped Wang Yalin remove last time, Wang Yalin suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder. Her negative triggers were very clear, like a tumor that could be removed.

But Jiang Shiyun has suffered from depression for many years, and there are so many negative triggers buried in her heart that it is difficult to find and remove them all.

Her disease cannot be cured by one or two hypnosis sessions, but through continuous 'hypnosis surgery', the negative incentives will become less and less until they no longer have a serious impact on her, and she will be able to live like a normal person.

, after all, even normal people always have a few 'negative events' buried in their hearts.

Yuan Jia increased his attention and carefully observed all the subtle movements and changes in Jiang Shiyun's expressions.
