00:00:00.800 --> 00:00:10.439

3
00:00:25.120 --> 00:00:38.119
hypnosis for ADHD, focus and calming. Now, this is not

4
00:00:38.159 --> 00:00:46.759

00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:54.759

00:00:54.799 --> 00:01:00.359

00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:16.439
So welcome. This is I've created this to help you

8
00:01:17.359 --> 00:01:26.400
to improve focus and calm your mind. Now, the one

9
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:32.519
thing I've been a little bit concerned about before starting

10
00:01:32.640 --> 00:01:40.319
this is the fact that I clearly talk quite quietly

11
00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:56.400
and quite slowly. So I hope that's okay. My natural

12
00:01:56.599 --> 00:02:01.000
speaking volved must Yeah, I generally don't speak loudly, and

13
00:02:01.640 --> 00:02:10.560
I don't I'm not I don't talk quickly generally sometimes,

14
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:16.639
but you know, generally, you know, just this is my

15
00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:26.400
color speed of talking. S understand that well. I hope

16
00:02:26.479 --> 00:02:39.599
that it's not frustrating, that's all. And you may be

17
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:43.800
wondering what's going to happen, What am I going to

18
00:02:43.879 --> 00:02:55.759
say next? What I would say is maybe wrap your

19
00:02:56.120 --> 00:03:02.240
mind around the idea of hypnosis. What do you think

20
00:03:02.280 --> 00:03:12.360
it is or do you believe hypnosis is maybe you've

21
00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:19.800
seen hypnosis on television or on YouTube where they're doing

22
00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:25.599
stage hypnosis and getting people to forget their names or

23
00:03:26.360 --> 00:03:30.919
be stuck on the floor or think that they're aliens

24
00:03:31.080 --> 00:03:36.719
and you know, you know whatever, and the audience are laughing,

25
00:03:37.039 --> 00:03:45.639
and or maybe we've seen videos of people being hypnotized

26
00:03:45.759 --> 00:03:58.360
on street where their hands are stuck together and they're

27
00:03:58.400 --> 00:04:06.280
unable to move, or maybe they can't you know, they're

28
00:04:06.280 --> 00:04:09.840
giving a bunch of numbers to say or count their

29
00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:14.879
fingers one, two, three, four, five, but some reason they

30
00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:19.920
can only counter four, like where's the finger gone? Things

31
00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:28.560
like that, which can be a bit perplexing. See, I

32
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:36.839
don't do that kind of stuff. This is more for

33
00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:49.439
hopefully therapeutic reasons and therapeutic benefits to those of you

34
00:04:50.079 --> 00:05:05.279
that are listening. And some hypnosis can be very quick.

35
00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:17.120
Sun's very slow. Now. I could do the quick hypnosis,

36
00:05:17.160 --> 00:05:22.839
but it wouldn't really, it wouldn't fit me as it were,

37
00:05:25.480 --> 00:05:32.399
because I don't I don't do anything quickly really, or

38
00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:45.959
not most things. But it hasn't always been this way,

39
00:05:47.360 --> 00:05:57.319
and I learned to slow down. There's been times when

40
00:05:57.360 --> 00:06:08.040
I've been very, very unfocused and very overactive, let's say,

41
00:06:09.000 --> 00:06:25.879
in the past, and reactive also. And what I did

42
00:06:26.040 --> 00:06:37.600
is I started to learn meditation, mindfulness, hypnosis nearly thirty

43
00:06:37.959 --> 00:06:44.279
BlimE year, nearly twenty eight years ago, I was learning

44
00:06:44.480 --> 00:06:53.959
trying to learn hypnosis. Yeah, nineteen ninety eight, I was

45
00:06:54.000 --> 00:07:01.199
trying to learn meditation even earlier than that, ninety four.

46
00:07:08.120 --> 00:07:20.199
Ways to calm your mind. And anything that helps, I

47
00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:42.439
think is welcome. Anything that helps is a positive. So

48
00:07:42.519 --> 00:07:46.879
I'd like you to find a quiet, comfortable place where

49
00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:54.959
you won't be disturbed, and you can settle into a

50
00:07:54.959 --> 00:08:07.639
cozy position and allow your body to relax, whether it's

51
00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:11.120
lying down or sitting in a comfortable chair that supports

52
00:08:11.160 --> 00:08:18.360
your body, whether you're listening during the day of bedtime,

53
00:08:19.160 --> 00:08:25.279
this session will guide you towards better concentration and inner

54
00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:35.799
peace because when you listen to me, you listen to

55
00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:47.960
my voice almost it's like an activation to your mind

56
00:08:48.480 --> 00:09:04.519
to slow down and continue to slow down. It's almost

57
00:09:04.600 --> 00:09:09.120
like having a spring clean in a way. If you

58
00:09:09.159 --> 00:09:14.320
imagine your mind a big room with loads of massive windows,

59
00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:18.120
and you open those windows and it's a windy day,

60
00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:26.720
and that wind's just blowing through, blowing everything away. And

61
00:09:26.799 --> 00:09:30.320
maybe that room is full of things to think about,

62
00:09:30.519 --> 00:09:36.440
all written on pieces of paper, thousands, hundreds of thousands

63
00:09:36.440 --> 00:09:40.200
of pieces of paper, all piled up, but now they're

64
00:09:40.240 --> 00:09:44.720
being blown around. In fact, they're being blown out of

65
00:09:44.759 --> 00:09:50.720
the window through the wind, blowing everything out of the window,

66
00:09:52.240 --> 00:10:05.159
eventually leaving that room bear and empty, peaceful and calm.

67
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:12.279
So there's breath work, guided imagery and positive affirmations to

68
00:10:12.399 --> 00:10:19.840
help ease restlessness and encourage mental clarity. And all you

69
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:23.559
need to do is listen to my voice and give

70
00:10:23.600 --> 00:10:30.519
yourself permission to relax completely. As we begin this journey

71
00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:38.799
of focus and calm, you can just notice your breathing.

72
00:10:39.720 --> 00:10:43.840
Perhaps take a deep, brief breath rather through your nose

73
00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:51.840
and slowly exhal through your mouth, and feel your eyes

74
00:10:51.960 --> 00:10:57.720
softly closing as you begin to turn your attention inward.

75
00:11:00.600 --> 00:11:03.720
As you allow your body to sink into the surface

76
00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:10.759
beneath you, you can notice how it fully supports your weight,

77
00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:17.360
so that you can just let go of any need

78
00:11:17.399 --> 00:11:25.919
to hold yourself up and take another gentle breath in

79
00:11:27.879 --> 00:11:49.080
and exhale slowly. And this is your time to let go,

80
00:11:51.759 --> 00:11:57.080
to sent to yourself and to find calm in this

81
00:11:57.320 --> 00:12:06.639
present moment now, simply notice your breathing as it flows naturally.

82
00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:16.679
Don't worry about changing it. You can just observe the

83
00:12:16.799 --> 00:12:23.799
cool air as you inhale, and the warm air as

84
00:12:23.840 --> 00:12:35.720
you exil. With each soft breath out, imagine releasing any

85
00:12:35.840 --> 00:12:51.000
tension or over stimulated energy, breathing out any distractions or stress,

86
00:12:53.120 --> 00:13:03.240
letting them drift away with your breath. And if your

87
00:13:03.320 --> 00:13:07.600
mind is busy, that's okay. Just keep returning your focus

88
00:13:08.440 --> 00:13:12.919
to the breath, as if each excel carries away a

89
00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:19.320
little more of the day's noise. You can also be

90
00:13:19.440 --> 00:13:24.279
reminded of that big room of the windows open and

91
00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:32.320
the wind blowing through, blowing everything out, calm and everything down.

92
00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:39.960
Bringing your attention to the top of your head, imagine

93
00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:46.519
a warm, gentle light glowing there, carrying a feeling of

94
00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:54.080
relaxation and calm. As you focus on this warm light,

95
00:13:54.480 --> 00:14:01.240
allow it to begin flowing down slowly over your forehead,

96
00:14:04.320 --> 00:14:13.600
softening any tension, and feel it melt away any tightness

97
00:14:13.759 --> 00:14:22.240
around your eyes and let it warm and relax the

98
00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:32.159
tiny muscles there. As the light soothes your temples and

99
00:14:32.200 --> 00:14:41.840
your cheeks, and it unhooks your jaw, you might let

100
00:14:42.080 --> 00:14:48.240
your lips part slightly as your jaw muscles are loosen.

101
00:14:51.840 --> 00:15:04.840
Now the soft south thing light moves into your neck

102
00:15:05.000 --> 00:15:20.399
and shoulders, melting away any tightness or heaviness you've been carrying.

103
00:15:23.399 --> 00:15:30.000
With each breath, you let your shoulders drop a little more,

104
00:15:30.919 --> 00:15:40.879
releasing the weight of the day, and as you allow

105
00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:52.600
this wave of relaxation to continue flowing gently down your body,

106
00:15:53.360 --> 00:15:58.879
it spreads to your shoulders, through your arms, all the

107
00:15:58.919 --> 00:16:06.519
way to your head, hands, and fingertips, feeling a pleasant

108
00:16:06.679 --> 00:16:14.519
warm and heaviness in your arms as they relax completely.

109
00:16:19.360 --> 00:16:24.759
And the light now softens your chest and your upper back,

110
00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:37.240
bringing calm and ease as it radiates through your abdomen,

111
00:16:39.919 --> 00:16:48.720
relaxing your stomach as you soften your lower back and hips,

112
00:16:50.960 --> 00:17:01.799
and the warm relaxation travels down each leg, through your thighs,

113
00:17:04.920 --> 00:17:13.599
your knees, into your calves and feeling it moving into

114
00:17:13.640 --> 00:17:24.079
your ankles, your feet, and all the way down to

115
00:17:24.160 --> 00:17:34.680
the tips of your toes. And with every breath, your

116
00:17:34.839 --> 00:17:43.680
entire body grows more comfortable and ground it and you

117
00:17:43.799 --> 00:17:51.440
might even imagine roots extending from your body into the earth,

118
00:17:53.960 --> 00:18:08.680
anchoring you in safety and peace, connecting you to the

119
00:18:08.839 --> 00:18:20.160
healing earth as from the top of your head to

120
00:18:20.279 --> 00:18:28.640
the dips of your toes, a tranquil, heavy calm. It's

121
00:18:28.799 --> 00:18:46.119
setting in and you become more and more at peace. Now,

122
00:18:48.519 --> 00:18:56.559
let's deepen this relaxation with your breath and take a slow,

123
00:18:58.240 --> 00:19:13.240
deep in hell to count four one two, three four.

124
00:19:16.680 --> 00:19:26.559
Now hold that breath for a moment one two and

125
00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:38.200
exhil gently to the count of six one two, three, four,

126
00:19:39.960 --> 00:19:53.680
five six. Then notice your body relaxing even more deeply

127
00:19:57.160 --> 00:20:10.240
as you breathe in this steady rhythm again, breathing one two,

128
00:20:10.759 --> 00:20:20.119
three four, fill in your lungs with soothing air, holding

129
00:20:20.480 --> 00:20:32.359
just for a second, and breathe out one two, three, four,

130
00:20:34.039 --> 00:20:51.279
five six, allowing any remaining tightness to melt away. And

131
00:20:51.400 --> 00:20:59.240
you can continue this cycle at your own pace, letting

132
00:20:59.400 --> 00:21:07.960
the count anchor your attention. And if your mind starts

133
00:21:08.079 --> 00:21:15.279
to wonder, that's all right, just simply bring your focus

134
00:21:15.599 --> 00:21:26.759
back to the gentle counting and breath. And each breath

135
00:21:26.880 --> 00:21:35.440
is an opportunity to begin again to focus calmly and

136
00:21:35.599 --> 00:21:43.759
feel yourself drifting deeper into relaxation as you're breathing finds

137
00:21:43.839 --> 00:21:57.400
a slow, easy rhythm. Now imagine yourself in a place

138
00:21:57.519 --> 00:22:05.400
that feels very peaceful and safe fear, a place where

139
00:22:05.480 --> 00:22:16.640
you can concentrate easily. Perhaps you find yourself in a quiet,

140
00:22:19.119 --> 00:22:28.480
sunny forest with soft golden light filters through the leaves

141
00:22:28.799 --> 00:22:34.000
of the tall trees. The air is fresh and cool

142
00:22:34.359 --> 00:22:43.039
on your skin, and you hear a gentle breeze rustling

143
00:22:43.240 --> 00:22:47.599
the leaves above, and maybe the distant sound of a

144
00:22:47.799 --> 00:23:04.079
small stream flowing calmly in the distance, and birds are

145
00:23:04.160 --> 00:23:09.599
singing softly in the trees. Their melodies bring in a

146
00:23:09.720 --> 00:23:18.319
sense of comfort and tranquility. As you take a moment

147
00:23:18.519 --> 00:23:27.000
to absorb this seed, the soft colors of nature, the

148
00:23:27.119 --> 00:23:33.920
subtle sense of earth and wood, and the feeding of

149
00:23:34.000 --> 00:23:44.759
a calm world around you, and everything is still in

150
00:23:45.119 --> 00:24:00.799
serene and you feel completely at ease. Now begin to

151
00:24:00.960 --> 00:24:06.920
walk slowly along a path in this forest, and with

152
00:24:07.039 --> 00:24:12.359
each step you take, just notice how your body feels

153
00:24:12.680 --> 00:24:23.200
lighter as you're walking on soft supported ground. Each footstep

154
00:24:23.359 --> 00:24:28.880
brings you closer to a place of deep focus and clarity.

155
00:24:31.319 --> 00:24:40.440
And there's no rush. You're simply wandering peacefully step by step,

156
00:24:41.720 --> 00:24:48.160
and with each movement you can fill your mind, becoming clearer,

157
00:24:52.359 --> 00:24:55.680
and after a short while, you come to a small

158
00:24:57.000 --> 00:25:06.079
clearing among the trees, and the ground there is covered

159
00:25:06.160 --> 00:25:14.680
in soft grass and moss, and you desire to sit

160
00:25:14.920 --> 00:25:21.559
down or perhaps lie down on this comfortable green carpet

161
00:25:25.160 --> 00:25:30.359
as you feel the solid earth supporting you beneath the

162
00:25:30.400 --> 00:25:40.480
softness of the grass. And this clearing is your own

163
00:25:40.799 --> 00:25:49.599
safe space, a place where you feel perfectly calm, focused

164
00:25:49.960 --> 00:25:56.640
and at home. And then this space, your thoughts and

165
00:25:56.759 --> 00:26:06.599
feelings are completely okay, and you can arise and flow

166
00:26:06.720 --> 00:26:17.240
freely without any judgment or pressure because you are just

167
00:26:17.680 --> 00:26:36.839
simply present, relaxed, and open. Now, as you sit quietly

168
00:26:37.079 --> 00:26:44.839
in your safe space, you notice a small wildflower nearby,

169
00:26:47.359 --> 00:26:59.119
growing amidst the grass. Now, take a moment to gently

170
00:26:59.440 --> 00:27:09.039
focus on this single flower. You can see its color,

171
00:27:11.759 --> 00:27:20.799
perhaps a soft blue or a bright yellow, and notice

172
00:27:21.240 --> 00:27:32.359
the delicate shape of its petals, and watch as it

173
00:27:32.519 --> 00:27:44.400
sways ever so slightly with the breeze. As you allow

174
00:27:44.720 --> 00:27:53.960
this one simple, beautiful thing to hold your attention for

175
00:27:53.960 --> 00:28:06.599
a while. And if other thoughts, memories, or feelings float

176
00:28:06.759 --> 00:28:15.160
into your mind, that's all right. You can just acknowledge them,

177
00:28:15.880 --> 00:28:22.480
let them be for a moment, and then gently guide

178
00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:34.079
your focus back to that flower and just as you

179
00:28:34.200 --> 00:28:41.839
returned your focus to your breathing earlier, now you return

180
00:28:41.920 --> 00:28:52.880
it to observe in the details of this flower, and

181
00:28:53.000 --> 00:28:56.279
you can use it as an anchor for your mind,

182
00:28:59.559 --> 00:29:03.799
a single goal point that brings you back to the

183
00:29:03.839 --> 00:29:12.799
present whenever your attention wanders. You may find that the

184
00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:18.319
longer you gaze at the flower, the more still and

185
00:29:18.599 --> 00:29:30.000
focus your mind becomes. And even in this peaceful place,

186
00:29:33.039 --> 00:29:43.079
it's natural the thoughts to arise now and then, and

187
00:29:43.160 --> 00:29:49.359
you might suddenly remember something you have to do later on,

188
00:29:52.319 --> 00:29:56.400
or perhaps your mind might try to distract you with

189
00:29:57.359 --> 00:30:12.960
rand ideas. And whenever a thought pops up, just imagine

190
00:30:13.000 --> 00:30:18.160
it as a fluffy white cloud drifting through the sky

191
00:30:19.720 --> 00:30:30.400
of your mind. And notice the thought cloud floating in

192
00:30:31.880 --> 00:30:41.599
and simply watch it drift by overhead. And you don't

193
00:30:41.759 --> 00:30:53.759
need to chase after it or engage with it. You

194
00:30:53.839 --> 00:30:58.759
can just observe it curiously for a moment and then

195
00:30:59.359 --> 00:31:08.920
let it go on its way. With each thought that

196
00:31:09.119 --> 00:31:22.000
comes can be treated disgently recognized, then allowed to pass,

197
00:31:24.759 --> 00:31:31.240
allowed to just let them go, because you see that

198
00:31:31.400 --> 00:31:38.759
those clouds of thought gradually floating away out of sight,

199
00:31:42.119 --> 00:31:52.079
moving away, far away, But you remain here, calm and

200
00:31:52.240 --> 00:32:03.240
grounded while her thoughts come and go. It feels good

201
00:32:03.319 --> 00:32:08.960
to realize that you can let your thought pass by

202
00:32:10.200 --> 00:32:18.599
without getting caught in them. You can just observe them

203
00:32:19.000 --> 00:32:27.279
coming and going. Now, take a slow breath in, and

204
00:32:27.599 --> 00:32:37.000
as you exhale, feel the calmness growing inside you. You

205
00:32:37.079 --> 00:32:45.839
are becoming an even more peaceful observer of your own mind.

206
00:32:46.640 --> 00:32:56.519
And each breath deepens your connection to this moment, ground

207
00:32:56.759 --> 00:33:03.119
in you in the here and now. As you realize

208
00:33:03.240 --> 00:33:10.680
that you are not your thoughts. You are the steady,

209
00:33:12.039 --> 00:33:22.759
quiet presence that watches those thoughts. And there's a big

210
00:33:23.240 --> 00:33:31.480
quiet part of you that is always centered and aware,

211
00:33:35.039 --> 00:33:38.920
and no matter what thoughts or feelings come and go,

212
00:33:41.839 --> 00:33:50.680
rest in that awareness for a few moments, breatheing slowly

213
00:33:51.119 --> 00:34:18.800
and being present. Now, imagine a wave of clarity washing

214
00:34:18.920 --> 00:34:24.880
over you from head to toe, like a soothing ripple

215
00:34:24.960 --> 00:34:34.199
of water through your mind and in your mind's eye.

216
00:34:34.719 --> 00:34:42.920
Visualize that there is a clear, still lake in the

217
00:34:42.960 --> 00:34:51.280
middle of this forest clearing, and this lake represents your mind.

218
00:34:54.880 --> 00:35:01.199
And see how calm and glassy the water is as

219
00:35:01.199 --> 00:35:11.960
it reflects the sky, and if any remained in rapports

220
00:35:12.000 --> 00:35:20.079
of disturbances appear on the surface, they are gently settling

221
00:35:20.360 --> 00:35:33.159
down now as the water becomes completely smooth and tranquil.

222
00:35:38.199 --> 00:35:59.239
Your mind is just like that lake, clear, still and serene.

223
00:36:00.039 --> 00:36:04.679
Do you feel a quiet confidence as you gaze at

224
00:36:04.719 --> 00:36:16.239
this lake, knowing that it symbolizes your own focused mind?

225
00:36:22.079 --> 00:36:26.800
And in this moment, you are calm, You are focused,

226
00:36:26.920 --> 00:36:33.199
and you are capable of directing your attention where you

227
00:36:33.320 --> 00:36:40.360
wanted to go, enjoying this feeling of mental stillness and strength.

228
00:36:49.960 --> 00:36:59.480
Now your body and mind are now deeply relaxed, and

229
00:36:59.559 --> 00:37:08.639
you've a wonderful inner calm. And in this state, Let's

230
00:37:09.400 --> 00:37:14.719
introduce some positive thoughts and ideas to help you build

231
00:37:15.800 --> 00:37:28.400
even stronger focus and self confidence. And you can repeat

232
00:37:28.519 --> 00:37:37.559
these affirmations silently in your head, or simply just listen

233
00:37:37.639 --> 00:37:44.760
to them and allow them to sink in, deeply, sink in,

234
00:37:46.639 --> 00:37:53.800
knowing that each affirmation is true for you. And you

235
00:37:54.000 --> 00:38:00.760
may even imagine the words gently echoing in that calm

236
00:38:01.119 --> 00:38:25.679
lake of your mind. I am calm, I am focused,

237
00:38:37.199 --> 00:39:02.239
I am at peace. I have the power to guide

238
00:39:02.360 --> 00:39:26.519
my thoughts and find clarity. Each time my mind wanders,

239
00:39:27.079 --> 00:39:52.719
I bring my attention back gently and without judgment. I

240
00:39:52.960 --> 00:40:00.440
trust my mind, and now I know that I can

241
00:40:00.559 --> 00:40:20.519
focus when I need to. And as you absorb these

242
00:40:20.679 --> 00:40:29.639
ideas and notice how they make you feel, you might

243
00:40:29.880 --> 00:40:42.719
feel a lightness or warm in your chest. Issue you

244
00:40:42.800 --> 00:41:08.039
affirm your ability to relax deeply and concentrate, and you

245
00:41:08.280 --> 00:41:19.280
can direct your mind. You can stay calm, and every

246
00:41:19.400 --> 00:41:33.280
time you practice this focus, it will get easier because

247
00:41:33.480 --> 00:41:38.679
you are training your brain to work with you and

248
00:41:38.719 --> 00:41:49.760
you're already doing so well. And you can let a

249
00:41:49.960 --> 00:41:57.360
sense of confidence and self trust grow within you with

250
00:41:57.719 --> 00:42:28.480
every affirmation you accept. Now, in this peaceful state, just

251
00:42:28.599 --> 00:42:33.800
allow yourself to reflect on the unique qualities of your mind.

252
00:42:37.800 --> 00:42:45.360
Because you may have ADHD and you know it can

253
00:42:45.400 --> 00:42:54.039
bring challenges like distractability or restlessness. But these are just

254
00:42:54.400 --> 00:43:04.199
one side of the story. And on the other side,

255
00:43:04.760 --> 00:43:14.519
there are so many strengths and gifts that come with ADHD,

256
00:43:15.679 --> 00:43:20.000
and you can take a moment to acknowledge those positive

257
00:43:20.119 --> 00:43:30.440
traits in yourself. For instance, the same active mind that

258
00:43:30.599 --> 00:43:44.360
sometimes wanders off is also incredibly imaginative and creative, and

259
00:43:44.519 --> 00:43:57.199
you have a natural curiosity about the world, always noticing

260
00:43:57.400 --> 00:44:09.239
things others might miss. Yes, you might even say that

261
00:44:09.360 --> 00:44:19.000
your mind loves to explore, and that curiosity is a

262
00:44:19.199 --> 00:44:39.239
wonderful strength. As you think about your energy and enthusiasm

263
00:44:39.440 --> 00:44:50.440
that lively spark inside you, and that energy can be

264
00:44:50.679 --> 00:44:59.880
channeled into passion and productivity, fueling you to pursue things

265
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:12.239
things that you care about with great zest. And consider

266
00:45:12.320 --> 00:45:18.119
your ability to intensely focus on something that you love

267
00:45:19.239 --> 00:45:26.599
or find interesting. Perhaps you've noticed how you can get

268
00:45:26.639 --> 00:45:35.480
super absorbed in a hobby or a game for hours,

269
00:45:37.840 --> 00:45:44.440
and that is also sometimes called hyper focus, and it's

270
00:45:44.599 --> 00:45:50.199
like a superpower of ADHD that lets you dive deeply

271
00:45:50.719 --> 00:46:02.119
into what truly matters to you, and not everyone can

272
00:46:02.280 --> 00:46:07.960
concentrate as powerfully as you can when you're really interested.

273
00:46:10.440 --> 00:46:16.280
Your mind can also think outside the box, coming up

274
00:46:16.320 --> 00:46:23.199
with ideas and solutions from unique angles that others might

275
00:46:23.280 --> 00:46:34.559
not see. And this innovative thinking sets you apart from

276
00:46:34.599 --> 00:46:44.199
a special advantage that you possess. You can take pride

277
00:46:44.239 --> 00:46:52.440
in these qualities. You know your creativity, your curiosity, your

278
00:46:52.519 --> 00:46:59.559
capacity for hyper focus, your dynamic energy, and much more,

279
00:47:04.800 --> 00:47:09.960
because these traits are part of what makes you who

280
00:47:10.440 --> 00:47:18.079
you are and they can help you achieve great things,

281
00:47:23.800 --> 00:47:32.719
even traits that seem challenging have an upside. Being impulsive

282
00:47:33.719 --> 00:47:45.440
can also mean being spontaneous and brave, and being sensitive

283
00:47:45.639 --> 00:47:57.599
means you're empathic and feel things deeply. You might also

284
00:47:57.800 --> 00:48:06.480
notice that you're very adventurous and resilient and despite difficulties,

285
00:48:07.079 --> 00:48:18.079
you keep going and you keep adapting, and all of

286
00:48:18.280 --> 00:48:28.440
those strengths woven into the fabric of ADHD and into you.

287
00:48:31.400 --> 00:48:39.159
Let you appreciate yourself, Allow yourself to feel a sense

288
00:48:39.239 --> 00:48:45.920
of appreciation for your new, unique mind and its talents

289
00:48:50.039 --> 00:48:57.559
because you're not broken at all. You are brilliantly you

290
00:49:01.679 --> 00:49:07.000
in your own way, with a brain that just works

291
00:49:07.159 --> 00:49:16.400
differently and can do amaze and things. Now invite a

292
00:49:16.440 --> 00:49:25.559
feeling of compassion and understanding towards yourself because you deserve it,

293
00:49:28.400 --> 00:49:34.400
and remind yourself that it's okay to face challenges because

294
00:49:34.440 --> 00:49:41.599
everyone does. And what's important is that you treat yourself

295
00:49:42.159 --> 00:49:59.000
with the same kindness you would offer a friend. And

296
00:49:59.079 --> 00:50:04.440
you are learning and growing each day and you're doing

297
00:50:04.519 --> 00:50:15.440
your best. Just give yourself permission to be patient with

298
00:50:15.559 --> 00:50:23.159
your progress, and if you make a mistake or lose focus,

299
00:50:23.519 --> 00:50:29.920
it's all right. And instead of criticizing yourself, you can

300
00:50:30.039 --> 00:50:38.760
gently encourage yourself to try again, just as we practice

301
00:50:38.920 --> 00:50:51.400
bringing attention back without judgment, and by being kind to yourself,

302
00:50:51.800 --> 00:50:57.639
you replace any old feelings of shame or frustration with

303
00:50:58.400 --> 00:51:05.760
hope and resilience, and you learn to work with your

304
00:51:05.800 --> 00:51:14.599
brain instead of against it. And this self compassion is

305
00:51:14.960 --> 00:51:22.320
truly powerful, and it melts away any stress and builds

306
00:51:22.400 --> 00:51:28.880
up your confidence, helping you to bounce back from setbacks

307
00:51:29.840 --> 00:51:46.119
every time. In fact, experts notice that mindful self compassion

308
00:51:47.199 --> 00:51:54.800
can reduce harsh self criticism and create a much kinder

309
00:51:55.599 --> 00:52:04.400
inner voice that sounds nice. Just feel how much lighter

310
00:52:05.320 --> 00:52:13.199
you become as you let go of self judgment. You

311
00:52:13.239 --> 00:52:22.679
can forgive yourself the past difficulties as you embrace a

312
00:52:22.760 --> 00:52:34.280
new positive way forward. As you picture now how you

313
00:52:34.320 --> 00:52:40.639
will carry this understanding into your daily life. You can

314
00:52:40.800 --> 00:52:46.280
envision yourself in a situation that normally challenges your focus,

315
00:52:48.079 --> 00:52:54.679
perhaps sitting at your desk or study or work, or

316
00:52:54.679 --> 00:52:59.280
in a classroom listening to your teacher doing homework in

317
00:52:59.360 --> 00:53:04.679
the evening, wherever the scenario is, and you can see

318
00:53:04.719 --> 00:53:13.039
your future self in that scenario, remaining as calm and

319
00:53:13.239 --> 00:53:22.760
focused as you are right now. And maybe you imagine

320
00:53:22.880 --> 00:53:33.599
writing or reading with a gentle concentration or completing a

321
00:53:33.719 --> 00:53:41.639
task step by step with confidence, and you feel the

322
00:53:41.679 --> 00:53:56.519
same relaxed alertness that you do at this moment. And

323
00:53:56.960 --> 00:54:03.039
if a distraction appears, maybe a noise astray thought, you

324
00:54:03.239 --> 00:54:14.280
just stay composed and you might notice the distraction briefly,

325
00:54:16.039 --> 00:54:22.599
but then you let it go, just like watching a

326
00:54:22.599 --> 00:54:40.280
cloud drift by, and return your attention to your task

327
00:54:41.400 --> 00:54:51.519
because you are patient and persistent, focusing just on one

328
00:54:51.719 --> 00:55:06.719
thing at a time. And notice how well you can

329
00:55:06.800 --> 00:55:18.559
concentrate in this image and how good it feels to

330
00:55:18.679 --> 00:55:27.280
accomplish your task with clarity. You might even feel proud

331
00:55:27.320 --> 00:55:32.760
of yourself in that scenario, knowing you have done what

332
00:55:32.840 --> 00:55:38.239
you set out to do and this can't focus is

333
00:55:38.440 --> 00:55:45.519
your new superpower and will be with you whenever you

334
00:55:45.679 --> 00:55:59.960
need it in real life. Now allow yourself to feel,

335
00:56:00.880 --> 00:56:07.119
to truly feel the happiness and confidence from this success

336
00:56:09.719 --> 00:56:16.199
because you can do this. You have all the tools

337
00:56:16.280 --> 00:56:27.320
within you. Your creative, curious, powerful mind is also a

338
00:56:27.519 --> 00:56:33.119
focused and steady mind when you give it the chance,

339
00:56:41.280 --> 00:56:45.119
and every day you'll get a little better at use

340
00:56:45.360 --> 00:56:52.119
in your focus, and every small victory is a big

341
00:56:52.360 --> 00:57:10.760
step forward as you remember to celebrate those steps and

342
00:57:10.800 --> 00:57:17.559
to be kind to yourself always. You're learning to trust

343
00:57:17.599 --> 00:57:30.519
yourself and you believe in yourself more and more. Now

344
00:57:32.800 --> 00:57:38.079
you've done a wonderful job in this session, and now

345
00:57:38.079 --> 00:57:47.960
it's time to gently conclude this hypnosis journey, and you

346
00:57:48.079 --> 00:57:55.360
have a choice for how to finish, depending on whether

347
00:57:55.480 --> 00:57:59.960
you need to resume your day or drift off to sleep.

348
00:58:03.760 --> 00:58:08.280
Just take a moment to notice how relaxed and positive

349
00:58:08.440 --> 00:58:15.639
you feel right now, as you know that all these

350
00:58:15.840 --> 00:58:25.639
good feelings, the calm, the focus, the self compassion will

351
00:58:25.639 --> 00:58:34.679
remain with you long after this session has ended, supporting

352
00:58:34.760 --> 00:58:43.159
you in your daily life. And when you're ready, follow

353
00:58:43.239 --> 00:58:49.000
the next steps for even waking up or drifting off

354
00:58:49.039 --> 00:59:03.639
into a deep sleep if it's daytime and you need

355
00:59:03.679 --> 00:59:08.079
to rewaken and refocus on your day. To start by

356
00:59:08.119 --> 00:59:15.119
taking a nice, deep, energizing breath, you can begin to

357
00:59:15.239 --> 00:59:20.800
wiggle your fingers and toes, bringing gentle movement back into

358
00:59:20.840 --> 00:59:26.000
your body, and you feel the waking energy flowing into

359
00:59:26.000 --> 00:59:32.800
your arms and legs. And I'll count from one to five,

360
00:59:33.440 --> 00:59:36.679
and with each breath you become more alert and awake,

361
00:59:39.559 --> 00:59:45.039
carrying this calm focus with you the rest of the

362
00:59:45.159 --> 00:59:54.000
day one, starting to wake feeling energ eyes in your body,

363
00:59:55.719 --> 01:00:02.039
to becoming more aware of the room around you, sounds

364
01:00:02.199 --> 01:00:20.000
and lights. Returning three feeling clearer, refreshed, and focused as

365
01:00:20.039 --> 01:00:33.920
if you've had a wonderful rest. Four almost fully awake.

366
01:00:34.079 --> 01:00:41.920
Now take another deep breath, fill in your lungs with fresh,

367
01:00:42.000 --> 01:00:58.480
bright energy, and five open your eyes fully awake, feeling calm, focused,

368
01:00:59.400 --> 01:01:06.119
and ready to continue your day with a clear mind.

369
01:01:08.920 --> 01:01:12.320
Just take a moment to stretch your arms and shoulders

370
01:01:12.360 --> 01:01:17.199
if you want, and you are alert, confidant, and ready

371
01:01:17.239 --> 01:01:26.000
to use your focus and creativity in anything you do today. Now,

372
01:01:28.960 --> 01:01:32.480
if it's bedtime or you're ready to drift off into

373
01:01:32.519 --> 01:01:36.800
a sleep, you don't need to do anything at all extep.

374
01:01:37.119 --> 01:01:43.760
Just stay relaxed, continue to lie here peacefully, feed in

375
01:01:43.800 --> 01:01:50.559
the heaveness of your body as it sinks into the bed,

376
01:01:54.079 --> 01:01:57.440
as every breath takes you deeper into a state of

377
01:01:57.639 --> 01:02:04.000
drowsy comfort. And there is nothing else you need to

378
01:02:04.119 --> 01:02:09.679
do tonight, and nowhere else you need to be. You

379
01:02:09.760 --> 01:02:23.760
can just let go completely. Now, feel how cozy and

380
01:02:24.000 --> 01:02:31.000
safe you are with your eyes closed, and they will

381
01:02:31.039 --> 01:02:36.519
remain closed as you begin to drift into a deep,

382
01:02:37.360 --> 01:02:47.000
RESTful sleep, and any thoughts that come will now simply

383
01:02:48.480 --> 01:02:59.360
turn into a soft, dreamy images and then fade away.

384
01:03:05.280 --> 01:03:09.599
And as your mind is quiet, your body is relaxed,

385
01:03:14.280 --> 01:03:19.199
and from the top of your head to the bottom

386
01:03:19.239 --> 01:03:38.280
of your feet, you're comfortably warm, calm, and sleepy. Allow

387
01:03:38.480 --> 01:03:46.880
the deep calm we created to carry you effortlessly into sweet,

388
01:03:47.440 --> 01:03:58.440
healing sleep, and tonight you'll sleep soundly, and your unconscious

389
01:03:58.559 --> 01:04:05.000
mind will remember all of the positive messages you heard,

390
01:04:08.480 --> 01:04:14.920
and you will continue working gently for you, helping you

391
01:04:15.039 --> 01:04:24.800
focus and feel calm even after you wake. So for

392
01:04:24.960 --> 01:04:30.360
now you can just enjoy this feeling of complete peace

393
01:04:33.559 --> 01:04:50.239
floating into sleep. Good night, and sleep well. Thank you

394
01:04:50.280 --> 01:04:54.960
for listening. Remember to be kind to yourself, because you

395
01:04:55.159 --> 01:05:07.039
deserve to be happy. A gent with yourself, he deserved

396
01:05:07.079 --> 01:05:20.639
