This episode is intentionally short, to be easily repeated as needed. To skip straight to hypnosis instructions and process, skip to about 3:30. 

Use this short, simple process to keep your unconscious mind focused on your well formed outcome or goal, to make achieving it feel so much more motivating, and to allow your unconscious mind to find ways to get you there that you may not have consciously been aware of. 

Using this repeatedly really helps this work even better, so set aside a few minutes a day, or several times a week, to really allow your unconscious mind to marinate in the details, and really lock in on your outcome.

In this episode, we are taking one of your goals and going through 7 different principles from the NLP Well Formed Outcome process. This will help with motivation, clarity,  and help you insure you are pursuing the best goals for your total wellbeing in the first place. 

Here are the principles we cover here: 

1) State your outcome in the positive
2) Make sure your outcome is self-initiated and self-maintained
3) Discover your evidence criteria, how do you know when you have achieved your outcome in terms of what you can see, hear, feel, etc? 
4) What context is appropriate for the goal, and what isn't.. put this in terms of where, when, and with whom.
5) Consider what positive benefits might you LOSE with this change, and how can you maintain them?
6) What resources will you need (time, space, tools, knowledge, support, emotional resources, etc)? Which of these do you already have, and how can you acquire the ones you don't already have access to? 
7) Is your outcome ecological, as in holistically beneficial in your life? For each area of importance in your life, including relationships, finances, health, work, home life, energy, enjoyment, relaxation, and spirituality, ask What will happen if I achieve this outcome? What will NOT happen if I achieve this outcome? What will happen if I do NOT achieve this outcome? What will NOT happen if I do NOT achieve this outcome?

Have you ever felt like you are holding yourself back, or sabotaging yourself in some way? This episode is a hypnotic journey to work with a part of ourself that has been out of alignment with our conscious goals in life, allowing this inner part, or ego state, to update its awareness and release old emotional baggage, and  even adopt new behaviors and strategies that support us in better ways.

This episode is all about ego states, or parts of ourselves, that take on different roles in our lives. Learning about this framework can help us understand ourselves and others better, and give us access to some really effective ways to create positive changes in our lives. 

The 2 main strategies we discuss include stepping into a scene of a resourceful moment and bringing that ego state back into a moment where those resources are needed, and actually having a dialogue with that part of yourself, which will be especially easy and useful for those of you with experience using self hypnosis.

This episode was inspired by the movie Everything Everywhere All at Once,  and takes us on a hypnotic adventure jumping through parallel lives gathering resources and perspective, and in the spirit of this movie, some of these adventures are a little outside the box. We'll be trying on these different lives, different experiences, as a way to move beyond the need to try to look perfect, be perfect, or somehow do things perfectly, in favor of feeling more free and comfortable with ourselves, so we can embrace growth, creativity, and curiosity, and live life more fully.

Perfectionism is so much more than our favorite humble brag for our least favorite job interview question, it's a way of thinking that keeps us stuck, and sucks the enjoyments out of our lives. In this episode, we explore some small steps we can begin taking right away that can help us to move forward into feeling more creative, more playful, more connected in our lives and our work. 

Here are the questions we explore together, for those of you who want to think through this at your own pace:

1)  Identify an area of your life where you feel stuck, or held back, by the need to do things just right. This can be any area of life, something large or small. 

2) Notice the ways in which perfectionism has held you back. It's easier to stay in our rut when we forget the reasons why we want to expand and grow instead, so list the ways this current pattern is NOT working for you. 

3) Now, on the flip side, imagine the positive side of what it will do for you when you allow yourself to try new things, learn, grow, and be imperfect in this area of your life. Imagine what you would enjoy doing if nobody ever saw or knew about it. 

4) With this positive future vision in mind, identify one small doable step you can actually take in this direction, what small way can you begin experimenting, opening up possibilities, exploring your creativity and curiosity in this part of your life? If you think of more than one, then choose one step to start with for now. 

5) Decide exactly when, where, and how you will take this small step. If it's possible to do today, or very soon, do it as soon as possible. 

6) Think about the best ways for you to face whatever discomfort might come up during the process, and plan in advance how you want to move through that.

In this episode, we go on a hypnotic journey together to your inner sound room, the place where you can make empowering edits to your internal voice, so that your inner dialogue becomes more positive, more supportive, with wisdom and perspective to help you on your journey through life, rather than criticizing you or tearing you down. 

Please listen at a time and place where it is safe to close your eyes and tune out the world for a little while.

In this episode, we are working with critical thoughts, to remove the emotional impact of the negative things people have said to us, and things we say to ourselves, and also learning how to begin fostering more positive and empowering internal dialogue instead.
