I happened to be writing a book on yoga

I happened to be writing a book on yoga and
meditation at the time and came across a website that
offered a downloadable mp3 hypnotic relaxation session. It
cost me about $20 and it was the best $20 I have ever
spent!
There are plenty of places on the internet where you
can get these downloadable sessions for a small fee.
However, you can also practice self-hypnosis on your own.
You first need to find a quiet place where you can fully
relax and listen to your inner voice. You shouldn’t TRY to
make something happen. Let your mind listen and relax. A
large part of achieving that hypnotic state is to allow it to
happen naturally.
Also, don’t watch for certain signs or signals that you
might be in a hypnotic state. We can guarantee that if you
look for these signs, you won’t be able to fully relax and
gain the benefits of self-hypnosis.
There are lots of different ways to experience hypnosis.
No two people will have exactly the same experience. In
one respect, though, everyone has the same experience:
the hypnotic state is always pleasant! There are no "bad
trips" in hypnosis. Keep in mind that self-hypnosis is a
skill, and that you will continue to get better at it and, as
you do, it becomes ever more powerful.
It's a good idea to set up a schedule of practice,
allowing yourself anywhere between 10 and 30 minutes,
depending on how busy you are and how much time you
have to spend at it. Practice during the best part of your
day if you can and at a time when you are least likely to
be disturbed by others.
Most people find it best to practice lying down, in a
comfortable position, with as few distractions as possible.
