This ego-strengthening script is short enough to be used in any session.
"… and … in a few moments I am going to wake you, but before I do … I would like you to know that … as each day goes by … you are going to become … a little more mentally calm … a little more clear in your mind … each day … which means that … you are going to be able to … think more clearly … see things more clearly … so that nothing … and no-one … will ever be able to worry you … or upset you in quite the same way …”
“… your mind becomes … more and more clear … crystal clear … allowing you to feel … physically more relaxed too … not only in your body … but you will feel more relaxed … about yourself … about the world around you …”
“… and as the days … and weeks … and months go by … and you become … ever more calm and clear in your mind … ever more relaxed in your body … it will be perfectly natural … that you are going to be able to cope better … with anything and anybody … and any situation you have to handle in your daily life … “
“… because you are coping more calmly … more … and more confidently too … more confidently … because you will have greater self-control … greater control over the way you think … greater control over the way you feel … and greater control over the way you do things … the way you behave … every day …”
“… you are going to experience … a greater feeling of well-being … physical as well as mental well-being … a greater feeling of safety and security too …more than you have experienced in a long … long time … altogether … you will feel as if a weight … a burden has been lifted off you … allowing you to live your life … in a way that will be so much more satisfying … satisfying to you …"
