wherever you get your podcasting fix.
Come, let me introduce you to the world of ancient Egypt.
Welcome to Sleep Cove with Christopher Fitten,
the place to come for a great night's sleep.
We all need help in finding confidence and discovering ourselves,
and this recording will help you do that.
Firstly, you'll be relaxed through progressive muscle relaxation
and go into a deeply relaxed state where I will tell you deeply calm suggestions and metaphor-led stories
designed to awaken your self-discovery and why not have help experiencing your self-discovery
through the comfort of your own bed. One thing that can be quite certain is that you'll feel relaxed,
calm and ready to drift off while in control at all times and can awake if you need to.
Please listen to this recording in a place where you can safely go to sleep.
Let's begin.
In a state of self-hypnosis, you're not asleep or unconscious.
You're aware of your surroundings.
You can't be forced to do anything that's against your will.
Don't worry about outside sounds and distractions
because you're soon able to relax completely
and you can use the outside sounds to deepen your relaxed state.
You're always in control
and can accept or reject the suggestions as you wish.
Allow yourself to absorb the suggestions without evaluating or analysing.
Don't worry if your mind drifts off because you'll still gain the benefits from the recording.
When you find yourself focused on other thoughts, gently remind yourself to focus on my voice and the suggestions.
Don't worry about getting it or doing it right.
Just allow yourself to feel comfortable and relax.
Now take a deep breath as you exhale
and allow your eyes to close if they haven't already.
Imagine a cord attached to the base of your spine
and travelling all the way to the centre of the earth.
Really anchor that cord.
now into the centre of the earth, wrapping the ends around anything solid you find.
Allow the cord to expand to a size that's comfortable for you, tension and anxiety or negativity
down that can release any unfinished projects, any external worries, or any people who
may want your attention.
Acknowledge any thoughts that may come into your mind,
or release them down your grounding cord.
Take another deep breath.
Hold the breath and exhale through your mouth with a sigh.
Relaxing even deeper.
Feeling so calm, so tranquil.
And with your third deep breath,
once more comfortably filling your lungs.
Holding the breath and as you exhale, allow that remaining stress and tension to flow out of your body,
it's not necessary to hear any outside sounds or anyone else's voice.
And now you can enjoy the comfort of drifting into a deep state of
relaxation. This is the most important process for you to be doing and the most
important place for you to be. Just allow yourself to let go and relax. Now
focus your awareness on the muscles on the top of your head and begin to feel a
wave of relaxation flowing from the top of your head to muscles there.
and into your eyebrows.
Moving around your eyes now,
using the eyes and the little muscles around your eyes
with comfort as you feel yourself
drifting deeper and deeper.
Focusing on the sound of my voice,
feel yourself drifting deeper
as you feel the wave of relaxation,
moving across your nose and down into your cheeks.
The muscles just melting away, just like butter, melting in a warm pan,
drifts deeper as the muscles around your mouth, relax, relaxation,
flows into your jaw, into your tongue and your jaw relax.
and all tension that is there just lets go.
Since your jaw anymore, slightly opens.
Now allow, which is relaxing all the muscles in your face and head.
Move down over your back, around your ears and temples, and it moves into your neck muscles,
and all those muscles begin to melt and blend, meaning yourself.
drift deeper and deeper to soothe as you completely relax outside noises, sounds and even your own thoughts
cause you to drift and go deeper, deeper that that relaxation flow into your shoulders,
how your shoulders begin to drop and droop they sag with a comfortable, drowsy feeling of
relaxation. The tension goes for those muscles to let go completely. You are right now.
Even more than a few minutes ago of comfort begins to flow across your shoulders and down your arms.
You feel the relaxation move into each and every muscle as the muscles before have detents.
The muscles that are going to be relaxed now
detents even further.
And this relaxing feeling
moves into every muscle, nerve and tendon.
Is you relax and let go
the muscles melting
effortlessly and easily?
You feel your body sink further into the bed
on the back of your neck,
Relax completely, but definitely a soothing wave, moves around your elbows and down into your forearms, and the feeling goes into your wrists.
Three tips of your fingers, relaxing more with each easy breath, with each breath you take, you relax on that all stress and tension to drain out of your body.

of your toes. Now allow any remaining stress to drain right out of the very ends of your feet,
removing all eight, serving no useful. Ten down to one. Now yourself to deepen this relaxation.
Each descending number takes you deeper down. Relaxed. Let's see. First step down,
deeper and deeper.

Relaxing more.
Each descending number.
Drifting, floating, gliding.

And when I reach

you'll be 10 times more relaxed.
More deeply relaxed than you are right now.
Deeply still relax.
Three, almost down to that perfect place of peace and tranquility.
Doubly, deeply relaxed.
More relaxed than you've ever been.
As you reach this state of complete relaxation,
you enter your own private haven.
A beautiful place of place of complete relaxation.
peace, comfort and tranquillity.
A place where you are deeply relaxed.
A place where it's safe to share and feel your feelings.
A place where it's safe to express your feelings.
A place where you're safe, relaxed and at peace.
Your subconscious mind to open fully as a flower opens to the
the rays of the sun, listen to the relaxing sounds around you. Become aware of your own easy, deep breathing
and feel the relaxation flowing through your body and visualize yourself relaxed and at peace in this beautiful place.
As you look around, you may find yourself. It may find yourself in a sense.
space, our feeling and knowing whatever's appropriate for you. You are now going to count
backwards from 100 to relax your mind. Now to relax your mind, you do this now, 100. By the time
I reach the number 97, the numbers dissolve and drift out of your mind.
Beginning to count now.
100.
Deeply relaxed.
99.
Deeper relaxed.
98.
More deeply relaxed.
97 more doubly deeply relaxed.
The numbers drifting right out of your mind.
Totally dim and distant.
Relax them out now and let them be gone.
If any numbers remain, they drift away, as I continue to talk in a deeply relaxed state.
From this moment I know the power to take control of what you want in your life,
and you allow deep breathing and relaxation to flow through your body.
I'm going to give you some suggestions now.
The next part of your mind now is going to hit you.
hear some suggestions. The mind may be passive and receptive to these suggestions and you can easily
accept the positive suggestions if you wish. These suggestions will become a part of you. They're very
part of your thinking. Your behaviour and your being may become realised into you. If you wish them
too, the suggestions automatically go into action.
and become reality in your life, and you can return to this level of peace and relaxation whenever you want to.
Each time you practice self-hypnosis, you enter this state of relaxation, quickly and easy,
and effortlessly, each time you practice self-hypnosis, you achieve this deep level of relaxation.
With each practice, you allow yourself to go deeper and further than before.
And with each positive suggestion, you accept if you wish to, and it becomes a part of your active mind.
All things are possible in this private, peaceful place.
Let's take a walk out of your sanctuary and into a garden as you walk.
as you walk through this beautiful garden.
Notice the magnificent flowers,
all peaceful, feeling so content,
needs you to further enlightenment,
experience spiritual growth.
However, your journey comes to an abrupt end
when you suddenly see before you a stone rock
you approach the wall
that barricades your way
as you look around
on either side of the wall
you realise
around this wall
as you look up at how
high the wall is
you realize that you have to
go past this wall
to progress on your journey
remaining on this
side of the wall
limits your personal growth
Perhaps you can jump over the wall.
Move back just a bit and run a few steps,
jumping up as high as you can.
However, you cannot reach the top and you slide back.
This time you walk back even further, harder,
and jump towards the top of this wall.
But you still cannot reach the top.
back down the wall. So now you go back many feet and with a running start you run as hard as you can
and jump as high as you are able to and clench your fingers on the top of the wall
but soon you start scratching your arms and hurting your elbows as you fall back upon the ground
and suddenly you realize that this wall is a part of yourself,
that you've repressed, that you've carefully hidden from the world,
and perhaps even from yourself, this wall is a block on your journey through life.
It's a part of yourself that needs to be healed as to move beyond this wall
in order to grow and learn about yourself.
So one more time, you try to go over this wall.
You start back even further and run harder,
and you jump as high as you can,
climbing, grasping on the wall.
But you slide down, scratching your face and your hands.
You've hurt your knees
As you stand up and look at yourself
You realise that to fight this wall
Will destroy you
So you think
What am I going to do
How am I going to get past this wall
This part of myself that needs to be healed
If it's important for you to know
Take a moment now to understand
what part of you is causing this block is the emotion or event that has kept you stuck
walk up now and place your hands on the wall. You can smell the stones and feel the roughness
of the wall. You realise again that there's no way around this wall and no way to go over
or under this wall.
You have to go through the wall.
Ask yourself,
what will take you
through the wall
and your beliefs?
We'll help you now
a belief in yourself
that you can do anything
who can do it.
Go put one hand
into the wall.
Bring your other foot
and into the wall.
You're now a few inches
It's becoming very clear now
that you have to get through this block
in order to heal.
There's no way around it,
no way over it,
no way and then you soon realise
that the wall is very thick.
But you're standing in it
somewhere in the middle of this wall
breathing easily
and effortlessly.
Standing in the middle of your block, you may be wondering, how can I do this?
How can I move myself through a wall?
You do have a choice.
You may go back to the other side of the wall,
or you can continue towards greater freedom and personal growth.
You decide to continue through the wall.
Take another step and another step.
and as you get almost to the edge of the wall,
you have to decide,
can I continue?
Can I break through this wall?
Can I get through this block?
Yes, you can do it.
Take one more step and push yourself out.
Suddenly you're standing on the other side of this wall.
You see a strange new world.
world before you, a world that you've never seen before.
A free, open, healthy world for you to experience within yourself, freed forever from your block.
Continue on your path now and notice how different you feel.
As you continue on the path you come to a lake and you stop and look at your reflection in the more
see how different you look now, see how different you feel. Your thoughts are brighter,
your view of the world has changed, you are in a more happy place, the
radio seems brighter, more clear, the colours are more vibrant, the air even
smells fresher. Enjoy this new improved world within.
and take a few moments now to absorb this transformation,
enjoying the shift within you at your deepest level,
absorbing the change in every cell,
every thought and even every belief,
accepting all suggestions which are positive and beneficial for you,
and releasing anything that does not fit into your life at this time.
You are feeling so positive about yourself, so positive about the future actions you must take to live the life you want to do, the life that you want to live.
You see that overcoming this wall, you can overcome anything.
And you love this experience of self-discovery, seeing what the future lies and hold for you now.
few moments to absorb this and you absorb this through your physical being, being in your
mind's eye and taking all the techniques, these people because you love learning new things
and you love expanding your knowledge and you have gone on a trip of self-discovery and you feel
amazing and at ease. If you're in bed now, get ready to
to drift off into a sound seat.
