of taking action. In our fast-paced world, it's all too easy to fall into the trap of procrastination, delaying the things that would bring as joy and fulfillment. But today, we'll embark on a quest to break free from that cycle and embrace the power of decisive action. I certainly know how easy it is to fall into procrastination, especially that we are also distracted by our phones and the multitude of digital temptations

that make work and action easy to delay. We all have dreams, goals and aspirations and we often have to take that first step to get there. Yet often we find ourselves stuck in a cycle of overthinking and indecision. But we are going to change that for you now. In this hypnosis episode, you will become deeply relaxed, and then I will give you positive suggestions to beat procrastination

and take action so you achieve your goals and become a doer. We'll unlock the reservoir of motivation, and determination that resides deep within you. So please get comfortable and settled on a bed. Begin. Please make yourself as comfortable as you can. Separate your hands and let them lie loosely by your side. It doesn't matter if you need to just move slightly.

Now and again, just get a little. as comfortable as you can. You don't have to be absolutely still. Just be comfortable and relax the whole body as much as you can. Now I want you before breathing out slowly. And as you let go and breathe out slowly, allow your whole body to relax. And please close your eyes if you haven't already.

and just be guided by the sound of my voice. You may be aware of other sounds, but this time is just for you. If you are really needed, you can break at any point and go. But otherwise, this is your time. Your time to relax. Be free.

The only sound you'll be free. interested in is the sound of my voice and concentrate on your breathing again, putting one hand on your chest and one hand on your stomach. You do a deep body as you relax out. Today you're going to be hearing suggestions and affirmations and ways that you can take action. Stop procrastination. Be the person you want to be. That will come a little later. But now I would like you to take three deep breaths. For a deep breath of one, two, three, hold. You are starting to feel more relaxed.

And one final deep breath within hold for a second. and then relax and as you relax out, your body relaxes too. Deep breathing makes us become more relaxed as our blood chemistry becomes optimal

for our body. Now listen to my voice and imagine that you are sitting on a grassy air. You are safe and comfortable nice evening. and you are warm and pleasant here.

There's a cool breeze. The night sky is clear and you can see your amazing surroundings that are peaceful in the sky. You can see one very bright twinkling star if you look at the star. You notice that it is starting to move the star is starting to fall in a kind of slow motion.

You watch the star as it descends peacefully downwards through the dark sky as it falls slowly. You feel the muscles on your head start to relax and the muscles on your forehead start to relax. The star moves down slowly. You feel your eyes. Gee, you feel your neck and shoulders relaxing. Watching, your star is slowly falling.

As it moves down through, you could be looking at your beautiful artworks and hands. You are feeling peaceful and content. Watching the star slowly floating towards the ground. you relax your chest and stomach with all the muscles around your chest relaxing now enables you now to carry on doing deepsing around your stomach

to continue doing deep as the start is getting closer to the ground lower back pelvis hips arms relax you are breathing calmly relaxing more and more with In closer and closer to the ground, you feel into your ankles, your feet, to the tips of your toes. You feel fully relaxed now.

The sense of your toes, and the feeling moves up. It's so beautiful. Getting closer and closer to the ground disappear supremely relaxed and very comfortable, has disappeared into, the night sky looking out and do you enjoy this. In the distance, see a large tent like a safari tent and you decide on the grass, investigate it, the entrance and inside is a large, comfortable looking bed surrounded by five candles, five large candles, supported by a stand on the bottom, supported by a stand on the bottom bottom of the floor, up to about five feet high, with a large candle on top, all lit.

You know that this is a place for serene relaxation. You've decided to blow the candles out before you go to bed. So the second candle's about and get under it and get into the bed. You're so cozy relaxing. The pressure is cool and pleasant. The mindset of a doer and taking action in your life by realizing

that now is the best time to start you have over procrastination and are ready to understand never be a bit of perfect time to begin. You choose you go. Visualize yourself, starting the things you have been putting off. Stress of not taking action. Sometimes we get stuck. Imagine yourself, freezing you in inaction or actions or taking certain actions. You realize that the sooner you face those fears.

Repetition, you will become comfortable and confident in those areas. Become second nature to you. Keep up with a great work on your journey as a doer. Each time you decide to act more successful, closer to your goals. Believe in yourself and your ability to accomplish anything you set your mind to. I believe in you and you believe in yourself stay focused

give a time when you have not taken action before anymore imagine yourself to be focused and determined and you see this in your mind's eye you see that you become the best version of yourself showing up being so focused and determined.

You wake up early. You take action when you need to. Distractions are a thing of how important it is to you to stop procrastinating and take action and you put plans into place

to make sure distractions are kept at a minimal that if you do become distracted you quickly become a focus on what you need to achieve. You see any patterns of distraction and recognise how you fall into these patterns, how you become less focused and distracted

to make sure that you do not fall into these patterns. It could be putting your phone into a draw, for instance, as we are so distracted by those things at the moment which appear on our phone like notifications. You think of them now. You will put plans to decide to take everything happens in the next. Imagine the things right now that you haven't started yet. It could be studying.

It could be a business venture. You could be doing a task, needing, wanting to learn or research more before you get started. But now you imagine yourself doing it right now. If you need to, you realise that if you do it now, you can learn as you go along with it. Doing it now in short, being a perfectionist, can stop you getting started as everything needs to be perfect first. But this kind of behaviour can hold people back. Getting started early stops procrastination and eventual quitting.

You have become a doer, an action taker. Your new mantra is, do it now. You realise that sometimes there's no perfect time to start. You start when things are right, but you do not put them off for a long time, unnecessarily. Imagine yourself starting things that you've been putting off for a long time. How does it feel to finally get them going? You are a doer. Overthinking is a thing of the past. You come up with ideas and you act on them. Imagine a scenario when you have completed your action and it has been a success.

How good does this make you feel? Imagine this in your mind's eyes. I'm so happy and so proud of yourself that you have completed what you needed to. But once you start things, you do take continuous action. You'll continue until you have been successful. Or you can take another direction. to use this to overcome fear

you feel so good about yourself you can really see yourself in the future taking action being successful and not played by indecision you are super focused procrastination and putting off things does not happen to you anymore

and if it does you can become hyper-focused quickly and acknowledge the things that are making you distracted. You put into place your own little tools and procedures, so you notice that you are getting distracted earlier and that you can act on it quicker. I want to leave you now with you really visualising in your mind's eye, the success and action you want to achieve. and focus on it and dream that you are there soon. You will be doing what you need to do.

You will be taking action and be more focused. So just relax now for a few minutes, thinking about the goal you have achieved and how happy this makes you.
