If the mind envisages something happening enough times, there is a strong likelihood that it will eventually become a self fulfilling prophecy.
The projection can be directive or non-directive. When it is directive, the subject is visually guided along a specific path - whereas with non-directive projection the subject is encouraged to accept or work with whatever material transpires. Compare the following two sentences for example:
"See yourself as having lost three stone in weight. You are slim, attractive, with a flat tummy and toned arms".
The image is one that belongs to the therapist, rather than the client.
"Now see yourself how YOU really want to look, in one years time. Not how anyone else wants you to look, but how YOU really want to look. How do you really look? Are you happy with yourself?"
The client learns to accept his or her own visual images.
When you do past life regressions or future life progressions it is important NOT to use directives because of the risk of creating a false memory - and yes - you can have memories of the future. The reason for avoidance is because you are looking for material from the client's subconscious mind - not your own..
This rule would not apply when using suggestion therapy because there you are putting new suggestions INTO the subconscious mind.
Advantages of using hypnotic progression are that it enables your client to rapidly accept the idea that he (or she) has overcome his (or hers) problem and it also gives the opportunity to consider appropriate steps to reaching that resolution.
I'm going to describe an excerpt from a future projection script which can be changed to suit the individual. This is a script for someone who has a phobia of bees.
(Use favourite induction and deepener)
Now I want you to project your mind into the future. Imagine that it's about six months from now and your problem is completely solved. You have been in the presence of bees several times and it has not bothered you one slightest bit. When bees have been around you, it has not bothered you, you took things in your stride and got on with what you were doing. When bees are around you you feel so very calm and so very, very much in control. You ar calm, relaxed, and confident.
So imagine now that you're sitting in a beautiful garden. It's a lovely summer's day - July sun shines down on you, warming your body, gently, all over. All around you are beautiful heavily perfumed flowers, there's an archway towards one side of the garden and even a lovely stone rockery with a pretty waterfall running through it. This makes you feel calm. It makes you feel relaxed. Calm, relaxed and very confident.
Because it's such a lovely warm day you've come out into the garden to relax out on the sun chair, to listen to the birds singing and the bees humming, to see the beautiful flowers and perhaps later, read a book or a magazine. You find the perfect spot and make yourself comfortable and then sit down on your sun chair.
You can feel the warmth of the sun permeating every cell, every fibre, every tissue of your body. And as you sit back and gently close your eyes, your face and arms and body begin to feel warm, warm and tingly, a lovely warm, tingly feeling. The drone of the bees nearby make you feel sleepy, make you feel relaxed, and through half opened eyes you see a lovely big bumble bee buzzing around the flowers. You become incredibly curious about the beautiful contrast of colours on the bumble bee, and marvel at how wondeful nature is.
And all this time you feel very calm and very relaxed. Calm, relaxed and at peace with the universe. You are a child of the Universe. A child of the Universe with a right to happiness whilst you exist in this beautiful world. Along with the flowers, the birds, the bees, the water, the earth, the sun, the sky, and all creation, you exist peacefully side by side.
Your curiosity about bees extends to all natural phenomenon. You think about the way you used to feel about bees. That old way of thinking now seems so unnatural, so distant, so detached from the here and now. You enjoy NEW positive ways of thinking and feeling - ways that empower you and make you feel really, really good.
And all this time you feel very calm and very relaxed. Calm, relaxed and at peace with the universe. You are a child of the Universe. A child of the Universe with a right to happiness whilst you exist in this beautiful world. Along with the flowers, the birds, the bees, the water, the earth, the sun, the sky, and all creation, you exist peacefully side by side.
From this healthy vantage I want you now to look back and see the steps that you took towards overcoming your old fear of bees and gaining control of your life. There was one single, most important thing that you did, or did not do, to prepare you for this wonderful advancement in attitude and although you may not have thought about what that step was before now, the idea of it now comes into your mind, makes itself known, just one, very important step. Let the idea of that step come into your mind and nod your head when it has.
Wait for response. Good. And now the second step becomes apparent. And little by little, bit by bit, you begin to see how it was that you overcame that fear, how it was that you took control over your life. And the most amazing thing is that it all began, with one, single little step.
Your life is improving now in many ways. For giving up fear means embracing freedom. And you are free. You are a child of the Universe. A child of the Universe with a right to happiness whilst you exist in this beautiful world. Along with the flowers, the birds, the bees, the water, the earth, the sun, the sky, and all creation, you exist peacefully side by side.
It is time to return to the here and now. You feel wonderfully calm, relaxed and in control. This experience and the good feelings associated with it will remain with you for a long, long time.
Now I'm going to count up from one to five and at the count of five, you'll be wide awake, refreshed and relaxed and in complete control of your mind, your body and your health.
