1.6 What Ships Are For

09/02/17 • 33 min

"Ships are safe in the harbor, but that's not what ships are for." In this episode, James Hazlerig shares an actual recording he made for a client coping with a fear of success--or at least with many of the situations success would bring with it, including public speaking opportunities. This example shows how to combine storytelling and metaphor with more conventional hypnosis techniques, such as direct suggestion and future pacing. The client is a fan of The Secret and the Law of Attraction, so James utilizes that information to build the hypnotic work.
