The Steps Involved: How do I do it?
First, you will need to feel completely relaxed and comfortable before you are about to perform self-hypnosis. Any negative or foreign thoughts from your mind will have to go. Once that is done, focus your attention to an object near you. It is always better to have this object of focus in your direct line of sight. Keep focusing on the object until your mind has nothing else except for the very image of what you are seeing. It may take weeks of practice to perfect this technique, so do not get disheartened right at the start.
Once you get to this stage, you will notice your eyes slowly drooping, and yourself entering a trance. Always make sure to focus on your breathing during this stage, keeping it constant and not changing its frequency. Keep reminding yourself that you have it under control. Now with your imagination, think that the object of your focus is slowly moving in the motion of a pendulum. Let it sway until a constant is right in front of your eyes.
Making it all possible
Slowly start to count back from 10, with the belief in your mind that you will have reached the ultimate hypnotic state once you finish the count. Once done, clear your mind once again of all foreign thoughts. This is the state that you have been practicing to reach. If you feel lightheaded all of a sudden, this is it. Do not stay here too long, and start counting from 1 to 10, with the aim that once you break out of this trance, you will have achieved a stress-free mind.
