Trading & Investing: Using Hypnosis to Prepare for the Day
This post aims to take you into a light level of hypnosis. If you don’t want to go into hypnosis, you may stop reading this post now…
Yes
It is possible
To go into hypnosis
With your eyes open
Take in a deep breath
Let it out
Slowly
Sometimes
In your car
You daydream
Sometimes
This daydreaming creates
Time distortion
You’re thinking about something else
And you pass your exit
This is a form of hypnosis
You do it in your car
With your eyes open
So now
Take another deep breath
Let it out
Slowly
Relax
Get in touch with your body
Your body is your subconscious
Feel for your heartbeat
Feel for your pulse
Take another deep breath
Let it out
Slowly
Relax
Feel for your heartbeat
Feel for your pulse
Time is slowing down
You are reading these words
Slowly
Very slowly
Your breath is coming slower too
Connect with your body
Connect with your subconscious
Connect with
The part of your mind
That controls your heartbeat
That controls your breath
Feel for your heartbeat
Feel for your pulse
Relax even more
Double
Your level
Of relaxation
Allow a sense of inner peace
To grow within you
You are going to have
A good day trading
You are going to have
A good day investing
This doesn’t mean
You’ll necessarily make money
It means
By being
Relaxed
Calm
Alert
At peace within yourself
You will be ready
To deal with
Problems
Challenges
If they arise
So take another deep breath
Let it out
Slowly
Get in touch with your body
Your body is your subconscious
Feel for your heartbeat
Feel for your pulse
Now then
Imagine
Just imagine
You are in a small quaint village
At the foot of
A tall green mountain
It’s springtime
There’s snow way up on top
It’s melting
It’s coming down the mountainside
In small streams at first
And then
Lower down
In rushing torrents
You take a trail
Out of the village
Up the side of the mountain
Next to a rushing stream
The whitewater roars in your ears
But as you move higher
The stream gets smaller
And the roar reduces to a gentle trickle
The air smells clean
The trail crunches beneath your boots
You’re alone
It feels good to be alone
You’re making your own decisions
Which trail to take
How fast to go
How high to go
When to come back down
You feel good
You enjoy the exercise
The higher you go
The trail gets steeper
Rockier
Narrower
Less traveled
Few people climb this high
But you’re in good health
You enjoy the challenge
Using your strength
Using your instincts
Using your senses
To go higher and higher
Up that mountain trail
Where few people go
There are big trees around you
Huge trees
Quiet trees
Powerful trees
Evergreens
With massive trunks
They are tilted into the slope
So they point straight up
At the sky
You walk up the trail among them
Marveling at their size
Marveling at their precarious position
Yet they live up here
Quite well actually
They’re adapted to it
Life
High up on this mountainside
Where few people go
It’s a different world up here
You can see
Far below
The village you left earlier
You have a warm fire
And a good meal
Waiting for you there
But for now
You want to keep going
Up the mountain trail
Because
Just above you
Only a little way farther
There’s a green plateau
It’s flat
Expansive
Covered in long green grasses
inviting
You walk farther up the trail
To get to it
The stream next to the trail
Is smaller now
Clearer
Fresher
You can see snow banks
Melting into it
Sometimes
There’s snow on the trail
It crunches beneath your boots
At length
You arrive at the green plateau
The ground is soft beneath your boots
The grass a long and luxuriant
Green
You see you’re about halfway up the mountain
This is a good place to rest
To relax
To lie down and decide
Which way do you want to go?
Higher?
Lower?
It’s your choice
But right now
The most important thing
Is to relax and
Enjoy the grassy plateau
Enjoy the view
Enjoy your life
High up on this mountainside
Where few people go
Now then
Return to the here and now
Ready for your trading day
Ready for your investing day
Ready to face whatever challenges
That may await you
With a sense of confidence
Serenity
And inner peace
