Instructions

• 1

  Create a written script ahead of time so you know exactly what to say into the microphone. Your body must be relaxed for hypnosis to take place. Give yourself commands such as, "breathe slowly," or tell yourself to "take 10 deep breaths" or to "imagine an ocean and focus on it." The goal is to relax your body and mind.

  Once you have written the introduction, write commands to treat your depression. When creating your script, use words and sentences that are suggestive and affirmative. For example, it would not be a good idea to command, "stop being depressed." The subconscious cannot differentiate from a negative word such as stop, don't or can't. However, an affirmative statement would be, "I am happy and at peace." Feel free to use the same affirmative statements over and over again; however, it's more effective to use different affirmations and positive statements because some statements may resonate with you better than others. The key is to tell the subconscious that you want to be happy, at peace, calm, and stress free.

  Write a closing statement or process for your hypnosis session. You can do so by telling yourself that you will count from five to one, and once you reach one you'll be awake, happy, enthusiastic, and well rested. You can also use a sound that will bring yourself out of hypnosis. A sound could be anything from a snapping finger to a bell or chime.

  Proofread your script to determine if it sounds good and flows well. If so, connect your microphone to your computer and start your voice recording software. Sometimes voice recording software may come with your computer. You can use software such as Wiretap, GarageBand (for MAC), or Sound Recorder which comes with Windows XP. You can also go to Download.com for free voice recording software.

  Read your script into your microphone in a slow, calm, and soothing voice. Use Windows Media Player, iTunes, or Nero to burn your audio recording to a CD once you have completed it.
