Introduction When doing a telephone session, it is necessary to alter your technique a bit and as part of that change, a series of short, relaxing visualizations each with a separate countdown is extremely effective. Transcript As you close your eyes take a deep, cleansing and relaxing breath in and out releasing any lingering tension or negativity from the past few minutes, hours, days, weeks or even longer and as you continue to breath deeply and easily feel the rhythm of your breathing gently rock you into a more comfortable place……. feel the slowing down that is occurring in your body and your mind as you relax even more deeply. Remember, this time is for you and you can let...

Introduction Another example of a classic deepener: Transcript As you sit there, very comfortable and very relaxed - you become aware of a staircase - a beautiful staircase with a polished, ornate banister running down alongside and a deep, rich carpet underneath your bare feet.

Introduction This is a nice variation on the popular staircase deepener. Asking the client what number they have reached helps to verify the 'level' of trance they are experiencing. Transcript You’re now standing at the top of a very long and beautiful staircase. There are one hundred steps leading down, and around and although you can’t see the bottom of the stairs from here, you just know that there’s a beautiful place waiting at the bottom of the stairs, just for you. Notice the staircase; notice the carpet if there is one, make it your favourite colour. Perhaps the stairs are made of marble or wood, if so then that’s okay, that’s alright. On either side is a beautiful firm...

[wait for out-breath] relax. And now imagine in your minds eye a single candle which is lit.

The various deepeners found in this section are useful for helping someone reach a 'lower' level of trance. Of course, all of this talk of 'deeper' and 'lower' is simply metaphorical, but it serves a helpful purpose. A popular - and effective - deepener is the simple Staircase. This involves inviting the client to imagine walking down a staircase, becoming more relaxed with each step. It's a simple way for them to focus on the process of becoming increasingly more relaxed, whilst employing their imagination to reinforce the point. Most of the deepeners listed here are variations on this theme.
