EP 55: Raccoons, Foxes, and Litterboxes with Skylar, Part 2
DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE WHILE DRIVING!!! The Hilarity and Hypnosis Approach uses humor to kill the triggers, but since this is Skylar's third session, enough triggers have been addressed that it's time to start using HYPNOSIS to build up the behaviors that Skylar wants for herself. Using characteristics from her role models, The Hilarious Hypnotist Traci begins creating a recording she can listen to every night. She also does a mini-regression, taking Skylar back to the pre-teen who had all of her things taken away, and letting her know she's going to get all those things back and more sometime in the future.
Skylar visualizes a room with red and white sheets of paper, symbolizing past hurtful words and positive affirmations. They metaphorically tear up the red sheets and dispose of them, symbolizing letting go of past traumas. Skylar then fills the room with white sheets, representing positive characteristics and accomplishments. They also address specific past traumas, such as being bullied and losing a dog. The session concludes with Skylar feeling lighter and more at peace, having processed and released past hurt.
