So we know that our subject is drinking a lot, which always means that they have a feeling of worthlessness. In the interview we found out that her drinking occurs more when she is alone and on the weekend. Drinking will require at least two separate regressions. One for the feeling of “Worthless” and in the second regression we will want to find the emotion that leads her to drink, the urge (the feeling that is force feeding her alcohol). The third regression will be targeted to the “Depressed” feeling.
[They are hypnotized and have been deepened into somnambulism]
Building the “Urge to Drink” Feeling
Hypnotist (speaking with excitement) - “So we are here today to take care of feelings you don’t like, feelings that have everything to do with why you drink to excess. If you do what I say we’ll pluck these feelings right out so you’ll never have to feel them again and you can get on with your life without drinking all that poisonous alcohol.”
“There’s a feeling you have about yourself, a feeling you don’t like! You’ve tried to run from it, you’ve tried to hide from it, you’ve tried to drink it away and numb it, but today you face that feeling! Imagine in your mind right now that you’re at home all alone and it’s the weekend. That feeling starts bubbling up in your mind, there it is, and you’ve felt this feeling so many times before. You can’t stand it anymore. You look over and on the counter is that bottle of tequila, one shot, just one shot, you’ve got to have it!”
“You reach for the bottle, pour a double shot and pick the shot glass up and you can smell it. The feeling is powerful in you now as you raise the shot to your mouth, it’s almost there but the weirdest thing happens! It’s now two inches from your mouth but all of a sudden your arm turns to stone! The harder you try and drink that shot the more locked down your arm becomes and the more locked down it becomes the more that feeling builds in your mind, that feeling that’s causing you to drink in the first place!!!” (finding the urge to drink here)
“Okay now, nod your head when you’re feeling that feeling. (Nod, yes) Okay focus on that feeling, hold on to it. I’m going to count from one up to five, with every count that feeling becomes more powerful, it doubles with every count! When I say five this feeling is bigger than it has ever been. And one, there it is, you’re already feeling it! Two, like a bursting floodgate of emotion! Now three, feeling that feeling powerfully. Doubling again with four! That feeling spilling into your mind and now bigger than it’s ever been - five! Bigger than ever before! There it is hold on to that feeling! Focus on that feeling.”
So what have we done? We have targeted the feeling that is directly linked to the action of drinking alcohol, why she has an urge or craving to drink. Every feeling equals an action and her action is to drink to excess. Some people don’t feel anything and if that happens I fade this whole scene and use the Dave Elman method of regression. In this method I will simply take them back to a young age. I ask if they have problems with drinking, they will say no, so I’ll move them forward maybe five years and ask the question again, they say no again. Then I’ll say something like, “I’m going to pick your hand up and drop it, when it plops on down it will be the first time, situation or event that lead to you drinking to excess.” I generally don’t use the Elman method because I think the technique of building the feeling is faster and more accurate but if the subject doesn’t feel anything or maybe they shut down their feelings as a child for some reason the building of emotion won’t work. Of course if this is the case, if they have indeed shut off their emotions then that will be a separate regression to find out why they did that.
