Try a free guided self-hypnosis session designed to help you relax your body, settle your mind, and experience what hypnosis actually feels like.
This short session will guide you through a simple but effective process used in most structured hypnosis work — giving you a genuine feel for what it means to be “under” hypnosis.
What does it actually feel like to be under hypnosis?
There are a lot of myths around hypnosis.
You do not lose control.
You do not become unconscious.
You are not being controlled or taken over.
In reality, hypnosis feels much closer to that moment just before sleep — when your body is relaxed, your thoughts begin to drift, but you are still aware.
You can hear the voice.
You can think your own thoughts.
You can move if you want to.
Most people simply feel:
- physically relaxed
- mentally quieter
- more inwardly focused
Some feel heavy, some feel light, some just feel calm. All of these are completely normal.
You don’t need to “go deep” for hypnosis to work. What matters is that your attention turns inward and your body begins to relax.
Your Free Sample Session
This session is structured in the same way as a full guided hypnosis recording.
As you listen, you’ll experience four key stages:
1) Body Relaxation
The session begins by helping you release physical tension.
You’ll be guided to relax different parts of your body, allowing muscles to soften and breathing to slow naturally.
This is where most people begin to feel that initial shift — a sense of calm starting to spread.
2) Deepening
Once your body begins to relax, the session gently deepens that state.
This is where your focus turns more inward.
Thoughts may slow down.
You may feel heavier, calmer, or slightly detached from your surroundings.
This is what many people describe as “going under” — but in reality, you are still aware, just more relaxed and internally focused.
3) A Short Period to Simply Enjoy the State
After deepening, there is a short period where nothing is required of you.
No effort.
No thinking.
No doing.
Just time to enjoy the feeling of being relaxed, settled, and mentally quiet.
This is an important part of the process — allowing your mind and body to become familiar with the state.
4) Awakening
At the end of the session, you are gently guided back to full alertness.
There is no sudden snap or shock — just a gradual return to normal awareness, often feeling refreshed, calm, and clear-headed.

Why this state matters
This relaxed, inwardly focused state is where real change work happens.
It is at this point — when you are calm, receptive, and focused — that the subconscious mind becomes more open to:
- suggestion
- mental rehearsal
- visualisation
- new patterns of thinking
This is how guided self-hypnosis is used to support areas such as confidence, habits, stress reduction, focus, and performance.
This free session is simply designed to help you experience the state itself.
How to get the most from this session
- Listen somewhere comfortable
- Avoid interruptions if possible
- Let the voice guide you — no need to try or force anything
- If your mind wanders, that’s completely normal — just continue listening
Even one session can give you a clear sense of how this works.
