Re:self hypnosis by Erickson

the best thing you can do is make yourself a tape and include the suggestions of allowing your unconscious to wonder what it can do. The reason that this is better than just doing it without the aide of a tape, is that when your going into a trance you brain waves have to cycle at a certain frequency, when you give yourself suggestions you need to use your conscious mind and to do that you cycle back up to a higher frequency, then to accept the suggestions you have to cycle back down. When you use a tape you can just drift off, and cycle all the way down to the deepest levels of hypnosis, without having to come up to make up the suggestions. So you can let you mind continue to drift off and accept the suggestions of relaxation, or being comfortable, or whatever it is that you need to hear to go as deep as you need to go, now, OK?
