The Hypnotist: Eat, Pray, Love
Adam Cox bases this episode on the 2010 movie 'Eat, Pray, Love' starring Julia Roberts. The story tells how, following a dramatic life change, she travels in order to re-connect with her true self. It's not necessary to have seen the film to draw real benefit from this episode; the story line and metaphors will help you through change, and to discover who you really are. Image: Wikipedia

The Hypnotist: Smoking Hypnosis
Our trilogy of smoking hypnosis programmes concludes with this brief episode, challenging the unconscious resort to a cigarette in stressful situations such as handling a difficult telephone call. It might help plant a seed for ideas to help cope with a variety of difficult times, and helps move those unconscious reactions into conscious choices for the better.

The Hypnotist: The Cage
Following on from last week's episode, Adam questions the inner dialogue that binds people to unconscious habits like smoking. Using the metaphor of a cage, he asks why people who have experienced a sense of freedom outside the cage should allow any addiction to draw them back within it.

The Hypnotist: Smoking Disassociated
For those who have smoked for years, it can join many of other daily actions in becoming almost automatic in certain situations or circumstances. If you're resolved to give it up, it's therefore a good idea to try to break these neural pathways so that the subconscious no longer reaches for a cigarette without thinking. Adam Cox uses a technique called 'staged disassociation' to interrupt these pathways and help to remove those historical triggers.

The Hypnotist: Vomit Phobia
There are things with which we just can't cope, and one such may well be vomit. Adam Cox tackles a pair of beliefs - that vomit is horrific, and an inability to cope with severe anxiety or terror - by changing these mindsets into alternative understandings: this approach can be much more effective than de-sensitisation. The episode can be used to tackle other phobias such as arachnophobia - so if you suffer from these unpleasant things, give it a try

The Hypnotist: The Bathtub of Money
It's not unusual to associate people who are financially successful with character flaws - perhaps a ruthless personality, perhaps a focus on the 'self': this can result in irrational spending when good fortune appears in order to return to one's perceived former state of equilibrium. This episode uses concepts of hypnotic wealth to help come to terms with this challenge.

The Hypnotist: Danielle Confidence
Building confidence to deal with interviews and applications for promotion can be challenging when potential role models appear boastful or arrogant — behaviour one might not want to copy. So it can be useful to seek out an example of someone who not only has the necessary confidence but also the characteristics one might wish to emulate. This approach is known as a circle of excellence or, as Adam Cox describes it, a cylinder of confidence.
