How I use mindfulness and hypnosis to create peace and wellness
Recently, I’ve realized that my love for mindfulness and hypnosis creates a powerful synergy that brings me peace and wellness. These two practices complement each other beautifully, allowing me to live with greater calm, energy, and vitality.
But let’s pause for a moment—what do peace and wellness mean to you? These concepts can look different for everyone. For me, peace is the absence of stress and anxiety, the feeling of being confidently in control of my life. Wellness, on the other hand, is feeling good in my body, energized, and knowing that my body can heal itself and manage pain effectively.
Today, I want to share my morning meditation process—a step-by-step routine I use to dissolve anxiety, cultivate peace, and foster wellness.
This is my process, something I’ve developed and refined over time. I started by following someone else’s steps, then evolved it into a practice that resonates with me. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach, so feel free to adapt this to suit your needs.
Let’s dive in!
My Morning Meditation Process
Step 1: Set a Timer
I start by setting a timer for 15 minutes. If you’re new to this, you might want to begin with a shorter time—whatever feels comfortable for you.
Step 2: Take Core Breaths
Next, I take a few deep breaths, focusing on releasing any tension or “stuff” I may be holding onto.
Step 3: Mindful Breathing
I bring my awareness to my breath—this is the mindful breathing phase. I focus on something specific about my breath, such as its rhythm, the muscles involved, or even the sound it makes. I stay here for a few moments or minutes, allowing myself to relax deeply before moving on.
Step 4: Gratitude Practice
Once I feel relaxed, I shift my focus to gratitude. I silently say “thank you” for whatever comes to mind—my angels and guides, their light and guidance, or the blessings in my life.
Step 5: Self-Hypnosis
Now, I transition into self-hypnosis, combining imagination and emotion. I visualize what I want and focus on how it would feel to have it right now.
Here’s an example: If I’m feeling anxious about a person or situation, I avoid dwelling on “what if” scenarios. Instead, I focus solely on what I want to happen. I send energy into the universe, affirming that I want this outcome—or something even better.
Similarly, if I’m dealing with illness, I don’t focus on the discomfort. I imagine myself feeling better, full of vitality, and doing the things I love. This sends a strong message to my subconscious mind that I expect to feel better soon.
Step 6: Wrap Up with Gratitude
I stay with this visualization and emotion until the timer rings. Then, I thank the universe, the Divine, or God, and slowly bring myself back to alertness, feeling inspired, empowered, and amazing.
Step 7: Journaling
After the meditation, while still in a state of deep relaxation, I grab my journal for an automatic writing session.
This is where I process any limiting beliefs, blocks, or frustrations that may have surfaced during the session. Sometimes I’m consciously aware of these, and other times they’re just below the surface.
Journaling helps me release these blocks for good. I create action plans, affirmations, and healing practices, or even tap into inspiration and excitement about my goals. It’s a powerful way to conclude my meditation/self-hypnosis practice.
My Super Power
This is why mindfulness and hypnosis is my Super Power. Mindfulness has the power to produce relaxation, easily and quickly, opening the door to your subconscious mind. Then following up with self-hypnosis manifesting what you want both in your subconscious mind and with your energy sending your manifesting vibration into the universe. This synergy is empowering, healing and calming.
