The Loveday Method.
Student Mr Brian Folkard. (02/08/2022)
Now being a hypnotherapist for some time, I submitted this document to Geoff as an indication of myself using his method with a client. Though I still use conventional hypnosis technique this method is exceptional
As guided by Geoff my next session of hypnosis will be again with Deb.
This being the TREASURE MAP and the 4th session with Deb.
Session was Monday 1st Aug 2022
First thing noticed when arriving was that Deb was obviously calm and relaxed and in her words “looking forward to the session”
INDUCTION
Geoffs choice of induction is the Elman. Now very conscious of this induction and much practised by myself, I feel confident in its effectiveness.
The above shows through as Deb goes deep into hypnotic trance as shown by her body language.
Boiler plate 1 (BP1)
On completion of the induction, This is a method of focussing the clients attention on the hypnotists voice and not allowing a separation from it during the session. This also is a deepener and a means to assure the client of safety. Finally to assist therapy suggestions nothing said should be deemed ridiculous or absurd.
Hands rising
A technique developed to promote acceptance of past events and emotions and the realisation of not requiring to hold onto them. This also gives a way forward in knowledge of a great future ahead, a notable adventure.
A fascinating technique, this is fully explored and taught by Geoff.
At this point the journey purpose is suggested. Deb always upset about not being able to loose weight I suggest an old map lost for centuries needs to be found to guide her to an answer to the question she is always asking.
Imagery
The journey begins.
Deb is asked to imagine a set of stairs. With a gentle nod, the stairs are said to be old with a wooden bannister but stone as steps. They go upwards. I’m informed by Deb they are also in a cave.
Looking up these stairs Deb feels unsure on going up them.
I guide Deb to start going up these stairs a step at a time and by step 4 Deb
Is obviously becoming agitated. I ask Deb to relax a moment and to take a couple of deep breaths. Waiting a moment longer Deb was asked if she would like to continue. Answering yes I let her know that a map would need to be found that has been lost for a very long time. This map would also be looking for her. It would give an answer to a question that needed answering. (my feeling was that as discussed, would be as to why weight wanted to be lost from her body was not happening)Continuing, the top of the step was reached.
Now seeing a doorway, it was described as a simple dark opening. With a chair set aside the door as a safe retreat, Deb walked through this opening now just feeling curious. Having an acceptance of instruction that this door can be accessed at any time as it will be there on every step of this journey, Deb now found herself inside a dark room by herself. I asked Deb to notice a light switch just to her side, on the flick of this switch the lights came on.
A magnificent long hallway with the lighting being two large chandeliers was reported. Now in search of the map it was found already flat on a table ready to be looked at.
Its yellow in colour and I can see outlines of places but I don’t know what it means. At first I asked for Deb to allow the map to come more into focus though this was not happening. Can you feel what the map wants you to do? Yes! I need to find more stairs. On now walking down the hallway a door was noticed. Above was a sign which said STAIRS.
At this point the door wanted to be opened by Deb it was a simple white door pushed to open. Going through this door it was a room, very bright with beautiful colours all around. A spiral staircase in front of her, Deb walked down. I asked what she could feel. Just love and a sense of belonging was said. What do you see when looking down at your feet? Can’t see them. Can’t see my body, I feel very light. I am like a vapour a whisper of smoke, I asked Deb to explore were she was, instead of walking its now a floating forwards experience. Beautiful colours all around. I see someone, a bright light all around, the hood is very bright white light. The arms are outstretched welcoming me. I’m looking around and I see a number of busts on pedestals, all Greek Gods. A name has just been spoken to me. I heard LEVITICUS. I can see a banner with writing on it but can’t make it out. I said to take a moment and allow each word to come into focus. Yes first word is (WE). The full sentence becomes:-
WE ARE NOT NEPHILIM. As soon as the sentence is said out loud Deb said “the name JESUS has just been spoken to me.
I asked how she felt. Just feeling wanted and loved a beautiful feeling all over.
(On talking to Geoff over this session, it could have been taken further and healing could have been requested)
I decided now to begin the journey out of hypnosis.
Deb did not want to leave where she was. A suggestion of friends and family will need her to be with them, the journey began. Finally back at the bottom of the stone steps a count of 5 was suggested to open her eyes and feel amazing, through the count a realisation of how connected to spirit she was and how much love she attracts was suggested.
Back with me now with a real beaming smile and a very nice thank you to myself.
A coffee was offered to Deb and following me she noticed a canvas map hanging on the wall. This is the colour and design of the map I seen. Looking closer Deb said “I have to go to Peru” looking closer the exact place was shown on this map. Apparently a friend does live there.
