Find your life's purpose

What is life for? What is the purpose of life? This hypnosis script uses a hypnotic metaphor for letting go of the past, to visualize the past as something you can change and give meaning to your life. The metaphor reconnects to the good parts of your life, wipes out the bad memories, and lets you find meaning in what happened. This lets you find the purpose of your life.

The basic metaphor concept is a corridor of rooms full of memories. Some rooms have happy memories and some have bad memories. The script works to show you the purpose of life and shut off the bad memories.

	I once had an old friend who liked to go for walks... walks around town... walks in the country... walks by the shore...and no matter where you are... my friend said... you can always find a pleasant walk ....	I	Dissociation
Memory	And I wonder if you can remember a time...when you went for a walk ... somewhere nice... just for relaxation... maybe by a river... or in the country... or it could be a park or somewhere like that		Invoke memories of relaxation
Memory	and maybe if you closed your eyes you can remember how pleasant it is... enjoying that feeling you get ...when you are amongst trees and grass and things you like... and far away from things that might disturb you...	I	Time congruency
Memory	... people remember different things... the breeze in your hair... the swish of your clothes as you walk ... the warm sun on your face... maybe the feel of soft earth under your feet... the smell of new cut grass or country air... sounds of the outdoors... freedom... times like that can make you feel so good...		using all the modalities Truism
	and maybe if you take a deep breath now you can feel that feeling... that relaxation... now... as you breathe out...		Breathing = relaxing
	and with each gentle breath out you might like to wonder how relaxed you can become... and you might be feeling that relaxation starting... and spreading...		Breathing induction
	and sometimes in times like that you find your mind drifting away...	I	Dissociation
	to some place away from here... and you find yourself on a gravel path... and you can feel the gravel crunching under your feet... you can hear each step... as you go along comfortably... wondering where this path might take you... and all around there's sunshine... trees... flowers... everything is calm ... and there's a sense of quiet and expectancy...		Seeding 'comfortable'
	and the path goes along and down into a dell... you have to go down a number of steps... and each step takes you down... deeper and deeper... you go down each step... and counting... Five... deeper and deeper... Four... deeper and more relaxed... three... deeper and deeper... Two... so relaxed... One.... maybe more relaxed than you have ever been in your whole life...		Countdown deepener
	Changing the past
	and then you find yourself in a large... grassy area... a dell... it's quiet... and up ahead you can see a small building...
	it looks welcoming... and you continue across the grass... and you become aware of your feet... making footprints in the dew... Everything seems fresh, clean , new... You walk up to the building... It's a very old fashioned style... almost like something out of a an old book... and right in the middle is a door... and you look at that door ... and wonder... where it might lead... and you reach out your hand and you turn the handle in that door... you push it open and it swings open soundlessly... and there... to your surprise... the door opens on to a long corridor...		footprints = the trace of where you came from
	it’s amazing such a small building has such a long corridor... you realize that there is something special about this building... and you realize there is something you haven't seen before... above the door some writing has been carved into it... and you go forward into that corridor... and away in the distance... at the end of the corridor...you can see another door... that door is brightly lit and looks welcoming...
	and along each side of the corridor there are many doors... and each of those doors is open just a crack... just a little... and as you go along that corridor... you look at each door...and you stop in front of the door.... and you bend your head... and you listen... and you realize that each of those doors... opens into an area of your life... starting from your very earliest years... going up and up and up... through each stage of your life... and you realize that if you listen closely... you can hear people talking... or there might be a scent... a col our... a feeling... something that reminds you so strongly... of that time and place... of that situation... of what is going on now behind that door...		Locate a memory
	and each of those doors... if you want to... will open on to a situation... and if it is a pleasant situation you can go through that door... and get in contact with it and enjoy it... almost as if you were there again.... and if it is not... then you can put your hand on the handle of that door... and pull it closed... and lock it.
	And what you can do now... standing at the entrance of that corridor... and all those doors there... you can go along... examine all the doors on the left and the doors on the right... and pause in front of each door... and determine whether that door ... opens on to a situation... which is pleasant... or one that you would rather forget about...
RULE	because you know... you don't have to remember everything... there are things you can choose to forget... and there are things you can choose to remember...
