HYPNOSIS STAIRS INDUCTION SCRIPT

The stairs hypnosis induction is used by almost all hypnotists in some form. You will find it in most hypnotic inductions and deepeners. This is because the stairs induction is simple and flexible. There are endless variations of it. The staircase induction technique can be used as a the initial hypnosis induction or as a deepener.

Stairs are familiar to everyone, so using them in an induction triggers memories in everyone. You can use any type of stairs, or don't mention them at all. Any physical action that involves going down can be used as a hypnosis deepener.

Here are two typical hypnosis stairs induction scripts that show how the technique is used. You can change it to suit your client, for example if they have a specific phobia, you alter the stairs to a moving walkway. Eventually, you will develop your own signature style of the hypnosis stairs script.

SPIRAL STAIR HYPNOSIS INDUCTION SCRIPT

Here is another example of the stairs induction, this time using a spiral staircase. This is particularly effective with children. It can be combined with a confusion induction and used to create trance in highly analytic clients. It can also be used after the actual induction as a trance deepener.

	DISSOCIATION DEEPENER
	And I wonder if you can feel yourself sinking gently into that chair, now.... and feeling yourself supported as if you are on a big fleecy cloud... and just drifting down and down...into that cloud.... feeling yourself going deeper and deeper... deeper and deeper...	I	Sensory
	Just allowing yourself to drift away now... nothing is important... nothing matters... and you can feel yourself going down and down..	D	Supposition
memory	And my voice can become whatever you want it be... my voice can become the sound of rain on the window on a winter's night.... or my voice can be the voice of a teacher... or a parent... or a friend... and my voice can be the wind blowing along an empty street.... in summer... or maybe... the wind is blowing along a street in autumn...		Dissociation
	And picks up a leaf and that leaf gets carried away .... here and there.... and it goes left and right.... and up and down... and that wind... carries the leaf safely and gently.... as it goes round and round... swirling and swooping....	V	Confusion
	And then it goes down... gently .... swirling round.... as if it is in a spiral stair case...	M
	And I wonder if you can imagine a spiral staircase.... the way the spiral staircase goes down and round and round... and you can imagine yourself on that spiral staircase... and you can imagine going down that spiral staircase.... and there can be a handrail and it's safe...		Visualization
	And you can count yourself down that spiral staircase.... and the first step is TEN... and the next step goes down deeper NINE... and EIGHT feeling more relaxed and more comfortable... and SEVEN drifting away... then SIX down and down..... really relax.... then FIVE deeper and deeper... and then FOUR... nothing matters.... nothing counts.... you have nothing to do... you don't have to do anything... you don't have to think.... listen... anything at all.... and then THREE nearing the bottom.... totally relaxed... then TWO ... almost there .... and ONE... gone down... into some warm dark place... where your mind can just drift away... if any thoughts come into your mind just let them go... like little puppies running away wagging their tails.... you can ignore them... they'll just go away... and then ONE... you're at the bottom... feeling really good... totally relaxed... and you can just enjoy that feeling of release and relaxation.... knowing that everything's OK and you're OK.... and there are no issues... nothing you have to do...		Countdown Pace with breathing
