Part 3 - Enhancement
Self-hypnosis will work only if you have the willpower to continue practicing it
for a long period of time. Self-hypnosis also requires additional lifestyle changes
in order to enhance its effects. For example, waking up every morning and
repeating to yourself the goals you want to achieve in self-hypnosis will go a
long way toward helping with the actual self-hypnosis process. Like any method,
you need to stop giving in to the urges that compelled you to try self-hypnosis in
the first place. For example, if you are using hypnosis to quit smoking, then you
need to be able to abstain from smoking no matter how tempting it is. If that
means using nicotine patches, e-cigarettes, gum or other smoking cessation aids,
then do it. The same applies to other behaviors, responses or challenges you’re
trying to address with hypnosis. Be true to your goal and endeavor to be more

aware of the places that need improvement.
Post-self-hypnosis session, make sure you uphold and honor the statements you
made while under hypnosis. Visualize yourself achieving your ultimate goal and
use that vision as your motivator for those occasions on which you feel tempted
to slip back into the habit, or behavior you’re trying to break.
Tips for a better a self-hypnosis session
While performing self-hypnosis, it is essential to be able to make connections
that you can work on after the session. Following are a few tips to make your
hypnosis session even more effective.

Anchor points
Anchor points are spots on your body, chosen by you, to help trigger relaxation.
While creating an anchor point, think of something or someone that induces a
sense of calm. 
Then, imagine that you are in that place/doing that activity/seeing that scene, or
with that person. Focus on the sense of calm this visualization engenders in you
and touch a point of your choosing as the anchor point. As you touch the point,
reinforce that sense of calm by repeating to yourself that you are now completely
relaxed. This anchor point should be in a place on your body which is easily
accessible to you. The back of the neck would be a bad place for an anchor
point, as it’s less accessible and requires more movement to reach than say, the
palm of your hand.
When starting a session, close your eyes and touch the anchor point. Slowly and
deliberately count backwards from ten. Similarly, when ending a session, count
backwards and open your eyes.
