Blushing
Using the Ruler Method, blushing can be
controlled both in an out of hypnosis. . .Imagine a ruler standing two metres from the ground, with the numbers from
one hundred down to zero etched on it.
A pointer which can slide easily, up or down, measures your unconscious rate of
comfort. When you are very calm and relaxed the pointer will be way down,
probably somewhere between zero and ten and when you are tense and uptight the
pointer will soar up to near a hundred.
In this state of deep relaxation, look at the pointer and tell me the number it
points to.
(wait for response)
Good. Now I’d like you to think of a recent, embarrassing situation, one that
made you feel tense inside, remember how you could feel the blood rising up into
your face as your face began to redden.
Now look at the ruler and tell me the number it points to.
Good. That’s fine. Now let that memory go, its done with, its past, it doesn’t
worry you any more, let it go. Relax even deeper than before, calm, and relax.
Now look at the ruler again and see how the pointer has dropped. Tell me the
number. Good.
You’re going to find that you can always feel calmer and more relaxed when the
pointer is down. And I want you to practice this for the future, lowering the
pointer, down, and down and down.
And as the pointer goes down to a lower number, perhaps lower than ever before,
you become more comfortable, perhaps, than ever before, calmer and more relaxed,
more confident, more in control. And if you find, in the future, that you begin
to redden from embarrassment, all you need to do is mentally lower the pointer,
down and down and down.
And as you do this, your face quickly cools down and returns to its normal
color.
