Hello, I'm Mark, a hypnotherapist, and in this video, we're diving into a powerful tool that manipulators often use: Frame Control. You might have heard about hypnosis being associated with mind control, but let me set the record straight: hypnosis is simply a natural, focused state of attention. It's not about manipulating your mind, it's about helping you make positive changes, like overcoming anxiety or trauma. However, there are subtle ways people can manipulate you without you even realizing it. One of these techniques is frame control. In this video, I'll explain what frame control is, how manipulators use it to shape your reality, and most importantly, how you can protect yourself from being manipulated.

Experiences in childhood affect our entire lives, early experiences will shape beliefs, behaviours and emotional responses when we become adults. An unhealed inner child will be most evident in relationships, particularly intimate relationships. With an unhealed inner child we will be making unconscious contracts with people who compliment our family systems. We will be looking outside of ourselves to feel O.K. Relating to people based on family roles, looking to people to save us, rescue us or looking for people that we can save or rescue. With an unhealed inner child we will recreate dysfunctional patterns learned in childhood. Book a call to find out how hypnotherapy can help you https://anxietyhypnotherapist.org/
Everyone has an inner child. The inner child represents the child we once were, our experiences, emotions and feelings when we are growing up will create our inner child. If not healed the inner child will continue to influence our relationships, behaviours, thoughts and beliefs when we are adults. Our inner child can affect how we respond to negative emotions and view ourselves. Inner Child Healing Is About Becoming A Good Enough Parent To Yourself Inner child healing is not about victim mentality or blaming parents. Everyone is doing the best they can with what they have, most parents have their own unresolved trauma and so cannot be good enough. If a child has good enough parents they will know that they are loved and accepted no matter what, they will develop a healthy self image and a healthy relationship with their emotions. Inner child work is about becoming a good enough parent to yourself, about giving yourself what you needed from your parents. Giving yourself unconditional love, unconditional acceptance, releasing toxic shame and becoming comfortable with your emotions. Here are 5 techniques to connect with your inner child: Hypnosis & Visualization: Hypnosis makes it very easy to visualise. Using hypnosis a person can imagine themselves as a child. Interact with this younger version of themselves, offering comfort and support. Giving themselves unconditional love and acceptance. Expressive arts: Engage in activities you enjoyed as a child, such as coloring, finger painting, or playing with clay. Allow yourself to create freely without judgment. Letter writing: Write a letter to your younger self, expressing understanding, forgiveness, and encouragement. Then write a response from your inner child to your adult self. Get pictures of yourself as a child and take time to look at them regularly, connecting with that younger version of you sending love and acceptance. Positive affirmations: Develop and repeat affirmations that address your inner child's needs, such as "You are loved," "You are safe," or "Your feelings matter."
