Andrew Johnson wants help you relax. He’s an online hypnotherapist and designer of a wildly popular series of hypnotherapy apps and mp3s.
\n
\n
\nToday, we talk about how to use relaxation techniques, including hypnosis and guided meditation, to change habits and improve quality of life.
\n
\nWe also contrast the mental state of relaxation produced by hypnosis or guided meditation from that of simple mindfulness techniques and the memory palace technique I discussed with Anthony Metivier in the previous episode, which I’m using while I’m interviewing Anthony, as I mention during our conversation (“the beach in Greece”). Anthony is a “non-visualizer”, while I’m at the other end of the spectrum.
\n
\nAnthony also takes us through a simple “aliveness” meditation inspired by Eckhart Tolle, which you can use to help you focus, relax and feel more at home in your body.
