Accessing the True Self/Inner Self/Higher Self By Jack Elias


Do induction/relaxation + limb challenges, then:

As you enjoy this deeply relaxed state...allow the sound of my voice to guide you into just the right state of receptivity to easily become aware of the presence of your True Inner Self (or Higher self, etc.,)...scan your body with this relaxed awareness...notice any areas of tension and let them release...as you contemplate that what you are now doing for yourself is for your highest benefit...and your Higher Self is always present...whether or not you are consciously aware of it, now...to give you everything you need in the way of guidance and support to free you from those problems...those unnecessary limitations...that are getting ready to be released easily...in just the right way for you to keep whatever is of value for you, now...releasing, dissolving whatever needs to release the problems now...that's right...feel yourself breathing as you go even deeper into relaxation letting your unconscious mind handle the reevaluation of these problems in the healing, loving light of your Higher Self as you become aware of it now, in some way...or another...

Begin to have a sense...begin to become aware now...of your body being surrounded by a golden white light of pure loving energy...a golden white light surrounding your body now...becoming more apparent to you in many interesting ways...as breath by breath you feel good as you picture and imagine this light all around you, and you begin to recognize in a surprising and secure way that this light is full of intelligence and healing power...and it is welcoming you into its presence, now...in such a way that you are learning to remember, that it is always surrounding you...that it has always surrounded you...and from now on you can think about it and that causes your experience of the presence of your Higher Self to be enhanced...as you learn to listen to its guidance with more and more trust, now...with each relaxed breath...opening deeper to its healing energy...that's right... deeper... and... deeper... more and more... learning to trust your own true inner goodness... your own true inner goodness...

((Option "As you do so this light begins to lift you up...lifting you up higher and higher into the presence of your Higher Self")) ...think about all the ways you used to think you weren't worthy of contacting this inner goodness as they dissolve into the light that is surrounding you (

(Option: "as you feel yourself being lifted higher and higher...opening more and more"))... offer any doubts or hesitations into this light in such a way that you sense them becoming obsolete and then dissolving as you breathe the light into your being to be carried to every cell of your body right along with the oxygen you breathe...being delivered effortlessly by your unconscious mind whether or not you think about it consciously now...relax with the feeling of this goodness gently touching every part of your being...bringing healing, rejuvenating energy everywhere that it is needed... ((Option: "as you move still higher almost up to the realm of your Higher Self...")) and you get to share in this process by taking a wonderful breath as you imagine this light, this healing, loving energy spreading throughout your being, now...breath by... breath... deeper... easily...effortlessly...with each breath...deeper... that's right... ((Option: "it's spreading through you deeper and deeper as you rise higher and higher...")) dissolving whatever thoughts or feelings may arise, whether bad or good, into this healing light...allowing... offering all your thoughts... all your feelings into this light to be healed and transformed in just the right ways for your own highest benefit, now...that's right...((Option: "completely ready now to arrive in the presence of your Higher Self on the count of three:.. one... two ...three...there now..."))

If you find that the client has not sensed the light, in fact, if he tells you that your suggestions have caused him to experience a lot of doubtful or negative thoughts, tell him that that is good. Tell him, The light has simply come to you as requested and highlighted negativities that need to be seen through and released. Once the client understands that he has simply been caught by a habit pattern of focusing on negativities, missing all the underlying goodness and power, he can gently shift his awareness to the background light.

Imagine yourself standing easily erect and at ease in the presence of your Higher Self surrounded by this loving energy...recognize that this is the unconditional love of your own inner purity... the true integrity of your being that is so pure, so free that it is not tainted or diminished by anything you have ever thought or said or done...it is not tainted or diminished by anything that has been thought, said or done about you or to you by anyone else...as you think about this now... your unconscious mind, in the energizing aura of your Higher Self, completely and effortlessly reevaluates all your life experiences, beliefs, and attitudes in such a way that you are released from whatever you need to be released from in order to come into total alignment with the purity of your Higher Self in such a way that it flows unobstructed throughout your being, now...breathe that in...that's right... and again...even deeper...as your unconscious mind also keeps everything that is truly of value to you from your life experience and learnings that make it easy for you...now...to come into full, open alignment with the presence and energy of your Higher Self...your true being...
Imagine a stream of golden white light streaming into the top of your head from the source of infinite, loving, healing intelligence... Imagine it flowing down into your heart (Pause)…filling your heart with loving, healing energy (Repeat; Pause) … that begins now to radiate throughout your entire body...throughout your being...permeating every cell of your being with this infinite healing, loving energy (Pause)…that recognizes your true needs even if you yourself haven’t yet consciously recognized them (Pause)…Relax into this light and allow it to lift these needs out of your being, to present them into the loving intelligence of this light as offerings and requests for purification, healing, and enlightenment…powerful, genuine learnings of all kinds… (Pause)…for the sake of your highest benefit and the highest benefit of all beings...Open to this...Make an inner gesture with your whole heart and soul that this be so, now (Pause)…and relax into the light...feeling it permeating and surrounding your body in a protective and magnetic aura that draws these blessings to you.

As you experience these wonderful, relaxed feelings...thinking whatever thoughts that are being exposed in the light of your Higher Self...you can now ask questions of your Higher Self...carrying on an inner dialogue and an inner communion in any way you wish...I will remain silent for 5 minutes or until you signal me that you are ready to go on by raising the index finger of your right hand...if you understand raise the index finger of your right hand now.

Repeat if you get no response. It is possible to compose questions with the client before hand and state them for the client aloud, eliciting verbal responses from the client about the answers received.
[In a moment I will count from 1 to 5 bringing you back to normal waking consciousness on the count of five...understand that all you have learned and experienced in this session will continue to grow in beneficial ways in your being, generating new and deeper bonds between your True Self and your ordinary waking consciousness, your dream consciousness, and your deep sleep state in such a way that you are more and more awake to your own inner goodness, expressing it more and more easily, joyfully and in all ways appropriately for the highest benefit of yourself and all beings now and moment by moment, day by day into your future.] ((Repeat section within brackets [ ])
Count client out

One...beginning to come back...
Two...coming back more and more...all the energy and learnings of this experience being effortlessly, enjoyably absorbed into your being...being absorbed into every cell of your body...
Three...moving your fingers and toes...(repeat)...more and more awake.. coming back...carrying these new learnings and empowerments into your future...starting now...
Four...breathe in wakeful energy...that's right...breathe in wakeful energy...clearing your head...balancing your energies...feeling wonderful in every way... Five...open your eyes...fully coming back...fully back...wide awake...that's right

Regarding "rising up" options in script: There are certain archetypal precedents for relating "up" to Heaven and the superconscious level, and "down" to earth and the subconscious level. This imagery can be intuitively compelling for the psyche. You may want to experiment with using the image of rising up for access to the Higher Self, and see if you get different results. On the other hand, "As above, so below." There is an equally compelling pull to go deep inside, to the Heart of Hearts, to find the True/Higher Self. I like to combine images:

Feeling this light shining down on you from high above you...as you feel it radiating out from deep inside you...shining down from high above...radiating from deep inside...permeating your whole being.
