  • Title: Mindful Self-Hypnosis for Self-Care: An Integrative Model and Illustrative Case Example.
    Author: Elkins GR, Roberts RL, Simicich L.
    Journal: Am J Clin Hypn; 2018 Jul; 61(1):45-56. PubMed ID: 29771220.
    Abstract:
    The combination of mindfulness and self-hypnosis could provide a tool that is easily implemented by individuals who want to care for their well-being in times of high stress. Each discipline has been shown to be effective in relieving stress, and integration could further facilitate change while creating a tool that is highly accessible. There are many similarities between the two practices, such as focusing of attention and the emphasis on mind-body connection. However, important distinctions in psychological (e.g., self-monitoring) and neural (e.g., functional connectivity) elements are noted. A theory of how integrated mindful self-hypnosis may create change is presented. An illustrative case example of mindful self-hypnosis practice and a self-hypnosis transcript are provided.
