Answer: To start with all hypnosis is self hypnosis.... the fact that you failed means that you failed nothing more. the next time it may be fantastic.Try a couple of tapes/cds etc. for something you wish to do. in all probability they will work. make sure you have good stereo ear phones and a quiet safe place once you achieve trance state you are on the way. Using the format that that the recorded stuff used do your own script and have fun.If you need more help write!! do not try anything weird ,screwy or that pushes any of your personal buttons
