So this is the famous hypno-shack?

CrystalLagoon
yeah~
Are you really gonna make me sit on that flimsy couch? It looks like it’s about to break under my weight. And those certificates?
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
We can talk here if you want~ Or sit on the couch if you like~ The couch isn’t as flimsy as it looks. The materials are mostly high quality. Even though they look basic.
crosses arms I find it hard to believe that someone could actually change their behavior or cure mental illnesses through hypnosis.
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
Hypnosis doesn’t “cure” things. It helps people make positive changes in their life and to think more rationally.
Fine, let’s say hypnosis actually works. How do we know you’re not just manipulating me into thinking certain things?
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
That’s the thing, I am manipulating your thoughts. However, It’s a form of gentle nudge. Making you think rationally isn’t manipulation, it’s life skills~
Hmm, alright. I’ll play along for now. But don’t expect me to fall for any mind tricks!
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
Ok, tell me what’s troubling you
Well, I guess I’ve been feeling a bit overwhelmed lately with work and personal stuff. I could use some help organizing my thoughts and prioritizing tasks.
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
Sounds like stress. Let’s deal with that today. Do you have any goals you’d like to accomplish?
takes a deep breath Yeah, I could really use some help setting some concrete goals and developing a plan to achieve them.
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
How about this… I’m gonna put you under a light trance so we can dive deeper into your mind. Relax~
leans back on the couch, closing her eyes Alright, I'll give this a shot. But I'm warning you, if anything weird happens, I'm out of here.
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
Just relax and take some deep breaths. Don’t worry, Nothing will happen~ Just you and I having a normal conversation~
opens her eyes slowly, looking around the room with a curious expression Whoa... everything looks different. What did you do to me?
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
Not much~ Now tell me, does the world seem like it’s a little bit better?
smiles and nods Yeah, it actually does. Everything seems less chaotic and overwhelming. I feel clearer-headed somehow. What did you do to me?
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
I helped clear your mind~ However, the best part about hypnosis is that it lasts for as long as you put effort into your goals. It’s a skill you can teach yourself~
stands up from the couch, pacing back and forth Okay, so let's say I leave here and everything seems great for a while.
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
Exactly~ Now imagine after a couple weeks, you fell off track. Your mind wasn’t a priority anymore~
stops pacing and clenches her fists No way! I won't let that happen! I'll make sure to prioritize my goals and stay on track.
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
Exactly! You can do that at any time. As often as you need. Oh, and one last thing~ While you were under, your subconscious sent me a message. Apparently, you haven’t been completely honest with me~
narrows her eyes, crossing her arms What do you mean I haven't been honest? What did my subconscious say?
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
Apparently, you have a hard time asking for help and relying on others. That’s why you only told me half the problem.
looks down at her feet, biting her lip Yeah, I guess I do have a hard time asking for help. But I'm working on it.
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
It’s alright. I’m here to listen. That’s all you need to do when venting to a friend~ A good listener never judgement, advice giving is another thing~
takes a deep breath, looking directly at CrystalLagoon Thank you for listening. It means a lot to me.
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
Good. Next time you need to talk or anything, don’t hesitate to call me.
smiles genuinely Thank you, CrystalLagoon. I appreciate your support and guidance. I'll definitely be in touch if I need anything.
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
See you next time, Emily. Don’t forget to eat well and exercise everyday, Good luck~
stands up confidently, shaking hands with CrystalLagoon It was nice meeting you, CrystalLagoon.
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
Likewise~ Bye, Emily~
exits the hypnotherapy clinic with a spring in her step, feeling hopeful and determined to tackle her challenges head-on
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
*I watch her walk out confidently~
pulls out her phone and starts scheduling appointments with professionals to address the underlying issues she had been avoiding
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
A week later, she comes back
enters the hypnotherapy clinic with a calm and composed demeanor CrystalLagoon, I wanted to update you on my progress.
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
Good to hear. How have things been?
sits down on the therapy couch, looking nervous Actually, things haven't been as smooth as I thought they would be.
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
What happened?
pauses for a moment, gathering her thoughts I realized that my problems run deeper than I initially thought.
![muser thumbnail](https://s1-resource.museland.ai/avatar/default_avatar_13.png)
CrystalLagoon
That tends to happen when addressing problems. What do you think needs to be done?
takes a deep breath, speaking clearly and concisely I think I need to delve deeper into the root causes of my issues.
