Magical TV is a visualization that children and adults alike can identify with, you can use a video mind recorder to allow the subject to project into the future or rewind to view past incidents....

Ask child to close eyes until you tell him to open them. Ask him about his favorite TV programme, then when he has finished telling you, ask him about the part of the TV programme that he enjoys most of all.

Continue with: “In a moment, with your eyes closed, you will begin seeing your favorite TV programme. You will feel calm, relaxed, peaceful and safe. Okay, I’m turning on the TV now, and in your mind you will see your favorite programme on the screen. You will hear the sounds and have the feelings, and really enjoy watching your favorite programme. You can continue watching that TV programme by keeping your eyes closed. You don’t need to listen to what I’m saying, you’re just continuing to relax and enjoy that special programme by keeping your eyes closed until I tell you to open them and to wake up.”

At this point, you may want to test the state of the child. You can achieve this by saying. “As you watch your show, one of your fingers on your right/left hand moves straight out”. (Wait for a response).

If this method is to be used (with older children) as a problem solving strategy, continue with:

“In just a moment that programme will finish and we will change the channel. You will continue moving into an even deeper state. You will be seeing a programme that will show you how to overcome that problem and get rid of it completely.” (Pause) “Your favorite programme has ended now and I’m changing the channel. You’re continuing to feel more peaceful, and now you’re seeing a programme that is showing what has been causing that problem, and how easily you’re getting rid of that problem. . . . . the picture is becoming more clear . . you’re understanding it, and realizing that you are overcoming the problem completely.
