    [Self-Hypnosis] I Am Sovereign Unto Myself

    BHI Editorial TeamNovember 2, 2020

    I am sovereign unto myself.

    I am sovereign unto myself. I am the King/Queen of my castle. My kingdom is in my heart. My soul is my legacy. How I rule myself becomes the history of my life.

    I am responsible for my life. I have dominion over my lands. I take full responsibility for my choices. I have the final say in my world.

    My heart is the most benevolent ruler of my life. My heart is in charge. I make my wisest decisions from my heart. My heart rules over my mind. My mind is in service to my heart, like a loyal knight.

    When my heart stays enthroned, all is well in my world. My kingdom is safe. I keep vigilant watch over those parts of myself that would like to overthrow my heart.

    As King/Queen of my world, I keep my ego in check. Sometimes, I have to put my ego in the tower for a time out.

    Once my ego has been humbled and remembers its place as the keeper of the gate, order is restored. When it returns to its role as protector of the kingdom, my boundaries within and without are secure. I am safe.

    As I recognize the different archetypes within and the roles they play, I am able to keep my kingdom operating properly. I ensure that all aspects of my personality are in their proper roles.

    Today, I relish the fact that I am sovereign unto myself. I prioritize my responsibility to rule my life in a way that creates the fulfilling life I desire.

    Self-Reflection Questions

    1. How do I rule my life? Am I a just and benevolent ruler?

    2. How can I keep intruders from taking away my sovereignty?

    Educational Purpose — Boulder Hypnotherapy Institute provides hypnotherapy education and training. Completion of any BHI program does not guarantee employment, income, or clinical outcomes. Individual results vary based on effort, prior experience, and professional context.

    Licensure & Scope of Practice — Your scope of practice after training depends on your existing professional credentials, licensing board requirements, and jurisdiction. BHI training alone does not confer a license to practice therapy or counseling. Students are responsible for verifying that their use of hypnotherapy skills complies with applicable state and local regulations.

    Continuing Education — CE credits are approved by the National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC), ACEP No. 7691. CE eligibility and acceptance vary by licensing board and jurisdiction. Students should verify that NBCC-approved CEs satisfy their specific board's renewal requirements before enrolling. Programs designated as "0 CEs" do not offer continuing education credits.

    Payment Plans & Refunds — Payment plan enrollees are responsible for all scheduled installments regardless of continued participation. Full refund available within 14 days of enrollment (prior to program start), minus a registration fee of 10% of tuition or $100, whichever is less. After 14 days, tuition is held as a non-transferable credit valid for 18 months and may be applied toward any BHI program. Discounted or sale-priced purchases are final. The masterclass tuition credit is not considered a discounted purchase; the standard 14-day refund window still applies. See Refund Policy, Cancellation Policy, and Terms of Service for complete details.

    Testimonials — Student testimonials reflect individual experiences and are not guarantees of specific outcomes. Results vary based on individual effort, background, and circumstances.

    Boulder Hypnotherapy Institute has been approved by NBCC as an Approved Continuing Education Provider, ACEP No. 7691. Programs that do not qualify for NBCC credit are clearly identified. Boulder Hypnotherapy Institute is solely responsible for all aspects of the programs.
