Talking with it, and gently inviting it to let go of that old vigilance, offers a way of reassuring the protective part of your own mind that the danger has passed. Near the well, a chrysalis on the brickwork becomes a reminder that transformation already happened once, and the well itself becomes an image of an endless supply of optimism rather than an old source of despair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt runs about eighteen minutes, and many people come back to it whenever that old vigilance starts creeping in again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"episode-backlink\"\u003eListen to \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/thehypnotistpodcast.com\/episode\/the-hypnotic-phoenix-and-the-well-of-optimism\/\"\u003eThe Hypnotic Phoenix and the Well of Optimism\u003c\/a\u003e free on The Hypnotist Podcast.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr class=\"product-disclaimer-rule\"\u003e\u003cp class=\"product-disclaimer\"\u003e\u003csmall\u003eThese sessions are for relaxation and personal empowerment.
