The TranceFormation
Codex
A clear, honest guide to the arts behind the work – hypnosis, hypnotherapy, NLP and transformational coaching. Written for the curious, the careful and the quietly sceptical alike.
This is education, not treatment – and never something done to anyone. Everything here begins and ends with consent.
The Covenant
Every art in this Codex is only as good as the ethic that holds it. Power over the mind – your own or anyone else's – is a responsibility before it is a skill. Read this part first. The rest only makes sense inside it.
Before anything is offered, one question is asked: would the person feel genuinely good about this if they could see the whole of it? If the honest answer is anything other than yes, it is not done. You are not broken and you are not a project to be fixed – you arrive already whole, already resourceful. The work simply helps you reach what is already yours.
The Five Arts
The work draws on five related disciplines. They overlap and reinforce one another – but each answers a different question. Tap any art to explore what it is, what it is for, and what it is not.
I don’t know what’s been keeping you awake at 3am.But I have spent a career learning the language of the patterns that do – and how to help you change them.
The version of you that runs the room and the version that goes quiet in the car afterwards answer to the same hidden operating system. This is not another life hack stacked on the noise. It is precise, private work at the source – with the patterns that have been running the show without your permission.
Five arts, one pair of hands – tap any to see it in full. No covert tricks, no theatre, everything with your consent, which is exactly why it lasts.
Skills I have acquired over a very long career – skills that make me a nightmare for the patterns keeping you stuck.
Book a private 30 minutesThe Map of Becoming
Change tends to move through recognisable stages. This is a way of understanding your own process – not a ladder to climb on a deadline. Tap a stage to see what tends to happen there, and where people often get stuck.
The Web of Ideas
Few ideas in this work stand alone – they gather into families. Tap a family to browse it, then tap any idea to open it: a plain-language explanation, how and why it works, when and where it shows up, and the threads it connects to.
Reflective Self-Inquiry
A few quiet questions to notice where you are today. These are prompts for reflection – not a test, a score, or any kind of clinical assessment. Nothing is recorded or sent anywhere.
Gentle Practices
Simple, safe self-practices you can explore on your own. The deeper change work – anything touching trauma, memory or old wounds – belongs in a session with a trained practitioner who can hold the space; those are marked clearly.
The Pathway Finder
Answer two gentle questions and the Codex will suggest where your attention might go – and which conversation is worth having.
The Archetypes
Drawn from Jung's depth psychology: recurring patterns we all carry. Reading them is a way to understand yourself with more compassion – not to label or box anyone in.
The Map of States
Hypnosis is not an on-off switch. It is a continuum of absorption – a voluntary shift in the relationship between your conscious mind, your body and your subconscious. The Arons Depth Scale divides this continuum into seven observable stages, each with its own signature. Tap any stage to open it.
Two things worth knowing first. There is no “better” depth – light hypnosis can do profound work, and the therapeutic sweet spot is often the middle stages. And Stage 1 is the same twilight you pass through drifting into or out of sleep – the natural doorway in.
This page does not measure your state, induce anything, or change your brain. Every stage is entered willingly and is reversible at any moment. Reading it changes nothing in you – it simply explains the terms.
The Obstacles
Most guides only describe the smooth path. These are the snags almost everyone meets – what they look like, why they happen, and how people move through them. Tap to open each.
The Companion Journal
Choose a prompt or write freely. Anything you type stays on this device only – it is never saved to a server or sent anywhere.
The Lexicon
Plain-language definitions of the concepts behind the work. Search by name, art or idea.
These are explanations of what each method is – not instructions for performing it. Methods marked “in session” are practitioner-led and belong in supported, consensual settings.
The door is you.
If anything here met something true in you, the next step is simply a conversation. No pressure, no commitment – just thirty quiet minutes to see what's possible.
The TranceFormation Codex is offered for education and reflection. It is not therapy, diagnosis or treatment, and reading it is not a substitute for professional care. If you are struggling or in distress, please reach out to a qualified professional or your GP.
