Hypno Hippo
Goes to Sleep
a guided relaxation bedtime story
Hypno Hippo Goes to Sleep uses the basic principles of hypnosis - including visualization, counting, breathwork, and positive suggestion to help children fall asleep both easily and peacefully.
​
This guided relaxation bedtime story gives you ample pages to read, although you may be surprised how quickly you begin to relax while your audience drifts off to sleep!
​
Speak with a calm, soothing voice and become quieter as the story progresses. Most of all, simply enjoy this sweet time of cozy relaxation together.
​
P.S.
Reading this book will not give you the ability to make your child 'cluck like a chicken.' However, it will provide important tools to help them experience the best sleep imaginable!

“A true family treasure. I had the pleasure of reading Hypno Hippo Goes to Sleep at a friend's house today. I don't have little ones but I was so intrigued by the concept of hypnotherapy aiding in and relaxing a child to a restful nights sleep. I loved the story, humor and the playful illustrations! I read the book to my husband and can honestly say I was relaxed and my husbands eyes were heavy. I can see the benefit this book will provide for countless families and for generations to come."
