A suggestion you might use after relaxation:
You are very, very, relaxed. There is something you want to do now. There is something you need an answer for and while you are relaxed you will present a question that you now have to your inner self for evaluation. Be objective about the question. The answer will come to you by tomorrow morning. For the next 2 minutes you will think about your question. When I speak to you again you will hear and respond to my voice.
