Stress and Anxiety Are Among the Top Reasons People Choose Hypnosis

Stress in a modern world is a part of everyday life. In small doses, stress can be beneficial.  Stress motivates us, we take action and are often more productive as a result.

The problem is the pace of life today is getting faster and faster and that puts the body under more and more stress.  Deadlines, traffic, bills…you name it. Daily stress has become a part of life.

When we experience constant and strong responses to stress, it goes from beneficial motivation and moves into the realm of anxiety.

Anxiety is a Feeling of Extreme Apprehension or Fear

You may not be aware of or consciously know the source of this uneasiness and discomfort.  This makes you feel even more unsettled and stressed sending the body into the sympathetic nervous system – where fight and flight responses are triggered.

Hypnosis is a process that takes you into a deep state of relaxation. When the body is relaxed then your breathing slows down allowing you to enter the parasympathetic nervous system.  This shift signals to the brain that there is no stress (no lions chasing you) and this turns off the stress response and hormones. 

You do not need to live with overwhelming levels of stress and anxiety. If you are ready to take the first step towards living a more peaceful and relaxed life, request your complimentary consultation today.

Reduce Automatic Thoughts That Cause Anxiousness With Hypnosis

Anxiety is one of the most common psychological issues around the world and one of the top reasons people turn to hypnosis. The great news here is that hypnosis can be a very effective tool for managing anxiety.

How?

For many people, anxiety is learned subconsciously. It’s a pattern, or habit, we developed.  And if we can create habits – we do that all the time – we can uncreate them.

If you suffer from anxiety, it’s very possible you’ve conditioned yourself to react to stressful situations in a particular way.  The physiological signs of anxiety are pretty common across people – we “do” our emotions in largely the same way.

Hypnotherapy allows you to reframe and release these automatic responses (or habits) you’ve adopted. You’ll learn to replace them with more helpful ways to think and act when triggered. Through hypnosis, you can begin to gain greater control over your response to previously stressful situations and empower the mind to respond instead of react in fight or flight.

During a hypnosis session we work to replace distracting negative thoughts with empowering and positive thoughts that the subconscious adopts.  When you leave your session you also walk away with suggested strategies and specialized tools called anchors you can use to instantly calm yourself in a stressful situation.  

Over time, hypnosis can change your perception of formerly stressful situations and help you build confidence to deal with stress and anxiety in the future.
