5 ways Hypnosis can help you conquer Anxiety

Hypnosis can help with anxiety in many ways.

1.Systematic relaxation.
What’s is unique about hypnosis that it really helps the client to relax. To calm their nervous system.
The sympathetic nervous system is what’s gets us anxious, the parasympathetic is what calms us back down. I
 still find it amazing seeing a client  learning to control their anxiety. Sometimes a client will say " I haven't relaxed like that in years" Even after taking medication or attending relaxation classes, Hypnosis uses deepners help your nervous system stand down. 
So by using deep breathing, visualisation, positive suggestions you are helped to activate the parasympathetic. Often reaching very deep states of calmness. Training your amygdala to switch off.Talking therapy can be very helpful.but often not enough. So using practical solution focused amygdala desensitisation techniques along with talking therapy,creates much better results.
Of course we need some anxiety and stress in life, to keep us Sharpe. But when it becomes toxic. Its counterproductive. And what we practice get better at.

2.Suggestions Therapy
So as we relax we are more ready to except new positive suggestions. It’s easier to challenge old toxic negative thoughts. This is similar to cognitive therapy CBT. But sometimes with CBT clients can see how to change how they think, but not always how they feel. Hypnosis works on both levels. How we speak to ourselves is so important. We need to be mindful of our internal dialog. How we think can become our reality.

Revivification
In trance you can emotionally relieve a happy memory. Thus releasing happy hormones. Changing how you feel. Then future pacing the feeling. Seeing yourself in the future with this calm, confident feelings/thoughts.
This is a technique I use a lot with great success. Clients often love this technique the most. It can help you  to FEEL good so quickly. So for someone  who has been suffering from anxiety , being able to relax and feel good is so important for them. Powerful state management technique.
Negative revivification can help you identify and change subconscious programs.

Solution focused
Get in touch with your. inner resources. Amplify them. Help you to become solution focused. Instead of focusing on the problem. And of course being more relaxed helps a great deal. Being solution focused as opposed to being problem focused actually changes how your brain works.

I still find it amazing seeing a client  learning to control their anxiety. Sometimes a client will say " I haven't relaxed like that in years" Even after taking medication or attending relaxation classes, Hypnosis uses Deepeners to help your nervous system stand down. The Elman induction is a great way to a achieve this, Then that state is anchored and the subconscious is trained to apply this state in any situation that is required. Of course other helpful states can also be accessed eg ,confidence ,motivation ,belief ,etc.. Remember what your mind has created your mind can undo. Neuro science has shown that are minds are most plastic then we though, so were always learning all through our lives. Hypnosis helps open that gateway

Hypno- analysis [psychoanalysis]
Using hypnosis to regress back to memories and events that shape our present beliefs and feelings.
Sometimes events of our past haven't been properly or fully worked through. Sometimes called the frozen present. Theses events in our past can be running negative programmes in our subconscious mind. For some reason we just cant shake a belief or feeling about ourselves. Even though logically we know they aren't true. So by accessing and re-framing these events with the wisdom of now, the past subconscious programmes are identified and let behind. If you can see it, you don't have to be it. We can carry these feelings around for years. But once given the chance ,we can let go of them as quick as they came.

Hypnosis for Teenagers



In the last 5 years I have been treating more and more teenagers for issues of Anxiety, stress, low self esteem. Sometimes these issues cause these young clients to miss a lot of school. Parents ask me "do I work with teenager, will hypnosis work for someone of that age" I do understand why they ask this. But in my experience Teenagers usually respond quicker than adults. The teenage years is a great time of neuro plasticity, the brains ability to change. They don't have the same amount of baggage as an adult. Even though they are suffering they don't have as much Sinicism as us adults. A 15 year will often change their minds so often about their interests. This ability  for change can be greatly utilised in therapy. Often the teenage client comes in with the attitude , I'm here to let go of this issue. They often seem to fully engage and respond to the techniques. Even if they've been traumatized , their belief in the ability for positive change is very strong. They often expect it to work. Even if they don't show this at first. They have an incredible ability to create new neural pathways. Of course everyone responds at different rate, no one client is the same .In short the teenage years is a great time for positive change when pointed in the right direction.

MEDS IS NOT ALWAYS THE ANSWER FOR ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION ?



Mon, Jun 11, 6:44 PM (4 days ago)
This is my answer to a discussion on YouTube about the use of Meds[medication]
for the treatment of anxiety, depression,
So much of what she is saying makes sense.Of course some people do need meds. But for me shouldn't always be the first choice. Sometimes proper appropriate therapy with exercise and nutrition can often be an alternative. Or can be used in conjunction with meds. Ive seen hypnosis successfully help clients without meds. Although some clients do need them. With anxiety and depression talking therapy is very powerfully but often psycho sensory therapy is needed. Clients often ring me saying that they've done a lot of talk therapy, but they still feel anxious or depressed. So I help clients to desensitize their nervous system. These are active psychotherapy techniques, not talking therapy . Simply put helping the client using hypnosis to manage their emotional states.To reach deep states of relaxation and calm, to get their body and mind to release their own brains endorphins, So they can FEEL CALMER ,opposite of anxiety. So they can FEEL BEETER, opposite of feeling depression. Then combine this with CBT and other talking therapies. So hypnotherapy can help you replace antidepressants with your own brains antidepressants. Im not saying this is like magic, everyone responds at a different rate. It is not like what you see on a TV hypnosis show, Hypnosis helps you to help yourself. In my 10 yrs of practice, ive seen many people successfully treat their anxiety or depression without meds, or at a reduced level. This is something I feel passionate about. Im always learning, my mind is never closed.
As science moves forward the meds will have less side effects. But ultimately the cure lies within. You cant medicate a negative bias way of thinking.

Can everybody be hypnotised


Can everybody be hypnotised?




The short answer is  yes. Trance is a natural we fall into several times a day.
When was the last time you've been in a hypnotic trance? When you first woke up this morning , when you drift off while reading or watching the TV . Just before you fall asleep.
These are all trance states. We even drive to work in trance, if you are driving the same way every day. You get the idea.
Sometimes we go deep, sometimes gentle.
The myth that only some people can be  hypnotised comes from watching stage hypnosis.
Stage shows seen on TV where someone is brought into the deepest level, and then performs some comedy act that their not aware of.
In this context  only some people can be hypnotised this deep and be manipulated to think they are a chicken. This is called somnambulism .
But for clinical hypnosis, it isn't necessary to go this deep. In fact often isn't helpful.
People come to a hypnotherapist to gain more control not to lose control. Sometimes trance can be called focused attention.

In trance you are more in touch with your subconscious, This is where all your life experiences are. Good and bad. Hypnosis is a great way to get you in touch with the control room of your mind and body .Its a bit like trying to recall the name of that actor that was in that movie. You cant quite remember. but you know its in there. Beliefs and programmes act in a similar way. Asserting influence over us ,just under our awareness.
Hypnosis can be a great way to access the power within.

5 ways hypnosis can help you to lose weight

How will hypnosis help you to lose weight.

1 Identifying and reprograming habits.
Hypnosis helps you to access your subconscious motivations why you over eat .And replaces them with healthy ways of eating and exercising. Identifying why, where, how you over eat is so important for long-term change.
Using will power is always a part of your weight loss plan. But when your willpower wains the old eating habits kick back in.
The secret is of course is not to  just rely on will power. Creating new  eating  habits. Not using food as a way to deal with life's issues.

2 Setting goals.
Setting goals in trance. Sends instruction to your subconscious mind to find ways to create  healthy eating habits ,and now its time to lose weigh. The power lies within you.The aim is to create new life long habits. Thats way sometime diets don't last. As soon as the willpower  goes, the old programme kicks back in.

3 Selling the benefits
 Focus on all the wonderful benefits of creating healthy eating habits. You will look better. This may increase your self confidence. You will get more energy, feel better over all. Its so worth it, your so worth it.

4 Seeing yourself the weight you want to be.
Can help instruct your deeper mind what to work on. Seeing is believing to your deeper mind. These visual suggestions are remember and played out as you dream. When we sleep at night our subconscious does a lot of work. So when people say sleep on a problem, that really happens. So when you wake in the morning the suggestion to create new healthy eating lifestyle has been set.

5 Getting in touch with your emotional intelligence.
In trance there is more brain connectivity. Your subconscious and conscious mind are more connected. Often people have a conflict/struggle between the two. Your conscious mind knows that eating chocolate everyday is bad for you. But your emotional mind still wants it.
In trance you have more access to your emotional mind, this is where the real powerful work is done.
You can change how you FEEL about food, not just how you think about it. Also powerful suggestions can be directed into your deeper mind to act as an impulse to remind you to, put down that cake. Think how great you will feel.
It takes on average 6-8weeks to create any new habits. After that a new healthier habit is created,
And remember habits are hard to break, especially the good ones.
Of course all change takes time and effort. There can be bumps on the road. But what your mind has created your mind can undo.

Any questions please ring or email for free phone consultation.
Best of luck
