Anxiety and stress are the body’s natural responses to danger, but in some cases, they can be excessive and debilitating.
If you have difficulty controlling stress and anxiety levels then this can impact your career, relationships and lifestyle, but you can learn to manage stress and anxiety to enjoy a better life. Here we explore how you can relieve stress and live a more relaxed and balanced life.
Understanding Stress
Stress occurs from the anticipation of danger or discomfort. Unlike fear, it is not a useful response for the body.
When fear sets in, as a car hurtles towards you, for example, the body increases adrenaline levels and gets you out of the way. Stress increases the adrenaline levels in the same way without the same response being required. This leads to the build-up of an overwhelming pressure that can become unbearable and debilitating. If you can learn to relax and relieve this stress, however, then you will have an increased capacity to deal with the situations you face.
Using Hypnosis to Relieve Anxiety
Anxiety hypnosis is a quick and effective way to help you overcome this build up of stress so that you can become relaxed in situations that used to challenge you. Anxiety and stress are unconscious responses so you need to solve this pressure at the same unconscious or subconscious level. Hypnosis for the relief of stress can help you in a range of different ways:
Relieving Physical Tension
Hypnosis can firstly help to relieve physical pain and tension that is caused by the emotional strain that stress places you under. By targeting the ingrained biases and beliefs that are governing your stress, the hypnotherapist is able to take away these triggers and see a resulting relaxation of the physical manifestations of stress.
Preventing sweating, shaking and stammering can then, in turn, help you to become more confident in these situations.
Relieving Emotional Strain
Chronic stress can leave you in a constant state of worry that can make you depressed and reduce your capacity to deal with situations. A hypnotherapist can help to remove this stress by addressing the beliefs that they stem from.
Using hypnotherapy, they can plant positive reactions to situations that have previously worried you. In doing so they can completely remove these strains and allow you to reach your full potential.
Allowing you to Sleep
Stress often keeps people awake at night and this, in turn, adds to the stress because it makes it harder to deal with the challenges that are faced in the day. By relieving the stress at the route and at the subconscious level, therapists can help you to get a good night’s rest. As you learn to look inwardly and relax you will become more controlled in your life and will gradually relax.
Ending Panic Attacks
Panic attacks are the most severe examples of anxiety and stress, but these too can be fixed with hypnotherapy. Panic attacks are often treated using exposure but this is not required in hypnotherapy. By accessing the subconscious and reprogramming the triggers for panic attacks it is possible to end your suffering from panic attacks outright.
Anxiety hypnotherapy is a simple and effective process for overcoming your fears and relaxing in situations you find uncomfortable. By regaining confidence at a subconscious level you’ll be able to achieve things you never thought possible while enjoying a more relaxed and stress-free life.
