Hypnotherapy and Stress.
There is no doubt that hypnosis is a very effective treatment of stress. When an individual feels he does not have the resources to cope with a task he is confronted with stress develops. Hypnosis changes perception, belief and capability so the subject no longer feels he is no longer incapable.
90% of diseases are caused by stress, said Dr. Lipton. Vital organs are straved of nutrients and oxygen by persistent stress. This is fine on occasions but diseases are likely when it becomes persistent.
It is not the situation you confront that causes stress but by the way you perceive this situation and whether you feel you have the power in you to deal with it. Hypnotherapy works remarkably well in stress because it alters your belief, perception and expectation.
Following hypnotic treatment, things that trigger extreme stress are converted to easy tasks because, you have the belief that you have the resources to handle what you are faced with little effort on your part.
Hypnosis takes you down to a deep relaxed state and to brainwave level theta. At theta brainwave level, the barriers that block unwanted information from reaching the Subconscious Mind,ease their tight grip and the hypnotist is then able to embed positive changes in attitude, belief and expectation.
Hypnosis is without doubt a powerful and safe treatment of stress and anxiety. Another recommended stress treatment is meditation. Meditation, however, is difficult in a stressed person because it is not easy to relax and carry out the disciplines. Best practice is to use hypnosis in the first instance and use meditation for the long term and overall life enhancement.
Lets face it. Stress is an unpleasant thing. It takes your libido away. It steals enjoyment out of your life. You can develop anger, rage, anxiety and depression. During stress you become less creative and makes unnecessary mistakes.
The most serious problem with stress, however, is that it stimulates the heart and shuts off vital nutrients to important organs of the body by triggering the fight or flight reaction. This is why research has shown it is responsible for 90% of all diseases. In industry there are millions of days a year lost through stress and the cost to healthy services is enormous.
Hypnosis can change your attitude to stress and provides not just short term stress control but coping skills for the long term.
In a hypnotic session, the hypnotist will give you very powerful and effective post hypnotic suggestions not just on how to cope with your current situation but generally on all aspects of your life. He is likely to say, “You are calm and relaxed. You will have no fear when confronting any situation and know that if it can be done, you are very capable and competent to do it.” Effective post hypnotic suggestion will help you to adopt the attitude, “What is fast and best way of doing this?” rather than, “I don’t think I can do this.”
So have hypnotherapy rather than drugs, counselling, CBT or psychotherapy for safe and outstanding results of all your stress problems. Bear in mind that hypnosis is simply a state of heightened awareness where your right brain becomes very alert. It does not analyse or filters like the left brain. The Subconscious Mind simply accepts positive suggestions by the hypnotist while you remain in a calm relaxed altered sleep.
