What is stress?
Stress is the reaction of
the autonomic nervous system to a threat or threats, the
instinctive defence
against attack, whether real or imagined. In the event of threatened
physical attack, the system releases adrenaline to assist in either fighting
off the attacker or running away (fight or flight mechanism). Once the
threat subsides, the system returns to normal. If however some unused
adrenaline remains in the system, this is detrimental to the body. There are
many stressors in the modern world but very few are life threatening
situations. This means that people carry their stress without finding
appropriate outlets because the systems original design was intended to take
care of physical threats. Examples of stressors
How can hypnotherapy help with stress? The inability to deal with the stress may be deep seated at some point in the past or may be due to current circumstances. The hypnotherapist will discover which of these is the case and will allow treatment specific to that cause. Hypnosis reduces the effects of stress on the body by deeply relaxing the client, lowering heart rate and blood pressure and relaxing muscle tension. Hypnosis is a relaxed and focused state of mind and most people can be trained to enter this state of deep relaxation in just a few sessions with the help of a trained hypnotherapist. Once trained, most clients can induce a self-hypnotic state at any convenient time(s) during their day to allow themselves to enter a deep state of relaxation |

WHAT CLIENTS SAY...
|
Dear David,
I am absolutely delighted to let you know that although I have had a few ups and downs I really do feel great about me, my life and my family.
I think I should add here that
when I have had 'down' times these have been related either to
(minor) health problems or actual (not imagined) incidents. In
the past these sorts of things would send me into a downward
spiral but since our sessions I have been able to sit back and
assess my reactions, decide what to do and then just get on and
deal with it.
So a big thank you for all the
help you gave me in getting my life back on track.
Regards, Janet R |
