Hypnosis For Anxiety


Currently, hypnosis is not just seen as a party trick anymore; it now has several use cases in the modern world. It has now become an alternative treatment for a number of anxiety and stress-related issues.


Most people have referred to hypnosis or hypnotherapy as a form of alternative medicine or treatment that makes use of intense concentration, guided relaxation accompanied by heightened focus to achieve a state of awareness that is often seen as a trance. During hypnotherapy, the focus or attention of the subject is heightened, and everything going around him is completely ignored or blocked.


One question most people have asked is if hypnosis can be used to treat patients suffering from anxiety. The clear answer to that question is yes, hypnosis has proven to be a useful tool for managing anxiety at an optimal level. How?

Studies have revealed that in most cases, anxiety is learned subconsciously. Over time, we tend to condition our mind and body to react or feel in a type of manner when faced with stressful situations. When these situations arise, those with anxiety issues tend to experience a wide range of symptoms ranging from difficulty breathing to racing thoughts. With the help of hypnotherapy, those suffering from anxiety can reframe and release automatic responses in the process, replacing them with more beneficial ways to think, thus, reducing stress and anxiety instantaneously. With the help of regular hypnotherapy sessions, those suffering from anxiety can gain complete control of their response to triggers in the process empowering the mind to be better.


As of date, more professionals are beginning to see the benefits of hypnosis to the treating and managing of anxiety. Based on the reports and studies conducted, the British Psychological Society now considers hypnosis as the most viable therapeutic option for the efficient management of anxiety.

What Causes Anxiety And How Hypnosis for Anxiety Can Help


With the number of anxiety patients increasing globally, there’s every need to embrace hypnosis as the ideal solution to this growing issue.
Several psychologists claim that anxiety is a learned behaviour. The human mind has been designed with a natural defence system that most of the times manifest as fear or panic. With constant practice, the human mind begins to amplify these defence systems to the extent that they become irrational. Instead of the brain to act rationally, it begins to act irrationally when we are faced with a particular situation. For example, most people tend to be anxious when called to speak in public, and this could be because they have had an awful experience which left them embarrassed. The subconscious mind tends to store it down and will induce fear, panic, and anxiety into them when next they are called to speak to a large crowd. As this situation continues to occur repeatedly, the subconscious mind becomes ingrained to these thoughts to the extent that it becomes debilitating.
