Anxiety & Stress are natural and important biological functions. Essentially, they are little alarms designed to let us know that we are either not safe, under threat or that something is out of balance. When anxiety goes off, or even produces a panic attack and there is no real threat around, the alarm is simply malfunctioning. The brain is being tricked into thinking that something in your current environment is the same as a previously threatening experience, and therefore triggers the undesired response. Hypnotherapy brings the body back into balance. We let the mind know that the previous upsetting experience was an isolated one, and unique. We isolate the experience so that the brain stops likening it to other things in your normal, everyday environment. Usually, anxiety and panic attacks are easy to resolve. Bringing down stress is a little more complex, but no more complicated to treat; it just tends to have multiple sources: Lifestyle, unbalanced energy, patterns and behaviors we absorbed when we were young. With hypnotherapy, we examine all of the above: updating our behaviors, creating new patterns and making lifestyle adjustments outside of the sessions. Bringing down stress is a regaining of personal power, but also personal discovery; we begin to learn that the behaviors we often display are learned, and not our true selves. Finding and utilizing our desired behaviors is a truly empowering experience, and it usually comes quite naturally as we are becoming our true selves.
