Hypnotherapy for Stress

At North Shore & City Hypnotherapy Sydney, hypnotherapy for stress management is a huge part of what we do, whether it is requested or not by our clients!

Ultimately juggling our busy lifestyles also means acquiring skills in how to manage stress levels.

Stress in the true sense is how the body responds to demands and pressure, both positive and negative.

You’ve heard about the fight or flight response, where blood pumps to the arms and legs to fight or flee a situation, and when there is neither option, we freeze in response to a real or perceived threat.

The mind and body don’t know the difference between the two, which is why our Optimal Evolution™ Hypnotherapy System is so effective – we resolve both real and imagined or perceived threats at the subconscious mind level.

What is Stress?

Our clients often come in perplexed by why they are feeling the way they are, fatigued, suffering insomnia, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), autoimmune or other medical issues, teeth grinding, with pain….. the list is endless!!

We struggle to cope with those stressors and demands and can be family or relationship related, work or job related, financial, medical, environmental or even social.

We all respond differently, and cope in our own individual ways.

How we deal with stress can be a function of our early experiences, secure, loving, happy, positive family unit versus changeable, insecure household with divorce, death and/or other losses.

Other words that people use to describe ‘stress’ are anxiety, panic, worry, anger, rage, overwhelm and on occasion nervous energy or even nervous breakdown.

Types of Stress

There are three types:

This is usually situational, short-lived brief or momentary.

Think negative thought patterns bringing on this emotional reaction.

Signs and physical symptoms include perspiration, sweaty palms, irritability, irritable bowel or gut reactions, dizziness, high blood pressure, tension headaches, clenching fists and jaw and other transient symptoms.

Those who live a chaotic lifestyle going from one real or imagined crisis or drama to the next are more likely to suffer this kind of stress, where each episode is short lived but a regular occurrence.

Often people who are disorganised and/or with people pleasing and/or perfectionistic tendencies can relate to this type of stress. 

In addition, saying yes to too many work, family or social engagements are common.

Like a comedy and tragedy Greek theatre mask: Think Type A Personality, action-oriented, somewhat competitive, sometimes hostile and defensive; and the Worry Wart Personality, more anxious and prone to depression, always thinking the worst, pessimistic and frozen with an inability to act.

Signs and physical symptoms include impatience, short temper, compromised attention, retention and learning, muscular pain and tension, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), diarrhoea, constipation or other gastrointestinal issues, cold feet and hands, high blood pressure, shortness of breath, heart problems, lowering of the immune system.

If any of these apply to you, you are in dire need of intervention via our proprietary Optimal Evolution Hypnotherapy System™ without a doubt!

It is also wise to seek medical advice.

This is the most harmful and damaging to mental health, well-being and survival.

Signs and symptoms are the same as above, but longer term.

It can be the result of trauma or PTSD, long term unemployment, poverty, ongoing abusive situations where a person feels trapped and unable to harness internal or external resources, and where they basically feel helpless and hopeless and accepting that there is no way out (even when there often is – hint: our proprietary Optimal Evolution Hypnotherapy System™).

Depressed and entrenched in their acceptance of it, can lead to disastrous outcomes.

Often clients acclimatise to chronic stress until a light-bulb moment, epiphany or final straw (or worse) and then they make the call to seek help!

Is hypnotherapy effective ?

YES! Hypnotherapy is the best, fastest, most effective way of relieving and releasing stress from the past and a way to cope and manage future stress levels hands down!

Our history and experiences are all stored in our subconscious mind, and using hypnosis we can access those memories and responses and make the changes required in our Hypnotherapy Sessions.

No negative side effects, just positive outcomes!

Not only can we resolve accumulated stress, we can also refocus the mind on positive coping mechanisms and strategies for life, such as motivation for and implementation of exercise, eating well, reaching out to friends and looking after ourselves as a way of preventing spiralling down old unhelpful pathways.

So how do we resolve your issue?

Easily and effectively!

Through hypnotherapeutic counselling, we take a comprehensive history and identify key areas that need to be resolved in hypnosis for you to be stress-free.

These encompass old beliefs that no longer serve you, as well as thought patterns, feelings, self-talk, and addressing the ‘payoffs’ and triggers.

We take you into hypnosis and use various therapies and techniques to:

  • Unlock and resolve all the components;
  • Build and reinforce coping strategies, self-esteem, positivity, and optimism; and
  • Seal the deal with zen-like calm.

ASK YOURSELF:

  • What are your stress levels costing you?
  • Do they interfere with living life on a daily basis?
  • Do you have trouble switching off?
  • Does that effect your quality/quantity of sleep?
  • Do your relationships suffer?
  • Have you lost your fun spark or do you have trouble with excess (binge drinking for example)?
  • Do you neglect yourself, family and/or friends because of it?
  • What is the cost and impact on your:
    – Health?
    – Physical appearance?
    – Sense of self-worth?
    – Wellbeing?
    – Ability to perform at work/home?
    – Relationships?

Does the benefit of investing in a handful of Sessions with us to be stress-free outweigh the ongoing costs of feeling trapped and stuck in a slippery rut??
