Relaxation & Stress Management
Suffering from stress ? Stress is the feeling of being under too much emotional pressure. When you are under too much pressure this can turn into stress. Some stress can motivate you and make you higher achieving, but too much stress can cause unwanted symptoms. Stress can be caused by work, relationships and or money problems. It can get in the way of sorting out these problems, and can affect everything you do, including the way you behave, think and even how your body works.
Stress can also impact on the immune system, leaving you run down and vulnerable to illness in the longer term.
Common symptoms of stress may be:
Low self esteem
Sleeping problems
Feeling tense / uptight
Feeling overloaded
Loss of appetite
Anxiety
Feeling irritable
Racing thoughts / things going constantly round in your head
Unable to cope
Difficulty concentrating
Drinking more alcohol
Acting unreasonably
You may also suffer from some physical symptoms such as headaches, sweating, physical tension, pain or dizziness.
Stress is a normal response to feelings of threat or occasional pressure. It is the “fight or flight” response. Usually, once the pressured situation is over the physical response to stress, the hormones in your body return to normal, however if you are under prolonged stress and pressure, these hormones can remain in your body, causing some or even all of the symptoms described above.
I use effective techniques to help you to overcome your stress.
If your stress is out of proportion to your current circumstances then it is important for you to address underlying issues which may but not always be found in painful past experience. These underlying causes need to be worked on as part of a healing process to resolve problems with stress and or anxiety.
As you are a unique individual, I offer different approaches to help you resolve your stressed feelings. Analytical Hypnotherapy will allow you to find and resolve the root causes of your stress, or to find and release the feelings which may be underlying your problem.
I also work with you to help you understand how your beliefs about yourself and your perception of situations/others around you are causing you to feel very strong emotions, affecting you and your well-being as an individual. Then we work together to look more deeply at how we can address your beliefs to change. I gently teach you how to understand better your unique personality, and change unhelpful thinking in order to lead a calmer, more balanced life. Sometimes combined with gentle hypnotherapy or self-hypnosis which is an excellent stress reliever and relaxation coping mechanism.
