Mood Disorders

Anxiety is a common human experience that can be useful in many situations, such as helping us overcome difficulties or get out of dangerous situations. Nonetheless, if anxiety starts to disrupt daily activities and cause behaviors like experiencing intense anxiety related to a past traumatic event or avoiding certain situations or tasks that are required to keep your life on track.

Dysfunctional anxiety can cause a range of physical and psychological symptoms, such as persistent worry or fear, restlessness, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, irritability, muscle tension, sleep disturbances, physical symptoms like nausea and diarrhea, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, avoidance of anxiety triggers, and panic attacks.

Overcoming anxiety can include different approaches and many steps, depending on the individual and the severity of their anxiety.

• Uncovering the subconscious cause(s): This involves exploring the traumatic event(s) associated with excess worry that are outside of conscious awareness. Hypnotherapy allows us to identify why we think, feel, or act in certain ways.
• Reframing negative thoughts: Our thoughts, beliefs, emotions, and behaviors are all closely interconnected and can have a powerful impact on each other. Understanding these connections can help us to become more self-aware, regulate our emotions and behaviors, and make positive changes in our lives.
• Resource anchoring: This technique involves identifying positive experiences or memories and anchoring them to a physical sensation or cue. This can help individuals access positive emotions and feelings when they need them.
• Self-hypnosis for relaxation: In self-hypnosis, a person can use various techniques to induce a hypnotic state and then use positive suggestions to achieve a desired outcome, such as relaxation or stress reduction. This can involve techniques such as progressive muscle relaxation, visualization, and guided imagery.

It’s important to be aware that everyone experiences anxiety differently and these symptoms may vary from person to person.

Anger is a normal and healthy emotion that can serve a number of important functions in our lives. Some benefits of anger include:

• Protecting boundaries: Anger can help individuals to establish and maintain boundaries, both physically and emotionally. When someone violates our boundaries, we may experience anger as a response, which can motivate us to take action to protect ourselves.
• Promoting change: Anger can motivate individuals to take action and make changes in their lives. For example, if someone is angry about a particular issue, they may be motivated to become involved in advocacy or activism to bring about change.
• Encouraging assertiveness: Anger can encourage individuals to assert themselves and speak up for their rights and needs. This can help individuals to communicate effectively and establish healthy relationships.
• Improving self-awareness: Experiencing anger can also help individuals to become more self-aware, as it often provides insight into what is important to them and what they value.

Failing in expressing anger when someone violates our boundaries, or not being able to take necessary action(s) to protect ourselves or waiting our needs to be realized rather than communicating can cause unhealthy expression of anger, and it can have negative impacts on both the individual and those around them.

Please BOOK A CONSULTATION CALL  as we can help you in finding and adopting healthy ways to express anger, which can enhance your life and bring PEACE within yourself.

Depression is characterized by persistent feelings of hopelessness, sadness, and a loss of interest in activities that were once enjoyable. However, that does not mean that it is your destiny, and there is nothing you can do about it. Yes, depression is treatable, and it’s possible to feel better again.

Here are some steps hypnotherapy can be used to manage depression:

• Addressing underlying issues: Hypnotherapy can help individuals explore and address underlying issues that may be contributing to their depression, such as past traumas, unresolved conflicts, or unhealthy behaviors.
• Identifying and changing negative thought patterns: Hypnotherapy can be used to help individuals identify and challenge negative thought patterns that may be contributing to their depression. The therapist can help the individual reframe negative thoughts and replace them with more positive, helpful thoughts.
• Building self-esteem and confidence: Hypnotherapy can help individuals develop a more positive self-image, build self-esteem, and develop a greater sense of self-worth. This can be especially helpful for those who have negative self-talk or who struggle with low self-esteem.
