Once we stop being overwhelmed with the disadvantages, we can discover that a little bit of stress and tension gets us moving towards the unknown in a way that keeps us aware and focused. And, if you are the person with a consistent level of stress and overwhelm, one of the most effective solutions is to have a hypnosis session.

Helping You Get Started!
Stress is the body’s reaction to environmental change, whether it be internal, external, or both. It can manifest as physical, mental, or emotional symptoms.
Stress can be classified as either chronic, with a longer duration but a slower onset, or acute, with a quicker onset. The most detrimental effects on the body are caused by ongoing stress.
Stress can be positive or negative and is entirely subjective. This means that whatever causes you to be stressed is entirely personal. Something that agitates you might not irritate someone else, and vice versa. It all comes down to expectation and perception! Two things you can help your subconscious mind change during a hypnosis session.
Developing perspective is essential for managing stress. Consider changing your thoughts of I’m Stressed into a question that can help you shift how you view yourself and the word.
- Notice if you made something bigger than it is. On a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being I’m going to die) how serious is this? When you scale something, you recognize most things that stress you won’t actually kill you unless you ruminate on them and give them power).
- Ask What else is possible right here, right now? (It allows your subconscious mind to search through other times when you did something totally different or saw a possibility that you are unaware of).
- Ask How can this turn out better than I imagined? (Again, a positive that your subconscious can search for and when you ask, you shall receive comes into play).
- Wonder What will my life be like in 10 years if I change this thought, feeling or emotion?
- Wonder What will my life be like in 10 years if I don’t change this thought, feeling, or emotion?
The last two questions give you choice. Most of us don’t want to keep experiencing our the pain and suffering. Questions can help you get in touch with what you would like to do instead.
There are emotional situations that must be acknowledged in order to be appropriately managed. You have to say I’m angry, sad, fearful, etc. because if you don’t look at what is happening in the moment, you will be at the effect of it rather than making a change. We can’t change something we have not acknowledged.
Other question to ask yourself, “Who am I being right now?” Most of us learned our behaviors from a parent when we were a child. “What can I do differently?” Your subconscious mind will search for a different response.
A certified hypnotist can help you understand what has happened and how you can do something different. None of us wants to be sad or upset all the time yet most of us don’t have another method or resource to make the change by ourselves. Many learned behaviors can change as you understand how they were set up.
