Reduce Stress through Self-Hypnosis

Posted by SubmitEdge on Jul 17, 2008

The cumulative affects of stress are astounding and can affect a person mentally, physically and emotionally.  Chronic stress will effect your internal and external environments leading to notable discomforts and often stress related disease. 
The experience of stress often lies in our interpretation of internal and external events.  Symptoms of stress can be seen frequently in physical complaints such as: headaches, muscle tightness, aching or pain, joint problems, neck aches, tightness, difficulty breathing, heart palpitations and stomach discomforts.
While stress usually begins psychologically and emotionally, intervention is most sought when symptoms become physical.
The experience of stress can send a person into a personal survival mode where heightened levels of adrenaline are released into the body.  In this state there are changes in brain function as well as memory and the resourceful functioning of your mind can deteriorate.  Overtime this is very hard on a person physically, leading to the symptoms mentioned above and eventually stress-related diseases such as high blood pressure and heart disease.  This chronic state of arousal continues to rev your fight or flight and freeze survival mechanisms and can in essence weaken them.  This can lead to experiences of anxiety and the onset of a diagnosable anxiety disorder.
So in the presence and experience of stress, what do you do?  How do you stop the process of stress, heal its effects, and prevent stress from affecting you in the future?
One tool that statistically is proven to be very effective is healing a person stress on all levels is hypnosis. 
Because all hypnosis is self-hypnosis each person already has within them the tool to heal and balance our lives, releasing stress and its effects for good.
The average person experiences a hypnosis state about five times spontaneously on your own each day.  These are time when you are reading, involved in a movie or television program, daydreaming, parking your car and not remembering turning into your street, and being intensely focused on a project and not noticing that the time has flown by. 
Learning how to conduct your own self-hypnosis experience allows you to achieve this state intentionally and to work in this state to heal and create balance and change.
Achieving a self-hypnosis state allows a person to bypass their critical mind and effect the desired change within the subconscious.  The subconscious has six vital roles.  It is the home of our memory – both implicit and explicit.  It is the seat of our emotions.  It is the home of our belief system and where all habits and patterns are activated from.  The subconscious controls and regulates all involuntary body functions as well as supplies all motivation and energy for change.
The subconscious mind processes at four billion bits of information per second where the conscious mind can only process two-thousand bits of information per second.  Your subconscious therefore often processes at a rate outside of conscious awareness or understanding. The subconscious can create profound healing, balance and change rapidly and in a very pleasing way.
Self-hypnosis is a simple process to learn and relatively easy to develop.  While there are many circumstances where one may benefit from working with a Hypnotherapist, often an audio stress reduction program that includes comprehensive self-hypnosis training will allow someone to heal and reduce stress successfully while developing the life long tool of self-hypnosis.  Self-hypnosis states naturally introduce the mind to an increase of Alpha, Alpha-Theta and Theta Brainwaves, which naturally increase relaxation, eliminate the experience of stress, and engage the experience of peak performance.  Developing self-hypnosis skills are a valuable life long tool that will help you to create a life you love.  Whether you choose to work with a Hypnotherapist or experience a stress reduction hypnotherapy audio program that includes comprehensive self-hypnosis training you are sure to achieve the results you desire!
