Hypnotherapy for Stress

Stress is experienced by most of us multiple times in any given week.

It is our brain’s natural response to challenging circumstances – priming us to be able to respond quickly and effectively with our instinctive fight or flight stress response.  Interestingly, our capacity for stress is very personal.  For one person, an opportunity at work, such as a presentation, might offer them a challenge that excites and motivates them; whereas another person on the same team could find the same task, incredibly stressful and difficult to manage.

Stress can be good (eustress), motivating us to the find the focus we need to knuckle down and meet a high-stakes deadline, for instance; or giving us a sudden burst of adrenaline and alertness needed to dodge an oncoming car. 

At other times though, stress can feel debilitating, leaving us feeling overwhelmed and anxious, and perhaps struggling with tension headaches, asthma, eczema, reflux, weight gain, high blood pressure, or disturbed sleep, for instance. 

In 2018/19, over 600,000 workers in the UK took time off work as a result of work-related stress, anxiety and depression, mainly because of high workloads, tight deadlines, and too much pressure or responsibility.

Stress is usually in response to a specific event, and we feel better once it has passed. There are times though when the stressful events pile up, and chronic stress ensues. We can really suffer. Unfortunately, some of the most significant and potentially happy moments in our lives, can prove to be the most stressful – such as weddings, moving house, getting a new job.  Hypnotherapy for stress can be a powerful tool in difficult situations.

“I feel much more in control and am much happier”

Amy’s basis of treatment is an understanding of what’s happening in the brain in times of stress, which helped me realise how I needed to change my approach to thinking about stress in order to work with my brain rather than against it. By focusing on positive thoughts and unpicking my tendency to catastrophise, I was able to complete a major work project without succumbing to stress-related illness, and by practising Amy’s techniques regularly, I was able to let go of the anxiety I had built up around going to sleep. 

These techniques have now become part of my everyday routine, and they give me a comforting sense of being able to cope with new challenges as they present themselves. I feel much more in control, and am much happier.

"Amy has helped me to step back, and really focus on what’s important."

Amy has helped me to step back, and really focus on what’s important. Helping me to clarify my goals, and focus on those things, positively and with impact. The time I’ve spent with Amy has kept me focussed, encouraged me to keep going when some weeks I really didn’t want to, and to achieve more clarity and results then I expected; going where I want to, quicker, while at the same time realise how far I’ve come and how much I’ve achieved.
