Hypnotherapy and Stress Management
Stress can be defined in two ways. It is either the positive type stress or the negative type stress. Positive type stress is also called the essential stress because even when we are stressed, this lead us to put on more energies and tensions and allow us to be successful with our goals, experience vitality, feel the completeness and a have good sense of well being. On the other hand, negative type stress is the undesirable stress and opposite from the positive stress. It can drain you energy and give you undesirable tensions. If this type of stress can be experienced for a longer period of time, it can end up in physical and psychological illness and worst, can be debilitating and may lead to death.
Stress as we very well know is a mental condition that affects the very well being of a person. It has a deep origin and the cause of stress can stay in the subconscious mind of the person although the conscious mind is most affected. This is why hypnotherapy can be of help in helping the afflicted get over himself and at least to the point that he can manage alone. Stress is now considered as one of the leading causes of mental illnesses probably due to the complicated conditions brought about by the ailing society. Long time repression of anger, fear, hatred, resentment, and enduring anxiety can manifest themselves into heart attacks, cancer, strokes, and other major types of diseases and these diseases can be traced back to high levels of the negative type stress.
Negative type stress is considered a mismanaged stress. It can produce a downward spiral which leads to more degradation of thinking. On the other hand, positive stress can make the person more successful because it will produce an upward positive spiral which leads to more attainment and success. Stressful people with negative type stress always think that the world is a very dangerous place to live and everyone is not happy. Unfortunately, this will become his fulfilling prediction and as he think it is, his actions will coordinate according to his thinking.
Hypnotherapy has an extensive documented history in the successful management of people suffering from illnesses brought about by the negative type stress. Unlike other treatment where drugs are induced to help patient sleep or calm their nerves, there is no drugs or chemicals involved here. What is good about this treatment is that the mind and the body can both benefit from the hypnotherapeutic intervention.
Hypnosis which is the basic tool of hypnotherapy is a natural altered state of consciousness that if directed properly will produce positive changes not only psychological but also physiological. The end result is the personal empowerment and the ability of the person to control his emotions. This translates to the general well-being and health of the person. The hypnotherapist can also teach the person self hypnosis so that he will be armed with his own tool until he can make things positive for himself.
