Stress, Anxiety and Panic attacks
Successful treatment for stress, anxiety and panic attacks in Bournemouth, Poole and Dorset using hypnosis and hypnotherapy.
Understanding stress and anxiety
Most of us experience some degree of stressful and anxious moments in our lives. When these levels become too high it can affect our quality of life, and ultimately the way we perform. How you feel is your perception to what is going on around you. What may be intolerable for one person may be acceptable to another. It is important to recognise our own response towards a stressful situation and if required develop some new skills to deal with it.
Business managers are now sitting up and taking notice of the fact that stress related illnesses are one the biggest causes of lost work days in this country. Work-related illness costs somewhere in the region of £3.8 billion each year and it is no wonder that most businesses are now looking to incorporate some kind of stress management into their work place.
Panic attacks
At some time in our lives we have all experienced some form of panic; perhaps the time we have misplaced our keys or wallets. Panic attacks are a severe form of anxiety that strike quite often out of the blue. These can be quite frightening with symptoms of feeling out of breath, feeling dizzy or faint, or short of breath.
Other symptoms can be:
- Palpitations or a thumping of your heart
- Chest pains
- Feeling sick
- Hot flushes
- Feeling short of breath
- Numbness, or pins and needles
Then after a short period of time you start to calm down and wonder will it happen again? You will then try to stay clear of what caused the panic attack in the first place. All panic attacks are caused by some cause or other and by finding the cause using hypnoanalysis then the symptoms cease to be.
How can you tell if you are under too much stress?
There are many different forms it can manifest itself in; the following are some of the physical symptoms that may be stress-related:
- Racing pulse
- Headache
- Chest and back pain
- High Blood Pressure
- Sweating
- Sleeplessness
- Nervous twitch
- Breathlessness
- Restlessness
- Tiredness
- nail biting
You may find yourself depressed and feeling anxious, and taking little interest in life and what's going on, fearing you will fail and dreading the future. Perhaps you may find that you are aggressive and irritable and have lost your sense of humour.
Damage to your health
The more stressed we get the more susceptible we are to its effects, thus someone who is continually suffering with high levels of stress can put their health at risk.
What can we do about dealing with stress and anxiety?
Hypnotherapy is an excellent tool to use to help deal with stress. Using positive suggestions and visualisation skills can allow you to reduce your stress levels. Hypnosis and self-hypnosis are forms of natural healing of your state of mind. Anxiety and worrying come from the subconscious of our minds, so by helping you to reframe these thoughts and emotions with the aid of hypnotherapy, you can take positive control of the situation and reduce the stress you have been experiencing.
