Hypnotherapy for Anxiety
Is your anxiety stopping you from doing the things you love most in life?
Did you know feelings are of anxiety are normal and essential for our survival? Anxiety about being hit by a bus will ensure we look twice when crossing the road to avoid any potential danger.
In the early days of humanity when we felt predators approaching or any other potential danger it would trigger alarms to go off in our body, e.g increased heart rate, sweating and heavy breathing.
The danger itself causes an increase in the adrenaline hormone, which then sends a message to the brain and causes the reaction of flight, fight, or freeze response.
Although we are less likely in today’s time to experience the same types of encounters such as running from predators, our modern-day anxieties still mirror the fight, flight or freeze response which can come from work, money, family/relationship issues, health and other crucial life events.
When Anxiety starts causing a problem in your everyday life, this is when its time to seek help to either drastically reduce the symptoms or remove them altogether.
