Overcome Anticipatory Anxiety

Calm down your worries about future events with Hypnotherapy And Counselling

Is most of your worrying just anticipatory anxiety about the future, rather than concerns about what's actually going on now?

Do you get eaten up with dread about upcoming events and how they will turn out?

Your ability to imagine a goal in life, and to work out detailed plans to deal with obstacles, is a truly valuable resource. Deciding what you'll do if things go wrong is key to effective planning. It would be downright silly to assume everything will always go smoothly. Flights will be delayed, rain will fall on garden parties, people will forget what they were going to say, tomato sauce will get spilled over you...It happens to everyone.

Too much thinking leads to anticipatory anxiety

The trouble is, when you spend too much time thinking too closely about everything that could go wrong, the famous mind-body connection goes into overdrive. Your worrying thoughts can trigger the actual physical emotions that would accompany those unfortunate events. Your heart rate rises, adrenaline floods into your bloodstream, and your body gets ready to face what it believes is a real and present danger.

When really it's all in your imagination.

Now obviously, it doesn't make sense to say you should just stop preparing for future events, and planning for negative eventualities, altogether. That would be likely to bring you some perfectly real (as opposed to imaginary!) difficulties.

What's needed is a way to think about eventualities (good or bad) calmly. A way to calm down any emotional response that gets triggered, so you can stay detached, make sensible plans, and then get on with your life.

And hypnotherapy is a brilliant way for you to do just that.

Hypnotherapy can help you calm down unnecessary fears

and will train your unconscious mind to instinctively calm down anxious thoughts about the future.

As you relax and listen , you'll notice that you

💖find yourself becoming much more relaxed about life in general

💖learn how to take command of your emotional responses

💖become more and more skilled at calming and quieting troubling thoughts

💖are no longer at the mercy of unpleasant emotions

💖can think much more clearly and effectively about helpful ways to prepare for upcoming events

💖enjoy life so much more.

💖face the future with calm.

Most People Refuse to Acknowledge Their Anxieties

Most People Refuse to Acknowledge Their Anxieties

Hey, let's face it, we all like to put up a face around people we care about or respect. At the very least, we have some sort of public face that we try to maintain.

What is this public face? Well, we want people to think that we're strong. We want to give people the impression that we have our acts together. We don't want them to see our weaknesses.

We really are often embarrassed by a public display of shortcomings or other features that we think will make us look bad. This is why we put up with appearances.

We know, deep down inside that, most of the time, we can't trust appearances. People who seem to have the perfect families, the perfect careers, or the perfect lives are actually going through a tough time. But, since we maintain this public face, most people are simply left with the surface impression that everything is going well.

Here's the thing. You can get so caught up in the public appearance that you're putting up that you end up playing seriously damaging games with yourself. One of the worst things that you can do is to be in denial about your anxieties.

Now, let's get one thing clear. Everybody's got anxieties. We all have fears about the past. We have regrets, guilt and other negative emotions about things that have happened in the past.

We also have issues about the future. Sure, these things have not yet happened, but despite that fact, we can't help but worry about them.

We would like to gain some measure of control over our lives. And sadly, too many of us try to do this by simply trying to worry ourselves into some semblance of control.

Well, just as we can't control what happened in the past, we can't control the things that have yet to happen. And that's why, unfortunately, a lot of people struggle with anxiety. It can easily get out of hand.

While it's almost normal to assume that a certain level of worry is fine, it's very easy to overstep our bounds. It's really hard to find that thin line between "healthy worries" and obsessive anxieties that wear us down and pollute our relationships.

Given this background, it is no surprise that a lot of people refuse to acknowledge their anxieties. As far as the world is concerned, they're living perfect lives or something close to it. That's the public appearance they want to give.

And before you know it, they start believing their own press. They start believing the image that they portray to the rest of the world and that's why they are terribly surprised when they figure out that they have these anxieties that are eating them from within. Are you one of these people?

Well, the good news is that there is a solution to anxiety that doesn't involve brain altering chemicals. There is an all-natural solution that doesn't involve expensive psychotherapy counselling. I am, of course, talking about changing your belief system.

The best part to all of this is that you yourself trigger the changes. By simply working with how you currently process reality, you can get out from under the crushing weight of anxiety.

Overcome Fear and Anxiety

anxiety.png

Hypnotherapy can stop worry and apprehension wrecking your life

Do you often feel fearful and anxious even when you know there's nothing to worry about?

Are your thoughts and emotions controlling you, rather than the other way round?

Feeling worried and frightened is extremely unpleasant

Your heart pounds. Your chest feels too tight. Your guts seem to be tied in knots. You break out in a sweat.

You desperately want to run away - but where to? You might feel sick. You can't think straight. You're sure something awful is going to happen.

What is fear for?

This wouldn't be so bad if you really were about to be run over by a bus or eaten by a rampaging lion. Because then you wouldn't be thinking at all.

You'd be jumping aside, or swarming up a tree as fast as you could go. And you'd be so happy to come out alive that you'd hardly notice the sweat, or the knots. This, after all, is what fear is for. It's to galvanize you into instant, immediate, instinctive, life saving action.

If you are really in danger, fear and anxiety are completely appropriate - and useful! - responses.

Why you can feel afraid when you're perfectly safe

But the chances are that you are having these feelings and thoughts somewhere perfectly safe and secure. You are not about to die. You are not about to be attacked. You are likely surrounded by ordinary folk going about their ordinary lives, just like you.

Sure, some of them may be awkward characters, or may even actively dislike you, but dealing with difficult people is an ordinary part of ordinary life.

So how come you always feel so excessively worried and fearful about stuff?

When fear becomes a habit, growing out of control

Well, you may be surprised to learn this, but, like all human responses, feeling afraid and uneasy can become a habit. There may have been times in the past when you've had genuine reasons to feel frightened about what might happen to you, but somehow this feeling has become generalised to lots of situations where it doesn't belong.

And because fear feeds on itself, growing ever bigger by focusing on how bad things could get, it can end up taking over your life, imprisoning you in an iron cage of worry.

Hypnotherapy can break the fear habit for good

Feel like a great weight has lifted from your shoulders

  • Find you are noticeably more relaxed about life in general

  • Are surprisingly quick to learn - and use - the vital emotional control technique at the heart of this session

  • Start using emotional control in more and more different situations

  • Feel much more in command of yourself

  • Enjoy life so much more!

How Can Hypnotherapy Help with Generalised Anxiety Disorder.

anxiety.jpg

Why not try Hypnotherapy for anxiety and you can feel calm today

Are you often overwhelmed by worry and anxiety, even when there is no major cause for concern in your life?

Do you wonder where all those nebulous stomach churning fears spring from and how you can stop them?

Constant worry is debilitating and exhausting

Whether you are fretting about real and pressing problems that you have to solve or whether your mind is full of fears and fantasies about what might go wrong, the effect is the same.

You can't think straight, you feel tense and stressed, your digestion plays up, you can't sleep, you feel sick and there seems no way out. It's a nightmare.

The constant state of 'red alert'

People often compare the state of generalised anxiety to being on constant 'red alert'. It feels as if there is an immediate 'threat' out there.

You are constantly on the look out, even though you don't know what you are looking for, or what you will do if you find it. The comparison is a good one.

It's as if your 'danger sensor' has been set to trip at too low a point. Everything starts to feel threatening.

The vicious spiral of worry

And of course the human danger sensor is not a piece of digital equipment that you can just reset with the flick of a switch. It has an internal feedback mechanism that's regulated by your emotions.

So the more you worry... the more you worry. It's a vicious spiral, but not irreversible.

Because the good news is that this feedback loop works both ways. The less you worry... the less you worry, and the spiral becomes your friend. Hypnotherapy can imprint that positive feedback at an unconscious level and prevent excessive worrying from returning.

How Hypnotherapy for Anxiety will make you;

  • feel more relaxed than you have felt in a long time or ever

  • experience a growing sense of calm in your mind and body

  • begin to develop a new perspective in your mind

  • find it easier to deal with what needs to be dealt with

  • become more able to set concerns aside and enjoy life

  • learn how to prevent excessive worry from returning.
