Hypnosis for fear of flying

Fear of flying phobia

More and more people come for hypnotherapy to help overcome flying anxiety. Some people are mildly anxious about flying and find that it gets worse over time - others simply develop a full blown phobia for no apparent reason.
In our experience, there are three types of "fear of flying". There is the fear of crashing, the fear of not being in control and the fear which seems to be more a symptom of claustrophobia.
Strangely enough, more often than not, the nervous flyer fits a profile of someone who has flown often in the past and didn't always have the fear. Although, it certainly isn't always the case, we do generally find that the phobia or fear can be traced back to a particular incident but didn't necessarily become chronic at that point. The intensity or panic symptoms developed later
Often fear of flying begins at a time when someone is going through other problems or traumas and almost becomes an extension of that situation.

Overcoming a flying phobia

Practically speaking, what can be done about a fear of flying? Hypnosis can be extremely helpful and often helps to eradicate the fear completely. You need to start with a goal. Would you like to be able to enjoy flying or simply to cope with flying? If not enjoy, then why not?
We recommend hypnosis where you can choose from an extensive range of options.

Flying phobia, inconvenient as it may be, is essentially always positive. That may sound strange but then consider the idea of removing a phobia of flying to such an extent that you become happy to run onto a plane which is clearly not in a suitable condition to fly? This couldn't possibly be healthy.
Hypnotherapists have always seen a healthy benefit to fear, if that fear is logical. Illogical fear or irrational fear is just fear that has become a bit too intense. Hypnotherapy will certainly help you to desensitize the fear. You will always have an internal warning system should you ever need it but confidence in this fact allows you to get on and enjoy your life in the way you deserve.
If you could overcome your fear of flying, where would you go? Imagine you could confidently walk into a travel shop and book tickets anywhere - which destination would you choose?
Imagination can be used to create possibilities or to restrict you from doing something. Perhaps today could be the day you start to use your imagination in a different way.

Scared to Fly?

Turbulence can be uncomfortable, but is a normal part of flying
People are often frightened by turbulence, because they don't understand what is happening. Nervous flyers are scared, as it seems that the plane is falling out of the sky. They focus on the downward bumps as these are the most apparent, but in fact each downward bump is followed by an upward bump. These bumps are actually caused by slight tipples in the air, which is normally perfectly smooth. Think of it in terms of bumps in the road. It doesn't take huge craters or bumps to make for a jerky ride in a car. It's the same with turbulence - small disturbances in the air can make a plane ride feel uncomfortable, but there's no real danger.
The plane is designed, built and tested to rigorous safety levels
Modern airplanes have to be designed and built to comply with rigorous safety standards which are set out by independent aviation authorities. Airplanes and their equipment are manufactured by systems also monitored by aviation authorities. Once built, they are then tested in flight before being given a final seal of approval. They are built to withstand many more stresses and strains than they will ever encounter in flight - the safety margins are enormous. Aircraft are intended to be in the air - it's what they were made for.
Flying is routine
Everyday, just under three million people fly safely all around the world. If you watch planes taking off and landing at your local airport, or look at the arrival and departure boards in the airport, you'll understand just how many flights operate safely each and everyday. Flying really is just routine. It happens all the time with no problems.
The importance of thinking positively
Think positively all the time. If you catch yourself dwelling on negative thoughts, stop and bring yourself back to the positive. Focus on what is happening in the present moment and not what could happen in the future. It can be easy to start imagining a disaster film scenario - make the effort to redirect your wild imagination somewhere more positive. Distract and occupy yourself by reading, doing a puzzle, listening to music or watching a film, or having a conversation.
Tips to cope with feeling nervous
When you are frightened, you breathe more quickly and your heart starts to beat faster. Try this exercise to calm yourself. Push your stomach outward and slowly taking a deep, long breath in through your nose, fill your lungs with air. Hold this breath for a moment, then let it out gradually. Do this once or twice when you are feeling nervous and you will start to feel better. This is a simple but effective technique for calming yourself down. Practice it whenever you feel tense and soon it will become easy and natural.
Fear or panic itself cannot hurt you
The sensation of fear is your body's way of telling you that it perceives a threat to your safety. It is a protection mechanism, preparing us for the "fight or flight" response, and will not do you any harm in itself. Once you understand that the threat poses you no danger, the feeling of fear will vanish. A panic attack will not lead to heart attack or a loss of consciousness.

Hypnosis for sports and fitness


Fort Smith Hypnosis
Athletic Performance And Fitness


Hypnosis has been a useful tool for athletes for many generations.  Whether you're a professional, or wanting to improve your tennis serve for weekend tournaments, hypnosis can be offer many options for improved mind-body performance and coordination. Anything that's a part of your daily ritual affects how you perform in your chosen sport or activity.  By learning about what personally motivates your peak performance, is how working with the unconscious mind can be of most benefit.  This is where meditation can be especially powerful when visualizing a victorious outcome, or improvement in any physical goal. Most successful people in sports or physical fitness will tell you the key element in their suburb performances lies in their ability to visualize the event.  Runners will visualize a better time, martial artists will visualize faster more powerful punches and kicks, skiers will visualize moving through a course with ultimate ease and grace.
Setting A Realistic Goal


The best formula for making improvements in your game or activity, is having a clear insight into "where you are" at the present time physically.  Always keep in mind that a stride toward an objective is most effective when knowing what your full potential is now.  Hypnosis in sports is based on training your ability to consistently engage in a daily structured regiment that will result in a higher level of performance. The short term benefit of hypnosis, is a renewed enthusiasm that results in a visualized outcome, based on improvement for the next event. Of course, the long term benefit of hypnosis along with meditation, is the empowerment of a new daily structured training discipline.

Hypnosis for intuition

Developing Intuition Through Hypnosis
 
 
Intuition is an inner knowingness of things without reason or logic. It is the basis of all psychic information. Intuition is that hunch or that gut feeling that you just know something is going to happen, bad or good, without any particular reason. It's just a feeling that happens to you. It's also being able to tune into another persons energies, thoughts or feelings … and being able detect how they are feeling …

One of the most important elements of developing intuition is awareness.

How can you possibly tune into these invisible frequencies if you are not in touch with the more visible slower frequencies that exist all around you? It's important that you really get to know your body for these kinds of exercises. Your body is a receptacle for receiving information … whether it's through physical sensations, your thoughts, or your emotions or what you see and hear around you … if you are not in touch with what is normal for you, it's going to be difficult for you to recognize when you are receiving signs or being given some kind of information.

So, when I say aware, I mean … really begin to pay attention to what is going on in your body, particularly in the chakra areas … these will be clues for you that something is happening … Pay attention to how you are feeling … notice how you feel when you enter a room or someone's home, or a building … do you get a different feeling about one place or another? Same thing with people … begin to become so curious about people … notice things about them that you would not ordinarily notice … look into their eyes … notice their voice … see if you can detect what their mood is without asking them … and then once you feel like you are getting good at that … validate your experience, by asking them, "are you feeling this particular way right now?"

You may want to choose several close friends that you trust won't feel weird about psychic phenomenon and practice tuning in to their energy in this same way … You can do it face to face, over the phone, or even remotely … but if you do it remotely, you may want to let them know about it ahead of time that you'll be doing some work on them at a certain time on a certain day … and don't let them know the exact time, but at least the day … and then to get the validation ask them if they thought about you at a particular time and see if they picked up your signals …

So, once again, the key here is awareness …

Another thing to become aware of is auras … An Aura is a field of energy … and if you pay close attention, you can see the field of energy around most people and things … So, you can practice this by even looking at your own hands, allowing your eyes to get a little blurry, which is sort of a trance hypnotic state and then you may notice an outline of maybe white or another color around your hands … you can also see this around your animals if you have any, or plants, other people, objects in nature, or even the furniture in your house …

You'll notice that not only can you see this energy, but you can feel it too … If you take your hands for example, and hold them close together about one inch apart, you will feel a warmth emanating from your hands … and if you slowly pull them further and further apart you can see or feel this energy as far as two feet apart … That is because the energy within our body does not stop at our skin, where we can see with the naked eye … this energy surrounds our bodies for quite a ways beyond what we can see … and you can even tune into this energy and begin to see the energy … and while the energy does fade out at a certain point … it really doesn't come to a distinct end … meaning, that our energy is commingling with the energy in the atmosphere and every person with whom we encounter … And so at this level … the atomic level, we are virtually all connected … so, it stands to reason why we really can intuitively feel another persons feelings, and even tune into the thoughts that they have … we influence people with our thoughts and with our feelings …

Becoming more perceptive to all the things that exist in your awareness and then going beyond that is what becoming intuitive is all about …

Of course keeping an open mind is equally important … when you first begin developing intuition, you may wonder, "Am I just making it up?" or chalk up your experiences to your imagination. One of the most important things to understand here is that just because a thing is in the imagination does not mean that it does not exist.

This thing called imagination seems to get a bad rap, especially in your formidable years as a child, in hearing such things as, Oh, it was only your imagination. It's interesting to notice though, how as a child gets older they seem to become ashamed of using their imagination and it eventually it ceases all together. On the other hand, every great discovery that has ever been created was created first in the imagination … And I'll quote Einstein, who said: Imagination is more important than Knowledge.

So, do not discount this powerful resource of information, your imagination is a big key to your success in your psychic work … eventually, you will be able to trust the instincts that come from your imagination … you will be able to validate your experiences … and ultimately your imagination will work for you the way it did when you were a child and you will be more available to these experiences …  Terry Everson  www.fortsmithhypnosis.com

Hypnosis for diabetes

Hypnosis for diabetes
 
 
· Compliance – In many cases, the patient is non-compliant to his doctor’s plan for a healthier lifestyle. With hypnosis and self-hypnosis techniques, we can tap directly into the subconscious mind and reprogram the patient’s thought process to follow the doctor’s orders. The patient begins to eat better, exercise more, lose weight and ultimately get in control of his diabetes.

  • · Less Stress and More Relaxation – Controlling anxiety and stress is important in managing diabetes. Hypnosis is one of the best ways to reduce stress and increase relaxation. In fact, hypnosis is nothing more than a very deep state of relaxation, and relaxation plays an integral role in better health.

  • · Mind Games with The Pancreas – Under hypnosis, the therapist can tap the subconscious and offer suggestions for the body to produce the proper levels of insulin. This might not work for everyone, but the power of the mind has the ability to heal many common ailments and diseases in the human body. Similar strategies have been used to help mothers produce breast milk, or to alleviate pain and allow mothers to have a natural childbirth, for example.

  • · Reduces Depression and Emotional Eating – Studies show that people with diabetes are at an increased risk for depression, which can lead to emotional eating and make it more difficult to manage insulin levels. Hypnosis can increase self-confidence, improve the quality of sleep and improve the belief about a brighter future, thereby reducing depression and emotional eating and helping the patient control his diabetes and overall mental health.

  • · Breaks The Cycle of Bad Habits – Hypnosis can reverse the cycle of habitual negative behaviors that lead to diabetes like overeating, snacking on sweets, being dormant and more. The power of suggestion and visualization can eliminate destructive habits and literally reprogram the subconscious to want to make better and healthier choices.
