Expectations are a common source of stress in our lives, they frequently create all sorts of mischief, including emotional distress, relationship conflicts, communication breakdowns, misunderstandings, distrust and a wide range of other common problems. Irritability and Anger can often be the result of an accumulation of those stresses, and your own tolerance or frustration which occurs during those stressful events, are based on what you have learned during childhood, so that the more rigid the beliefs you hold, the more likely your anger will increase.
Expectations produce stress in 2 main ways. One is that they are frequently untrue or unrealistic. The other is that most of the time, we are completely unaware of them. Learning how to deal with any types of stress effectively, will help you to understand how to approach the problem in the right way. By understanding and challenging your behaviours or deep-seated beliefs, you can learn to communicate your feelings in a more assertive manner.

By combining techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Hypnotherapy, it has been proved that the effect and speed of change is greater. The Cognitive Hypnotherapy approach, starts by looking at your own personal perceptions and thought processes as they relate to your present emotions. It
helps to break down the confusion and adds logic to the thinking process, therefore breaking the cycle of those debilitating stress or anger symptoms. Then when can look at identifying all your unwanted emotions and accompanying thoughts, so we can look for ways in which any of those distorted or unhelpful thoughts relate to those emotions, thus allowing you to discover new alternative ways of thinking, which are more positive and solution-focused and enable you to set clear and realistic goals, which you feel comfortable with, and inspired by.
By re-programming your mind in a more relaxed manner during Cognitive Hypnotherapy, helps you to focus on the positives; to celebrate your accomplishments and to improve lines of communication. Learning the relaxation techniques in hypnotherapy, can reduce the need for that continuous flow of confused, over-reactivity you produce when you are stressed, and brings back control into your life, safely and calmy.
In order for Hypnotherapy to work effectively, each Stress Management programme must be tailored to fit each person’s specific needs. These needs are met by determining the main stress stimuli and recognising any accompanying responses to these.
The cognitive therapy process will take you through a structured path in which you are able to take a closer and more detailed look at the exact stimuli that contributes to your stress and the physical and emotional responses to each stimulus, so that you can develop new positive responses which enable you to see yourself not as a victim, but as a person with renewed power and determination. This in turn will allow you to become a calmer, more effective and healthier person with good positive strategies to work with, in allowing you to be in total control of your emotions, thoughts , feelings or actions, instead of them being in control of you.
These sessions will teach you new Powerful and Effective skills, in allowing you to experience a Calm Stillness of the Mind, a Renewed Energy AND help you to strengthen your CONFIDENCE.
True Relaxation involves the natural quieting down and calming of your mind, to a point at which a feeling of deep peace and comfort permeates every part of your body. Don't just take my word for it.....Give it a try NOW! I can guarantee you won't be disappointed.

You Don't Need to Be a Slave to Stress or Anger Anymore. Discover what is right for you through Cognitive Hypnotherapy, and be Inspired.
The most significant part of managing stress is learning to cope right at the moment stress buttons are activated; because no matter what we do to try to prevent stress, there is often someone who always manages to push our buttons whatever situation occurs. The only way to control this, is by a learning process that leads to a positive change in the way you react. This is where Hypnotherapycomes in…..
Stress is not a cause, but a result of a perception by an individual, that a situation is uncontrollable, and that nothing can be done about it.
If you wish to overcome something stressful that is inhibiting your success in some way, or to control your anger and regain control of your emotions, Hypnotherapy needs two very important goals in place, you have to have the desire within yourself to do or accomplish what it is you wish and also to believe that it can be done.
The road to success in any hypnotherapeutic treatment, means keeping paramount in the YOUR mind, the ultimate goal to be achieved. When in the past you have previously accepted the idea that a problem is unsolvable, or that a chain of events tip the balance and become a trigger of your anger, then stress, aggression, failure and physical deterioration can soon follow, so this debilitating symptom of Stress, must be reversed by re-education, so you are then easily able to accept the challenge of each and every problem or frustration, and to search for a solution by using simple logic and reason, anticipating the feeling of success.
Worry solves no problems. Positive and corrective suggestions re-inforced through the use of hypnosis, leads the way to restoring your confidence and self-image. How you perceive a situation causes your body to respond in a certain manner, when you change how you think, then you change what you do and how you feel, once you recognise how to control these unwanted reactions, you can then use self-hypnosis to tap into your reservoirs of unlimited potential, and keep those moments of stress and over-reaction at bay.
Working with Your own Body's Natural Healing System
By learning relaxation techniques, meditation and breathing exercises, you can begin to understand the workings of your body. A peaceful mind creates a relaxed, healthy body and contributes to a more harmonious internal environment, in which your healing system can work smoothly and efficiently. When working with your own natural healing system, a combined mind-body approach, is the best strategy for reversing and overcoming any stress related symptoms like anxiety, fear, anger, or even jealousy or pain.
By learning new breathing techniques, you can increase your energy and gain tremendous control over any pain or stress related symptom you are suffering from. Breathing is one of the most powerful modalities known to help diminish pain or suffering and strengthen your healing system. By positively aligning your mental attitude and personal health habits with your healing system, you are much more likely to enjoy greater health.
Remember you are not a machine but a complete human being with a body, mind and spirit, and these are all interconnected with each other.
If you succumb to the belief that the illness or stress related symptom is more powerful, it is a waste of precious energy that could be used for healing. The powerful healing partnership of the mind and body can maximise the flow of your healing energies, mobilize the forces of healing that exist within you, and produce a more rapid, effective and thorough healing response, to help you reach a more healthier and emotionally-balanced life.
