Stress

Stress is a negative emotional experience resulting from a person feeling a mismatch between their environment and their ability to cope with that environment, even a change occurring in a person’s life can cause a fear of that change; these pressures can vary from simple changes in one’s environment, work, family, or social changes, to major life changes like a new job or even bereavement.

If we ignore the problem that is causing us stress, it will eventually affect our bodily organs and our general health and also our wellbeing.

Treating Stress

The first step would be to examine the general cause or causes of the stress reaction, this would establish what type of stress it might be and how best to treat it. When determining the type of stress associated with you there may be anxiety attached to that stress; this would have to be identified before proceeding for various reasons.

There may be some underlying psychological or physical reasons that are causing the stress that is not best treated by hypnotherapy alone, if there are any such issues you’d be referred on to the appropriate help, or if there is some neurological condition consent from your Doctor must be approved before proceeding. If you have been diagnosed or suspect you may have a medical condition, you should consult your GP for advice before starting any alternative therapies or treatments.
