Birmingham Hypnotherapy Clinic in the news

Our clients are often curious about hypno-birthing and what it involves because recently there has been a lot of discussion in the press about celebrities using the technique and even an account of the Duchess of Cambridge undergoing the therapy.
Last year Georgios was lucky to be able to help a journalist from the Birmingham Mail overcome her first time mother fears through some hypnotherapy techniques and a full article about has been published in the paper on April 2nd, 2014.
Essentially Georgios was able to conduct a series of hypnosis sessions with the lady from 31 weeks of pregnancy, concentrating on managing the fears in her head and minimising their impact so that she felt in control of what was happening. After all if the head is not prepared for birth, the body will not be either. In other words if you think about being tense, the birth canal will be tense.
One of the important techniques Georgios was able to teach her was how to put herself in a state of relaxation so that in the delivery room, she would be able to cope with contractions. Because Georgios was not intended to be present at the birth, Georgios also gave the father some instruction in how to help the mother switch on the relaxation at the times she most needed it.
Birth it turns out is still a miracle and although the natural side of things had to be helped along in the end, our client felt calm enough at the time for much better birth experience.

Hypnotherapy Works
People often turn to hypnotherapy when all else has failed and because of this it appears to be very effective.
‘It was the last thing I tried and the first thing that worked.’ Hypnotherapy is about entering a state of relaxation where thoughts are clear and a sense of calmness allows you to see the world, without fear, as it really is. It works because it taps into the mind and enables you to harness its power in a way that benefits you. It doesn’t set out to change the person you are but it aims to change the way you think. |
The power of the mind
The default setting of the human psyche is toward optimism and positivity - you need only observe the average child to see that this is true. However as we grow up we learn to focus on the downside rather than the upside.
Yet the truth is it is just as easy to have a bad thought and reinforce it as it is to favour a good thought and magnify it. With all this mind power we often mistake what is real and what is imagined and when it comes to fears and phobias our brains can really get us in to trouble. This is down to the way we store information in our brains. We take a multi-sensory approach and absorb and retain experiences in terms of pictures, sounds and smells. |
Fear and reality
|
When you have a frightening experience such as a spider crawling down the wall which you suddenly see out the corner of your eye, this sequence is stored in your mind as an image and the more you dwell on it, the bigger the picture becomes until it reaches an impossible size compared the reality of the creature you saw.
Over time the image can morph into a continuous film loop which can be set in motion once you are in a stressful situation and the adrenaline is flooding your body. Despite the fact there is no spider, the imagination has gone into overdrive and state of panic has set in.

Stop and get some perspective
Hypnotherapy works in a similar way to meditation by emptying the cluttered mind and stopping the cycle of worry in its tracks.
Using visualisation techniques it is possible to summon your anxiety, regard it as a physical entity, spin it around and push it out of your body. Then you can gain a perspective on it, reduce its frightening qualities in terms of size and colour - and bring it back inside of you to be neutralised – much like defusing an explosive device.

How hypnotherapy works
Anyone who is new to hypnotherapy may harbour the view that if they let themselves ‘go under’ they will end up perched on a chair clucking like a chicken.
In fact, hypnotherapy can’t make you do anything you don’t want to do. Instead it helps you to understand how your mind works and how to think in a way that enhances your life leaving you in control of your thoughts rather than your thoughts in control of you. Hypnotherapy – worth thinking about. We all have some invisible barriers which have been created in our psyche while growing up. Our mind is the most complicated part of our body, yet we go to see the doctor when our body is unwell but we do nothing when we are emotionally unwell. It is now time to assist our intellect that makes us who we are. After all what is the most important thing in your life? |
Hypnosis is a natural state which when used with hypnotherapy can help you make positive changes in your life. Hypnosis and hypnotherapy has been misunderstood for many years from people who do not understand how it works. Hypnosis is like daydreaming and what happens during hypnosis and hypnotherapy is very normal, certainly non-magical, with generally predictable results. For more information on what is hypnotherapy exactly visit our hypnotherapy page for more information on hypnosis and hypnotherapy.
