Stress and Anxiety
From the most primitive times, humans have possessed an escape mechanism that today under stressful conditions releases adrenal chemicals that activate the “Fight or Flight” response within the body. Over time, this response conditions our mind to react to stressors in a hyper-alert fashion, producing additional adrenal stress chemicals and taxing the mind’s ability to cope and react in a calm, peaceful manner. Research has shown that the body’s immune system is also compromised by this stressful response. Prolonged daily stress can damage many areas of our body, such as coronary artery disease, which can lead to a stroke. Gastric problems, ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome, migraine headaches, high blood pressure, insomnia, decreased sexual drive and high coritsol levels are all symptoms of high stress levels. Studies have shown a direct correlation between stress and depression, lack of motivation and even mental clarity.
According to Dr. Melissa C. Stoppler, “In addition to decreased feelings of pain, secretion of endorphins leads to feelings of euphoric, modulation of appetite, release of sex hormones, and enhancement of the immune response. With high endorphin levels, we feel less pain and fewer negative effects of stress".
One of the natural benefits of the hypnosis process is a reduction of stress and anxiety levels due to the endorphin and serotonin release that accompanies each hypnosis session. The endorphin response offers the ability to neutralize adrenal chemicals and restore the body and mind to a natural balance. Along with experiencing the relaxing effects of the hypnosis process, you will learn new coping skills to manage everyday stressors, enhancing your communication and relationships in many areas of your life.
