Anxiety and Stress
Benfleet Hypnotherapy; helping deal with stress

Stress
is the feeling of being under too much emotional or mental pressure. It can
affect anyone of any age and from any background, and there are a multitude
of different things that can push our stress levels to the limit; everyday
living is full of burdens, annoyances and tough decisions that have to be
made. You might know what it is that is making you stressed or maybe you
don't; it could be an event from your past or something stressing you
out in your life right now.
Hypnotherapy can be a great tool to
help with
managing stress and could assist you in improving your ability to deal
with things in a calmer, more productive way to ensure you get the very best
out of life.. if that's what you want?
You may think that the very worst stress would be caused by distressing
events, such as a car crash or physical attack. However continual, daily
stresses can be just as destructive; constant small challenges can grind you
down, even if you might not even realise it's a problem.
Some frequent causes of stress include:
- money problems
- job worries
- relationship difficulties
- the death of a family member or loved one
- family problems
- exams and tests

Normally (when it is functioning correctly) the stress response helps
you stay focussed, alert and helps you meet challenges but beyond that it
can stop being a helpful tool and start to have a major affect on your
health, your mood, your efficiency, your relationships, and your quality of
life.
Stress can influence how you feel, think, behave and also how your body
functions.
Sleep problems, increased
sweating, a loss of appetite and problems concentrating are common signs of
stress.
- Do you often tend to be distracted and/or grumpy?
- Is it difficult to focus sometimes because you feel like you can’t cope?
- Do you find it easy to let go of anger or frustration?
- If you feel tense or stressed can you settle down and relax yourself
easily?
- Do you feel you can talk to others when you are stressed to help you to
calm down?
Hypnotherapy could help you take charge
of your thoughts, your emotions and the way you deal with situations. It may
also help ensure that you are taking care of yourself and making time for
therapeutic rest and relaxation.
