Anxiety is a manifestation of our
instinctual fight or flight responses, bearing in mind that
a small degree of anxiety in every day life is quite natural
and normal. However when feelings of anxiety become
uncomfortable, more intense, more frequent or last longer,
then anxiety and fear interfere with everyday life - often
quite severly.
The 'trigger' for these attacks
can be quite specific (e.g. an event, person, animal, object
etc.) or completely random. There are a wide range of
symptons, ranging from mild anxiety, panic attacks, fears
and phobias - with the effects lasting from seconds to
weeks.
People who suffer from any form
of anxiety experience it differently with combinations of
the following physical and emotional symptoms:
- Shortness of
breath or a feeling of being Smothered
- Heart
Palpitations - Pounding or accelerated heart rate
- Sweating
- Nausea or
abdominal distress
- Dizziness,
unsteadiness or faintness
- Hot and Cold
flushes
- Trembling or
shaking
- Feeling of
choking
- Numbness,
pain or tingling in hands, feet, toes etc...
- Pain or
discomfort in chest, upper back or shoulder blades
The causes of panic attacks and
anxiety are many and varied and hypnotherapy is a powerful
tool for providing coping skills (in the form of relaxation
techniques).
Hypnoanalysis can alleviate
symptons through suggestion work and uncover the original
cause allowing a new understanding and help towards a better
Life.
