Soothe Your Shyness – 7 Tips
Posted by: | Comments
Shy people instinctively know they are missing out. Shyness equals lost opportunities, less pleasure, and fewer social connections. Shyness can be crippling…but there are tried and tested ways to make it a thing of the past.
The formula for shyness is “too much focus on the self” plus anxiety. To make it even more unpleasant, sometimes when you are feeling shy, you experience physical sensations which “hijack” your calm, logical self. Read More→

We all know how to deal with stress, right? Get rid of what’s stressing you. And if we can’t get rid of it, at least reduce the number or severity of the assorted stressors in our lives. But how do we do that?
That’s where we get stuck. Sure, we all would like to be less stressed, but where do we start? How do we reduce the number of stressors in our lives? After all, it usually feels like everything on our plate is non-negotiable.
But that’s the thing: we cannot do everything. Never have. Never will. It’s not possible.
So here are four ways to reduce the number — and size — of the items on your plate: Read More→

Treating Depression With Hypnosis
Posted by: | CommentsDepression is a debilitating disorder that destroys lives. Not just the life of the one suffering, but the lives of the family members, as well. There are numerous causes of depression, from physiological to situational. The recommended form of treatment for people with a chemical imbalance is a combination of medications and psychotherapy.
But for those who suffer from situational depression, then hypnosis is the ideal solution. Situational depression, although temporary, can last for several years. This form of depression is caused by a negative circumstance in your life, such as divorce, bereavement, separation from a loved one (a spouse in the armed forces), care-giving an elderly parent, loss of a job or house, or any other devastating life change. Some of these situations are short-term, while others may go on for years. Thus, you cannot afford to stay depressed while you wait for the situation to change. Read More→
Hypnosis to Treat Panic Attacks in Children
Posted by: | CommentsPanic attacks are a type of anxiety disorder that can occur at any time in a person’s life, including childhood. The trigger is different for everyone. It might be caused by a traumatic incident or it might occur suddenly, seemingly without provocation. A very shy child might be bullied at school and begin dreading going to school. Those feelings may escalate into fear and before you know it, the child is having full-blown panic attacks.
There is a high probability that people who suffer from panic attacks as adults also suffered from them as children. Unfortunately, many parents are dismissive of their child’s symptoms simply because they do not recognize them for what they are. Even health professionals may mistakenly diagnose a child as being “high strung” or mislabel them as having Attention Deficit Disorder. The danger of a wrong diagnosis is that the physician will prescribe drugs, rather than delve further into the child’s psyche. While these medications may have a positive physiological effect on the child, panic attacks are predominantly psychological in nature, and drugs will not alter the child’s thought processes nor address the child’s fears.

Stop Panic Attacks With Self-Hypnosis
Posted by: | CommentsThe Panic Attack Experience
You’re sitting in a crowded theater. Suddenly, the room starts to spin, your heart pounds so hard you’re sure the person next to you can feel the vibration. The nausea swells your throat and you feel like throwing up. You’re light-headed and feel like fainting. You want to get up and leave. You need fresh air. You need to splash cold water on your face. But you’re paralyzed with fear. You can’t move. You can’t speak. Your mouth feels dry. Your heart is throbbing wildly. Your brain is about to explode. You know you’re going to make a scene and be humiliated. You know you’re about to die.
