Hypnotherapy Auckland

There may be medical reasons why you are not sleeping, but when these are ruled out, what is left to? A glass of Milk. Ear Muffs? Dark curtins? Or, there is Hypnosis.

The path from consciousness to sleep is like a highway running through your mind. It is huge. Your entire physiological structure is designed to gain benefit from sleep. It is why people spend so much of their lifetime doing it. So if you are not sleeping it isn’t because you can’t, instead it is like you have a road block on that highway. Your unconscious mind has decided it is not the appropriate time, or place, or perhaps  safe for you to move from consciousness to sleep. Exactly why is different for everyone. Hypnosis is about moving that block, teaching your mind that sleep isn’t a time for worrying, stressing or thinking, and resetting the naturally process we call sleep.

Case examples of the types of people who can benefit with hypnosis for sleep issues.

1. A person who has slept well and now suddenly isn’t sleeping. Generally what we have here is a stressful event that has come into the person’s life.  The brain is going “we have to sort this issue out.”  Using hypnotherapy, the event is worked through and sleep returns to its normal pattern
2. The constant worrier. This isn’t a single issue that keeps a person awake but rather a habitual way of thinking. Always finding something to ponder, the mind always in high gear. Hypnotherapy can be used to help slow though process down and by doing this sleep can then occur.
3. Nightmares, night terrors. This person gets to sleep but has nightmares that wake them, or keep them awake because they don’t want to experience them again. Hypnotherapy is a an effective way to  bring about a more contented pattern of sleep with out the dreams.
4. Scared to sleep when on their own. Children and adults fall into this category, when anxiety occurs if sleeping alone. Often this has occurred because a change in a childs sleeping habits such as sleeping with parents. For adults a number of factors can be evolved. However once the anxiety is resolved, sleep occurs easily.
5. Constantly Disrupted. A person who sleeps is constantly disrupted and never forms a sleeping pattern.
6. Night shift workers. People who constantly fly. Hypnosis in this instance is all about re-establishing a sleeping pattern.

Sleeping is the most natural thing a person can do. If it is time for you to get back in the habit of good sleeping, perhaps hypnotherapy is for you.
