Hypnosis is a very effective treatment of stress. According to experts, stress develops when a person feels the task in front of him is greater than the resources he can summon. This imbalance triggers stress. Hypnosis, however, changes this. Through hypnosis, this person can feel that he has all the resources necessary to do the task effeciently.

Dr. Lipton said that up to 90% of diseases are caused by stress. Persistent stress starves vital organs of nutrients and oxygen. This is fine on the odd occasion but when it becomes persistent, diseases are likely.

Stress is not caused by the situation you confront but by the way you perceive this situation and whether you feel you have the coping mechanisms to deal with it. Hypnosis works remarkably well in stress because it changes your perception, expectation and belief.

After a course of hypnosis, stressful situations are converted to easy to do things and are no longer stressful. The hypnotist has changed your belief and you now know that you can handle all problems as they occur because you have the required resources.

Hypnosis takes you down to a deep relaxed state and to brainwave level theta. At this level, the filters that block unwanted messages from entering the Subconscious Mind, relaxes and the hypnotist is then able to embed positive changes in attitude, belief and expectation.

Hypnosis is without doubt a powerful and safe treatment of stress and anxiety. Meditation is an effective tool and recommended for stress. It is, however, very difficult to see how a stressed person can relax, and if he or she cannot relax, meditation becomes very difficult.
