Sleeplessness...
A Self-fulfilling Prophecy
Consider your life and habit
patterns, and see your doctor first before utilizing the benefits of hypnosis
to create the change you need.
After stressful day, with problems
remaining unresolved, and tomorrow promising to be worse; you really need
night of restful and restorative sleep. Thoughts and feelings flood
your mind and keep you worrying, and you feel doomed to face another sleepless
night. Your belief that you cannot or will not sleep can become a
self fulfilling prophecy. A few sessions of hypnosis could help you change
your attitude and eliminate your fears. Learning
self-hypnosis
techniques can help to resolve problems; and in the process provide you
the tools you need to handle future problems in a less stress producing
manner.
How
Are You Affected?
-
You feel restless and lie awake
for hours before finally drifting into brief and fitful sleep.
-
You fall asleep promptly, then
awaken later with your mind racing, then thrash around restlessly for the
rest of the night.
-
You drift in and out of sleep
all night long, arising in the morning exhausted.
What
Causes Your Sleeplessness?
-
Too much coffee, tea or cola?
-
Strenuous physical or mental activity,
emotional conversations or challenging work or games just before bedtime?
-
Daytime napping?
-
Worrying?
We have all forfeited sleep
due to excitement. Anticipating an important event, happy or otherwise,
can disrupt sleep. Occasional trouble sleeping is rarely cause for
concern. But when an overactive mind attempts to deal with tension,
anxiety, pain or problems, sleepless nights become predictable.
What's
the Answer?
Very often, following a a
deeply relaxing hypnotic session even without specific suggestion for sleep,
the client will sleep very soundly due to the deep relaxation achieved
during the session itself. Direct suggestions produce greater effectiveness.
Post hypnotic suggestions and instruction in self hypnosis given during
a hypnosis session helps to produce sleep. My clients are provided with
a CD of their session so it is available for use at bed time.
Self-Help
If you have trouble sleeping,
there are many self help techniques
to aid you in overcoming your difficulty. It's important to determine
specific deterrents to sleep may be present in your diet, habits or surroundings.
After making lifestyle changes that you can, hypnotic suggestion can help
you minimize or disregard those that you can not.
