Self Hypnosis for Stress

Some days, we may be feeling particularly overwhelmed with the feelings of stress and anxiety. It happens to us all, on some days everything seems to go wrong all at once. Self hypnosis can be a great way to relax the body and mind. Relaxation is the key to eliminating stress and anxiety which can help prevent panic attacks from occurring.

The first thing to do is find a quiet place where you can be alone with your thoughts. Don’t try to do anything or think about any one thing in particular. Instead, listen to your mind and do your best to relax. Achieving the hypnotic state is best achieved by letting it happen naturally.

If you are having a difficult time doing this, then try listening to some soothing music. If you live near the ocean it always helps to listen to the sound of the waves breaking on the shore to induce yourself into the hypnotic state.

If you aren’t able to reach this state of total relaxation, then don’t worry. Self hypnosis is a skill that takes practice in order to get it right the first time and feel fully relaxed. Whatever you do, don’t force your mind to do anything.

Some people have an easier time relaxing than others. Those that are high strung or feel constantly on the edge will usually need more time to practice. Set aside 30 minutes of time every day to practice total relaxation, and before long it will come naturally to you. Self hypnosis should always be a relaxing and pleasant experience.

A very popular method of deep relaxation is the Jacobson Progressive Relaxation procedure. This involves tensing each of the major muscle groups of your body (foot and lower leg on each side, upper leg and hip, abdomen, etc.). Tense the muscle group for a few seconds, then let go.

When you are trying to relax, you will most likely experience negative thoughts trying constantly to get inside your conscious mind. Make sure you do not dwell on these negative thoughts. Remember that negative thoughts induce negative emotions. If you stop the negative thoughts from gaining control, then you have a better chance at stopping the emotions from affecting you.
