Hypnotherapy for fear… of spiders!
I have lost count of the number of times I have heard people say about the spiders they are finding in their homes at the moment. These little creatures are busy at this time of the year – and not everyone is a fan! For some, their phobias of spiders can really affect their daily lives – they feel fear when they spot them, and they do all they can to avoid being near them.
Its a common phobia, and one we may have learned when we were young. You may have no recollection about the first time you felt afraid of a spider, but your mind and body shows the same response with every contact you have. That very first fright has a lasting impact.
Hypnotherapy can help you overcome fears and phobias. Your conscious mind may have recognized times when your phobia is irrational, but you can’t change the fear you feel. This is because of an underlying belief developed earlier in life, deep in your unconscious. You may also struggle to stop your unconscious from triggering the anxiety and fear.
Whilst in a hypnotherapy session, you will enter what is termed an altered state of consciousness. It will allow your unconscious mind to become alert and focused. This ‘control centre’ will give you opportunities to alter perceptions and emotions, because this is where your fear or phobia operates from.
