Hypnotherapy for Insomnia & Sleeping

Deep Relaxation is an important weapon in the battle for sleep. Hypnosis has been shown to be effective in treating insomnia and other conditions that have a detrimental affect on sleep. Anxiety, pain, smoking and illness all affect sleep and cause insomnia. Learning how to relax and changing the thought processes and behaviours that support these behaviours will improve sleep quality.

Doctors and therapists use Hypnotherapy for a number of conditions, and techniques are tailored to the individual. It may be used as part of a programme to resolve sleep problems and Insomnia.

Self Hypnosis can help with learning relaxation techniques and with removing some of the anxiety that often affects sleep. There are a number of books, CDs, workshops and other resources available that provide information and guidance. Qualified Hypnotherapists such as Rona work with individuals to resolve negative behaviours and initiate improvement in sleep quality.

People are looking beyond pills and potions to find a long term solution for insomnia and to improve the quality of their sleep. Hypnotherapy is one of a number of Mind Body approaches that aim to achieve long term improvement and increase health and well being.

Hypnosis or Hypnotherapy is a therapy where the subject is guided into a state of deep relaxation. They are then more able to receive suggestions that will influence and improve how they feel and act during their waking life.

Hypnosis is one of a number of therapeutic techniques that aim to reduce tension in the body leaving the mind more open to the introduction of positive suggestions. A Hypnotherapist guides an individual into a state of deep relaxation and focused concentration. Therapists use a number of techniques but these will usually include deep muscular relaxation and guided imagery.

The Hypnotic State, which may or may not include going into a trance, results in a number of physiological changes. These include decreased blood pressure, a slowing down of the heart rate and increased brain wave activity.

Hypnotherapy is seen as a way of reaching into the subconscious mind. The behaviour and thought patterns that are having a negative affect on life are sometimes 'set' and difficult to change. By accessing the deeper layers of consciousness it is possible to 'install' suggestions that will remain once the subject wakes up. It can also influence thought processes and negative emotions that are proving hard to dispel.

Rona offers insomnia and other sleeping disorder hypnosis sessions for £65 for a one to two hour session, which includes an MP3 download of the session for future self hypnosis. For most people a single session can be very effective for insomnia and very affordable when used in conjunction with the MP3 download. For other people there is benefit in one or two subsequent sessions.

 A comment from a recent insomnia client -

Hi rona

"Many thanks for the recording which I used last night and it certainly helped get me back to sleep when I woke during the night.

I felt very good today as I was in a printing group all day with some friends, one of whom put a small pile of chocolate Minstrels in front of me mid morning and told me to help myself. I got through the whole day without eating one of them and really didn't feel deprived. In fact, everyone else ate some and then said they had eaten too many and didn't feel good so I felt very smug!

I feel my sessions with you have really helped me take back a lot of control in my life and I already feel much better for that so many thanks! I am amazed it has happened so quickly.

I really feel your approach to my problems is making a huge difference and nothing I have tried before has had such a dramatic effect, and I feel I have really tried just about everything else."

Best wishes
Michaela.
