Healing with Hypnosis 

Whether you're one of the millions of people who have trouble falling asleep at night - or if you know someone who does - Hypnosis may well be the answer. Hypnosis is a safe, natural and long-term solution to your sleepless nights. The relaxing and calming effects of hypnosis makes it an ideal tool to use for insomnia. Unlike some sleeping medications hypnosis has no unpleasant side effects.

General information on insomnia and sleep problems

We are all born with a natural ability to fall asleep easily. That is why insomnia is more often than not a habit or a side effect of more general stress.

Hypnotherapy can help with getting to sleep by:

• Re-educating your mind to expect to enjoy a good night's sleep
  
• Teaching new relaxation techniques to help your mind and body to slow down at the end of the day. Sleeping becomes much easier in this state.
  
• Helping you to learn techniques to remove some of the noise from a racing mind. Insomnia and most sleep problems are a very modern phenomenon and representative of the pace of modern life
• Helping you to understand some of the causes of insomnia and sleeping problems.

Generally, hypnotherapy clients' sleep problems fall into two categories. The first is simply not being able to fall asleep at night. The second involves waking up at an inconveniently early hour and not being able to fall asleep again. Learning effective self-hypnosis skills can help you to significantly improve your sleep patterns and can help with indirect effects of insomnia and sleep problems such as daytime anxiety and bruxism (teeth grinding during the night).

The moments before sleep are scientifically measurable as 'hypnotic'. If you can learn to achieve this comfortable, daydreamy state at will, you will become a sleep expert. Imagine the benefits this will bring to your daily life - more energy and enthusiasm, better health, confidence and motivation.

Chronic insomnia and sleep disorders

Many people experience a bad night's sleep for various reasons, commonly because they have something on their mind. However, if your sleeping problems continue for more than a couple of days at a time, you must go and see a doctor, to check that your sleeplessness isn't a more serious condition requiring medical treatment.
