What is anxiety?
Have you ever thought through all the permutations of how a situation might play out?
That's anxiety!
It's a normal human response triggered by our amygdala, the part of the brain that processes threats. When faced with perceived danger, the amygdala kicks our body into "fight-or-flight" mode, releasing stress hormones like cortisol. This is helpful in truly dangerous situations. However, it can become amplified and lead to anxiety disorders.
Here at East Bay Hypnotherapy, we can help retrain your brain's response to anxiety, promoting relaxation and confidence, and reducing unwanted physical symptoms.
A three step solution
Observe
Realize that a healthy and balanced perspective has been lost. This is key and harder than you might think to realise when you are spiralling, or catastrophising
2. Regain
Regain equilibrium by using psychological techniques to combat and eliminate the physical and emotional threat response allowing you to address the cause of the distress with a balanced and healthy perspective.
3. Maintain
Maintain a healthy and objective perspective in the future by understanding what is truly important and what is not and how this relates to your passion and your sense of purpose in your life.
