Insomnia and Sleep Disorders HypnotherapyMore and more people cannot have a good nights sleep. It is very important for good health, performance at work, study, and general wellbeing. There are many sleep disorders:
And there is one very good treatment. Hypnosis. The most successful and the less invasive way to treat sleep problems. Remember - Hypnos was a Greek god of sleep. There could be many reasons for sleep disorders:
And many more. Hypnotherapy is very helpful in treating all of the above. Interestingly, very often the first very significant improvement for people seeing me for other conditions is better sleep. This usually happens even after the first session, because the relaxation techniques I teach in hypnosis lead naturally to the state similar to sleeping, and it is sometimes even difficult not to fall asleep when doing it at home. However, for lasting improvement it is important to treat the underlying issues and reasons for insomnia. It usually requires only a few sessions. Sometimes a bit more digging is required, and this would be if the sleeping disorder is or appears to be the only issue. Sometimes this is he case; it could be that we had some sleeping problems in the past, like noisy neighbours, we could not sleep for a few weeks because of that and perhaps it was also a difficult time for us (exams or first days at new job). We were so stressed about not being able to sleep, so stressed that we are not having enough sleep in this stressful situation, that stressing out about sleep became a habit, even when the neighbours moved out. Habits are working on the subconscious level, and during hypnotherapy they can be very easily reformed. Sometimes it maybe beneficial for client to have insomnia. It may seem ridiculous, because why somebody would like to suffer this way? But there are times when we are in very difficult life situations, and worrying about sleep, about not having enough energy or being sick protects us from other more difficult emotions. Usually client is not aware of this protection mechanism. The solution here is to find some other ways to cope; sometimes even awareness itself is enough. This is done in hypnotherapy, first by reaching the subconscious mind to find the real issues and then by using client's internal resources to find and implement solutions to deal with them differently.
