Fears and phobias can be surprisingly powerful. You might logically know that a spider, a lift, a flight or a presentation isn’t truly life-threatening; and yet your body reacts as if it is. If this sounds familiar, hypnosis for fears and phobias in Hampshire could offer the breakthrough you’ve been searching for.
Why Phobias Are So Strong
Phobias are usually learned responses stored deeply in the subconscious mind. They might come from:
- A frightening experience (for example, a turbulent flight or being stuck in a lift)
- A childhood message or story that lodged in your mind
- Observing someone else’s fear and absorbing it as your own
Once planted, the subconscious behaves as if it’s keeping you safe; sending out panic and dread whenever you come close to the trigger.
How Hypnosis Helps You Break Free
Hypnotherapy works by speaking directly to the part of your mind that holds the fear. In a calm, deeply relaxed state, we can:
- Identify and soften the root of the fear
- Rewire your emotional response to the trigger
- Install calm and confidence where panic used to be
This makes hypnosis ideal for fears such as:
- Fear of flying
- Fear of heights
- Fear of public speaking
- Fear of driving or motorways
- Social anxiety and performance fears
- Claustrophobia and agoraphobia
