“We are not afraid of what we think we are afraid of. We are afraid of what we think about it”
Every day debilitating fears and anxieties cause thousands of people here in Ireland unnecessary distress. People will deliberately avoid Social and work situations because these feeling are so powerful. They miss out on holidays, family occasions, business opportunities rather than risk feeling these feelings. They turn down job offers or promotions where been centre of attention might be a part of the job, restricting their lives and careers needlessly. These feelings are more than the average concerns most people have and are often due to low self esteem, lack of confidence and other negative feelings people have about themselves.
“I still can’t thank you enough for all of your help this year. You have such a fantastic way of helping people and I wish all of my friends could visit you because they could really do with it but I guess I am the lucky one out of the group ;) thanks a million for your hard work this year”
Nobody needs to suffer from fear or anxiety.
It can be because of that constant feeling of Foreboding that permeates even the simplest of decisions. Other symptoms often include: Shortness of breath, Rapid Breathing, Sweating, Feelings of dread, Panic, Mind racing, Faint feelings, blushing.
Do you recognise these symptoms?
“Hi Sean, Firstly, I want to say thank you. I know it’s your job, but it’s a pretty great job that can have such a positive impact on someone’s life. As you know blushing was a massive issue for me for as long as I can remember and I’m still completely amazed that hypnotherapy can ‘fix’ it. At school, college & since I started my career I would have spent time every day worrying about getting embarrassed, to the extent that I’d put things off and avoid conversations with people. After my last session with you, I was still expecting it to happen.
At work, I wasn’t getting embarrassed but I’d get that anxious feeling I always got prior to getting embarrassed, but that’s as far as it went. It was the fear of it happening, but after a week or so I realised I wasn’t going to blush and then that horrible feeling disappeared also.
Everyday things like discussions with the partners, colleagues & speaking within a group situation have become a novelty! It’s absolutely brilliant. The whole experience & not having to worry about blushing anymore has given me a huge boost of confidence. I’m the same person, just an improved version! ”
Many of my clients have, in the past, been prescribed sedative medication to numb their anxieties during and leading up to work or social occasions. Maybe even just one to one meetings or bumping into someone you didn’t expect to meet. Unfortunately the list is endless.
“Hi Seán,
Apologies for the belated nature of this email. I promised I’d send a mail to let you know how I was getting on. Since attending the hypnotherapy sessions there has been a massive improvement in the quality of my life. One of the things we worked on was enclosed spaces e.g. elevators, meeting rooms. I can really see a huge difference I now have weekly meetings and can get into elevators. ”
Drugs don't cure phobias.
Medication can be used, but like all anxiety medication, the symptoms return once the medication leaves the system.
I will use Hypnotherapy and Transformational Coaching to offer you a drug free and permanent solution. I will quickly and comfortably help to uncover and remove the root cause of the symptoms. No matter what the fear is based on.
In most cases this treatment requires a short course of approximately three to four sessions in which the link is made with the thoughts and memories and the trapped emotions released .
“Dear Sean
Just a note to let you know that I made it into work fine, and even managed to walk through the Ilac Centre without the legs going to jelly. I did at one stage feel my heart starting to pound but the feeling just seemed to disappear. So far, I’m feeling fine, and I felt fine out at lunch too.
Many thanks.”
“Hi Sean...
Its Ciaran Lynch here. Just wanted to thank you for all the help you gave me in being able to sit my exams as I felt a lot more at ease and less stressed. I have to say I feel a lot better in myself and have more self-confidence in my ability to succeed. This is all due to the help I received from you. I would gladly recommend to anybody in the same position as I have been to come and see you.
Thanks again for all the help”
