Growth Hypnosis offers hypnotherapy treatments for insomnia and sleep issues
Insomnia and sleep difficulties often go hand in hand with many others issues including depression, worry, anxiety and nervous exhaustion.
Whether you can’t get to sleep, or experience many intense dreams and awakenings during the night, sleep deprivation can have a severe impact on how you feel and your health in general. It can even impact seemingly unrelated issues such as weight gain, compulsive habits and more.
Excessive rumination, worry and emotional arousal during the day are key factors causing and maintaining sleep issues so there is often a spike during a time of personal national crisis such as the pandemic. Like most issues it can quickly become chronic as the emotional patterns become a locked in conditioned response. People literally develop a phobic response to bed time and waking in the night.
The worst thing is, the more you obsess on your sleep issues, the more severe and stubborn they seem to become. This viscous cycle appears to be the fundamental mechanism locking insomnia in place.
Breaking the vicious cycle of insomnia
At Growth Hypnosis we draw from a wide range of therapeutic disciplines including Hypnotherapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing), CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) and Mindfulness. This allows us to address all the elements which maintain the the poor sleep patters, starting with EMDR clear the negative conditioning, ending on hypnosis to re-program a healthy sleep pattern.
