Fear, worry, insecurity are all names for the same thing and can prevent you from living your life to the fullest!

Sometimes we are clear about what is causing the internal alarm bells to go off and sometimes we dont, in any case perhaps you have had some of the experiences below...

• shaky, jittery, or nervous?   
• tense, fearful, or apprehensive?
• you have to avoid certain places or activities because of fear?
• your heart pounding or racing?
• you have trouble catching your breath when nervous?
• you have any unjustified sweating or trembling?
• you felt like you have a lump in your throat?
• have you suddenly had a fear of losing control or going crazy?
• have you suddenly had a fear of dying? 

Excessive fear and worry can not only harm you emotionally, they can also be harmful to your physical health.  When these feelings are ongoing over the long term they can increase blood pressure, heart rate and inflamation.  These are known contributors to heart disease.

What Is Fear?

Fear is a normal human emotional reaction - it is a built-in survival mechanism with which we are all equipped. Even as babies, we possess the survival instincts necessary to respond when we sense danger. Fear is a reaction to danger that involves the mind and body. Fear serves a protective purpose - signaling us of danger and preparing us to deal with it.

A fear reaction happens whenever we sense danger or when we're confronted with something new or unknown that seems potentially dangerous. Fear can be brief - like the startled reaction you have if a balloon unexpectedly pops or if you are surprised by something you didn't expect. This is often over in seconds, as soon as the brain gets enough data to realize there's no danger. If the brain doesn't receive the "all clear" signal, fear can last longer and feel more intense.

Hypnosis can help you deal with the cycle of endless worry and will NOT take away your ability to respond to danger!

What are Phobias?

A phobia is an excessive or unreasonable fear of an object, place or situation. Simple phobias are fears of specific things such as insects, infections, flying. Agoraphobia is a fear of being in places where one feels "trapped" or unable to get help, such as in crowds, on a bus, or standing in a queue. A social phobia is a marked fear of social or performance situations.

Phobias are extremely common. Sometimes they start in childhood for no apparent reason; sometimes they emerge after a traumatic event; and sometimes they develop from an attempt to make sense of an unexpected and intense anxiety or panic (e.g. "I feel fearful, therefore I must be afraid of something").
