Treatment For

UNWANTED HABITS

Unwanted Habits or Better Performance

We all have bad habits that we’d like to control. Whether it’s biting your nails, chewing your hair, or something more drastic like smoking or overeating, the behavioural cycle and mind’s reaction are very much the same. We need help to break bad habits.

Regardless of your particular habit, or how deeply ingrained it is, hypnotherapy is a safe and effective treatment. My advanced hypnotherapy gives you an extra edge to kick your habit as we all know how hard it can be to break such an engrained cycle alone. Our minds are unbelievably powerful and can sometimes become our own worst enemy.

How are Habits Formed.

Habits are formed and stored in our subconscious minds so we are often unaware we are doing that thing until it’s too late, then we are left feeling annoyed or disgusted in ourselves which then can lead us to repeat the habit and the urge to want to do that thing again increases because it offers us even if its tiny or brief a sense of comfort, safety or enjoyment. Habits left to their own devices will just continue and be repeated as that’s what your subconscious mind is designed to do.

Once we have learned something, we repeat and repeat until that thing is stored, and then we work on autopilot. The problem with this is that as well as learning good and resourceful skills and habits, we also learn bad ones, and these are destructive or not helpful long-term.

Good and Bad Habits

You may have an unwanted habit such as:

Hair pulling
Biting nails
Misuse of alcohol
Perfectionism
Teeth-grinding
Smoking

You may want better habits such as:

Sports performance
Journally
Eating Better
Goal Setting
Better Routines
Exercise

How does hypnotherapy help unwanted habits?

The focused concentration and relaxation that occurs during hypnosis make you very mindful of your actions. Your bad habit probably happens subconsciously – how many times have you suddenly realised you’ve been biting your nails for the last few minutes without realising?

We can use a variety of techniques depending on your unique situation to help reverse the behaviours that have been learnt and replace them with powerful and positive affirmations.

We can achieve change very quickly with hypnosis.
