ANXIETY - THERE IS GOOD AND BAD

As humans, we have evolved to protect ourselves, one of the ways we do that is through the ‘fight, flight or freeze’ reaction, a natural response to stimuli.

If our brains perceive a threat or danger, it releases hormones to prepare us to run away, fight, or freeze. These hormones include adrenaline and cortisol, and they make us feel more vigilant of what’s happening. They also make our hearts beat faster, so blood is sent where it’s needed the most when we’re under attack.

Have you ever found yourself deeply absorbed in a movie, TV Show or book? If so, you may have already experienced forms hypnosis, it is a naturally occurring state of consciousness.

Hypnosis can be induced with help from a therapist or alone. In self-hypnosis, you listen to your own suggestions to achieve your goals.
