Stress can take a lot out of you. When you feel overwhelmed and “up against the wall”, do you notice familiar headaches or backaches that you get in response to a stressful situation? Before you let this upset you, take the time to think about what type of stress you’re experiencing.

There are two types of stress: Eustress and Stress. Each is so different; one is actually useful while the other is harmful to your body.

Eustress is one of the helpful types of stress. Eustress is an anxious feeling that’s more akin to anticipation than dread. You may experience eustress before giving a presentation at work, before going on a job interview or when preparing a gourmet meal from a recipe you’ve never tried before.

Eustress happens, too, right before you need to exert physical force as it prepares the body for whatever is about to happen.

In eustress, you’re dealing with uncertainty, and the outcome isn’t fatal. It is the proper name for a man’s pounding heart as he produces the engagement ring or the bride’s pre-wedding jitters just as she’s about to walk down the aisle.

These are “good” stresses as they represent taking a step into the unknown toward a positive outcome. Stress or “distress”, on the other hand, is fear, anxiety, frustration and that overcoming sense of dread.

Ever experience “job burnout”? This is the result of working too long in a stressful environment. Exposure to stressful situations and people whose demands become stressful to you results in negative stress and burnout.

With stress, there’s nothing useful about it. It’s the warm-up act for a heart attack, stroke and emotional breakdown. Those who say they “work better under stress,” haven’t asked their immune system how it feels.

This could also affect your immune system! Living or working under stressful conditions for long periods of time is damaging to your immune system. Ever noticed how you’re more inclined to catch the office cold when you’re overworked than when you are not?

Your immune system can’t deal with the stress load and have enough left over to fight a bug. Stop and analyze your stress in a “mood journal” by writing down specific answers to these questions:

When observing your stress patterns, you can look at ways to change either your involvement with stress or your response to it. Is what you are feeling really harmful stress (distress) or just eustress?

If it’s actually eustress, then you can change what you say from, “I’m so stressed out over the vacation” to, “I’m so excited about our vacation!” You’ll be amazed how your body responds differently to each type of stress.

Lately, I have been helping many people with getting over the loss of a loved one. Grief. It’s tough to handle and if you are handling this alone, it’s even worse. What most people don’t know is that hypnotism is excellent in helping you get over the pain of grieving.

So, How Does This Actually Work?

In hypnosis and NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), we talk about association and disassociation. When you are associated to a thought, it can overpower you. So, what if you can learn to disassociate from the pain of grieving? That would be amazing.

At Plymouth Hypnosis Center, what I do is help you “move away” or disassociate from the pain — as if it were a movie, for instance. If the thoughts aren’t happening to YOU, and instead, you are experiencing this as if you were watching a movie, then the feelings become less intense. You’ve disassociated with the grief.

One of the questions I usually get, however, is “Can you make me forget…?” And, the answer is: No.

Aside from the fact that you can’t remove memories with hypnotism (contrary to what you see on TV and the movies), you really wouldn’t want to remove those memories, right?

But, what I can do is help you turn down the “volume” of those thoughts — so you can cope with them and get on with life.

And, once you’ve turned down the “volume” and disassociated from those powerful thoughts, you’ll feel better, think more clearly and be able to live again.

The memories will still be intact; they just won’t overpower you.

Lastly, I will teach you how to distort time. Since they say, “Time heals all wounds”, what if you learned how to make time fly… so that it feels like months or even years later. The pain diminishes even more.

If you need help in getting over a grieving process, call me at 610-397-1515 and we’ll talk in a free consultation. It’ll take about 40 minutes.

Whether the bedwetting happens in the home, at camp, at a hotel or whatever — it’s embarrassing and so time-consuming. And, the mental anguish is excruciating.

One of the techniques in helping my clients who come in for nocturnal enuresis or bedwetting is to help the client be aware of their sleep.

Unlike sleep alarms that just wake you up at night, you learn how to communicate with your body (with self-hypnosis) and you actually do wake up and run to the bathroom. This is effective and many of my clients see results almost immediately.

Hypnosis is better than drugs and there are no side-effects. If this is a problem for you or your family, call me at 610-397-1515 and we’ll talk.

Stress can make you feel terrible health-wise. While you might not immediately realize that you’re dealing with a high level of stress, however you may have felt that something is different physically.

Having the “jitters” or feeling nervous are signs of severe stress. So are other physical problems that you might dismiss at first. But this ailment can usually be traced back to the moment it began.

Maybe you began to struggle with physical symptoms after a loved one walked out on you or after a child was diagnosed with an illness? Perhaps, you witnessed a trauma or been through one yourself?

Situations such as those can cause stress that lasts for a period of time. The kind of feeling that persists is said to be a more serious form of stress and calls for a period of treatment to alleviate the problem.

How you choose to address stress management can vary from a few simple techniques to more in depth intervention such as medication or sessions with a counselor or a hypnotist. Sometimes handling the way you feel can be as easy as not doing what you’ve always done.

Everybody has stress. (The only time when you have no stress is when you are dead.) When you feel stress, your body will respond; it’s just the way it was meant to react. It’s fight or flight. This is a good thing in small doses; it’s for your protection and well being. But if your body is in a constant state of upheaval, this can lead to digestive problems, sleep problems and more.

When stress reaches the point where it’s causing you to miss out on life, getting help is the most important thing you can do for your mental health as well as your physical health.

Call me, Bryan Toder, now at 610-397-1515 and we’ll talk in a free consultation about how hypnosis can help you reduce and manage your stress.

Realize that stress management is not always a one step cure. It’s a process — a series of small steps that you can take. Results will vary and with help, you can learn how to cope and come out on the other side — to a healthier, happier you.

For the past seven years in my hypnosis center, I would normally get about two or three stress-related clients a month. The fear of driving over bridges and basic stress management were two of the most popular clients.

Then, an odd thing happened in October 2008. I started getting about 3-4 calls a week about stress! So, what happened?

Well, October was a very, very stressful month for most Americans. First, it was election time and the 2008 Presidential Election was probably one of the most competitive, nit-picky elections we have ever seen. (In fact, I pulled all of my advertising because people stopped reading the paper and listening to the news because they were so tired of it all.)

Next, was the economic condition of the country. At that time, most Americans believed the news they were told about the economy and they got stressed to the max. (Then, in 2009 when the economy really did tank, we got even more stressed!)

Also, the news was anything but positive. War, the bad economy, the dollar, jobs, kidnapped children, crime… Yikes! Talk about stress!


So, What Can We Do About It?

Hypnosis is one of the best ways to alleviate your fears and reduce your stress. Going to a qualified and certified hypnotist is one of your best choices to help reduce your stress.

Like most kids, I hated school. Not because it was school; just because. And, the stress was horrible, along with my skin.

Kids nowadays have a lot more stress to deal with. (We just had to make sure we locked our lockers and wore “mod” clothes.) They have the schoolwork, of course, but the social competition in schools is unbelievable.

You can’t make a move out there without wondering if it’ll end up on YouTube or FaceBook or on the news. Sex with consequences, sex at a younger age, sex with teachers — amazing.

So, is anyone surprised that kids these days are just too stressed to study? That’s where hypnotism can help out.

Did you know that that best way to study is to replicate the way a test is taken? Think about this: your child studies in bed or on the couch, his iPod playing, the dog is sleeping at his feet, his favorite soda, a snack, a text message now and then… it’s all very nice and comfortable. And, that’s how the information is going in.

Then, it’s test time. Fluorescent lights, sitting upright at his desk, other students in the room, no beverage, no snacks… the stress. And, then he’s going to try to extract the information and facts? Not easy to do.

So, what’s the best way to study? Well, the best case scenario is to have learned self-hypnosis, put oneself into a trance, study while in the trance and when the test time comes, repeat the hypnosis/study combination.

If the student doesn’t know self-hypnosis, the next best thing is to study the way the test is taken. Sitting upright. No music, snacks, dog, phone, text messages with friends, etc. Then, when the test is taken, the information flows out much easier.

Stress is an amazing phenomenon. It’ll keep you from remembering someone’s name (“…it’s on the tip of my tongue!”). It’ll stop you from seeing the keys on the table. Stress will be the main factor in weight gain because you use food to cope with the stress. And, stress will stop you from remembering the information when taking a test.

Self-hypnosis is the best way to combat the stress and it’s not so hard to learn. Go to a qualified and certified hypnotist for some lessons. (Don’t bother to try to learn it from a book; that’s like learning to sing from a book. Oh, and I can teach you self-hypnosis, if you are interested!)

So to get those grades, your best bet is to learn some self-hypnosis and put down that cell phone.
