Overcome Sleep Disorders & Sleep Well With Solution-focused Hypnotherapy
Good quality sleep is essential for our physical, mental and emotional health. However, insomnia - a common problem in many people – can be caused by factors like worrying, shift work, alcohol, certain drugs, physical pain and depression. Other problems like nightmares, sleepwalking, sleep apnoea and teeth grinding can also lead to daytime tiredness.
Sleeping pills cause less deep sleep and less dreaming sleep, both of which are needed to feel healthy and happy. As tolerance for the drugs develops, increasing dosages are required to maintain sleep.
Solution-focused hypnotherapy provides quick and effective ways to overcome sleep disorders, including:
- teaching ‘sleep hygiene’ to improve the likelihood of sleep
- reconditioning responses to bedtime
- substituting unhelpful patterns of ‘staying awake’ with more sleep-inducing thoughts and behaviour
- teaching self-hypnosis to get back to sleep
- teaching skills of deep relaxation.
Clients often find that just one session can help them to change their night-time routines and start sleeping more deeply.
