Podcast 14: Chronic pain management with hypnotherapy. Looking at how hypnotherapy can help you manage the symptoms of chronic pain. There will also be a free hypnotherapyaudio at the end of this podcast that you can enjoy, keep and come back to time and time again. 

Why do we feel pain? Pain is a signal that tells us something needs addressing. Our bodies can only communicate with us through sensations. This includes telling us where the pain is, is it continuous or varying and can range from mild pain to excruciating agony.

We have many different word to describe pain and discomfort this might be sharp, dull, throbbing, nagging, it could be a burning sensation or itchy, an ache, a numb or pins and needles type feeling.

Pain can be an indicator of many different things so it’s important you don’t self diagnose. Get checked out by your GP and make sure you follow any advice they give you. Chronic pain can be a mild inconvenience or totally incapacitating. 

  • Acute pain, this starts suddenly and is usually short-term.
  • Neuropathic or nerve pain that can come and go. 
  • Visceral pain is felt when organs or tissues are damaged.
  • Psychological pain or mental pain, this is an unpleasant feeling (a suffering) of a psychological, non-physical, origin. This isn’t to say it’s “all in your head” or that you’re making it up this means there is a psychological reason for your pain, your brain is sending signals down to your body that cause you to experience physical discomfort.
  • Chronic pain is felt over a longer period of time, usually defined as chronic after 12 weeks of discomfort.

We need to address psychological as well as the physical aspects of a pain condition. Taking painkillers is a good, short term solution but what are the underlying causes? Is stress a factor? It usually is in some shape or form, being in pain is a huge stressor which you can improve and reduce with relaxation techniques like hypnotherapy. Pain doesn’t usually exist alone, it might also cause

  • Insomnia or disruption to your sleeping pattern. It’s hard to get comfortable enough to sleep when you’re in pain.
  • Fatigue, it’s exhausting being in chronic pain. It can take all your energy to do the most basic jobs.
  • Generalised discomfort.
  • Withdrawal from activity and an increased need to rest.
  • Not being able to socialise or visit loved ones.
  • Weakened immune system.
  • Changes in your mood.
  • Physical disability.

Today’s podcast will include techniques you can use to build the resources you will need  to manage chronic pain effectively.

Depression is a very complicated subject, people can experience mild, moderate or major depression.

Major depression is among the worst diseases a person can suffer. To really understand depression we need to look at the biology of depression as well as the psychological factors.

It can be hard to admit you are depressed as it can be judged as a self indulgence or an illness for those who don’t just pull it together in times of stress or anxiety. Have you ever been told to just “pull yourself together”? Would a person with a broken leg be told to just walk it off! Depression affects an estimated 350 million people around the world.

Podcast 12: Manage psoriasis and eczema with hypnotherapy. Looking at how hypnotherapy can help you manage the symptoms of psoriasis and eczema with suggestions to reduce the amount of discomfort and disruption these cause. There will also be a free hypnotherapy audio at the end of this podcast that you can enjoy, keep and come back to time and time again. 

Stress causes a strain on the immune system, short term stress can boost the immune system but long term stress causes a fatigue – this stress on your immune system can cause an outbreak of psoriasis or eczema. 

Do you find you experience a flare up of psoriasis or eczema when you’re under pressure? When you have a lot to get done or when an unexpected stress or drama in your life pops up?

Hypnotherapy can be used in many different ways to reduce stress and to help build coping strategies to deal with the challenges you face on a daily basis. Hypnotherapy can also be used to boost your confidence and self esteem, it's common to need a bit of a boost if you’ve felt self conscious about past flare ups of psoriasis or eczema.

Hypnotherapy can also be used to challenge subconscious limiting behaviours – not wearing certain things, or always wearing a cardigan or jumper. Maybe you avoid doing things like swimming or going out with friends. Is there anything you can think of that you avoid if you have had a flare up in the past?

During the hypnosis trance we can use direct and indirect suggestions to help you heal your skin and stop the problem coming back as regularly as it might have in the past.

Today’s podcast will include suggestions that are directed at healing and soothing your skin. We will go for a walk in a sunny field and then take a dip in a cooling pool so if these are things that cause a flare up for you, you might want to follow the relaxation but just don’t go in the water and make sure you think about yourself as covered up in the sun during the relaxation.

In next week’s podcast I’ll be talking about exam success and how you can use hypnotherapy to help you succeed in exam situations.

Relaxation techniques like hypnotherapy help you create the same calm and relaxed mental state you need for success, it's in you right now so all you need do is teach your sub conscious mind to narrow its focus and you will be able to study more effectively.

You can train yourself to focus on any chosen goal where and when you need to, becoming the master of your own concentration! Imagine how confident you will be going into an exam knowing that you have studied to your full ability and been able to focus entirely on your learning, with clear concentration. This focus, this clear concentration will also stop you from getting distracted from your goals and stay on track to success.

Today’s podcast will include a technique you can use to focus on your studying and develop powerful concentration, we will also go through a visualisation that will help rid you of self doubts.
