Overcome Your Phobia of Expressing Feelings

Learning how to express your feelings is crucial if you want to establish good communication with friends and family. When we hesitate to express our feelings, our relationships with the people in our life suffer. Many adults across the United States seriously struggle to express their feelings, which allows problems like stress, anxiety and depression to fester.

If you’re someone who battles with a phobia of expressing your feelings, hypnosis sessions with a certified hypnotist can help. Here’s how hypnosis can help you learn to identify your emotions and express yourself better.

How does hypnosis work?

When conducted by a professional hypnotist, hypnosis has been shown to be effective in helping patients cope with stress and anxiety. During a hypnosis session, the hypnotist induces a state of heightened concentration in the person receiving the treatment, allowing them to be more in tune with their consciousness and their underlying emotions. It is especially helpful for people who have bottled up years of emotions, such an angst, anger and unresolved trauma.

Many people find that they emerge from a hypnosis session with a much calmer and relaxed mind, saying that hypnosis helps ‘de-clutter’ the mind.

Why do I need to try professional hypnosis?

If we don’t address and reconcile with the build-up of emotions within us, our wearied mental state begins to affect our social life. You may find that your relationships with other people also start to deteriorate. Hypnosis sessions with a trained hypnotist can guide you towards healthier and more productive ways of dealing with your emotions so you can eventually express yourself better.

How will hypnosis help me overcome my phobia of expressing my feelings?

In our conscious state, our cluttered and anxious mind can set up all sorts of barriers to hinder our own understanding and acceptance of our emotions. Hypnosis induces a calm, trance-like state in which the patient experience heightened focus and concentration.

While the person undergoing hypnosis remains in this trance-like state, the hypnotist can use verbal cues or repetition to help them therapeutically. Your mind might open itself up to ideas and suggestions that you would have ignored in your normal state.

During hypnosis, our situation may start to appear more ‘clear’ to us in a way that it didn’t before. In short, hypnosis will enable your mind to process your emotions better, which will let you articulate how you feel about different things. So consider hypnosis an integral part of your journey towards self-acceptance, emotional maturity and better communication.
