Overcome Emetophobia: Self Help For Emetophobia

Emetophobia is the fear of vomiting or being sick, although if you suffer from emetophobia you do not need me to tell you that. It is also the fear of other people vomiting. It is a simple, straightforward phobia.

Not that that’s much consolation if you suffer from emetophobia, of course. It can be a hugely debilitating phobia. I have seen mothers who were unable to deal with their children at all if the children became ill and had to call their husband back from work from the other side of the country. I have seen people who couldn’t ever go out to a restaurant, or fly in a plane, or visit a friend or relative in hospital, for obvious reasons.

Where Does Emetophobia Come From?

Who knows? Probably the person got scared when they were vomiting as a child, that’s how these things normally begin. The truth is that it really doesn’t matter when or where emetophobia began for a person. It becomes a habit, a conditioned response: a kind of mental knee-jerk reaction, in fact.

How Self Hypnosis Recordings Can Help You To Overcome Emetophobia

If you were going to see a good hypnotherapist, one versed with NLP fast phobia cure techniques, then he or she would probably work very directly to recondition the response. Hypnotherapy, or self hypnosis recordings, tend to have to be more subtle in their approach and also tend to need to be listened to on more than one occasion in order to be effective. In fact, with problems such as emetophobia it can take a few weeks of listening to make the difference, although there are occasions when someone is suddenly immediately cured of this phobia.

Overcome Emetophobia By Joseph Clough

There aren’t that many good self hypnosis recordings that are directly targeted at the emetophobic. One good one, however, is Self Help To Overcome Emetophobia by hypnotherapist and trainer Joseph Clough. This recording is relatively new, and comes with a full sixty day money back guarantee.

Overcome Jealousy: Hypnosis For jealousy

Self Hypnosis To Overcome Jealousy

So what exactly is jealousy? It’s an out of control imagination, that’s what it is. And you can learn to overcome jealousy with self hypnosis.

Sometimes there is a good reason for being jealous, if your partner has cheated on you, for example. When I see clients in private practice for this, however, nine times out of ten there is no good reason for the feelings of jealousy. It’s just a habit that they learned, and the good news is that it doesn’t matter how the jealousy started, it’s possible to overcome jealousy either by seeing a good hypnotherapist or by listening to a well made self hypnosis recording.

Jealousy Is Another Word For Anger

Well it is usually another word for anger. In the majority of cases the result of jealous feelings is anger. Occasionally it results in withdrawn, moody behaviour but it’s usually anger. And then afterwards the jealous person gets to beat themselves up because they feel so bad about being so ‘stupid’ and over-reacting.

Jealousy Is Not Stupidity

If you were to wake up in the morning and have the thought, ‘shall I be cool, calm and collected today or shall I have jealous fits at the slightest provocation’, and you really had the choice, you would not be jealous. Not if you really had the choice. And if you really had the choice to feel calm and wonderful and you actually then deliberately and consciously chose to be in a jealous rage then yes, that would be stupid.

Jealousy Is A Habit

Our thoughts and behaviours are conditioned by the environment and our experiences and the mind makes ‘patterns’ of thinking depending upon this conditioning. So pretty much everything we think or do we have ‘learned’ to think or do, at least that is how it seems to me.

So jealousy works like this. You see (or imagine) some trigger situation, and that creates the feeling. Typically the ‘jealous’ person ‘sees’ (imagines) the thing vividly, and the more vividly they have the thought the bigger the feeling. Someone who has repeatedly been jealous for years will have so automated this through repetition that it can be seemingly instantaneous response.

Self Hypnosis To Overcome Jealousy

The way that self hypnosis works to overcome jealousy is to retrain this pattern of thought at an unconscious level so that the mind makes more useful and appropriate thoughts, so that the old thoughts simply do not impact upon their neurology. Then, through repetition of listening, the mind gets trained to have more appropriate thoughts at those times that would have been trigger situations, and that’s that. Sometimes other techniques are used to train your mind to make the thoughts of jealousy literally seem more distant in your mind, lessening or eliminating their impact upon your feelings.

That’s a bit like the difference between watching a horror film on a giant cinema screen with surround sound and watching the same film on a tiny little TV the other side of a big room. It may be the same film but it simply won’t affect you in the distance.

A good example of this kind of thing is Joseph Clough’s Overcome Jealousy. Joseph himself makes the point that if you could stop being jealous consciously, you would, but you can’t, because it’s an unconscious process. Hypnosis works with unconscious processes and therefore can be a very good way to overcome jealousy.

It is a good point.

Bulimia Self Help Hypnosis

Bulimia Nervosa – How Self Help Hypnosis Recordings Can Help

Bulimia is a very common eating disorder. It’s not easy to give accurate figures for the numbers of Americans suffering from this eating disorder because people with this problem tend to be secretive about it. Some research suggests that the figure may be about 1 per cent of the population suffer from bulimia, that ten times as many bulimia sufferers are female rather than male, and that the incidence of bulimics among women at college may be as high as five per cent

That’s millions and millions of people ...

Bulimia is a bad habit

That may seem to bit one heck of an understatement if you have been binging and throwing up several times a day for twenty years. It’s true, though. In essence bulimia is not complicated, it’s quite straightforward. The same kind of thing happens in the mind the same kind of way, over and over again.

Self Hypnosis Can Resolve Habits Such As Bulimia Nervosa

It may be a big bad habit but it can be sorted by listening to a self hypnosis recording, a good one, anyway. Writing as someone who has literally dozens of testimonials from girls and women I have helped to overcome bulimia using hypnosis, I know what I am talking about, from experience.

The way this works

When I see a client face to face I can do a whole host of things directly with them that are personal to the way that they think. Self hypnosis recordings have to be done in such a way that they can work with anyone. And the truth is, they don’t always work, not for everyone, but they do work surprisingly often, extremely often when the person...

Listens to the bulimia self hypnosis recording over and over and over again...

Self hypnosis recordings sometimes get immediate results but more often than not, they don’t. They require that you listen daily sometimes for weeks. The problem is that if you have spent half an hour a day for the last two weeks listening to your hypnosis recording and still find your head down the toilet, it can reduce your enthusiasm and motivation to keep listening!

Be Relentless To Overcome Bulimia

With self hypnosis recordings for bulimia, or self hypnosis for anything else for that matter, you have to get into the habit of listening repeatedly, even if there isn’t any noticeable difference for some time. When people can get into this habit, they are usually successful.

There are a range of self hypnosis recordings on the market, and of course all the good ones offer you a money-back guarantee. On this site www.selfhelprecordings.com there are a few good ones. Try Kathy Welter-Nichols' Overcome Bulimia, for example. It’s the result of years of successful clinical practice with eating disorders such as bulimia nervosa. Overcome Bulimia is also available from the UK.

Kathy Welter-Nichols is based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and also has a new website http://www.hypnosis-vancouver-toronto.com for her private one-to-one client work.

Stop Lying End Compulsive Lying

Self Hypnosis Recordings To Help You To Stop Lying

Compulsive lying is one of the most destructive things a person can do. In extreme cases it can lead to the break-up of relationships and marriage, the loss of the person’s job or career, or even a long term prison sentence (depending upon who the person has lied to and about what, naturally).

Types of compulsive lying

The most common category of ‘liar’ I get to see in private practice is the person who makes up a lie on the spot with the intention of avoiding the other person (and, themselves), feeling bad. This kind of reaction is a seemingly automatic, unconscious response and if you have been doing this kind of thing, the chances are that you have been lying for many years.

Exaggeration, mistruth and lying

Then there is the person who makes up outrageous stories about the things they have done, the jobs they have had, the places they have been to, the illnesses they have had, and so forth.

White lies

So called ‘white lies’ are commonplace. You may never have lied at all in your whole life but if you haven’t then you are exceptional. How many of us haven’t answered the phone and spoken to someone our partner really doesn’t want to speak to at that time and said something like, ‘I am sorry, she (he) is in the bath’ (out walking the dog, gone shopping, or whatever.

Repeated lying builds mistrust

I would guess that about eighty per cent of the people I have seen to get them to stop lying have been men who have lied so often that their partner has reached the end of their tether. After all, if someone can lie so much about even little things, what is to say they are not lying about bigger things? That’s generally the partner’s thought process.

Compulsive lying is a ‘habit’

Human brains make ‘habits’. The mind automates things so you don’t have to consciously ‘think’ every time you do something like open a door. Lying is a habit too.

Self hypnosis recordings to stop lying

What self hypnosis recordings do so well is reprogram these habits. A wealth of different techniques are used to help you to be more comfortable and at ease in those moments where previously you would have automatically lied.

Self hypnosis and NLP to stop compulsive lying.

Some recordings also include easy to learn NLP mind training exercises as a bonus, to help you ‘train’ your mind to be more under your control. One such recording is Stop Lying by hypnotherapist Debbie Williams available on this site http://www.selfhelprecordings.com

This is a new set of recordings, also available here Stop Lying Self Hypnosis and is guaranteed to help so feel free to try them out for yourself.

Stop Binge Drinking

Self Hypnosis Recordings To Stop Binge Drinking

As long as there has been alcohol, there has been binge drinking.

Think of the Vikings...

These days though, binge drinking problems seem to get more and more news coverage, and binge drinking amongst the world’s youth seems to be on the increase.

Why do people binge drink?

Well there are a whole host of reasons. For some it is peer pressure, for others alcohol takes the edge of social anxiety. I guess some people just like getting drunk. I know I used to binge drink from time to time when I was younger (much younger, it would kill me now...)

Binge drinking is a habit

Humans seem to love habits. Because your mind would be consciously overloaded if you had to cognitively process every tiny thing you did (which muscles do I use to lift up my arm, how do I focus my eyes to look at that mountain, etc), your mind makes patterns, and learns habits. These habits run like automated programs in the mind, so that people tend to have the same kinds of worries in the same kinds of ways, have the same kinds of hopes about the same kinds of things, and so forth.

Binge drinking thinking

If you were to ask a serial binge drinker, say someone who always gets hopelessly drunk on Saturday night, something like ‘Hey Dave, what are you planning to do next Saturday?’ You would almost certainly get one of more for the flowing types of answer...

‘I am looking forward to Saturday and getting really drunk’ (loaded, pissed up, obliterated – the English language has literally hundreds of words to describe inebriation) Or ‘I haven’t really given it much thought, I expect I will go out, have a load to drink and have a good time as usual’ Or ‘Ah, I am hoping not to get too drunk on Saturday, if I do it again my wife (partner, lover, boyfriend, sister, mother, father, dog, whoever) will be really angry if I get drunk again’.’ Or ‘I am glad you asked me that because this coming Saturday I am hoping I can control myself and not get hopelessly drunk like I usually do.’ Or ‘You know I am getting really worried about my drinking and health, I seem to always get drunk these days.’

Now, what is the common factor in all of the above answers? The answer is thinking about ‘drinking too much’. The person will inevitably look forward to it, hope they can control it, expect to do it, or worry about it. In each case the person has the thought of drinking too much in their mind.

How self hypnosis can stop binge drinking problems

What good self hypnosis recordings will do is repatterns these thoughts for you so that you begin to look forward to drinking moderately (if that is what you wish to do). It is the act of thinking about what you ARE going to do that influences you to change. The act of thinking about what you don’t want to do still involves thinking about what you don’t want to do. Where you have been isn’t important, where you are going is.

NLP recordings to help stop binge drinking

Some recordings have NLP exercises as well as relaxing self hypnosis tracks. One such is Debbie Williams’ new Stop Binge Drinking, which does both. Good self hypnosis authors tend to guarantee their work, and Debbie’s recordings come with a full 60 day money back guarantee.

The importance of persistence

Yes, sometimes someone will listen to a self hypnosis recording once and something wonderful will go ‘click’ in their mind and they will make a magnificent and marvellous change in their thinking there and then. Actually, this happens quite frequently, just ask any experienced hypnotherapist. Usually, however, it takes multiple ‘listenings’ to make a difference. It’s not exactly difficult to press ‘play’ in an mp3 player or cd player by the bed just before you drift off to sleep, though.

Stop Binge Drinking is also available from the UK.
