Reduce anxiety
This can take the form of generalised anxiety, panic attacks, irrational fears, phobias, lack of
confidence or overwhelming stress and pressure. You will be given an understanding of what
is causing these feelings and you will be shown how to overcome them allowing you to quickly
regain control of your life. All can be treated swiftly by any HG
therapist.
Break the cycle of depression
When we are stressed, our sleep pattern is disturbed and instead of waking refreshed in the
mornings, we quite often waken feeling worse. We then start the day on the wrong foot and
needless to say accumulate further emotional stress throughout the day resulting in even more
disturbance in our sleep pattern. Soon we are either not sleeping at all – or else, we are
sleeping exhaustively, yet still un-refreshingly. We call this the cycle of depression.
Any HG therapist can help you to quickly break this vicious circle
and restore you to normal emotional health.
Resolve trauma
Trauma is very personal – if two people undergo the same event one may be traumatised and
the other not. Often although we are traumatised at the time of an event, we do not take
action – expecting the effects to calm down or simply go away.
Unfortunately, a truly traumatic event will often remain with us for many years unless dealt
with properly. When the traumatic event has happened in the distant past – it often surprises
people to find out that their current behaviour or distress is related to that same event.
Whether the trauma is recent or in the distant past, Human
givens therapists can treat PTSD effectively and quickly.
Help you stop inappropriate anger
Anger-disorders can be very disruptive often leading to violence and criminality. It also
increases stress and can damage health. It is a major contributor in relationship breakdowns
and can cause enormous misery among relatives, colleagues and even innocent bystanders.
Anger is most frequently an unconscious pattern-match between a current event and a past
emotionally upsetting memory. HG therapy very quickly identifies
the cause of the anger and alleviates the problem. Often even ‘life-long’ anger can be resolved
in just a few visits.
Stop addictive behaviour
Providing the person wants to make the effort to stop - all forms of addiction can be helped.
All human beings have the ability to become addicted – but where our needs are being met in a
balanced way we are not as susceptible to addiction. To put it very simply, when life gets us down
and we are distressed, we are at risk.
An HG therapist will use several techniques to help you refocus
attention and skills on having these unmet needs satisfied, so that the addiction can be quickly
brought under control.
Relieve medical conditions
Many conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, asthma, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic pain
and migraine, have an emotional component. Stressful events often trigger an outbreak because
emotions affect health — and vice versa. An HG therapist will quickly
help you to identify and deal with whatever stress levels are in your current lifestyle, allowing
the body to restore your physical health more quickly.
Harmonise relationships
Relationship difficulties are often self-perpetuating because our beliefs and reactions to one
another trigger patterns of behaviour which stop us solving them. These patterns of behaviour
are often learned either in our formative years as we grow up, or perhaps in previous
relationships – either way, they can be very destructive in a current relationship.
Sometimes couples get to a point where they do not know if they want to stay together or
not. An HG therapist will help each individual identify their needs
and how well they are currently being met by their partner, and help them plan a future course of
action.
OCD
We all use distraction to avoid things at times in life - an OCD sufferer is doing the same thing
that we all do – but doing it excessively. Each individual’s case is different but there are some
common themes – earlier childhood disturbing event, current life stresses or pending future
events, and quite often there are important needs not being met in the individual’s life. You
may or may not be consciously aware of any of these potential causes, however your
unconscious certainly knows – after all, it’s causing the behaviour in the first place.
An HG therapist will help you to identify what the likely cause of
your OCD is and help you alleviate the behaviours where possible, while teaching you self-control
techniques – a survival kit, to limit the behaviours and reduce the impact OCD is having on your
life.
