			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Stress can play havoc in all areas of your life, in your mind and your body.  If you find yourself feeling irritable, neck or shoulder pains, tension headaches, disturbed sleep - these are all signals from your subconscious mind that you are overloaded from a stress point of view.  With guided relaxation (hypnosis) you learn how to relax your mind and body and just let go.  This benefit of time for you allows your subconscious mind to re-calibrate itself and your quality of sleep improves.  This in turn has a positive knock-on effect because when you sleep well, you can see things from a different, more objective perspective, your ability to adapt to changes during your day is easier and rather than getting stressed when thwarted, you flow easily from one task to another, as if relishing the opportunity.  With stress management using hypnosis, you gain a greater understanding of what your stress triggers are and how you can become more adept at changing your response to these triggers.  Your subconsious mind is your powerhouse, where all your feelings and associations are stored along with your habits and reactions.  Because it is your subconscious mind, you can make any changes you want (rather like reprogramming your computer) and the only way to access your subconscious mind is to be relaxed (i.e. hypnosis).  What difference would that make to your life &#8211; learning to manage your stress, what would work be like for you, your homelife and for yourself.</p>
<p>If you are interested to learning new ways or gaining insight into your inner resources, give me a call on 086 1038892 or email at <a href="mailto:zita@zitastanley.com">zita@zitastanley.com</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Can you see how worn down your teeth are from grinding them?  Do you grind/clench your teeth during the day?  Teeth grinding as sufferers will be aware can cause tension headaches as well as discomfort in the jaw area with varying degrees.  Why do you grind your teeth?  At night-time our subconscious minds use the time to unravel and clear what is bothering us.Teeth grinding can be a subconscious call to find ways to relieve tension.  How can hypnosis help?  Hypnosis helps by helping you to relax your jaw.   An instruction might be in insert your tongue between your teeth &#8211; try this now &#8211; it is impossible to grind your teeth and you immediately know that your jaw is relaxed.  With hypnosis you are relaxing all of your body muscle with the emphasis on your jaw muscles in this case as you will find that you will wake up feeling good having had a good night&#8217;s sleep.  It is important to find a way to deal with your stress as this is the underlying problem that needs to be addressed and teeth grinding is a symptom, a very uncomfortable symptom of stress.  Hypnotherapy can help to uncover the reason for your underlying tension and give you better coping techniques.</p>
<p>For 1 &#8211; 1 session call 086 1038892 or email zita@zitastanley.com.  Offices Limerick and Dublin.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If your psoriasis is triggered by stress, hypnosis is a natural relaxation technique that help in terms of stress and to improve your overall psoriasis by getting the skin production system in your body to slow down.  New ways of thinking about situations (and/or people) who previously caused you stress will improve your situation and this is easily done with hypnosis and NLP (neuro linguistic programming).  When you are relaxed in a hypnotic state you have a special open portal to your subconscious mind which is where all your responses are stored and we can reprogramme you to be more relaxed and comfortable, a better ability to deal with stress and improve your skin condition.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How many times in the last week have you lost your temper?  How many times have you taken your frustration out on someone who perhaps did not deserve it?  How did you feel afterwards?  If most of your time is spent worrying about how to manage the feelings you have inside, hypnosis and NLP (neuro linguistic programming) can help.  If you are at the end of your tether and dread going home to the chaos that children can bring, call me on 086 1038892.  We can work together to manage and organise your thoughts so that you do not have to bring your anger home.  Think of the stress on the parent at home who may be apprehensive about your homecoming and wondering what mood you are going to be in.  Regain control now and remember, you can help yourself with a little help from me.  Anger in itself is a valid emotion but the problem is how it is expelled.  With hypnosis you are learning to relax and you learn cues to &#8220;calm down&#8221; &#8211; it doesn&#8217;t mean you let people walk all over you &#8211; in fact, you become more assertive.  To be in control of your feelings, call me now on 086 1038892.</p>
<p>Appointments in Laois, Limerick and Dublin 2.</p>

<p>For sufferers of panic, how do these fit into your life?  Do you suffer from one trait or another or perhaps you suffer from all four.  As a hypnotherapist, my skill and experience is there to help you.  Once we or you can identify the driving trait then it is possible to make changes so that these traits no longer have to control you.  You actually can have a say in how you react to anxiety provoking situations.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fighting your symptoms of panic and anxiety actually increases the intensity of the feelings.  With hypnosis you can learn how to relax and little tricks to fool the body into believing it is in a relaxed state.  Tips include:</p>
<p>1. Learning to breathe deeply (from your stomach rather than shallow breathing).</p>
<p>2. Feel the feelings &#8211; &#8220;I know I am feeling symptoms of anxiety&#8221;.  Acknowledge them.  Now think &#8220;I am calm and relaxed, calm and relaxed&#8221;.  Like a surfer who lets the wave carry him so you are riding the wave of the symptoms &#8211; it will peak but then drop.  Positive thoughts like &#8220;calm and relaxed&#8221; are ideal to reduce and bring down your &#8220;wave&#8221; of anxiety.</p>
<p>3. Focus on what you want to feel, not on what you don&#8217;t want.  Take it symptom and think about the opposite &#8211; for example, clammy hands &#8211; &#8220;my hands are dry&#8221;, heart racing &#8211; &#8220;my heart is beating at a normal rhythm&#8221;.  You are instructing your subconscious mind on what you want.</p>
<p>Final thought:  Remember you have years of conditioning you into a panic state and to feel fear.  Be realistic in your expectations.  It takes practice.</p>
<p>For more help in a 1 to 1 situation:  Office &#8211; Wicklow Street, Dublin 2, Ireland. Tel: 086 1038892.  Or for a personalised MP3 which focuses on what you want, email <a href="mailto:zita@zitastanley.com">zita@zitastanley.com</a>.  Payments via PayPal.  Questionnaire via email.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Is Christmas stress starting to overwhelm you?  Do you feel more pressure and more rushed?  Shopping, presents, getting work done and all to a deadline of December 24th.  How can hypnosis help you?  Hypnosis can help you so that you can take 25-30 minutes to totally relax your mind and body.  Even those who found it hard to relax naturally (and I was one of them) are amazed at the difference they feel.  Unlike meditation where you clear your mind, with hypnosis, you are fully aware of what is going on but it&#8217;s like you are in a protective bubble &#8211; it just doesn&#8217;t bother you.  You can think about your jobs that need to be done and all the while your mind and body are just relaxing.  So if you want to treat yourself and train yourself to relax why not book in or order my relaxation CD.  The great feeling of relaxation and wellbeing stays with you longer than after, e.g., a massage.  All hypnosis is self hypnosis and everyone feels and experiences different feelings.  I am your guide to yourself.  The added benefit will be a sense of calm that stays with you even in stressful situations.  You can learn to &#8220;let things go&#8221; instead of having them eat away inside of you.</p>
<p>To relax and give yourself a treat for Christmas (and one that stays with you long after Christmas has gone), why not call me on 086 1038892.  Offices in Wicklow Street.  Or to order a CD/MP3 just email me at <a href="mailto:zita@zitastanley.com">zita@zitastanley.com</a>.</p>
