What is stress?

Stress is the body's way of responding to a stimulus. The stimulus does not always have to be 'bad' in fact people can become stressed from too much of a good thing, for example too much sport or partying. Stress can be caused by a threat to survival, real or imagined, as in a dangerous situation, or in just trying to pay the bills. In some cases stress can result in a post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Stress can be caused by environmental triggers such as cold and heat, sunlight, pollution, noise; by poor or incorrect diet, drug use or lack of sleep. Stress can result from over work or challenging work situations and relationship conflicts. Life seems to offer an unending choice of stressors. The good thing is that we can change our response to at least some of the stressors.

What treatments are available for a stress relief?

There are a range of treatments for dealing with the effects of stress. These would include treatments for PTSD and health related issues. The medical profession may prescribe mood altering drugs, while naturopaths might give advice on nutrition and supplementation to help the body function better. In addition to resolving past stressful events emphasis is encouraged for preventative measures - hence the term stress management. Into this would fall a host of relaxation type activities, such as taking a holiday, a stay at a health resort, gentle physical exercise such as Tai Chi and Yoga; and meditation type exercises.

How can NLP, hypnotherapy and meditation help you manage stress?

As NLP works with the actual structure of the mind it reigns supreme in dealing with stress related issues. Negative emotions that are associated with past events can be released rapidly and gently such that when you check back to those memories afterwards you won't be able to find the negative emotions. In addition, with the aid of NLP, one is able to change the tonality, volume and tempo of the internal dialogue from something that creates internal stress to a thinking pattern that creates confidence and relaxation.

Hypnotherapy and meditation are both excellent for learning how to detach from the constant thinking that goes on in most people's minds. Daily meditation practice is enough for some people, but others need to utilise hypnosis tools to train the body to reach deeper states of relaxation.

Read what Colin has to say about using NLP and hypnotherapy to manage stress:

"I attended the NLP workshop because I wanted a method to control extreme stresses in my life. I learnt how to do this in one weekend. I was able to cleanse past experience that were distasteful to me and learn something positive from those occasions. What's more I learnt a way to achieve my ambitions and improve my life's values. Now I can relax my mind and body enough to meditate.

Abby's workshop has opened a whole new world for me - previously I felt that workshops such as this were of little or no benefit. I appreciate the doors that have opened for me." Colin Hannan Caloundra, Qld.
