Hypnotherapy – Way To Get Rid Of Acrophobia

Forget Your Fear or Phobia: Fear of Heights Fear of heights is one of the most widespread of fears. In some situations a fear of heights is quite appropriate and a matter of common sense. According to psychologists, there are only two natural fears – fear of loud noises and fear of  heights.

However, a morbid fear of high places, which is the definition of acrophobia, can be very bad for you. If you found yourself in a “high” situation, it would be much better for you to have your wits about you.

Feeling an intense fear while inside a safe environment such as a skyscraper is not an appropriate response.

As with many fears, acrophobia often goes hand in hand with other phobias, a fear of flying in particular. As it is a fairly common

phobia, many sufferers choose to live with it rather than try to get help, accommodating their lifestyle to the limitations.

This can prove crippling to many aspects of life from holidays to accommodation, even limiting your possible career options.

The best methods for curing acrophobia involve gradual desensitisation, slowly exposing the sufferer to ever-greater heights while teaching them relaxation techniques that will enable them to maintain their presence of mind.

One of the methods that work best is audio, which is designed for the individual working to recover from fear of heights,  utilizing mindbody tools & techniques including thought & emotional management & specific imagery designed to decrease uncomfortable fear-based thought processes & to increase positive goals & outcomes.

In the state of deep relaxation the listener can observe the undesired behaviors as the writer/producer/director, studying the script, the scenes leading up to the undesired behavior, the involved emotional states, thought processes, etc.  Next,  the individual can enter the “production”, re-edit the script, change the early scenes, players, emotions, thoughts & of course, the outcomes.

The subconscious mind works backwards.  Once seeing the desired outcome, the subconscious mind will work to change the old behaviors.  Audio includes instructions for deep relaxation, stress management, mental biofeedback, & healthy goal setting.

This audio is “interactive” allowing the listener to program parts of the audio to meet personalized needs.
