Hypnotherapy Is Great For IBS

Stress is known to be a major contributor to IBS, and hypnotherapy is very effective in helping this. I have already written two short articles on IBS called Hypnotherapy and IBS, and IBS: More Tips. I have found another view on hypnotherapy and IBS for you to read...

Hypnosis Treatment Of Irritable Bowel Syndrome

The standard medical methods used to treat IBS are of some help. However, up to half of IBS sufferers are dissatisfied with standard medical management, and many continue to have frequent symptoms. Research shows that cognitive therapy and hypnosis treatment have had the highest reported success rates in repeated formal research studies, with improvement seen in 80% or more of all treated patients in some studies.

Olafur S. Palsson, Psy.D., Research Associate, Department of Medicine, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill states that the standard medical methods currently used to treat irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are of some help to the majority of people with the disorder. However, up to half of IBS sufferers are dissatisfied with the results of standard medical management, and many continue to have frequent symptoms after seeing doctors about them.

In recent years, other alternatives have been sought to help these individuals. There has been growing interest in the possibility of using the mind to soothe the symptoms of IBS. Mental states clearly affect the way the gut behaves in people with IBS, and in fact, also in people who have no gastrointestinal problems.

Although IBS is probably not caused by stress directly, it is well established from research that psychological stress increases the symptoms of many people who have the disorder.

If the mind can have such a powerful negative influence on the intestinal tract, it would seem to make sense that the mind could be used to have a positive or calming influence on the intestines. Several psychological methods to treat IBS symptoms have been tested in formal research studies, including biofeedback, cognitive therapy, psychodynamic (insight-oriented) therapy, and hypnosis treatment. It is unclear, to date, which of these psychological treatment methods is most effective, for they have generally not been tested side by side.

However, cognitive therapy and hypnosis treatment have had the highest reported success rates in repeated formal research studies, with improvement seen in 80% or more of all treated patients in some studies.

Hypnosis for IBS

The results of the first formal research study on hypnosis treatment for IBS were published in the Lancet in 1984. The investigators, Dr. Peter Whorwell and his group in Manchester in England, reported remarkable success from a seven-session hypnosis treatment of 15 patients with severe IBS problems who had not responded to any other treatment. All 15 patients treated with seven sessions of hypnotherapy improved, with dramatic improvement seen in all the central symptoms of IBS.

The researchers furthermore showed that this therapeutic impact was not merely due to belief or expectancy of improvement, because a comparison group of 15 IBS patients who were instead treated with the same number of psychotherapy sessions and also received placebo pills (pills with no medication) showed only slight improvement.

This was a powerful demonstration of the impact hypnotherapy could have on IBS, and led to considerable subsequent interest in this approach to IBS treatment. Since this first report, more than a dozen other published research reports have confirmed that hypnosis treatment is effective in treating IBS.

Generally, the treatment procedures reported in the literature consists of 4 to 12 sessions (shorter treatment than 7 sessions may be a bit less effective). Hypnosis sessions are typically conducted weekly or once every other week, last 30-40 minutes and consist of induction of hypnosis followed by deep relaxation and the use of gut-directed imagery and suggestions. Patients are commonly given short CD or audiotape hypnosis home exercises to use during the course of treatment in addition to the sessions with the clinicians.

The experience to date may be outlined as follows:

Reported success rates range from approximately 70-95% in all studies with any significant number of patients [for example, in the work of the Manchester group in England and our studies.

The improvement enjoyed from this treatment often lasts at least two years after the end of treatment .

All major IBS symptoms improve from this kind of treatment (abdominal pain, diarrhea/constipation, and bloating).

There are some indications that individuals with certain characteristics are somewhat less likely to benefit from this kind of treatment: People with very little hypnotizability (perhaps 15% of all people), persons with psychiatric disorders, and maybe (according to one report) males with diarrhea-predominant type of IBS.

This treatment can be effective also when people are treated in groups.

In addition to effects on physical symptoms, the treatment commonly improves psychological well being and life functioning substantially and can have long-term positive effects in reducing disability and health care costs and improving the quality of life of IBS patients.

Water Meditation

Many of us do not get out enough. We spend all day at work and then return home in the evening. No wonder there is so much pent up energy, anger and irritation about!

We are designed to have the freedom of the earth. This is very difficult in these modern times. We have increasing demands on our time, and increasing restrictions on the space around us.

I believe that we need to smell flowers, feel the breeze, listen to flowing water, and see nature at work. Our mental well being depends upon it.

Although this is no substitute, listening to this water meditation can help. We can listen to and look at the flowing water. This will help enable the brain to believe that it is outside in nature, and can trigger some of the same responses as if we actually are in the great outdoors. This should have the effect of de stressing and energising.

Try it and let me know what you think. Simply click on the picture bellow, sit or lie back, relax and enjoy.

Improve Your Memory For Success

Many of us consider ourselves to have a poor memory. However this is not really true. We all have fantastic memories - far more than the most powerful computer. It's just that most of us do not know how to use it to get the most out of it. Here are a few simple tips to help improve your memory.

You must believe that you have a good memory, and have faith in it. If you believe you have a poor memory and you cannot remember anything, your mind will prove you right. When you learn better memory techniques, you will have a better memory. A person with a “better memory” is knowingly or automatically using better memory techniques.

We remember things that stand out. If a pink elephant walked past you in the supermarket, then it is highly likely that you will remember this for years to come. You probably would not remember a dog walking past you in the street an hour after it happens.

We remember things that we pay attention to. A lot of forgetting is down to people not paying attention. If someone asks you to remember to do something, briefly imagine yourself doing it. Think about when and where you will do this. The more details you attach to this, the more likely you are to remember it.

A relaxed mind helps memory. When you are trying to remember something, stay relaxed. Also keep a relaxed mind when trying to recall anything. If you are struggling to recall something, do not get frustrated. Instead forget about it for a while. Often your unconscious mind carries on looking for this information without you realizing it. The memory often pops into your head when you least expect it.

Reduce anxiety. Mild anxiety can increase interest and attention. However high anxiety can impair our attention and concentration, and may inhibit our ability to recall. That is why people sometimes ‘blank’ when sitting an exam. In this situation hypnosis and meditation can greatly help. Try listening to this free ego boost session and the free relaxation session.

Use the techniques we have just discussed to remember these principals. Read them a few times. Make sense of them. How can you use them? What situation might they help. Can you think of times when you have done the complete opposite for example got frustrated and not been able to remember anything?

Just remember (if you can!) to pay some attention to your memory. With just a little bit of effort and faith you can have a far greater memory. This can lead to greater confidence and greater success.

New Articles

Hello everyone! We have a few more updates on our site. We have posted three new articles, two of which are by guest contributors. It is good to get a wider spectrum of ideas sometimes.

There is an article that details a quit smoking self hypnosis session for you to do yourself. There is a different recorded session, but some of you may wish to give it a go for yourselves, or do both to strengthen the therapy.

The next article gives details of a once a year detox. It discuses 'toxic overload', and shows how it can cause fatigue, illness, constipation, gas, skin problems, nausea, PMS, depression, and poor circulation.

Finally there is an article from your truly, giving details of some simple yoga movements.

We are hoping to eventually build a massive collection of self help articles to help people with a wide selection of things. If anyone has any ideas for future articles, then feel free to email me.

Well that's it for now. I'm going to rest my broken foot and visualise it healing!

Quit Smoking Session

At long last I am pleased to announce that the much anticipated smoking hypnosis session is on the site!! Click here to access the free hypnosis smoking treatment.

In order to effectively give up smoking you should first ensure that you are ready to do so. You could have other problems in your life that prevent you from having the strength to give up. There is a questionnaire that asks you lots of things about your habit. This should help put things into perspective. I would recommend that people first listen to the ego boost audio session in order to help strengthen yourself emotionally. Do not listen to the smoking session until you are sure you are ready to quit. You must be prepared in your mind to be a non smoker once you have listened to the session - it must start here.

You can listen to this session as often as you like - it is a good idea to listen to it daily at first. You could alternate it with the generic addictions session if you liked.

Try to regularly appreciate all the good things that will happen to you because you are a now a non smoker. Your health will improve in many ways over time (click here for more details), and you will be better off financially. Here is an article that details all the health benefits of quitting smoking.

Anyway give it your best shot. If you ever fall off the wagon, then consider it a temporary thing and get right back on track. It's not always easy, but it can be done.

Hello folks. I posted a new article called "Improve Your Vision Naturally", and it seems to be an instant success! We have already had many page views and positive comments about it. Here is a small extract of it. Click here to view the whole article.

It seems that very little is done to help people prevent their eyes from deteriorating. Excuse my cynicism, but the opticians do absolutely nothing to help this. They merely keep testing peoples sight until they have deteriorated to a point where they deem they need glasses or contacts. Then your eyes start becoming lazy and more dependant on the vision aids. They deteriorate further and the opticians can sell you a stronger pair of grossly overpriced glasses or contacts. Great business eh?

What they do not tell you or help you with is the prevention of eye sight deterioration and even the improvement of it in natural ways. Why would they - that would do them out of sales!

Fear not though people – FreeHypnosisTreatment.com will show you how to get the best of your eyes, and beat the optician.

The three common faults of vision are not using the peripheral vision, staring without focussing, and not moving the eyes enough. All this occurs whilst watching TV or being on the computer. TV viewing should be restricted to an hour a day, especially for children. You should be at least 3 meters away from the screen, preferably further. It is helpful to sit with good posture as this will help the blood flow around your body and to your eyes.

If you work on computers all day then it is going to be more difficult for you to limit your viewing. Instead you can look away from the computer about every half an hour.

Look at something about 6 meters away for about 10 seconds. Really focus on it. Let the eyes do some work. This will help strengthen the muscles.
Then look at something about 3 meters away for about 10 seconds, and again really focus on it.

Repeat this with a few different objects at different distances every half an hour. If you manage to keep this up, you will massively reduce the deterioration of your eyes through watching the computer screen. You can also do these exercises if you insist on watching loads of TV.

Whilst we are on the subject of work, did you that wearing a suit can cause eyesight deterioration? Tight fitting collars on a shirt can restrict the blood flow to the eyes, causing them to deteriorate through lack of nutrients.

On the subject of nutrients (this is all linking rather nicely), a good diet can also help. You know my usual preach by now – plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables. There are plenty of articles on this site that can help you with this.

As with most things about the human body – use it or lose it. The same is for the eyes. When they are staring into space or a 2D screen, they are not doing much work. If this is the case then, just like most of us do not naturally do enough work with our bodies, we must exercises them to keep them healthy. Here are some eye exercise suggestions...

Click here to view the eye exercises.

Well I hope this article will be an inspiration to you. You do not always need to settle for what people tell you to settle for. There may be many people missing out on enjoying life with good natural eyesight simply because they are misinformed. Don't be one of them!

Get Beautiful Skin With Hypnosis

Hypnosis is great for dealing with skin complaints. The skin is linked to the central nervous system. It's quality is a direct reflection of how healthy we are.

When we feel embarrassed we blush instantly. A heavy night on the town and we have all sorts of problems the next day - puffy eyes, spots, rashes - the better the night the worse the skin!!!

Stress can greatly drain the skin of it's healthy glow. A person who is stressed does not have that healthy glow that most of us wish to have. Hypnosis is great for removing stress, and therefore great for the skin. Almost immediately when a person is in a nice relaxing trance, you see their lines disappear as the tension disappears from the muscles in their face.

When used regularly, hypnosis can also improve the glow of the skin, reduce spots, psoriasis, dry skin, greasy skin, rashes etc.

It really is down to you. If you want to look healthier then you have to be healthier. You can have the skin you deserve - it's up to you.

How To Lose Weight With Hypnosis

Unfortunately you cannot actually lose weight with hypnosis. You may see adverts for certain products promising miraculous weight loss. However as with everything , hypnotherapy follows the laws of the universe. This means that with or without hypnosis, you cannot lose weight unless you burn off more calories than you eat. This also implies that you cannot put weight on without eating more calories than you burn off. Think about this...it has to be true.

This way of thinking will greatly help you in your mission to lose weight. It will help you become more honest with yourself.

How can hypnotherapy help then?

Well it can help us change our habits. Our habits are driven by or unconscious minds. Hypnosis can tap into this and help persuade your unconscious self to eat less, exercise more...almost anything (as long as you are in agreement to it).

It can also help deal with problems surrounding weight gain. A person may for instance had a bad relationship in the past and be unconsciously putting weight on to avoid attracting further 'bad' relationships.

So really it is down to you, but hypnotherapy can give you that edge that can make the difference between success and failure.

More About My Site

I am a fully qualified clinical hypnotherapist and I run a free hypnosis and meditation site called Free Hypnosis Treatment

The site is a free service that offers free hypnosis and guided meditation mp3s and articles. We aim to massively expand the site over time to give people the choice of receiving hypnosis and meditation treatment for free. We already have 6 hypnosis audio's and 5 guided meditation audio's. They are of a very good standard and would cost a fortune anywhere else. Look around the web and you will know what I mean. There are loads of sites which claim to offer free hypnosis recordings, but they usually only have one, part of one, or none at all!

I truly believe in these forms of therapy, and am keen to show anyone willing to explore them what a safe and effective branch of therapy they are.

I thought I would share with you some thoughts I have on my site...

We have done a fair amount of development of late! There has been loads of articles posted, some I have written myself, and some by respected guest contributors. We have also added loads of guided meditation audio's that are proving popular, especially with videos. Our latest meditation is entitled "Patience In Others". It aims to help us be more patient towards others and let go of some control we feel we should have. This will have the effect of making both parties feel happier with each other.

We are also currently looking at new designs for the site. More colour and more pictures should help. A friendly logo is also in the pipeline - so any suggestions will be gratefully received!

Lately we have neglected the development of the hypnosis audio sessions. This was down to shifting our focus onto other areas we have just mentioned, and also funding. We have some exciting new ideas in the pipeline, but are just waiting to get the necessary funding from our sponsors. You can help by telling as many people as possible about the site, donating to us, or purchasing something from one of our affiliates.
