Trouble falling asleep and staying asleep through the night can leave you feeling exhausted. Insomnia and other sleep disorders like sleep apnea cause restlessness and daytime fatigue.
If you feel like you’ve tried everything for a good night’s sleep to no avail, hypnosis may help where other methods fall short.
What Is Hypnosis and How Does It Work?
Hypnosis is a natural therapeutic technique that puts the body and mind into a deeply relaxed, focused state through guided relaxation, visualization, and suggestion.
In a sleep hypnosis session, a hypnotherapist uses relaxation techniques and verbal cues to quiet the mind and body. As you enter a state of heightened focus and suggestion, the hypnotherapist can then replace anxious thoughts with positive sleep cues.
Clinical hypnosis for sleep engages the subconscious to help change habits, thoughts, and behaviors around sleep. Instead of actively trying to fall asleep, you passively receive the hypnotist’s soothing words and imagery as your mind unwinds on its own.
