It’s no secret that stress can often be the trigger for high blood pressure. There are other reasons why people can have high blood pressure, but stress is one that is entirely within your control.
If you can learn to relax your body, you’ll see your heart rate drop, along with your blood pressure. Hypnotherapy and NLP Coaching sessions will DEFINITELY enable you to do this by guiding you in shifting your mindset from one of constant worry to one of counting your blessings.
Stress can take a toll on your physical health, particularly on your cardiovascular system. High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is a common consequence of prolonged stress.
It makes perfect sense because when you’re stressed your body is in a state of “fight or flight,” which can lead to an increase in heart rate and the constriction of blood vessels, resulting in higher blood pressure. Over time, this can cause damage to your heart and arteries, increasing your risk of heart disease, stroke, and other serious health issues.
The good news is that hypnotherapy and NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) coaching offer effective tools to combat stress and lower blood pressure. These methods work by addressing the root causes of stress and helping you develop healthier coping mechanisms.
Although all hypnotherapists may do things differently, the first part of every one of my sessions involves the use of NLP Coaching techniques to surface and release any emotions and thoughts that impact your joy in the moment. Whatever obstacles exist beneath the surface to your happiness or goal attainment will be rooted out.
Every session concludes with a deep, guided hypnotherapy segment. In this relaxed and focused state, your mind becomes more receptive to the positive suggestions that you want embedded in your subconscious mind. These enable you to change unwanted behaviors and thoughts, resulting in a shift in how you view your circumstances.
What had previously been worrying you and causing your blood pressure to rise, may seem insignificant after the session because you feel more in control of your life. This change to a positive and relaxed outlook can be continually reinforced because the session is recorded, providing clients with an MP3 file to listen to at home. Reinforcing the positive suggestions with repetition enhances their benefits.
By focusing on what is right in your life, rather than what could go wrong, you can achieve a profound sense of peace and contentment. This shift in perspective can have a direct impact on your physical health. When your mind is calm and relaxed, your body follows suit. Your heart rate slows down, and your blood vessels dilate, leading to lower blood pressure. This state of relaxation not only benefits your cardiovascular system but also boosts your overall well-being.
Imagine starting your day with a sense of calm and gratitude, rather than anxiety and worry.
