We can all experience trouble sleeping from time to time but insomnia becomes a problem when we experience prolonged periods of sleep deprivation. We start to find it hard to fall asleep at night, we may start to use medication or alcohol to get to sleep. We may wake up in the night and struggle to get back to sleep and this can lead to feeling of anxiety about going to bed or trying to sleep. This then can lead to us experiencing extreme tiredness during the day and maybe even becoming irritable or find it hard to concentrate.

 

One of the first things you will notice after beginning a course of hypnotherapy is that sleep patterns become more settled. Hypnosis helps the body and mind to relax enough to get to sleep more easily, soothing and calming our central nervous system and helps us to stay asleep through the night. Hypnosis also helps to deepen sleep increasing the amount of time that you spend in delta wave deep sleep by as much as 80%.
