The hypnosis technique that I use enables you to detach or reduce an emotional response from a memory, event or stimulus.

One theory about why this can help is that the traumatic memory is re-processed by the prefrontal cortex (decision making part of the brain) enabling the emergency pattern to be released by the amygdala (the primitive part of the brain) and the memory to be reclassified as non-threatening. Thus, the pattern-match that was causing the anxiety and panic no longer occurs.

When you think about the thing you have a phobia about, you will feel tension and then you may feel sick in the stomach. This kind of phobic response is very common and can be thought of as a positive feedback loop.

The technique works by texturing that ‘thought’ of the phobia. It is textured with multiple layers of other thoughts that change the feel of the memory. The other thoughts transform it to the point that it will be impossible to have the old ‘phobic’ response.

The old thought simply will not result in the old feeling, the old feeling is simply not re-lived. It cannot be re-lived. It is GONE!
