Sleep - Night Worry

Do you go to bed at night and immediately start worrying about stuff?

Are you getting worn down with lack of sleep and anxiety?

You know how it is. You get into bed. You turn the lights off. No more TV or radio. No more computer/tablet/smartphone. You shut your eyes. And boom! All your worries, big, small and imaginary, arrive in a flock and take up residence in your head, so that you can't sleep a wink because of their cackling and cawing.

Night worry feels useful but isn't

The first trouble with worry is that it feels useful. When you worry, it feels as if you're doing something about the 'problem'. But 99 times out of 100 you're not. You're just going round and round and round the same anxious thought without getting anywhere.

Worrying can become habitual

The second trouble with worry is that it quickly becomes a habit. You start to feel worried if you're not worried. As if you should be worrying about things. You can even find yourself looking for things to worry about, to feed your habit. (I'm not joking.)

But having fallen into this pattern (perhaps at a time when you really did have a lot to worry about), are you doomed to long hours of wakeful rumination every night for ever?

Fortunately not!

Hypnosis can help you retrain your mind and body to relax at night

Night time worry is an audio hypnosis session created by psychologists that will take the emotional charge out of those worrying thoughts so that you can put them aside and get off to sleep.
