By breaking the cycle of overthinking, self-doubt, and avoidance, fear hypnosis restores clarity, confidence, and calmness. It allows you to unlearn patterns that keep you stuck, empowering you to respond to challenges with courage and resilience. Through this transformative process, you regain control over your mind and emotions, breaking free from the grip of fear and unlocking your true potential. This therapeutic approach not only alleviates specific phobias but also enhances overall emotional resilience and well-being. Dr Chandni Tugnait, MD (A.M) Psychotherapist, Coach & Healer, Founder & Director, Gateway of Healing shares her insights.
Do you experience sweating, a rapid heartbeat, or tense muscles? Fear often manifests physically, showing up as symptoms like an increased heart rate, clammy hands, or persistent tension. These are your body’s responses to perceived threats, even when no real danger is present.
Is your mind filled with worst-case scenarios or self-criticism? Fear thrives on negativity, fuelling spirals of self-criticism and catastrophic thinking. It can make you believe everything is doomed before it even begins, leaving you stuck in a cycle of defeat.
Do minor inconveniences or challenges feel overwhelming? Fear can heighten your emotional sensitivity, causing exaggerated reactions to everyday situations. A small mistake or an unexpected change may feel catastrophic, draining your energy and making future challenges seem more daunting.
Do you avoid challenges or situations because of “what if” thoughts? Fear convinces you to retreat from risks, no matter how small. Whether it’s skipping a meeting or avoiding a new opportunity, this behaviour reinforces fear’s grip and keeps you in your comfort zone, away from growth.
Are you constantly questioning your worth or abilities? Fear often plants seeds of doubt, leading you to second-guess yourself. Even when there’s evidence of your capabilities, you may feel unworthy or incapable. This self-doubt stifles your growth and holds you back from embracing new opportunities.
Do small decisions feel monumental? Fear magnifies doubts, making even minor choices feel like they carry life-altering consequences. This overthinking traps you in a loop of “what ifs,” keeping you stuck and unable to move forward.
Do you often feel frozen or paralyzed by anxiety? Fear can feel like quicksand, trapping you in a cycle of inaction. Tasks that were once manageable now seem impossible. It clouds your mind, turning simple tasks into insurmountable challenges. This mental paralysis can prevent you from thinking clearly or taking decisive action.
