What is Social anxiety?
Social anxiety or social phobia is an extremely common condition in which the sufferer is afraid of being put 'on the spot'. They fear humilation, or being made to look stupid, or embarrassing themselves, particularly in work-related, public or social situtations (hence social anxiety).

Social phobia consists of many varied symptoms, but the most common include blushing; stuttering; stammering; fear of presentations (glossophobia); fear of public speaking; nervousness; feeling shy; lacking in confidence; shy bladder (paruresis in men); sweating problems and much more.

Suprisingly, many people that SEEM confident in fact suffer from social anxiety when they feel out of control or in a situation where their performance is being judged. Hypnotherapy is very very helpful for treating social anxiety, and the symptoms associated with it.

If you recognize any of the above as something that you have found difficult in your life then read on:

All of the above are merely symptoms of “ Free floating anxiety.”

Social anxiety is a general term encompassing so many symptoms and circumstances that we would have reached ripe old age by the time we stopped listing them. What is important is the feeling that sufferers get. To ask a Glossophobic ( someone who has a fear of public speaking ) to present to an audience is akin to asking them to jump off a cliff. They feel that they are taking a step into infinity. A shy grown up can not hide behind their parent’s legs when they are introduced to strangers, they have to take that step into space.

Free floating anxiety has no shape or form and cannot be ascribed to any experience in your memory. That is because the memory has been put away, not forgotten about but as far as your conscious mind is concerned it didn’t happen. However, the emotions attached to the event are still buzzing around like an energy.This is free floating anxiety. SOCIAL ANXIETY is the outward result .

Analytical therapy ( Pure Hypnoanalysis )

Hypno-analysis, a very special type of hypnotherapy, is one of the best methods in the world for treating emotional, psychological or anxiety-related problems. IAPH hypnotherapists specialise in a 'pure' type of hypno-analysis which is not taught nor practiced anywhere else in the world. It is unique and a uniquely successful therapy which allows the client to resolve the very root cause of their problem, helping them to change their lives signifcantly in a short space of time.

Analytical therapy is used to discover the sensitizing event ( the cause ) of psychological problems. This is simply an emotional conflict from childhood. PURE HYPNOANALYSIS will allow a flow of memories, to guide you to a conflict that in childhood was simply locked away .

PURE HYPNOANALYSIS will allow the emotional content release. The emotion once released will take with it its many direct and indirect symptoms.

The conflict can then be viewed as an adult and placed in proper perspective, ensuring the anxiety, and the symptoms cannot return.
