Phobias

We all have fears, they are there, to protect us. Like the fear of falling it is a natural fear.

It is those irrational fears or phobias that keep us from doing,what we really want to do that are a problem.

Fears protect us, Phobias hinder us or restrict our quality of life.

Most fears we acquire over time, some we inherited others develop through various incidents.

Sometimes our fears are passed on from our parents to us as children, and we get them without really knowing why we have them.

Other fears are developed through a traumatic experience,

either as children or later in life.

It has a lot to do with how we store our mental pictures and how events, happenings and things are perceived in our mind. We all store things differently, based on our experiences, likes and dislikes. None of those perceptions need to be based on facts or logical reasons.

You know, that animals can sense when you are afraid and often take advantage of that.

We had a bird in our main office that used make a game,out of chasing the warehouse manager around and bite his ankles.

The bird didn't chase anyone else, my point was that he was afraid of the bird and the bird knew it.

Actually the warehouse manager came in handy at the end of the day, when we had to get the bird down from the tall fence.

We used the manager as bait andwhen the bird would come down to chase him, some one would grab the bird and put him in the cage.

I didn't know hypnotherapy back then, or I could have helped him get over his fear and make friends with the bird.

KC as we called him was actually a lovable little guy if, you overlooked the damage he would do to telephones and office furniture.

One lady I met at one of the training courses I went to a few years back, was deathly afraid of cats, a fear I am sure few of us can relate to.

The cats I see out side usually are more afraid of us and run away.

I don't remember how she acquired the fear, but that is not important, what was important was that the trainer, ran a few patterns with her and within about 10 to 15 minutes her fear was gone.

Pretty amazing if you ask me, like a little mini miracle,and not only did she get over her fear, the trainer had provided the thought,the cat might even be, a little tasty.

Who knows if she running around eating cats, I doubt it, but her fear is gone.The great thing is that you can remove a life long fear that quickly. Phobias can often be removed with hypnosis as quickly as they were obtained. Are you ready to loose your phobia?
