Anger and anxiety are our natural self-defense responses to situations that we perceive as threatening or dangerous. Anger is the ‘fight’ option of the fight or flight response. As primitive people, we would have needed to fight in certain circumstances, for example to defend ourselves or our families. When we experience anger, our body produces adrenaline and other stress hormones, and our upper body (especially the arms) become flushed with blood to provide extra strength so we can fight. This is why people often go red in the face or neck when angry.
Anger may be experience as an explosive outburst of rage or a loss of temper, such as road rage. We can also experience anger in the lesser forms of irritation, annoyance, frustration, and lack of patience.
Hypnotherapy helps to calm down the stress response, thereby reducing the amount of anger you feel. We help to put you back into control by teaching you how to remain calm, relaxed, and confident, so that you can cope more effectively with day to day life.
