			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2 style="text-align: left;">Hypnosis cures for eczema, psoriasis, and other skin conditions</h2>
<p>It&#8217;s fairly well accepted in medicine that skin conditions often have a strong psychosomatic component &#8211; in other words, they are often largely caused or exacerbated by psychological processes.  Eczema and other skin allergies, for example, are the result of an over-reaction of the immune system where the immune system wrongly identifies a harmless stimulus as a threat. This mistaken identification is essentially a psychological process or learned behaviour, which can be corrected by resetting unconscious thought-patterns.  In fact, it has been said that almost anything you can treat with cortisone or antihistamine can be treated with hypnosis.</p>
<h4>Hypnotherapy procedure for skin conditions</h4>
<p>A therapist can use regression techniques or ideomotor responses to discover the cause of the problem. One way is to look at these seven factors:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Conflict:</strong> Is the problem in some way related to a conflict you have or a difficulty reaching a decision on something?</li>
<li><strong>Motivation:</strong> What does it mean to you when this condition flares up? Is this condition in some way a chance for you to get some benefits that you would not otherwise get?</li>
<li><strong>Identification:</strong> Is there someone close to you, now or in the past, who suffered with a similar condition?</li>
<li><strong>Self-punishment:</strong> Do you feel that this condition is in some way payment for something you&#8217;ve done?</li>
<li><strong>Suggestion:</strong> Is this condition a learned behaviour, or did it begin with some particularly powerful or traumatic event?</li>
<li><strong>Organ language:</strong> Is the condition a physical representation of an underlying situation that can be expressed as a figure of speach, for example &#8216;she&#8217;s a real backstabber&#8217;.</li>
<li><strong>Past experiences:</strong> Is there an upsetting past experience connected to the condition?</li>
</ol>
<p>People suffering from chronic skin conditions should take heart with the knowledge that their problems are typically very responsive to hypnotherapy. I recommend working directly with a therapist, at least for one or two sessions, to uncover and release any underlying psychological issues causing the condition. Then you can follow up with self-hypnosis recordings to reinforce the learnings.</p>

<p>If you can&#8217;t get to a therapist, try the self-hypnosis recordings on their own &#8211; sometimes this will be all you&#8217;ll need.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Research has shown that hypnosis for fertility can double the success of IVF treatment. But how does it do this? Well, essentially there are two main objectives for hypnosis in IVF:</p>
<ul>
<li> relaxation and preparation of the body for fertilization</li>
<li> identification and removal of fears and unconscious objections to pregnancy</li>
</ul>
<p>Let’s look at these more closely.</p>
<h4>Preparing the body for fertilization</h4>
<p>One reason for IVF failing is that the womb is in a contracted state during the crucial embryo transfer stage. Hypnosis can be applied with specific suggestions to relax the body and allow the fertilization process to proceed.</p>
<p>Relaxation will also help the body become chemically more receptive to fertilization. Remember that our thoughts directly affect the levels of hormones in our bodies, and high levels of stress don’t only diminish sex drive – they diminish reproductive capacity as well. The body needs to feel that everything is OK before it opens up to the possibility of pregnancy, so stress needs to be dealt with.</p>
<p>Another factor is simple performance anxiety. It’s like when you can’t sleep and the harder you try the more awake you become. Couples trying to fall pregnant can often end up putting so much pressure on themselves they end up closing down a process that should be effortless. When your lover becomes just a ‘sperm donor’, that’s a sign that you need a bit of a holiday! Hypnosis can help restore your inner sense of being OK with yourself no matter what happens, so you can safely take the pressure off and restore some of the softness and light-heartedness to the relationship. And remember, babies like softness and light-heartedness too!</p>
<h4>Resolution of unconscious objections</h4>
<p>Without knowing it, you may be holding some deep fears about the consequences of pregnancy. This is where you will benefit from working directly with a therapist who can help you uncover any of these unconscious patterns. But you can begin your own process of discovery simply by going within and asking yourself questions like these:</p>
<ul>
<li> Is there someone you know or who are close to, now or in the past, who had a bad time with pregnancy or with bringing  up a child?</li>
<li>What benefits are there to not having a child (or another child)?</li>
<li>Will you lose something important to you if you have a child?</li>
<li>What phase of life will fall away when you have a child?</li>
<li>How do you <em>really </em>feel about your partner?</li>
<li>If there is any part of you that objects to this pregnancy, who is it?</li>
<li>What scary thing that might happen if you do fall pregnant?</li>
</ul>
<p>Some of those questions are a little challenging and they might not apply to you, but if any of them grab your attention, just sit with them for a while and see what comes up. You might get a valuable insight.</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 127px"><a href="http://www.hypnosisdownloads.com/downloads/health/infertility.html#3442"><img class="  " title="Hypnosis for Fertility MP3 download" src="http://inspiredcoaching.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/Download1.jpg" alt="" width="117" height="78" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Hypnosis for Fertility MP3</p></div>
<p>It&#8217;s a good idea to work with a therapist in person, especially if you think there might be some unconscious objections at work. But if you just want to restore a sense of hope and possibility, and you want to guide your body and mind into a receptive state for pregnancy, you might benefit from listening to a self-hypnosis recording. The power of belief can really work miracles. Have a look at this <a href="http://www.hypnosisdownloads.com/downloads/health/infertility.html#3442" target="_blank">Hypnosis for Infertility</a> session and see if it appeals to you.</p>
