Will this rock your world as much as it rocked mine?
https://ift.tt/zlW3peHI’m currently reading ‘Go Wild’ by the wonderful Dr. John Ratey: world leading neuroscientist and one of the academics whose work underpins my hypnotherapy practice.
A short section has truly rocked my thinking. He makes reference to a massive study called ‘The Global Burden of Disease’. It looks at the causes of debilitation and loss of quality of life at a global level – it covered 291 diseases in 187 countries around the world with results published in The Lancet.
The bit that has rocked my thinking is this: the extent to which each of us can take action in our own lives to avoid or alleviate most of the top twelve risk factors for debilitation worldwide – and how hypnotherapy can help. These factors are, in order:
· High blood pressure: regular hypnosis / self-hypnosis / deep relaxation can help reduce blood pressure in itself. Further, hypnotherapy routinely helps with smoking cessation, reducing alcohol consumption, reducing obesity and adopting healthy lifestyles: all of contribute to achieving a healthier blood pressure.
· Smoking: for those who have decided to become non-smokers, hypnotherapy is highly effective in supporting this positive step: often the most significant, single step, in improving life quality.
· Alcohol consumption: This normally takes a bit of unpacking with each individual: there is often a general correlation between working on becoming your best self and reductions in alcohol consumption.
· Household air pollution: even the most ardent advocate for hypnosis would struggle to find a link here. I suspect, because this was a global study, it is driven by the populations who have solid fuel fires within their dwelling – not really an issue for Europeans / Americans.
· Low fruit consumption: a relatively easy issue to resolve for most – implementing beneficial behavioural changes, which then become habits, is basic work for any hypnotherapist.
· Obesity: if only losing weight was a simple matter of calories in / calories out: eat less, move more – job done. That obesity is so prevalent demonstrates just how ineffective the ‘eat less / move more’ approach is. Hypnotherapy and wellbeing psychology take a broader approach: rather than focusing on losing weight, the focus is on living your chosen lifestyle and achieving your chosen physique.
· High blood sugar: there are similarities here with obesity. Achieving healthy blood sugar levels is a consequence of a healthy lifestyle with a focus on overall wellbeing.
· Ambient particulate matter: as with indoor air pollution, this is out of scope for hypnotherapy.
· Inactivity: the correlation between activity and wellbeing are so well established that there can really be no credible debate. Hypnotherapy and self-hypnosis are ideal in supporting making beneficial behavioural changes which, in turn, can shift people from being in a vicious cycle to a virtuous one of long-term, sustainable, personal development.
· High salt intake: one of the easier choices to make which coincides with the broader goal of living with increased wellbeing.
· Low seed and nut consumption: another straightforward behavioural change which can be supported by a range of hypnotherapy / self-hypnosis processes.
