I have a fear of animals. Will hypnotizing help? Has anyone gotten hypnotize before?

Answer 1

YOU HAVE A PHOBIA AND TREATMENT FOR IT BY A TRAINED THERAPIST WILL HELP GREATLY. THIS MAY OR MAY NOT INVOLVE HYPNOSIS.

Answer 2

Only like 25% of people can successfully be hypnotized. I would recommend a good therapist that specializes in phobias.

Answer 3

kinyania - are you afraid of all animals or just certain animals?

Hypnotism can certainly help you overcome your fears. I have been hypnotized before and even learned to hypnotize myself. Being hypnotized means that you are very relaxed and in that physical state between being awake and being asleep, a state where you are very susceptible to suggestion (either from a hypnotist or from yourself). In this state of mind you can easily change your thoughts and beliefs.

You can go to a hypnotist, read a book and learn how to hypnotize yourself or just buy a hypnosis tape made specifically to help you get over your fear of animals.

You can use hypnosis to help with your fear (phobia) of animals, but to me, an easier and faster way to overcome your fear would be by using EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) or Emotional Tapping. In EFT you apply gentle acupressure tapping to specific body points to release blocked emotions. EFT is easy to learn (you can learn the basics in 15-30 minutes). You can use EFT anytime, anywhere for any emotional or physical issue. One basic round of EFT takes about one minute to complete. EFT works quickly and painlessly.

Please download the FREE EFT Instructional manual from the EFT website (www.emofree.com). Also, please watch the FREE Introductory video. Finally, look on the EFT website under the "Fears/Phobias" section under the "What is EFT" button. There is also an archive of testimonials by people who have used EFT...check out the testimonials for fears/phobias.

I learned EFT last year and now use it everyday for everything. I used EFT to overcome my fear of spiders. In one 20 minute EFT session I totally lost my fear of spiders. I still don't like spiders but I am no longer TERRIFIED of them. EFT really works.
Good luck.
