What does HypnoKidz do?

"It's not what we leave to our children that matters, it's what we leave within their minds"

Joane Goulding

 

Much that goes on in our world can cause problems for children, just as it does for adults. Rapid physical growth over short periods of time and concerns about changes in their bodies can cause stress and loss of self-esteem. Various problems in school, with studies, teachers or peers, may be troubling a child. There are many fears that can plague children: fear of the potential danger in our schools today, fear of the dark, fear of going to sleep, fear of doctors, dentists and needles etc. Many children experience the embarrassment of habits they find hard to break, like bed-wetting or thumb sucking. A new baby or other addition to the family can cause undue stress. Loss of their own bedroom space due to a new addition to the family, or having to move to a smaller place can make children unhappy. An underlying fear of kidnapping and other abuses may affect our children far more than we realize. It's difficult to keep such news away from a child's hearing, these days.

 

With children, the world revolves around them until experience helps expand that world. As they are the “centre,” then everything is where they are. If there are problems in the family, they take those on as their own. If parents are having trouble in relating to each other, their children can become fearful and guilty, as if they were the cause or should have prevented it in some way.

HypnoKidz utilises hypnotherapy as a powerful resource that works well with children as they have the drive to discover and the hunger for new experiences. They're open to new learnings, willing to receive and respond to new ideas, as long as they are presented in an understandable way. Children are usually easily relaxed and focused and have the ability to be versatile and change. Interestingly, before the age of twelve, children accept most ideas uncritically. Unlike adults, children aren't as dominated by rational questioning and concerns that adults have formed through life experiences.

 

Hypnotherapy for children can be used for the following issues or concerns:

 

*Bullying and self esteem

*Improved learning-reading, writing, memory, homework, grades etc

*Thumb sucking

*Bed wetting

*Nightmares and fear of the dark

*Stealing and anti-social behaviour

*Dealing with divorce

*Dealing with illness or death

*Peer pressure and friendships
