Hypnosis-Help For The Citigroup Layoffs-Wall Street Journal

The news that rocked the markets today was about the layoff of 50,000 workers from the Citigroup Corporation. That's a whole lot of people getting laid off right before Christmas. In order to get people back on their feet after such a stunning blow, Marc Carlin, "The NYC Hypnotist" is offering hypnosis seminars geared for those effected by the economic turmoil.

As reported in the Wall Street Journal just last week, hypnosis is an effective way of helping people deal with the additional stress of this economy.

Here's how it works.

While in a trance state, we humans become more open to suggestion. We can eliminate uncomfortable responses to situations. We can view things in a new and more rewarding perspective. When we are able to either eliminate or manage stress we can take back control. Hypnosis is the perfect way of learning how to manage stress.

Why Do We Experience Stress?

Stress is a response to danger. Also known as the flight or flight response. Muscles tense up or digestion and breathing changes. When we continue to experience stress dangerous levels of hormones are secreted into our system to deal with the different levels of perceived threat. So being exposed to these high levels of stress does nothing when the perceived danger is not real. Short term there is no life or death danger. But the body's response is as if there is.

The level of stress can also cause us to freeze. Mentally, physically, and emotionally freeze. This can be dangerous as it's at this very time that it's important that we take action. Make plans, change careers, look for work, make good choices. So this increased stress once designed to protect us is now hurting us due to the changes in our society.

How Can Hypnosis Help?

Hypnosis is a trance state where we can learn to have a more favorable response. We can reprogram our automatic behaviors to more effectively deal with these stress situations.

You can experience this hypnosis in a seminar that is specifically geared for those victims of the economic downturn. To find out more about these seminars you can go to economic stress hypnosis. There you will be updated to all the events as they are announced.
