Impact of Anger
Unlike anxiety, which is an internal emotion, ANGER is an external active emotion that can have significant impact on our lives. It can impacts our work life, our private life and our social life. The effects of anger is visible for all to see. It can have long term destructive, and often irreversible consequence on our careers, our relationship and on us too. Anger, and its suppression, can have a lasting effect on our health. Effects such as high blood pressure, loss of sleep, headaches, risk of strokes, increased heart rate! Therefore anger management is a critical element of wellbeing. Hypnotherapy can support wellbeing by helping manage anger.
How Hypnotherapy defines Anger?
Anger is a primitive way of raising our energy in order to defend ourselves from perceived threats in our lives. It is a primitive response which was useful when we were cave people and needed to keep ourselves safe from sabre-toothed lions and unfriendly tribesmen. However it is not appropriate in many cases in these modern times. When anger is disproportionate and has negative consequences on our lives, then it is time to reach out for help.
The GOOD news is that the causes of anger and how to manage it are well understood. Hypnotherapy will help you understand the intention behind anger (to keep you safe). It will also help you realise the cause is our thinking around life’s events. Once you understand that it’s your thoughts then you can regain CONTROL.

How can Hypnotherapy Help manage Anger?
Hypnotherapy addresses negative thoughts and helps with anger by:
Emptying your stress bucket
Helping you empty your stress bucket. The stress buck is a way of describing our capacity to deal with the demands of our lives. When the stress bucket is full, we feel overwhelmed and so react in one of three ways anxiety, anger or depression. I’m sure that you may have had the experience of being overwhelmed and somebody makes a simple request of you and you snap at them. That is a sign of your stress bucket being full and a corresponding angry response.
Raising your serotonin levels
Helping you raise your serotonin levels, i.e. the neurotransmitter that is responsible for the feeling of wellbeing. Raised serotonin levels reduce negative thoughts. This is because when you feel happier you are more able to have a health perspective around any overwhelming situation. From that healthier perspective appropriate action can be taken to address it. Examples of actions are: ask for help, reduce your work load, realise that the external environment has a role to play too, i.e. it’s not just you!
Raising your self-esteem
Helping you to relax and have greater self-esteem. When you have greater self-esteem you are more able speak up for yourself and take control of any situation.
