| What is a 'fear'?
A fear is what we feel when we are in the presence of a real danger. It’s the feeling associated with our body when preparing itself to either fight the source of the danger, or escape from it.
What is a phobia?
A phobia is a similar, often extremely intense feeling of fear, which is caused this time by a situation or object which doesn't actually pose any real threat to our safety. Common with many phobias, is the feeling of loss of control in the given situation, this brings stress and anxiety, and often full scale panic.
Often, if the affected person avoids the situation or object which brings on these feelings, this only serves to re-enforce the link between the object or situation, and the fear.
Hypnosis is the perfect tool for overcoming fears and phobias. In this category you'll find a selection of our self hypnosis CDs which have been designed to help with overcoming certain fears and phobias.
