Ending Needle and Injection Fear

by Dan Regan | Oct 9, 2015 | Phobias and Fears

One of the most common fears that I help people overcome is their fear of needles and injections. Whether it’s because you need a blood test, jabs or dental work, your injection fear can cause you intense anxiety and worry and even lead you to avoiding medical things altogether (even though you know that one day it’s almost inevitable that you will have to face the fear…).

And often it is because they can no longer avoid their needle fear that people come to see me. Maybe they do need some dental work that will involve having an injection, maybe they need some jabs so they can go on holiday or maybe they now need a blood test and the thought of visiting the nurse creates a sense of dread.

It may not be just actually having an injection that creates the fear, it could also be that other people talking about needles or seeing them on TV or in pictures is also enough to spark up that familiar feeling of fear.

Improve Football Performance with Hypnotherapy

by Dan Regan | Oct 8, 2015 | Sports Improvement

Could you use more confidence, self belief and motivation on the football field?

No matter how much time and effort you put into your physical and skills training, if your mind isn’t in the right place then you may not be playing as well as you know you can.

Maybe you dwell on mistakes and it erodes your self belief, you may lose focus and concentration during the game or maybe you just find that your performances fall short of what you know you can deliver. And, whatever your position, not performing to your potential can leave you feeling frustrated, unmotivated and lacking the self belief you need.

And the less confident you feel the more it impacts when you play. Whether it’s those negative things you say to youself before, during or after the match, or that feeling you can’t be the real player you want to be or perhaps it’s like a block that leaves you stuck feeling bad.

So how can you improve your football with hypnotherapy so you can consistently perform in the zone?

How To Abolish Driving Fear

by Dan Regan | Oct 7, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

In my last article I talked about driving fear and anxiety, how it arises and how it can impact on you whether you are a learner taking lessons, you are approaching your test or you have your licence yet still feel fearful when driving.

Recently I was invited to speak to the Cambridgeshire Association of Approved Driving Instructors (CAADI) at their October monthly meeting in Cambridge.

At the meeting I shared with them 5 ways to help anxious drivers to successfully abolish driving fear – and in this article I’ll be sharing them with you so you can start implementing them today.

Abolish Driving Anxiety

by Dan Regan | Oct 7, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

Does your driving fear and anxiety hold you back?

I help a lot of people who have driving fear to abolish their driving anxiety and become more confident and calm drivers – instead of dreading being behind the wheel they learn how to feel calm and in control (and even enjoy) the freedom of driving.

Your fear and anxiety may be around your driving lessons and driving test, or maybe you have a driving licence but there are certain roads you avoid like dual carriageways and motorways. It may be that faster roads make you feel uncomfortable or you over-worry about other road users.

I can still remember my driving test (now over 20 years ago!!) quite clearly. I can remember parts of my final lesson beforehand and then hanging around for the examiner at the test centre. I felt restless and hot, I couldn’t sit still and so paced around the room and I kept feeling like I needed the loo so back and forth I went. However, as soon as the examiner came and we got started it all calmed down and that energy helped me focus and be alert throughout.

Dealing with Dental Fear

by Dan Regan | Oct 5, 2015 | Phobias and Fears

Recently I’ve been helping a huge number of people to overcome their dental anxiety in Ely. Many of them have been referred to me by their dentist or hygenist to get help to overcome their intense fear and anxiety around having dental treatment.

As with all fears, I’ve encountered a wide spectrum of experiences from those who can manage check ups but dread having work done, to those who have avoided the dentist for decades. I’ve recently helped people who are in acute tooth pain and know they need dental treatment yet keep putting it off, and those who now face the prospect of losing teeth because they have avoided check ups for so long.

And if you currently struggle with fear of the dentist, you may worry about experiencing pain or having injections, or you may remember previous times when you’ve panicked and worry about it happening again. Or perhaps it’s a feeling of being out of control, a fear of all medical situations, the smell of the dentist surgery or – and this is commonly cited as an issue – the sound of the drill.

Stop Worry About Nothing

by Dan Regan | Sep 30, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

When you feel anxious or worried it’s easy to start worrying about absolutely everything. Often people with anxiety tell me it’s like their minds have to find something to worry about or they just can’t switch off their anxiety.

And anxious thoughts will always find a direction in which to flow.

Your mind is on high alert for anything to worry about so that you can take action to keep yourself safe. Except often there is no action to take and we lose perspective about what is and isn’t important and what, if anything, you may need to do about it.

And so like a meandering river those thoughts may spread and flow into many areas and many things. And the more that stream of worry flows, the stronger its progress.

Confidence Multiplied

by Dan Regan | Sep 26, 2015 | Confidence and Self Esteem

Do you live within your comfort zone, doing the same things day after day?

Obviously if you are happy where you are then that is fine! Yet many people feel stuck in the treadmill of their life, doing the same things over and over and getting nowhere even though they want to move forward.

We are all hard wired to want to learn and grow to feel fulfilled and more confident…so for most of us standing still isn’t much of a fulfilling option.

So to start stretching that comfort zone and feeling naturally more confident and motivated do this:
