TEST ANXIETY AND HYPNOTHERAPY Whether you are a high school or college student or professional career person taking continuing education or taking an exam to enter into a new career, test anxiety affects a large portion of the population. Do your hands sweat? Do you forget the information that you know you studied? Does your heart race? Do you procrastinate scheduling the exam because of the anxiety associated with the test? Don’t feel alone…this is a very common issue. Some people even carry this over to the job interview phase also. The ability to focus and retain is a skill and habit that must be practiced and honed just like any other skill. Sometimes it can be very difficult to focus our thoughts on the information at hand. For some people they simply feel too distracted for the information to be retained. Hypnotherapy is a rapid, effective, drug free way to learn to focus and retain needed information. Hypnotherapy has been proven very effective in allowing people to delete the distractions and become more calm, centered, and focused and therefore retain more of the needed information. Along with the ability to retain also comes the desire and ability to maintain your motivation and follow thru until completion. Two major factors that adversely affect learning processes are low self esteem and lack of motivation. Additional elements which can contribute to the problem include poor study habits, poor memory, absence of reward, and fear. Hypnotherapy can help stimulate the learning process, increase motivation, boost confidence, establish beneficial study habits, and reduce study and exam tension and stress. These combined with goal setting will let you emerge with purpose, direction and organization, and a new found enthusiasm and motivation to pursue your dreams. What goals and dreams have been put on the back burner because you felt you could not move forward? Why not make this the year that you are able to reach your full potential!! • Reduce Stress
