Can Hypnosis Stop You Drinking Alcohol?

Drinking alcohol is an activity millions of people all over the world indulge in. While some may enjoy a glass of wine occasionally, others drink heavily and regularly. However regular consumption of alcohol can lead to addiction which can be a dangerous affair. Not only this, but alcohol can affect the mind and body, leading to impaired judgment, poor decision-making ability, and even death in extreme cases. Discover how hypnosis stops drinking alcohol. Proven, effective methods to break free from alcohol and regain control of your life.

Yet, despite the known risks, many people continue to drink, even when they know they shouldn’t. This is where hypnosis can come in handy – it can help end unwanted drinking behaviours by changing your thought patterns, cravings, and behaviours.

How Does Hypnosis Help with Alcohol Addiction?

Hypnosis is the technique utilised when wanting to make changes in the subconscious mind. The subconscious mind is the brain’s powerful and unconscious part that is responsible for our thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes. Through the power of hypnosis a person’s thoughts, desires, and behaviours can be altered which can greatly help with stopping an unwanted habit like drinking alcohol for example.

Please note that hypnosis is not a new thing either, and has been used for centuries to treat many different health issues. In the case of alcohol addiction, hypnosis works by reprogramming the subconscious mind, helping an individual to overcome their subconscious desire to drink alcohol and remove any cravings and drinking associations too.

What Happens During a Hypnotherapy Session?

During the initial consultation, the therapist will begin by getting to know you and your background. The therapist will then ask you questions about your drinking habits such as when and how much you drink. The therapist will also ask you about your motivation for quitting drinking alcohol.

Once the therapist has an understanding of your drinking habits and motivators, this information can then be used in the subsequent hypnotherapy sessions to make changes in the subconscious mind.

The hypnosis part of the session is nothing to be afraid of either, it’s just a relaxing state, through which the hypnotherapist communicates with the subconscious mind. To help put my clients at ease, I conduct hypnosis with my clients sitting upright with their eyes open.

Benefits of Hypnotherapy in Alcohol Addiction Treatment

  1. Hypnosis is a natural and non-invasive way to treat alcohol addiction. There are no drugs or invasive procedures involved.
  2. Hypnosis has no known side effects and can, therefore, be used in conjunction with other forms of addiction treatment.
  3. Hypnotherapy sessions can be customised to meet an individual’s specific needs, making it a highly personalised treatment option.
  4. Hypnosis works to reprogram the subconscious mind, which is responsible for many of our habits and behaviours, making it a potentially effective treatment method.
  5. Hypnotherapy can help remove cravings for alcohol, manage stress and anxiety, and improve sleep patterns too

Last Words…

Hypnotherapy offers an effective alternative therapy that has shown promise in treating alcohol addiction and binge drinking. It’s also a non-invasive and natural treatment that has no known side effects either. Overall, hypnotherapy is a powerful tool that can help individuals overcome their addiction to alcohol and lead a healthier and happy life.

I commonly see clients in my practice either stopping alcohol completely or alcohol moderation with great results.  So if you are currently struggling with binge drinking or want to stop it completely, I recommend reaching out to a hypnotherapist to see what supportive help they can provide.
