USEFUL TECHNIQUES TO RELIEVE THE PHOBIAS

The fear that certain objects and situations provoke us is a very common problem.  No matter if it is a question of the panic to the closed or opened spaces, or of the fear of certain animals or insects, or to sressful situations.

A "phobia" is an irrational fear that you feel about certain objects or situations. For the esoterism, phobias come from traumas experienced in past lives, while, for psychology, is an emotional disorder characterized by an intense fear that is disproportionate to specific objects or situations (indoors or outdoors, spiders, snakes). In a more general sense, we consider phobic to those beset by a feeling of rejection towards something that negatively affects the development of their daily lives. How to overcome claustrophobia, agoraphobia (fear of open spaces), fear of certain animals and all those fears to suffer, but we do not know where they come from? Antifobias methods we present are based on the idea that, beyond the differences, all phobias have in common the same mental attitude as a base.

PSYCHOLOGY OF PHOBIA

Fear is a monster that we invent ourselves; a ghost, once we create it, is dedicated to scare and chase us. However, this feature lies the solution of the problem, because if we can build it, so we can  destroy   it. In other words, if we evoke a ghost and then we ran, it will  follow us relentlessly, but if we choose to face it, it will be vanished. For this reason, any treatment for phobias includes the necessary exposure to what we fear, it is to confront the feared stimulus repeatedly, until no longer cause us fear. The exhibition becomes us accustomed to what we fear, it has a similar  effect to what happens with smells or noise: If you are exposed continuously to them, we don't perceive them anymore. The second positive result is the weakening of fear, because the more we approach the feared object, the less fear we have and, conversely, the further one gets, the more phobia generated.

Here, several psychological and esoteric techniques to overcome that feeling of denial, underlying sense of panic and anxiety that cause us phobias.

FIRST SOLUTION: THE CONTROL OF ANXIETY

Phobic fears are the result of anxiogenic thoughts (those that cause anxiety and distress) we make, for example, when we exaggerate the possibilities and negative consequences of something that might happen and what we fear. So someone who is afraid to go outside, feel real panic if he/sihe starts thinking that might fall out over a balcony, that a car can run him over, that he can be attacked, and so on. An effective way to improve this aspect is to look for information on why it is scary, then think about how you could solve yourself, not only by calculating the real possibilities of that happening, but minimizing negative impacts and maximizing positive ones. I mean, to think about what I can do to prevent it and in my power to fix what I can not help. This approach helps the phobic person to value the knowledge they have about what frightens him/her, developing techniques to produce a "mental control", which will assist you in overcoming your phobia. In this regard, the effectiveness of exposure is in the change of the threat belief that to which it produces is a phobic. For this reason, the best way to combat phobias is to know more about what makes us scared.

USEFUL TECHNIQUES

However, direct exposure to the object or situation and the knowledge about them, are not the only methods. Then others can help:

Exposure introspective if the phobia is related to the fear of internal sensations-typical-phobic reaction, it may help cause these sensations (imagination and gradually learn to fear them not). This has been very successful in claustrophobic patients (who are afraid of enclosed spaces).

Physiological Stress: used especially in the early stages of treatment for the patient learns to control their physiological reactions of aversion (sweat, cold, palpitations, trembling, choking, etc.). The therapist stabilizes the rates of anxiety through relaxation exercises, practicing diaphragmatic breathing slow and distracting the phobic at times going to have a panic attack, or teaching him to do it alone.

Applied muscle tension: useful to prevent fainting caused by panic attacks. Is to accompany exposure to the feared situation with voluntary tension of the muscles of the body to temporarily raise blood pressure, helping thus to avoid fainting.

PARAPSYCHOLOGY: PAST LIVES THERAPY

As mentioned, some esoteric theories explain the phobia as a trauma or an "unresolved relationship" with that to which he is afraid. For this reason, the phobic can not reason about their fears and can not remember the time when he had his first traumatic experience.

Past life therapy is a treatment in parapsychology in which the therapist induces a hypnotic state the patient, asking him to describe, in a state of trance, spontaneous images that arise in his/her mind. Thus, it may happen that the person  talks to people and places that does not know; data retrieved from the memory of being spiritual, of which arise sensations, feelings and thoughts of other times in their lives that have passed to it by the emotional disability resolve them before they die. The phobia is solved by means of catharsis (releasing effect) that the patient feels to talk about their fears. It is then that he realizes that the cause of their fears are in a past of which he doesn't have no conscience and that can be accessed only by this method.

The phobia is actually an extended way of anxiety, a sense of deep fear to which our body reacts instinctively, that's why the motto of a person with phobia should be to find ways to overcome phobias. We are willing to help.
