GENDER SPECIFIC STRESS FACED BY MEN AND THE ROLE OF HYPNOTHERAPY IN REDUCING THIS

Being a man is a tough job, not to take away from the many challenges that women face. In a world that is rightfully concerned with women’s issues, you as man have to take out some time to recognize the challenges you face and deal with them appropriately.

One of the biggest challenges men in New Zealand and anywhere else face is stress and thus the emphasis here is on gender specific stress that men face, the impacts of stress on men, and solutions for stress faced by men.

Gender Specific Stress Faced by Men

Social mores often fit men into a strict role of being a provider, a breadwinner, limits men’s freedom to express various emotions and even conditions the way men look and behave. All of these riders and conditions that come with being a man come with the pressures of meeting up with these expectations. Men are burdened by responsibilities such as making money, paying the bills, excelling in the work environment and also having a thriving social life out of work and though men have broad shoulders these burdens at times just do not sit right and result in facing major negative health impacts.

Research shows that men are more prone to cardiac disease, high blood pressure, low sperm count, social withdrawal, prostate cancer, and erectile dysfunction and of course stress has a conspicuous connection with all of these ailments.

So how does a man deal with these health hazards? “Men are often labelled as the “strong silent type” which indicates that they deal with stress and anxiety without venting their frustrations to a second person” says Richard Kellow Clinical Hypnotherapist at Auckland Hypnotherapy in Ponsonby “You as a man do not want to be branded as ‘whiny’ or complacent.”

Bearing all of this in mind, hypnotherapy for stress might prove to be an effective solution to multiple health diseases impacting men worldwide.

While it is not practical to become drug dependent or ignore and get used to stress and anxiety, men rarely opt for counselling which takes us back to the “strong silent type” tag that men try hard to live up to. As such, men can benefit from hypnotherapy to reduce these undue pressures of life.

Hypnotherapy works to have many positive health benefits for men in various ways.

• Hypnotherapy combats stress by helping the person achieve a state of deep relaxation.

• Tensions follow men on holidays and into clubs, sports fields and work. However, when you opt for hypnotherapy, your mind is assisted to make it’s way into an inner space wherein negativities cannot intrude.

• In this inner space of the mind, you are open to positive suggestions and an experienced hypnotherapist can suggest a change in response to trauma inducing circumstances in life.

• The emphasis is on guiding the mind towards responding to challenges as just what they are challenges to be overcome.

• Hypnotherapy conditions the mind to “fight or flight” response to challenges in life and to opt for a more practical and less stressful approach.

In conclusion, the benefits of hypnotherapy are best experienced first-hand. Contact Richard Kellow at Auckland Hypnotherapy
