1. Permanent problems falling asleep

Each of us knows the feeling of having “slept badly”. This is completely normal and has different reasons. Sometimes a cold is coming or an important exam makes us restless. It's unpleasant, but it will pass. It becomes more difficult for those who “simply haven’t slept well for a long time.“

Beatrix Michels-Grötzsch is a mental and hypnosis coach and expert in the field of mental health. She has been advising her clients as a mental coach for over 15 years and repeatedly finds that mental difficulties go hand in hand with sleep problems. And only rarely, as she has experienced, is the cause of this due to physical health. Nevertheless, she always recommends discussing sleep problems with a doctor.

In most cases that Beatrix Michels-Grötzsch knows, the reasons for the persistently poor sleep lie in everyday life. Professional stress, our own expectations or worries and fears rob us of sleep. And the fatal thing is that you get more and more into this insomnia. Soon the fear of “not being able to sleep” becomes our biggest enemy.

In order to improve relaxation and sleep, Beatrix repeatedly uses hypnotic elements in her work.

2. What is hypnosis?

Hypnosis is a process through which you reach a state of deep relaxation. In this state, called trance, you are deeply relaxed and highly concentrated at the same time. The conscious mind, as one can describe it, is “shut down” and the subconscious mind can absorb suggestions better.

Especially in cases of inner restlessness, problems falling asleep or staying asleep, hypnotic support, e.g.b a hypnotic dream journey, proven to be an effective and beneficial means for better sleep. From her own experience, Beatrix can even determine that hypnosis can not only resolve long-standing sleep disorders very quickly, but also permanently. Of course, this always requires a detailed discussion about the anamnesis.

3. How does a hypnotic dream journey work?

Hypnotic dream trips can be viewed as a mild form of hypnosis. They have a relaxing effect and make it possible to mentally transport yourself to places and forget about everyday life. The difference to hypnosis is, among other things, that hypnosis puts you in a deep trance state, while in the dream journey you are transported to a fantasy world.

On a dream or fantasy trip you are usually guided by a coach or an auditory accompaniment. You concentrate on your inner, visual imagination and imagine being anywhere. For example, on a sunny beach or in a quiet forest clearing. In this light trance state, reality and imagination blur, creating an intense mental experience. Positive suggestions then weaken negative feelings, making you more relaxed and optimistic. And the body also begins to relax: breathing and heartbeat slow down, blood pressure drops.

4. Hypnotic dream journeys for better sleep

If Stress, fears and worries are responsible for us not being able to calm down and sleep, these hypnotic trance states can have a relaxing and soporific effect and gently help to make sleep more restful again .

Because the mental relaxation achieved through a trance can break the cycle of mental stress. The relaxing places that are found in a hypnotic journey ensure that you can easily leave the carousel of thoughts in the evening and reach a place of peace and relaxation.

This makes it easier to fall asleep and ensures a deep and restful sleep. With every hypnotic dream journey, this feeling of well-being becomes more and more common and you learn to remain more relaxed during the day in stressful or challenging situations.

5. Don't be afraid of hypnosis

Many people know the so-called “show hypnosis” from television and when they hear the word hypnosis they think of a completely uncontrollable state in which one is at the mercy of all external influences. This “show hypnosis” has little to do with a hypnotic dream journey. What was once considered “mystical mumbo-jumbo” is now also recognized in science. Numerous studies prove the effectiveness of hypnosis therapy.

Hypnotic dream journeys make use of these effective elements of hypnosis. The instructions do not control you, but rather give you suggestions that you can implement as you wish in your inner imagination. This can help you sleep better in a natural way and go through life less stressed.
