Hypnosis is used for many reasons. It can help with stress, anxiety, depression, weight control or loss, smoking cessation, caffeine addiction, bad habits, study habits and even sports enhancement. There are literally hundreds of things hypnosis can help in advancing a better, healthier lifestyle.

According to Laura Ryan-Day , hypnotherapist and N.L.P. Practitioner of A New Day Hypnosis in Austin, the top issues she is seeing clients for are stress anxiety, fear of flying and smoking cessation.

Stress anxiety can be caused by many factors. In today’s world of economic woes, dangerous situations, work, unemployment, money, family, and so on, it is no wonder so many people are feeling the stress of modern society. Hypnosis offers an alternative to medication. Many clients upon coming out of a hypnotic trance say how wonderful they feel having completely relaxed. Hypnosis can relieve the stress and help give you the tools to relax, even in the most stressful of times.


We are becoming a more traveled society and fear of flying tops the list. Air travel is stressful, and can actually cause real fear for some people. With additional security measures and terror fears, flying is adds new stresses to the business and vacation traveler. Hypnosis gives you a way to relax and face fear without the stress usually associated with flying. Even the most phobic flyer can be helped with hypnosis. It is important to know, however if you have a fear or phobia. Consult your hypnotist or hypnotherapist before engaging in hypnosis to combat a fear or phobia. They are handled completely differently.

The number three reason for seeing a hypnotist is smoking cessation. Smokers have been forced out doors, out of restaurants, and to the dark depths of nowhere to indulge their habit. Because of this and health issues associated with smoking, smokers have turned to many ways to stop. Some choose gums, others “the patch,” while others try things even more risky. Although hypnosis is not a magic bullet, it can be a very easy way to help you stop smoking. It is painless and you have a support system with your hypnotist/hypnotherapist. It still takes you as a smoker to do some work, but at least you have someone in your corner there for support.

Reasons for using hypnosis…147 and counting. There are many hypnotists and hypnotherapists in the Austin are that can help. Choose wisely and get on with living.

    Very interesting. It's refreshing to know that there are other alternatives to medication that will help with phobias and bad habits. I've never thought about hypnotherapy as a stress reliever, but it makes perfect sense. Thanks for the information.

    I never realized so many people are afraid of flying. I would have thought weight loss would be in the top three. Very enlightening article!

    Holly, I think fear of flying came about more recently and I'm not so sure it is a fear as much as an anxiety. The process of flying has gotten complicated, with all the extra security and all. I'm pretty sure that added a lot to the numbers. Plus, it's only been a few years that we all became aware of how dangerous some people are and how close to home it really can get.
    Thanks for your comment.
