The CDC has released guidelines for how people can return to work safely. For many people, those guidelines don’t help to overcome the fear of going back to work. Not knowing if you might get sick and all the other uncertainties can make it difficult to feel safe.
Unfortunately, there’s no time to go through months of counseling to learn how to feel safe at work. You’re being asked to return to work soon, so you need to find fast ways to manage your fear.
Hypnosis and Fear
One way to deal with your fear quickly is through hypnosis. Fear is an emotion, and our subconscious controls emotions. Hypnosis reaches into the subconscious to treat that fear.
Trying to treat fear just by changing the way you think is hard to do. The mind has layers of reasons and memories that it uses to keep the fear going. The fear can stay on the same hamster wheel in your mind, going and going and unable to stop. No amount of talking or reasoning will check its course. It will keep running until the subconscious decides to stop the fear.
Overcome the Fear of Going Back to Work with Hypnosis
With a certified hypnotist, you can control your fear quickly, allowing you to go to work with less worry. Hypnosis works with your subconscious, training it to see and use fear in a more helpful way. Although the pandemic makes the fear of getting sick a real fear, the subconscious can blow reality out of proportion. It can make things seem much worse than they really are. Hypnosis allows the subconscious to see the world more clearly, gauging threats accurately instead of panicking.
Hypnosis can also train your instincts about the pandemic to be more reasonable. Your subconscious manages a lot of your instincts. And how you respond to real threats is important. Although you want to overcome your fear of going back to work, you may also want to keep some of that fear to keep you safe. Hypnosis can teach the subconscious when it needs to be careful, so that you can still remember to take precautions at work, like maintaining social distancing and wearing a mask. Imagine if you didn’t fear anything and stopped washing your hands!
Being Work Ready
For a lot of people, returning to work is not an option. They’ve lost their jobs, and those businesses won’t open again anytime soon. They’re left trying to scrape by while they search for another job during a pandemic. It’s hard when you think about them, not to feel grateful for a paycheck. However, you have a right to feel scared and feel thankful for a paycheck at the same time. So, even if you fear going back to work, you’ll have to find quick ways to deal with that fear. Hypnosis is an ideal way to overcome the fear of going back to work.
