Stop Nail biting / Thumb sucking with Hypnotherapy. Nail biting is a bad habit that strikes almost 50% of all teenagers though many simply out-grow the habit naturally. Sometimes nail-biting (or thumb sucking) crosses the line of a bad habit taking on the more distressing form of an obsessive-compulsive behavior. At this stage, it is not only embarrassing and socially awkward, but many times, it could be painful as it could cause inflammation and infection.
What if you could have beautiful long nails, without hiding them with fear of exposure?
What if you could free yourself from the embarrassment of constantly biting your nails, without being aware of it?
Hypnotherapy and NLP are most powerful modalities to stop bad habits.
However, nail biting and thumb sucking both happen unconsciously. No one decides consciously that it is time to bite their nails or suck on their thumb; children and teenagers will find themselves engaged in the habit when they are stressed or anxious. To gently and easily release a person from the prison of this habit, it is important to make them conscious and aware of it. It might seem as though it would be impossible to control the habit since it is such unconscious action.
There is help at hand though. Hypnosis and NLP are potent ways to stop nail biting and thumb sucking as well as other habits such as hair pulling, skin picking, fidgeting and teeth grinding.
How can Hypnotherapy help to stop nail biting?
Sometimes it is possible to stop the habit in just one session. However, generally a few sessions are required to work on the underlying anxiety and stress that cause these habits.
During hypnosis you become mindful and experience very deep relaxation. Powerful suggestions given to the subconscious mind ensure that you develop a different response to the trigger of stress and anxiety to which initially you would respond with the habit. In a few weeks you will have healthy well-shaped nails that you’ve always wanted.
Even so, it is important, that you are motivated to actually stop nail biting. Hypnotherapy and NLP create the choice to change and will be successful only if you are ready to embrace a change in behavior.
