Hypnotherapy

[Guest]

Hi:
I have atrial fibrilation. It occurs once/twice a week and it usually lasts 24-48 hours. I take a lot of herbal medicines such as Hawthorne, Taurine, CoQ10, Magnesium, Calcium, Natural Blood Thinners, Vitamic C, and Ginkgo Biloba. Unfortunately, these "medicines" do not seem to be helping me and have no effect on my condition. I wanted to know what you can recommend for me because I am suffering constantly with this disorder.
Thank you,
Julia

Dear Julia,
With a Doctor referral and check up, a Hypnotherapist could work with you on this condition. Along with learning relaxation techniques, imagery could be very helpful for you. Along with your own discovery imagery, about the condition, effective imagery techniques would need to include "seeing" the normal rhythm of the heart restored. What might that look like to you in your mind's eye? Sometimes people respond to that very literally, sometimes more metaphorically. Also, imagining controlling the rate at which the ventricles contract would be another significant guided imagery journey. Learning self-hypnosis or meditation, so that you get on a daily program of health and healing, as well as working with a hypnotherapist, would be very beneficial.
