Can Hypnotherapy Help With Racing Thoughts at Night?

Hypnotherapy may help people who struggle to switch off mentally at night, particularly when racing thoughts are connected with anxiety, stress or learned patterns of hyper-alertness.
A hypnotic state naturally involves focused attention and relaxation, which can provide an opportunity to practise moving away from constant mental problem-solving.
Therapy can also address the underlying worries that become more prominent at bedtime.
Hypnotherapy should not be presented as a guaranteed cure for insomnia, and persistent sleep problems may have medical, psychological or behavioural causes that need appropriate assessment.
