How Are You Going To Help My Tinnitus Problems?
There are a variety of treatments for tinnitus that have emerged from the fields of hypnotherapy and NLP. Some of them involve consciously learning particular routines when the condition is particularly 'bad' Some of them aim to reduce your awareness of the problem, making it fall away from consciousness.
Becoming Less Aware Of Tinnitus
As you read this you may well be focussing on the sounds in your mind that we label 'tinnitus'. After all, you are reading about a page devoted to the condition. While you are reading these words you are probably not aware of the other sounds in your environment to the same extent such as the sound of your computer's fan.
Hearing, awareness of sound, can be highly selective. Consider, for example, someone who moves next to a railway line, or under a flight-path near an airport. To begin with they will probably notice every train that goes by, and every plane that flies overhead. If you don't live in a location like this but you have visited a friend who does live in such a place what will probably have happened was this. You will have been highly aware of the sounds that went by, they may even have made you jump. These sounds, however, in all likelihood, won't have even registered in your friend's consciousness…
Hypnotherapy And NLP Tinnitus Treatments
There are range of hypnotherapeutic techniques and treatments that aim to train your mind to treat the sounds of tinnitus as if you had 'got used to them', and 'didn't notice them' (the passing train phenomena). This is done by suggestions and embedded commands, delivered either directly, or via metaphor. This kind of approach can often be very effective in reducing your awareness of the sounds of tinnitus. There are some NLP approaches that literally 'play' with the way that you experience the sounds, altering them, moving them, changing the apparent direction, changing the tone. Sometimes a person can be trained to literally take control of the sounds – and then turn the volume down, or off...
