Stress, concentration and exams
Hypnotherapy is a common method used to help control the nervous state during an exam, as it can help you build confidence and reduce feelings of anxiety. It can help you develop the ability to access the calm state of mind that is needed to pass an exam, or to cope with a potentially confusing situation. The power of suggestion and visualization techniques can encourage an individual to clear their mind of anxiety, and approach the exam with a cool, focused head.
INTERVIEW STRESS, CONCENTRATION AND EXAMS
José Antonio GONDELLE,
OMNI Hypnosis Practitioner.
"The great danger is that the exam is no longer a specific moment of skill assessment, but a moment of judgment. This affects deep-rooted identity, and risks reproducing certain types of resonance or bad experiences and replaying them during the exam. It's vital to be able to project your own success mentally, and to have fun preparing for your exam. This subconscious programming puts you in a state of success. With hypnosis, we can not only experience this success in the here and now and project it into the future, but also manage some of our fears."
Anne MEDICO, OMNI Hypnosis Master Practitioner, ASCA accredited.
"There are two kinds of stress: good stress and bad stress. Good stress is necessary in life. It allows us to reach our full potential and access all our resources. During an exam, bad stress easily takes over. Bad stress conjures up bad scenarios in our heads. We see ourselves as failures, plunged into an uncertain future. Yet self-confidence is a key factor in exam success. Hypnosis can keep you under the right stress. In two or three sessions, we can help you pass an exam, an interview or any other of life's tests. Everything will be easier for you!

"If you focus on your stress, you increase it and everything will get worse and worse. The human brain has great difficulty with negation. Imagine saying to yourself: "Don't stress! The brain then hears the word "stress" and amplifies it. An exam is a bit like a sporting competition. You're prepared technically, but you also need to prepare yourself mentally, which will enable you to put your technique into action when you need to, in the best possible way. Hypnosis coaching is something very simple and very fast."
