It's three days before the BIG day, the day of judgement, when all that work and preparation you have been doing over the last few months will be laid bare for all to see. It's not just a case of plonking a dissertation on the course leaders desk, oh no! Not this time round. You're going to have to present the entire report in front of the whole company, including the MD and FD. You can't make a single mistake; you can't show that you're nervous or unprepared; you have to nail this one, your promotion and pay rise rest on this and only this. There's nothing like a bit of pressure to stop you sleeping at nights. Tossing and turning with facts and figures a jumble racing around your mind like a cat chasing a thousand mice all at once and all the while you're trying to sleep, in fact your shouting at yourself to sleep, you need to be well rested so you don't slip up.

You stare at your alarm clock, its 3am, 4am, and 5am; finally you dose off....only to be unceremoniously woken by your alarm buzzing excitedly beside you at 7am. You feel like you weigh about a tonne and most of that weight is clamping shut your ...
... eyes. Slowly, like your wading through waist high syrup you move to the bathroom, deliberately avoid the mirror and clamber into the shower. As the warm droplets of water cascade down onto your face and shoulders you drift off again, your a million miles away, somewhere warm and relaxing, minutes fly past, this is bliss......suddenly that warming waterfall turns into a freezing hail storm and your snapped back into reality....all the hot water's gone, again.

You can't go on like this, at work your like a zombie and even two sugar filled black coffees aren't shifting the malaise...your co workers have already systematically noted that you look ‘like death warmed up', one of them takes pity on you, she sits down on the spinny chair to your right and leans in and asks whether your alright, just then the caffeine kicks in like a explosion in your mind, it all comes out, the sleepless nights, the endless stress and no way out of the vicious, exhausting cycle you find yourself in. She listens attentively and then asks you if you have ever tried self hypnosis relaxation, you stare at her blankly for a second, hypnosis? Isn't that what happens to those people on that Derren Brown programme? They just end up seeming bamboozled! How is that going to help you relax?? She sees your point, but perseveres nonetheless; she explains that self hypnosis relaxation is a fantastic way of alleviating stress and helping you to relax and can be practiced very easily at home, in fact she has and still uses self hypnosis relaxation to keep her sane at work, but has also seen the benefits in her personal life. Through self hypnosis relaxation she sleeps much better even when the chips are down.

You're now intrigued and eager to learn more about self hypnosis relaxation, so she points you in the direction of a few websites and you have a good old read on your lunch break. You've printed out all the information you need to get started and have set aside some time later that night to give it a whirl, suddenly the sky looks a little brighter, the clouds are clearing and you feel that things although tough, will be more manageable now you have the self hypnosis relaxation as your secret weapon.
