Full hypnosis download Stop nervous coughing

It’s a curious thing. Often times the person with a nervous cough is the last person to actually become aware of their habitual nervy throat clearing. But once they are aware of it then they may become obsessed with it: “Oh no! I’m doing it again!”

But why do some people start nervous coughing in the first place? Sometimes it happens after a period of illness – where, perhaps, genuine coughing was a symptom – that just lingers on as a habit. I think for some people nervous coughing may even be like a metaphor for trying to rid themselves of stress. But whatever the cause, nervous coughing can be a real distraction for the cougher, who may want to appear professional or socially confident but keeps being ‘tripped up’ by their own nervous coughing.

Of course, if you keep coughing it’s important to rule out any possible physical cause with a medical professional before looking to deal with it psychologically. So we urge anyone thinking about using our new ‘nervous cough’ download for hypnosisdownloads.com to have a health check first.

We use hypnosis to deal effectively with habits that have become so ingrained they’ve become unconscious and automatic – in the sense that you don’t know you’re going to do it in advance, and just catch yourself doing it when it happens.

All the best
