Original Broadcast: The Hypnotist
Even for successful business people, social situations can raise their anxiety level to the point when some resort to drink or drugs. Retreating from these comfort blankets can, however, result in continued discomfort and even a sense of shame for having let people down, causing further detachment. Adam Cox explores how to re-construct a sense of calm and relief in one's own company and transfer it into some of the more common social situations, thereby enabling a new belief system and a way back from isolation.

We carry out most bodily functions — for example, breathing — sub-consciously. Here's a situation where focusing attention on something — in this case, swallowing food and choking — can give rise to anxiety. Adam Cox draws attention to the challenge that can be created by trying to do something, but failing in the attempt, in order to recreate an intuitive unconsciousness.

A disciplined approach to losing weight is not uncommon in the new year, but does it give rise to a feeling of inner conflict and resistance?

The challenge of losing weight is often accompanied by a set of self-imposed rules, and such an approach is an invitation to feel 'good' or 'bad' about it. Breaking the rules can become or source of joy leading to binges, and rigid diets can easily lead to internal conflicts. This is defined as 'polarity responding' by hypnotists, and Adam Cox helps by explaining how this adopted morality is all a bit artificial.
