Cain killed Abel because he was jealous of him. Da Vinci Code says St. Peter was jealous of Jesus’ affection towards Mary Magdalene. Jealousy has been a part of human existence since the time our forefathers walked this earth, and even today it is one of the most common emotions that affect people across the world. We could go as far as saying that it’s the most human of all emotions, and it’s natural to feel jealous from time to time. But if it is this human, why is it called the Green Monster? It’s because if jealousy goes unchecked it can bring about obsessive behavior, uncontrollable anger and can even lead to violence. It is at such a stage that intervention is required to keep jealousy at bay, and this is where a session of Hypnotherapy could help you.
Jealousy is a result of an overactive imagination, and is further fuelled by insecurity that a person might be afflicted with. When this imagination and insecurity coincide, what takes place are ugly scenes, in the mind of the person who is jealous. A simple action or word spoken by your partner can take on epic proportions, as you play out scenes of infidelity over and over in your mind.
In most cases this suspicion is unfounded and can only lead to hurting and mud-slinging. If one lets it remain that way, a lot of anger and bitterness can be left festering in both the partners, which could eventually lead to the death of what otherwise could have been a happy relationship.
How can hypnotherapy help you in curing an emotional problem such as jealousy? One of the first things to be established when you consult a practitioner for hypnotherapy is that your jealousy is the result of immense love for your partner. But they will also tell you at the same time that the way you channelise this love might be misguided. Your intentions might be noble, but the route you take to demonstrate the love is not right. Controlling someone’s life to protect them is not the best thing to do. In love, one needs to let go. And this is exactly what you will learn.
Hypnotherapy makes you aware of the core issues in your past that act as triggers for this jealousy. It helps you create a positive self image, so that the insecurities are done away with. It helps you in being calm, confident and positive; and you will be surprised at the changes you will see in your partner’s behavior. Remember negativity breeds negativity and the best gift to give yourself and your partner is to make efforts to get out of these negative emotions and work towards nurturing a relationship.
