How To Cure Fear of Spiders

While arachnophobia is often associated with the movie of the same name, it is actually a very real medical condition more commonly known as the fear of spiders. Those who suffer from the phobia are not only afraid of spiders, but they also fear places where spiders might be, and since that’s pretty much everywhere, this can lead to a very limited lifestyle. Arachnophobia causes such physical symptoms as excessive sweating, rapid breathing and heartbeat, nausea, and dizziness. It can even cause panic attacks.

However, there are ways to cure a fear of spiders. Most commonly, the treatment takes the form of aversion therapy, where the patient learns about spiders and eventually learns to confront them face-to-face. Sound scary? It can be, especially for those whose fear is unusually intense.

There is another way, though, to cure arachnophobia that is safe, easy, and painless—and doesn’t involve spiders: hypnosis. The mind is separated into two distinct parts, the conscious mind, which is what we use when we are awake and alert, and the unconscious mind, where we store our thoughts, dreams, and fears. Hypnosis breaks down the barrier between the two minds and allows us to get at our fears, which we can’t do when we are in our conscious minds. We can look at our fears, examine why they are there, and replace them with what is called hypnotic suggestions.

These are suggestions that are positive and healthy and allow us to live our lives feeling good about ourselves. You will come out of your hypnosis feeling refreshed, relax, and free from your fear of spiders. You may not ever adore spiders—few people do—but you will be able to live your life in a way you couldn’t before.
