If you suffer from IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) or any gastrointestinal problem, you might find my article useful. My name is David Faratian and I am a clinical hypnotherapist with over 15 years of experience. I have helped people with many issues using hypnosis and mindfulness. I would like to share with you how the two can help with symptoms of IBS:

How Stress Leads to IBS
About 1 in 4 people suffer from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), it can often be mistaken for a stomach bug, period of pain, or other often hard-to-diagnose issues. That's why there are a lot of people living with this uncomfortable condition of the large intestine without even knowing.
How stressful are the situations or circumstances that contribute to your IBS attacks? We understand that you can experience stress and anxiety from a wide range of causes. This is often due to unfortunate incidents, life changes that result in job loss, depression, relationship issues, or even an accident.
What are the Symptoms of IBS?
IBS, or Irritable Bowel Syndrome, is caused by a variety of symptoms. Symptoms of IBS vary greatly from person to person, meaning both sufferers and their partners may be left confused and uncertain of what’s happening to them. The most common symptoms of IBS are often recognized as pain – stomach aches, cramps, diarrhea, constipation, flatulence, and bloating.
The moment you notice stress symptoms such as nausea in your chest, abdominal bloating, or wind you know that an attack of some kind is imminent. IBS is found to be more common in people who live a hectic lifestyle.
What can you do about IBS?
IBS can be very debilitating and stressful. It affects many people who suffer unpredictable bowel movements and abdominal pain. Stress is known to exacerbate IBS symptoms and managing stress levels while dealing with IBS can be a vital step to relieving IBS symptoms.
Making certain lifestyle changes can help you live a more relaxing life. Relaxation exercises help with coping with the symptoms of IBS. Many natural remedies are available for treating your IBS better and reducing your blood pressure levels which in turn helps in reducing stress on your body, but the key is simpler than you may think. Essentially you need to learn how to reduce the subconscious release of adrenalin and cortisol into the bloodstream through methods that help the body feel at ease rather than under threat.
