It is not too unusual to find a person with a spider phobia. If you are reading this, you probably include yourself amongst the number of people who have a terrible fear of those creepy, eight legged creepy crawlies. I don’t like spiders myself and avoid them when I can. It’s fairly easy to realize why you would be afraid of spiders. They creep around with their plump bodies and hairy legs, spinning webs to trap prey and suck the life out of them. Am I freaking you out right now or just myself? Thankfully, you don’t need to live with your spider phobia forever. Through hypnosis, you can rid yourself of your spider phobia and stop freezing up or running a mile whenever you see one of those nasties. To understand how hypnosis can help you with your spider phobia, you must understand how hypnosis works. First, it relaxes you into a state not unlike meditation or deep sleep. However, the relaxation is really not exactly the same as that either, as it still keeps your mind open to suggestion and the second part of hypnosis. By applying suggestion to your subconscious mind, it can alter your conscious mind. In this case, your subconscious mind will tell your conscious mind that spiders are more afraid of you than you are of them, so there is no need to be afraid of them. Hypnosis is actually very simple, but its results are very strong. Freeing people of their fears is one of its most popular uses and it can work wonders on your spider phobia. Through the use of self-hypnosis tapes or by visiting a hypnotherapist, you can quickly set aside your arachnophobia and be comfortable enough around spiders to either leave them to their own devices, or just whack them with a newspaper. When you make up your mind that it is now time to get rid of your spider phobia, hypnosis can allow you to be comfortable around them. So let hypnosis work for you, and put your spider phobia into your past, where it belongs.

Given the amount of people that suffer from phobias in the world it’s surprising there are not more places online to offer help and advice but there is help to be found at The Fear Forum. You will find people from all over the world giving helpful advice as well as specialists from hypnotherapists, psychotherapists and mental health nurses offering their expert knowledge about phobias.
Arachnophobia is pretty common and there are a few people on the forum that suffer from this and can relate. You can find a comprehensive list of phobias on the Phobia List.
Spiders are a pretty common phobia so this could help a lot of people. Hypnosis seems to be more popular than ever too, especially for therapeutic reasons.
I have a huge fear of spiders and had never thought of hypnosis for this fear. I may just give it a go.
Kelly don’t look at the graphic! Hypnosis gets good results for phobias too. Give it a try.
Hello,
I also have a HUGE fear of spiders. And looking for help online is very difficult for me, because many sites have some pictures of spiders. This site has an UGLY spider at the beginning of this article. This is just stupid, how could a person with spider phobia read this article! I had to cover the picture with a piece of paper. I freaked out when i saw this spider, and when I covered it with a paper, my hand was shaking!
Listen to my advice and remove the picture if you really want to help people like me, so they could read it. The hypnosis therapy may just be the solution for me!
Hello Jon
You have a very good point and I was just not thinking straight. I really appreciate your input and I will remove the photo to something not so scary for my readers.
This is a nice blog with very good information on hypnosis material. Bookmarking now and will continue to visit in the future. Good Job.

“spiders are nature’s way of telling you that you still are a little girl”
