Dear Patients,<\/strong><\/p>

Many people are familiar with the feeling of coming under pressure, even though the situation may not objectively warrant it to that extent. A critical remark, a minor mistake or a packed schedule can be enough to trigger inner tension, rumination or a feeling of being overwhelmed. Often, so-called \u2018inner drivers\u2019 are at work in the background: deeply ingrained patterns<\/strong> that are automatically triggered under stress. <\/p>

At the Alpstein Clinic, we do not view such reactions as a weakness, but rather as learned internal programmes that originally served a protective function. Under pressure, however, they can become rigid and limit one\u2019s ability to act flexibly and with self-care. In this context, hypnosis<\/strong> can be a way to better understand these automated patterns and open up new avenues for action. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The concept of inner drivers originates from transactional analysis<\/strong>. It refers to deeply ingrained internal rules that usually develop during childhood and can influence behaviour well into adulthood. Typical inner messages include, for example: \u2018Be perfect\u2019, \u2018Hurry up\u2019, \u2018Try harder\u2019, \u2018Be strong\u2019 or \u2018Please everyone\u2019. <\/p>

These patterns are not inherently problematic. They often represent positive qualities such as precision, perseverance, helpfulness or resilience. However, problems arise when, under stress, they become so dominant that freedom of choice is lost and those affected feel they are merely reacting automatically. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Internal drivers usually develop from early experiences. Children learn that certain behaviours can help them gain recognition, avoid conflict or create a sense of security. Over time, these develop into internal rules<\/strong> that initially seem sensible and protective. Later on, these patterns often persist unconsciously and are automatically triggered in stressful situations. <\/p>

For example, the early experience of only receiving recognition<\/strong> for good performance can give rise to a strong drive for perfection. Other people develop a driver that compels them to always be strong or to react as quickly as possible in order to avoid unpleasant situations. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

When under stress, people are more likely to fall back on automatic response patterns<\/strong>. Attention, thought processes and physical reactions narrow in scope, and the body resorts to familiar strategies. It is precisely at such moments that internal drivers often become particularly potent. What was once intended to provide security then turns into internal pressure.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

A typical pattern is a kind of stress spiral<\/strong>: under pressure, people try even harder to satisfy the relevant driver. Those driven by a desire for perfection become increasingly controlling. Those who want to please everyone continue to say \u2018yes\u2019, even though they lack the energy. Those who want to be strong ignore their own warning signs. As a result, the strain increases further \u2013 and the internal pressure mounts once again.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

When internal patterns <\/span><\/span> <\/span>help to control the body<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Internal drivers are not merely thoughts. They are often linked to physical reactions<\/strong>. A racing heart, rapid breathing, muscle tension, sleep disturbances or gastrointestinal complaints can all be manifestations of such stress patterns. Those affected often experience this as overwhelming and difficult to control.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

From a hypnosystemic perspective, this state is understood as a kind of narrowing of focus<\/strong>. Attention is strongly directed towards pressure, danger or self-criticism, whilst other possibilities are barely perceived. This explains why people often feel that, although they know a certain behaviour is not good for them, they are unable to act differently in that moment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201eOver-hypnosis\u201c<\/span><\/span> <\/span>as a psychological concept<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

In Gunther Schmidt\u2019s hypnosystemic approach<\/strong>, the term \u201eover-hypnosis\u201c is used to describe such processes. It refers to a state in which people involuntarily fall into rigid internal patterns that function like a self-induced trance. Their attention narrows, automatic reactions take over, and helpful alternatives are lost from view.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Even though this term is not a classic clinical diagnostic label, it describes an experience that is easily recognisable<\/strong> to many people: under stress, the inner system becomes more constricted, and familiar patterns take over.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

In this context, hypnosis is not understood as a loss of control, but as a targeted approach<\/strong> to working with attention, inner experience and existing resources. The aim is to become more aware of rigid inner patterns, to gain some distance from them and to open up new possibilities for action.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Hypnosystemic work focuses on relieving problematic internal fixations and strengthening helpful networks of experience<\/strong>. This includes, amongst other things, consciously engaging with bodily awareness, activating resources, perceiving inner aspects, and strengthening self-care and inner flexibility. In this way, hypnosis can help to reduce internal pressure and enable a renewed sense of self-efficacy.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

At the Alpstein Clinic, we consider stress responses, inner drivers and emotional overload in the context of a person\u2019s overall experience<\/strong>. Not every inner pressure has the same cause, and not every pattern requires the same approach. In our view, it is crucial not to judge stressful automatic responses too hastily, but to understand them as expressions of learned defence mechanisms.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Hypnosis can be a helpful tool in becoming more aware of inner patterns, changing how we cope with stress, and developing new inner resources<\/strong>. Our aim is not to combat aspects of one\u2019s personality, but to foster access to greater freedom of choice, inner peace and self-regulation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
