Election feelings. Do you have anxiety about the upcoming election? The United States presidential election is in 28 days, Tuesday, November 5th, 2024. Many people are still stinging from the 2020 election. Let’s see how hypnotherapy helped a woman with post-election anxiety in the 2016 election.
Election Anxiety
The following is a case from the 2016 election, Hillary Clinton vs Donald Trump. The 2024 election pits another woman, Kamala Harris against former President Donald Trump. Hypnotherapy helped with anger and anxiety issues after the 2016 election.
After seeing the 2016 election results, a young woman had an intense emotional outburst. During an argument with a family member, a glass coffee table was broken, resulting in a wrist injury and heightened tensions within the household.
In the first session, she expressed deep frustration and disappointment. Initially unsure of the cause behind the extreme reaction, she described a sense of injustice and unfairness as the underlying trigger.
Through hypnosis, she gained a clearer understanding of their emotions. It became evident that the outburst was not solely related to the election results but was tied to unresolved feelings toward authority figures and past personal experiences. For her, the desire for a female president represented something much larger than a specific candidate—symbolizing the broader fight for women’s rights and equality.
Things Will Get Better
Everyone interprets events differently, shaped by their personal history and past experiences. Emotional reactions often stem from deeper, unresolved issues. It is essential to pause and ask, “Is this feeling truly about the current situation, or is it a reflection of something deeper within?”
In moments like these, it’s helpful to reflect on whether these emotions are constructive. Has personal power been unknowingly handed over to external events? While no one can predict the future or change past outcomes, the ability to control one’s response remains within reach. Perceptions and beliefs may not always align with reality, and what feels true may not always be fact.
For those feeling anxious, angry, or overwhelmed, it is possible to regain balance by turning inward and finding calm.
After an election triggers intense emotions, reflecting on deeper unresolved issues can help you regain control, find calm, and move forward with compassion. For more insights on managing stress, especially in professional settings, consult our post on workplace anxiety and mental health for women.
The difficulty of accepting reality, especially when outcomes don’t align with hopes, is natural. However, just as in any competition, one must accept both victories and defeats and find the strength to move forward.
Holding onto negativity can only harm personal peace, health, and relationships. It’s important to refocus on what truly matters—well-being, happiness, and meaningful connections. Blame and negative energy can only perpetuate stress and unhappiness.
It’s time to take back power, move forward with compassion, and focus on healing. If someone is struggling with overwhelming emotions, there are ways to find calm and clarity by tapping into the inner self.
