Positive Change Hypnotherapy Gran Canaria

Exam nerves can be a nightmare! There is nothing worse than, after all your hard study, you walk into your exam and your mind goes blank. Your nerves and anxiety get the better of you and your brain simply stops working properly!

This is a well-known phenomenon in psychology known as state-dependant memory. The state you are in determines what you can remember. If you are in a very different state to when you learned, it is hard to recall things. If you are very anxious, your brain is simply in the wrong state for thinking!

A driving test can be failed because your anxiety is so great that some mistakes are made.

Distressingly these mistakes are only made at the time it really matters and would never have been made during a normal driving lesson.

• Believe in yourself. If you prepare for the exams properly you will do fine.
• Be realistic. Keep things in balance. If you create unrealistic goals, you will only be disappointed. Aim to do your best and for yourself, rather than others

• Take steps to overcome problems. Talk to a teacher if you don’t understand a topic. Don’t keep things bottled up. Confiding in someone you trust and who will be supportive is a great way of alleviating stress and worry
