'My fear of dogs has been with me for as long as I can remember,' writes the M.E.N's Rami Mwamba
Cynophobia is the extreme fear of dogs that affects both children and adults. The name of the phobia comes from the Greek word ‘cyno’, which means dog.
The other time you would see dogs was when they sat menacingly with snarling teeth at the feet of an imposing soldier in army fatigues and an AK47 strapped to his back at the local market. A scary sight for any young child. When booking the job, Jonathan asked if I was willing to be ‘hypnotised’ and made sure to remind me that the process works best on people who are open to taking part. I spent the days prior challenging my scepticism and any biases I had towards hypnotherapy and hypnotists.
All these methods were physical ‘proof’ for my conscience to trust and believe in Jonathan’s words that would eventually help me rewire my thought process when it came to my fear. While in the ‘deep sleep’, Jonathan asked me to imagine my fears projected on a magic television. He talked me through engaging with that fear, asking me to imagine myself demolishing the TV which I did by using an imaginary baseball bat.
