How To Stop Nail Biting

Course Overview



If you find yourself biting your nails when you feel stressed or anxious, then this self-help course is for you. Nail-biting can lead to unattractive, short and painful nails which can make people feel self-conscious and lower self-esteem. Thankfully, there are well-researched and evidence-based ways that nail-biters can learn to stop biting their fingers and nails. With a clinical hypnotherapist, over five lessons, students will be guided through the psychoeducation of why people develop unhelpful habits like nail biting or skin picking. Students will then be taught practical tools and techniques so they can first spot the habit, then stop it, and switch it for a less harmful behaviour such as clenching their fist. These self-help techniques use concepts from behavioural therapy and self-hypnosis so that students can stop the habit for good. Begin this programme to learn the simple steps required to finally stop biting nails or fingers.
