ICHP Hypnotherapy & Psychotherapy Our hypnotherapy in Adelaide offers an alternative and effective treatment for a variety of disorders and concerns. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, anger management, depression, fear, or you simply want help to beat your smoking, gambling addi

ction or weight loss. Our professional Adelaide hypnotherapist and psychotherapist can be of assistance. It's a well known fact that successful athletes practice visualisation in their attempts to better themselves and beat their competition. Visualising themselves every step of the way from the moment the start is given to that moment they cross the finish line, before anyone else. Each step, each breath, each movement is visualised, like watching a movie of themselves, so that their body & mind knows what to do. Hypno coaching is taking visualisation to a higher level where you 'experience' achieving your goal, in a way that it 'is' real. By doing this, you are able to build a new 'memory' of that experience, achieving your goal, including the journey and that very important moment of realisation "I have done it" with all your senses. Utilising the amazing power of the minds memory and that desire of repeating the experience of that ultimate moment of success. How can you fail if you have the powerful pull of desire and know that you have done it before successfully. Hypno coaching can be applied to life and business alike as we overcome obstacles both within and your environment and achieve clear objectives and goals.

Time for another Weekend Challenge

Affirmation Tweet

Craft a powerful, tweet-length (≤280 characters) affirmation that hones your mindset or business focus. It can start with “I am…” or frame a positive action (“Today I…”). This quick exercise sharpens your clarity and gives you ready-to-use social posts.

How it works:
1. Write one affirmation in 280 characters or less.
2. Make it personal to your hypnotherapy practice or entrepreneurial journey.
3. Share by commenting on this post.

Examples:
• “I am a beacon of calm confidence—every session I guide clients toward lasting transformation.”
• “Today I attract my ideal clients effortlessly, aligning my energy with abundance and purpose.”
• “I am the expert my clients need; my words heal, my presence empowers, my practice thrives.”
• “Today I choose clarity over chaos and growth over fear—my business flourishes with every step.”
• “I am worthy of success, and each breath I take deepens my clients’ trust and healing.”

Have fun!

Scam warning.

Over the past 2-3 months I've encountered online enquiries from my website's contact forms with overseas numbers.

Because they are starting to become more frequent,
I thought I'd investigate a bit and put out a warning.

Two clear indicators are the non Australian phone number,
and the mismatch between the name and the email address.

Researching the email address,
I found that there are quite a few spam/scam reports
where it has been misused in the recent days.

2 takeaways to keep you safe.

Keep your email access strongly protected!

Don't waste your time on an enquiry that comes with an international number, it's most likely not genuine and might draw you into a situation where you not only loose time but also money.

Reach out if you have any questions.

It's time for another Weekend Challenge

Mini-Meme Maker create a quick, hypnotherapy-themed meme using a familiar template and a short caption—no design software needed, just your phone or a free online meme generator. It’s a playful way to flex your copy skills and give everyone a laugh.

What to do:
1. Choose a popular meme format (e.g. Distracted Boyfriend, Drake Hotline Bling, Two-Button Choice).
2. Add your own twist in a 1–2-line caption that reflects a hypnotherapy or business scenario.
3. Share it by replying to the email or posting on our page.

Example Memes
A. Distracted Boyfriend
○ Boyfriend looking at “Perfect Client Attraction Strategy,” girlfriend labeled “Spending hours on admin.”
○ Caption: “When you realize hypnotic marketing beats busywork any day.”
B. Drake Hotline Bling
○ Top panel (Drake rejecting): “Wasting money on random ads”
○ Bottom panel (Drake approving): “Using hypnotherapy hooks that speak to deep desires”
C. Two-Button Choice
○ Person sweating over two options:
§ Button A: “Spend 2 hours prepping slides”
§ Button B: “Record 2-minute relaxation script”
○ Caption: “Weekend decisions for the savvy hypnotherapist”

Have fun!

It's time for another Weekend Challenge

This weekend's fun challenge helps you tap into the emotional arc of change—and gives you a ready-made “Hypno Playlist” to use in marketing or client onboarding.

The Therapy Soundtrack
is a quick, creative playlist exercise that maps your ideal client’s journey to three songs.

1. Pick three tracks that symbolise:
○ Where they start (stuck or stressed)
○ Their breakthrough (the “aha” moment)
○ Where they end up (thriving or transformed)
2. Explain in one line why each song fits that stage.

Example A:
○ “Here Comes the Sun” – optimism & new beginnings
○ “Fix You” – gentle support through struggle
○ “Rise Up” – empowerment & breakthrough
Example B:
○ “Breathe” by Télépopmusik – settling into calm
○ “Stronger” by Kanye West – building confidence
○ “Happy” by Pharrell Williams – celebrating success
Example C:
○ “Weightless” by Marconi Union – deep relaxation
○ “Don’t Stop Believin’” by Journey – hopeful momentum
○ “Good Life” by OneRepublic – thriving after change

Have fun!

I need your help.

Can you spare me 2 minutes and give me your opinion?

The 2nd half of 2025 is upon us in a few days and
I will be announcing dates for my Strategy based workshops soon.

I’m thinking of doing it as a series of 3
• Strategy based Smoking Cessation 4 weeks
• Strategy based Gambling Cessation 4 weeks
• Strategy based Va**ng Cessation 4 weeks

Each workshop includes pre-recorded lessons, handouts,
and a weekly live call 60-90 minutes as I’m compressing from.

The workshops count for 10CPD points each, based on minimum 12 hours content.

The workshops don’t just cover a “protocol”
because I take you through from the first phone call with the client all the way through 12 month follow up.

I’m considering, what is a fair price point?
Is $497 really too much
considering that a single smoking cessation client should cover the total and I’m offering a weekly payment plan of $50?

What would you pay for these 3 workshops?
Please share your thoughts and vote on price point.

Thank you.

Warning - Sophisticated Facebook Phishing Email

If you have a page for your business,
beware as you may receive the same email!

What would you do if you received an email from a premier law firm threatening you with international litigation?

Last week I noticed a legal email about a copyright infringement that referred to my The Hypno Coach page.

Intrigued, I checked it out, only to uncover that it's a sophisticated phishing email to get Facebook login details.

The email looks legitimate and unlike a lot of easy to spot, near obvious phishing emails, this one is very well written and include several convincing details. It refers to my page and contains a link that seemingly correctly refers to my page.

It has the look and feel that it's from a legal firm and pretends to be from Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP in the US. If you Google them, they are real.

This is where the danger lurks!

Legal - naturally we want to avoid legal issues.

Real details, your email address and your real page.

Nothing about this seems random.

A link that appears valid.

But I never blindly follow a link in an email that I'm not expecting!

So I checked out the real link - it's not to Facebook.

I explored what the link does - pretend to be a Facebook login page.

A very sophisticated attempt at phishing for Facebook login details!

I did a bit of searching and this email has been received by a lot of people already.

Beware!

The Weekend Challenge

Hypno-Haiku
Write a three-line haiku (5-7-5 syllables) that captures the essence of letting go of a habit.

You could keep it content free, or write something specifically for your niche.

Playing with poetry wakes up creative thinking and taps into the rhythm of language—just like a guided induction.


Example:
“Smoke fades into night
Breathing freedom dawns anew
Mind rises, soul light”

“Tension drifts away
Calm river flows deep within
Peace blooms every day”

“Old habits dissolve
New pathways spark with each breath
Change whispers softly”

What is a Haiku?

A haiku is a very short form of Japanese poetry that’s all about capturing a single moment or image in just three lines. Here’s what makes it special:
- Structure: Traditionally, a haiku has three lines of 5 – 7 – 5 syllables (15 syllables total).
- Imagery: It focuses on one clear picture or feeling—often drawn from nature or everyday life—to evoke a mood or insight.
- Simplicity: There’s no extra fluff—every word counts. The brevity encourages the reader to pause and reflect.
- Contrast or “cut”: In Japanese, a “kireji” (cutting word) creates a gentle break between two images or ideas; in English haiku we often achieve this with punctuation or a natural pause.

Because they’re so concise, haiku are perfect little creative exercises—ideal for sparking fresh perspectives or noticing small moments of wonder.

Have a fun creative weekend!

Do you like the Weekend Challenge?

I'm trying to make the fun but also useful.

Here goes.

The Micro-Meditation Master

Write a super-short guided meditation script (4–6 sentences)
you could read aloud in under a minute.

It might focus on breath, a quick body scan, or an empowering affirmation loop.

Don't cheat.
"Breath in, breath out, breath in, breath out, breath in, breath out, …" doesn't count. Ok.

Have fun!

Tiny Weekend Challenge

So here we are,
another weekend approaching us.

I had a productive week.
Also a week filled with gratefulness.
Grateful for the number of hypnotherapists
who joined me for my 3-Hour Ranking Workshop on Tuesday.

It's a joy to see hypnotherapists take action
to care for their business.

A business that isn't cared for.
is not sustainable,
and can't continue to help clients.

With more and more people needing access to hypnotherapist,
we need to take care of our business, don't we.

Here is the really tiny challenge for the weekend:

Think about, how do you take care of your business.
