Love this: Exercise is my anti-depressant, anti-anxiety, anti-stress.

I get that release feeling after foam rolling my back at the gym - after stretching my spine. Aaaaaaaah! 🥹🤤

Exercise in
Stress out
Motivation turned up.
(I used to hate working out 🤭.)

No matter how I feel, I exercise every morning because it sets up my day.
I feel good. I feel energised. And at 60 going on 61, it keeps everything maintained like machinery. (Otherwise, it might seize up! 😆)

Tony Robbins says that movement equals motivation.

Even a short walk can clear the mind and allow ideas to pop in.

Have a great day!

Healing insight: Control often feels
like safety to insecure people.

You may know someone like this.
Consider that it is a type of anxiety.
If it is over the top, encourage them to talk with someone.

A big thank you to Currumbin RSL and Vikings Surf Club for a truly epic Dawn Ceremony at Elephant Rock, Currumbin Beach.

Despite the weather, the turnout was amazing. The drone footage on the screen was worthy of a tourist video.

When the life savers took the wreaths out into the ocean to release them, it was an iconic and beautiful honouring of the Anzacs.

The sun came up to bagpipes and eventually the Last Post. I cry every, single, time. The bagpipes give me the goosebumps and so do the NZ and Australian National Anthems.

Now that it is over the heavens have opened. Thank you, God, for holding back the weather.

The only thing I miss are the spitfires flying overhead. But fuel shortages I think have stopped that tradition this year.

The video should be online on Instagram and The Today Show.

Lest we forget.

Last night, I worked with a client on procrastination. The method I used was NLP Submodalities:

The idea was to change the usual statements in the mind that stop him from following through on tasks and working for success, rather than the bare minimum.

He had started several projects that were unfinished.

Submodalities 4 step process break-down:
1. Negative Event (Procrastinating at his desk) to...
2. Something that was true but isn't anymore: Being in the navy
3. The scenario he did want (instead of the one that occurred): Pushing through and getting it done.
4. Something he was 100% certain of... (The Sun coming up tomorrow).

I map these across using the brain's representations of these four events.

So, normally, my client would have internal chatter about procrastinating, but instead, I have reprogrammed his mind to have thoughts like, 'Get it done!' (Like in the navy) We changed the meta information around.

Now, my client can move on with his life and focus on his career, and creating his new projects.

Awesome work.

I love it when that happens.
Love my job 👍😃💓

It energises me and makes me do the hands up 'woohoo' noise 🤷‍♂️. That is my success pose. I also got a few hugs. Awwww...

Is there a cure for a broken heart? Yes, time and NLP Submodalities

I had a client today for NLP. She wanted to book in for Hypnotherapy, but I advised her to book in for NLP instead.

What was her issue? She was ruminating on a break-up. She had tried counselling and psychology. Nothing worked. She couldn't get over the betrayal and couldn't stop her negative spiralling. It was affecting her job, her health, and losing her friends. She was a nervous wreck.

Submodalities 4 step process break-down:
1. Negative Event to...
2. Something that was true but isn't anymore.
3. The scenario she did want (instead of the one that occurred) to...
4. Something she was 100% certain of... (Sun coming up tomorrow).

I map these across using the brain's representations of these four things.

Eventually, all the brain can find when it tries to think of a cheating ex is the sun coming up. We changed the meta information around.

Now, my client can move on with her life and focus on her career and well-being.

Why didn't I use hypnotherapy?
Because it often takes a few sessions. And sometimes people are too stressed to relax. Moreover, this client had prolonged her misery but seeking talk therapy with therapists who had no real solutions for her, which just made her feel more like a victim. She needed change ...STAT!

NLP Submodalities is a 2 hour session.

I love a happy ending.
😍
Don't you?

I love my job.

The signage is going up this year. (Thrower's Bridge, Currumbin) Yah!

I feel that people need their rituals and important dates more than ever. Life is certainly testing us all right now.

A client said to me yesterday that he feels a light sense of depression everywhere. There is more road rage and rudeness. Parents at schools are swearing at each other over car parks. The stress has increased ten-fold. It's like the covid ptsd never went away, and now we have cost of living / petrol prices ptsd. 🙄

Did you know that in the last week, all the EV cars on the GC sold out? It's hardly surprising!

So be kind to yourself this week. Keep up your schedules and take care of your mental well-being. Balance it with exercise, fresh air, alone time. Rest from screens (and bad news). Rest of all kinds.

I meditate, work out 5 times a week, and go out in nature. Living in Currumbin helps.

So, feel free to book in this week if you need a cuppa and a chat. OK?

Anzac Day is this coming Friday.
See you at Currumbin Beach at dawn.
Mwah!

Ps. The spitfires flying overhead always give me goosebumps, and I love the bagpipes, too. Always have.

15/04/2026

The collapsing anchors technique is an NLP method to neutralise unwanted negative emotions by simultaneously creating a stronger positive anchor than the original negative (triggering) anchor, forcing the brain to reconcile conflicting states. By merging the states, it causes the negative response to diminish, replacing it with a more neutral or positive feeling.

What is it used for?
✅️ Replacing Negative Emotions: Getting rid of unwanted feelings such as fear, anger, frustration, anxiety, or sadness.
✅️ Neutralizing Triggers: Breaking conditioned responses, such as feeling nervous when experiencing a specific situation.
✅️ Performance Enhancement: Eliminating performance anxiety, stage fright, or self-doubt before presentations or sales calls.
✅️ Changing Bad Habits: Disrupting unwanted behavioural patterns by introducing a more resourceful emotional state.
✅️ Reducing Stress: Managing high-stress situations by immediately accessing a calm, secure state. 

Ghita used Stacking and Collapsing Anchors NLP techniques for a client with a fear of public speaking, which was a compulsory part of her nursing course. Here is her Google Review:

Ghita was so helpful in overcoming my past traumas. My self-worth and my fear of public speaking are improving with the techniques she shared. Ghita is
passionate in helping me with my issues. I am grateful I've met you, Ghita. I hope you will be able to help more people. Thank you so much for all your help. You are a blessing.

Tip: Not suitable for severe traumas or phobias. Time Line Therapy is better for that.

Hello Anger! What are you protecting me from?

Anger tells us a lot about ourselves.
It is secondary, though: Underneath anger lies sadness, guilt, embarrassment, shame, hurt, grief, envy, protection of identity, etc...

So next time you are angry, to lower your fight or flight response, say this...

1. A part of me is angry right now.
2. Something is being protected.
What is it?
3. Hello, anger program. What are you protecting me from?
