Trust me you’ll notice it. 🤍

Keep going until you feel the shift. Because you will.

Your mind is always listening.
It believes the stories you repeat the most.

So let’s choose a better one.
Let’s change the message.

Happy Sunday ☀️

🌸 Spring has officially arrived and is it any coincidence that it also brings ?

☀️ There’s something about sunshine that naturally lifts your mood.
That’s because sunlight helps boost your serotonin levels - the hormone linked to happiness, calm, and emotional balance.

It’s also why the darker winter months can feel heavier, with many people experiencing Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) when daylight is limited. But now, with longer, brighter days (and that extra hour of evening light from next Sunday 🙌), nature is gently inviting us to feel lighter too.

😃 Higher serotonin levels can support a greater sense of calm, contentment, and overall wellbeing all whilst helping to reduce feelings of anxiety and low mood.

So today, take a few mindful moments… step outside, take a walk, pause in the sunshine, and allow yourself to soak in a little Spring happiness.

I’d love to hear from you - where have you been soaking up the sunshine this afternoon ?

✨ Swipe for some happiness inspo…

Leaving you a reminder... Keep talking to yourself!

🤍 I believe that each of my clients already has the resources to solve their problem. They just don't realise it when we first meet.

So remember...

You are the EXPERT of YOU

Super article written by one of my colleagues and Supervisee’s.

Emetophobia, or the fear of vomiting, can be distressing. Hypnotherapist Alexandra Gibson explains how anxiety patterns develop and how hypnotherapy may help. ⬇️ http://ow.ly/eUPp106vUKM

A super read from Clinical & Mindful Therapy School. Thank you.

Hypnosis is the trance state we use in hypnotherapy. Hypnotherapy is the therapeutic session as a whole.

The trance state is a state of focused attention. You might recognise it from being absorbed in a good book… lost in music… or being so absorbed in a hobby that you lose track of time.

In these moments, your attention narrows and the usual mental ‘chatter’ in our minds quietens down.

Neuroscience reflects this too. Studies suggest reduced activity in areas that are linked to self-monitoring, alongside an increased focus and with a stronger connection between attention and imagination. So, in simple terms, in trance our mind becomes more engaged with what it’s focusing on… and less distracted by everything else.

Importantly, you’re not out of control in trance, you’re aware, you can choose what to engage with, and you can stop at any time.

Hypnosis is simply the skill of using this state in a helpful way… to rehearse new patterns, shift perspective, and to support changes you want to make.

So the interesting question is… if your mind can focus like this already… what might you be able to do with it, on purpose?

If you’re curious about how hypnotherapy might help, you’re very welcome to get in touch.

I’m often known for my specialist work with food and the PEACE Programme™️ - and that’s true…

But it’s not the only way I support people.

I also work with clients who feel stuck in life, helping them reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and move beyond fears or limiting beliefs that are holding them back.

Sometimes we just need a little support to find our way forward again.

You don’t have to do it alone.

If you’re struggling and would like support, feel free to reach out.

This is the reason that I found solution focused hypnotherapy. What started as a self healing intention became my career. Well, if it could help me, I guessed I may just be able to help other people too.
So over 10 years on, I don’t have panic attacks any more and have helped 1000s if inspiring people to build better futures. What a privilege. Thank you for trusting in me🥰

Sleep problems often start in the mind as much as the body.

Hypnotherapy works with the subconscious to calm the nervous system, ease racing thoughts, and support healthier sleep patterns – helping sleep feel more natural again. 🌙
