✨ The Importance of Autonomy, Being Seen and Heard, and Speaking Your Truth ✨

As human beings, one of our deepest needs is autonomy, the freedom to make choices that feel right for us and to live in alignment with our own values. Autonomy isn’t about isolation or selfishness, it’s about honouring our individuality, our voice, and our right to decide what supports our wellbeing. Without autonomy, we can feel powerless, suppressed, or as though we’re living a life designed by someone else.

Before I became confident enough to speak my truth I experienced this.

Equally important is the need to be seen and heard. To have our thoughts, feelings, and experiences acknowledged, without judgment, minimisation, or dismissal. When someone truly listens and validates us, it reminds us that our inner world matters. This validation is essential for self-worth, connection, and healing.

Our feelings are always valid. Emotions aren’t right or wrong, good or bad, they are simply information. They are the body and mind’s way of expressing what is happening inside. When we deny or suppress them, we create inner conflict. When we accept them, we open the door to understanding, compassion, and growth.

This is why toxic positivity can be so harmful. Being told to “just be positive” or “look on the bright side” often dismisses the complexity of what we are experiencing. While optimism has its place, skipping over pain, grief, or struggle doesn’t make them disappear, it can leave us feeling unseen and silenced. True healing comes from acknowledging the whole spectrum of our emotions, not bypassing them.

That’s why it’s so important to speak your truth. Expressing yourself honestly, even if it feels uncomfortable or vulnerable, is an act of self-respect and self-empowerment. Speaking your truth allows others to meet you where you are, not where they think you should be. It also creates space for deeper connection, because authenticity invites authenticity.

🌿 Remember:
• Your autonomy matters.
• Your voice deserves to be heard.
• Your feelings are valid.
• You do not need to silence yourself with forced positivity.
• And your truth is always worth speaking.

Dear Everyone,

I just want to say a heartfelt thank you for joining and sharing our Hypno Meditation and Sound evening on Friday 29th August. It was such a special space to be in, and I truly hope you enjoyed the session as much as I did.

Your presence helped create the beautiful energy we all shared, and I would be so grateful if you could share any feedback or reviews about your experience. Your thoughts mean a lot to me and also help others feel inspired to join in the future.

Thank you once again for being part of the evening. I look forward to welcoming you again soon.

With gratitude,
Jane 💚

💫 Are you aligned, or are you forcing?
We’ve all felt both sides — hustling without balance, comparing ourselves to others… versus working with joy, listening to intuition, and trusting the process.
👉 Which signs do you notice most in your own journey right now?

A beautiful example I always use when it’s raining 🌿of reframing a thought by shifting the perspective.

Instead of “Oh no its raining out”
“How wonderful it is we have rain. Our trees, plants and wildlife need rain to survive.”

In Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), this is often called cognitive restructuring or reframing. Here are some everyday examples you could use to illustrate the approach:

Examples of CBT Thinking Shifts
1. Negative thought: “I made a mistake at work. I’m useless.”
Reframe: “I made a mistake, but mistakes are opportunities to learn and grow.”
2. Negative thought: “I’ll never get everything done today.”
Reframe: “I’ll do what I can today and that will be enough. Tomorrow is another chance.”
3. Negative thought: “I don’t want to exercise, it’s too hard.”
Reframe: “Moving my body will give me more energy and help me feel better.”
4. Negative thought: “This traffic is a nightmare.”
Reframe: “This is extra time to listen to music, a podcast, or just breathe.”
5. Negative thought: “People must think I’m awkward.”
Reframe: “Most people are focused on themselves, not judging me. I’m human, just like everyone else.”
6. Negative thought: “I failed at that, I can’t do it.”
Reframe: “That attempt didn’t work out, but it showed me what I can try differently next time.”
7. Negative thought: “I’m so anxious, I can’t cope.”
Reframe: “Feeling anxious means my body is alert, it’s a signal, not a sign of weakness. I can manage this.”
8. Negative thought: “I hate waiting in line.”
Reframe: “This is a moment to pause and practice patience or mindfulness.”
9. Negative thought: “It’s raining, what a miserable day.”
Reframe: “The rain nourishes the earth, cleans the air, and brings freshness.”
10. Negative thought: “I’m not good enough.”
Reframe: “I don’t have to be perfect. I’m doing my best, and that is enough.”

✨ In short, CBT helps us catch unhelpful thoughts, challenge them, and gently shift them toward a healthier, more balanced perspective.

On a personal level, at age 37 I experienced a complete mental breakdown. It was one of the most difficult and overwhelming times of my life, but it also became the turning point in my healing journey. Through Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Hypnotherapy, I was able to begin unravelling the thought patterns I had carried and believed from childhood into adulthood, the ones that no longer served me, and were most definitely not truthful.

Step by step, I learnt how to change my thinking, release old beliefs, and create new ways of viewing myself and the world around me. Today, I use these tools daily, and they allow me to live a much freer, healthier, and more balanced life.

💜 CBT reframing is not about denying or trivialising very real pain, especially grief, trauma, or loss. It’s about creating healthier perspectives where it’s appropriate, but also honouring emotions that are valid and deeply human.

Here’s how we could add that:

Important Note on Grief and Life’s Challenges.

While CBT helps us shift unhelpful everyday thoughts, it’s not about pretending that painful experiences aren’t painful. Grief, loss, and trauma are real, valid, and extremely difficult to live with.

Reframing in these moments doesn’t mean “looking on the bright side” or minimising what has happened. Instead, it’s about:
• Allowing yourself to fully feel grief and sadness, without judgement.
• Recognising that grief is a natural response to love and loss.
• Finding gentle thoughts that support healing, such as:
• “This pain shows how deeply I loved.”
• “It’s okay to move through this at my own pace.”
• “Even in grief, moments of peace and connection are possible.”

So in short: CBT can help with everyday thought patterns, but grief must be met with compassion, validation, and space.

The Importance of Balance in the Body 💪

When we move, train, or play sports, our muscles are constantly working to support us. Any form of weight-bearing exercise, whether that’s lifting in the gym, running, or even practicing a sport, naturally causes the muscles to contract and tighten. This contraction is essential for strength and power, but without balance, it can also create stiffness, restriction, and even discomfort over time.

Sometimes when we experience pain in the body, it isn’t just the joints or bones, it can be due to nerves becoming compressed or irritated by over-contracted muscles. When the muscles are tight and shortened, they can trap or press on nerves, creating pain or discomfort that may radiate or feel sharp.

This is why it’s so important to counteract contraction with lengthening. Stretching and mindful mobility work help restore balance by allowing the muscles to release, elongate, and regain flexibility. As the muscles lengthen, space is created, relieving pressure on nerves and helping to alleviate pain.

When muscles have both strength and length, the whole body benefits, joints move more freely, fascia remains supple, and your overall posture and movement patterns improve. Finding that balance is key to long-term muscle, joint, nerve, and fascia health. 💚

Three spaces left for tomorrow evening🌟

Reconnect with Your Inner Child: Hypno Meditation & Sound Healing Evening 🌟

Join us for a deeply healing evening designed to help you reconnect with your inner child, release old wounds, and invite profound self-compassion and joy back into your life.

✨ What to Expect:

Before we settle into stillness for our hypnomeditation, we’ll begin the evening with some gentle, mindful movement, designed to release stagnant energy, open up the body, and prepare the nervous system for deep healing.

This is not about stretching or exercise in the traditional sense, it’s about tuning in, softening, and allowing your energy to flow freely once more. Through slow, intentional movements, breath awareness, and gentle mobilisation, we begin to clear what’s been held in the body, tension, emotion, stress, so that we can drop into a deeper state of relaxation and inner connection.

This opening practice invites you to reconnect with your body, awaken your senses, and step into the present moment. It’s a beautiful way to transition from the busyness of the day into a nurturing, soothing space of stillness and self-investment.

We follow with a guided Hypno Meditation journey to meet and nurture your inner child, a gentle but powerful practice to soothe past hurts, rediscover your playful spirit, and restore emotional balance. This process can help you release limiting beliefs and bring more self-love and freedom into your everyday life.

Following the meditation, allow yourself to fully relax and integrate the healing experience with Sound Therapy, featuring crystal singing bowls. These beautiful, resonant sounds help to realign your energy centres, balancing and opening your chakras so that energy can flow freely throughout your body. Let the soothing frequencies wash over you, calming your nervous system, deepening relaxation, and restoring harmony to mind, body, and spirit.

💫 Benefits of this evening:
🌱 Emotional healing and release
🧡 Increased self-compassion and acceptance
🎨 Awakening creativity and playfulness
🕊️ Deep relaxation and stress relief
🔮 Realignment and balancing of your chakras
✨ Enhanced sense of inner peace and wellbeing

No experience needed, just bring an open heart.

🕰️ 7.30-9.30pm
