"The purpose of our lives is to be happy"

This might seem like a meaningless cliche but there is actually hard science to back up the benefits of happiness and the impact it has on the rest of the world.

When we are happy our brain is flooded with feel good hormones like serotonin, dopamine and oxytocin. These all make us feel good in the moment but they also have huge benefit to our brains ability to function at it's best.

When we have these chemicals in our brain it works faster, it's better at problem solving, it's more creative in the solutions it finds, as well as being more motivated to carry out our solutions.

So when we are happy and flooding our brain with these positive chemicals it means that whatever task or purpose we are working towards our brain is supporting us to do it at it's best.

And when we are working at our best everyone around us feels the benefit!

So it is well worth cultivating happiness in our lives as a way of achieving success in whatever our life's purpose is :-)

Can't get to sleep at night?

Still tired in the morning?

Would you love to wake up in the morning feeling refreshed and restored and ready for your day?

I often hear my clients telling me that they just aren’t great sleepers, and they are always surprised when I tell them it doesn’t have to be that way!

1 in 3 of us don't get enough sleep. But it's not just about the amount of sleep we get, it's about the quality of sleep we get too.

We do two things when we sleep - we restore our minds and our bodies. But if our sleep patterns are out of whack our sleep is no longer restorative and mental and physical exhaustion sets in.

But the good news is a few sessions of solution focused hypnotherapy can improve your sleep patterns helping you to feel refreshed , restored and ready to enjoy your day!

To find out how hypnotherapy can help you feel rested and refreshed every morning, get in touch today and book your FREE initial consultation.

"You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream"

Infact setting new goals and working towards new dreams is a great way to keep our brain fit and healthy as we age!

As we fire up our brain with new ideas and plans, and take actions to work towards something our brain is flooded with a cocktail of beneficial chemicals like serotonin and dopamine which are all hugely beneficial to the long term health of our brain!

"Your speed doesn't matter, forward is forward"

When working towards a goal or an outcome it can be so easy to compare our progress to others, to see how much better, or faster they are progressing and to beat ourselves up for not being good enough.

And whilst some things in life have deadlines attached to them, many of our timelines are self imposed giving us the opportunity to appreciate each small step taken and remember to enjoy the journey along the way!

Is low confidence holding you back?

Do you regularly doubt yourself and feel you aren't good enough?

Are you ready to live your life feeling confident and in control?

My clients often tell me that lack of confidence and low self-esteem is holding them back and getting in the way of them living the life they want.

Sometimes they’d like more confidence at work, or to feel more confident socialising. But often the change they are looking for is to be able to feel that they are good enough and doing their best, regardless of the situation they are in.

The great news is just a few sessions of solution focused hypnotherapy can increase your confidence and self-esteem helping you to get your life back on track!

If you would like to find out how solution-focused hypnotherapy can help you to Get Better, Cope Better, and Be Better, get in touch today to book your FREE initial consultation.

✈️ Fear of flying this summer? You’re definitely not alone and it's possible to feel calm and in control.

With summer holidays in full swing, I just wanted to post this in case it helps anyone locally.

If you get anxious just thinking about flying, whether it’s the build-up, take-off, turbulence, or feeling out of control, I completely understand. It’s one of the most common phobias I help people with, and it can really get in the way of holidays, family events or work travel.

I’m a qualified Solution Focused Hypnotherapist based here in Aylesbury Vale, and I offer a calm, forward-focused approach that helps retrain the brain’s response to the fear and anxiety of flying. No need to dwell on past experiences, we focus on how you want to feel instead.

Many people tell me they notice a real difference after just a few sessions and are finally able to take their first flight in years.

🟡 I offer a free 60-minute consultation

🟢 Local and online appointments available

🔒 Friendly, confidential, and professional

If this sounds like something you or someone you know might benefit from, feel free to message me directly or drop a comment below, happy to answer any questions 💬

Wishing everyone safe and calm travels this summer,

– Marina

"Be kind to yourself"

We are often much quicker to show kindness to others than we are to ourselves.

Even in simple things like saying thank you, and giving compliments.

When was the last time you thanked yourself or gave yourself a compliment?

Why is this important?

Research in to the neuroscience of self-compassion shows us that when we show kindness to ourselves it decreases activity in the areas of our brain that process stress and negative emotions, lowering our levels of stress, anxiety and depression.

I wonder how you will show kindness to yourself this week?
