It’s World mental health day today.
I’m one client away from finishing a busy week helping clients to look after their own mental health and wellbeing. To protect my own, I don’t work late on a Friday night as I do during the week, so that gives me time to fully unwind, relax and refresh for the next week. Yes I catch up on ‘life admin’ as we all have to, but I also ensure I do some of the things that make me feel good, even when I feel that I don’t have the time (normally the most important time to do something just for you, as you need it more than ever!)
Looking after your own mental health is an ongoing thing, not something you can just pay attention to when things go a bit wonky!
When I work with clients we don’t just ‘treat the problem’ we look at all aspects of your life, what’s going well, what we’d like to achieve, and how the mind works so that we can maintain the changes achieved through therapy long into the future.
Looking after yourself is a necessity, not an afterthought. ❤️

My favourite word of the day! Equanimity.
I’ve just used it in a session as a kind of hypnotic anchor to the feelings that they want to experience - they have a big week next week work wise.

Another great story in the press on how effective hypnotherapy can be for treating fears and phobias.
Not me - but solution focused, so trained to tackle phobias in the same way that I have been, delivering life changing results.

For most of us wasps are just annoying, but when you have a phobia, you go into to full fight or flight mode. It can really ruin the summer months.

Being able to be calm around something that once petrified me is one of the greatest things I have ever been taught

Even the sceptics love hypnotherapy once they understand how the mind works and experience the power of hypnosis. I’d love to take full credit for client’s achievements, but I’m just allowing them the space to work things out for themselves in their own way, in their own time, at their own pace, and to help to quieten a busy mind.
Our minds are great at working things out and making positive change when they are given the right opportunity in a safe space, and can explore possibilities.
Even after 13 years in this business, it never fails to amaze me how well clients respond.

When you get a last minute cancellation on the hottest day of the year so far! ‘No problem at all! See you next week!’ ……. As she skips out of the door door a walk on the beach ❤️
Sometimes cancellations aren’t all bad!
Back to it now - so enjoy the sunshine and the first day of spring!

We don’t always have to dig about in the past to heal, to grow, to thrive! We just need to focus on getting better and what we’d like to achieve, how we’d like to manage things better, the future, and allowing ourselves to heal.

For whoever needs to hear this, and is struggling with letting go of things they feel that they could have handled differently in the past… REMEMBER- you did the best that you could, with the tools that you had at that time.

We can always look back at things through the lens that we now possess, and beat ourselves up over things that we wish we’d done differently.
Just STOP, and THINK, what have I learned from this? Be at peace with it and yourself, learn to forgive yourself (and others) and let it slip (respectfully) back into the past where it belongs. It doesn’t need to have power over the wonderful you that exists now.

We live, we learn, and we grow, and we change constantly throughout our lives.

Is it time to close that chapter?

Just a little message from me.

I know for many of you it’s been a tough year, but thank you for trusting me with supporting you through those tougher times.

I’d like to thank you for your commitment to wanting positive change and working hard to achieve the results that you have.

Many at this time of year like to reflect on all the things that they have achieved, but if just getting through the year has been your aim, you are nearly there! And that really is enough!

As the new year approaches have a think of what no longer serves you well, what you’d like to let go of, and invite something new into you’re your life that you’d like to achieve in 2025. This may be a sense of calm, love, forgiveness, motivation, a sense of hope, more time spent on yourself and your own improvement (instead of just making sure that everyone else’s needs are met.)

Whatever the new year brings, may it be a peaceful and happy one.
