Michelle Y Wakerell - Hypnotherapy for Change Helping you to make the changes that you want to make to live your best life!

Hello there,
My name is Michelle Wakerell and I am a qualified, registered and accredited Counsellor, Psychotherapist and Clinical Hypnotherapist. Perhaps the greatest battle we face in life is the one within ourselves, however we can win that battle......a life beyond the limitations of fear and self doubt. I have come to understand over the years that we all have amazing potential and untapped resources within us to make the changes we want. All we need is an open mind, willingness to learn and the courage to try new ways of thinking and behaving. I am blessed to be able to both live and work from my beautiful wee “off-grid” cottage on the side of a mountain in the stunning West Highlands of Scotland. Because of this, I am able to offer therapy that is as flexible as I am, and as unique as you are. Your therapy will either be from my cottage, or out amongst the beauty that surrounds us, or a combination of the both. Alternatively you may prefer to work from the comfort of your own home online with me - many clients find this more convenient as they do not have to consider the cost or time involved in travelling - this has allowed me to work with clients from around the world. You really can live a healthier and happier life............

Most of us enjoy a glass or two of our favourite tipple, but did you know that drinking alcohol substantially increases your risk of developing cancer, including but not limited to cancers of the mouth (oral cavity), throat (pharynx), and voice box (larynx), Esophageal Cancer, Bowel Cancer, Liver Cancer and Breast Cancer.

Alcohol also has many other detrimental effects on our bodies eg reducing its ability to process and absorb nutrients, weight gain, liver damage, aging and overall body fatigue.

Often people think that they are not drinking enough to be at risk, however studies have shown that even light drinking can be linked to cancer.

So, in a nutshell, if you drink - you are increasing your risk for developing cancer amongst other things.

However, there is also good news - because as soon as you cut back (or stop) - you are then decreasing that risk.

Making that change can be easier than you
think ❤️

Life can often toss you down and make you fall out of the blue, but the hope you keep inside of you will pick you up again and again.

Hope helps make the changes possible - and change can be easier than you think ❤️

I'm a great advocate of mindfulness - I share it with my clients, and also use it regularly myself.

When being mindful and "in the moment" we narrow our attention to the task in hand - closing off from that which is going on around us.
When we do this and stay in the moment - we stop thinking about the past or future - and are able to not feel anxious.

However, if you struggle with being "mindful" here is something completely opposite - which also stops anxiety.

Anxiety is usually triggered or continued with our internal dialogue.

Pick a spot to stare at and then soften your focus.
Now slowly begin to expand your peripheral vision to include all the space around the spot.
Keep your eyes on the spot and continue to expand your vision even further to the sides including up to the ceiling and down to the floor.
Expand it even more so that you can imagine now becoming aware of the space behind you.
Bring your attention back to the spot to finish.

To begin with this may feel a little strange, but after practicing a few times, you will notice a feeling of calmness coming over both your mind and body as you notice your internal dialogue has stopped.

I use it with my clients who have anxiety because it quickly allows them to move awareness from the inside where there is their internal chatter, to the outside where there is none.

The beauty of it is that it can be done at anytime and anywhere - and nobody need know you are doing it ❤️

Many irritations in relationships are when one person thinks the other should be doing or seeing things their way.

You can make your own point however still keep the peace by working on the way you approach certain conversations.
Try saying something along the lines of "We are both right and we are both wrong, we see things differently because we are different people - and that's okay”.

Whilst you may be together in a relationship - you are not the same person, with the same thoughts, feelings, belief’s, expectations and behaviours.

You are unique individual beings sharing your lives ❤️

You were not born with low self-esteem……..and you do not need to go through life with beliefs that hold you back!

Let the changes begin today ❤️

I am not going to lie - anxiety is horrible - it's debilitating - and isolating.

It can dictate the way that we live - and what we do.

However, it's also important to remember that a small amount of anxiety in the right circumstances is actually good for us because it protects us.

It becomes a problem when it grows arms and legs, it can then become life changing - and not in a good way.

Imagine living your life just as you want without anxiety holding you back - I can help you make that change - and change can be easier than you think ❤️
