The Million-Mile-An-Hour-Mind

Anyone else struggling with that? Your brain is churning over around 70,000 thoughts a day. That's more than 25M per year! And these thoughts can be positive - things we are looking forward to, grateful for, excited about, or negative - our worries, fears and stresses.

When our thoughts start to swing more predominantly towards the negative it becomes very easy to get caught in cycles of negative thinking. This can quickly overtake our conscious thought and lead to stress in our minds and bodies that can feed anxieties, physical problems (muscle tension, headaches, palpitations, etc), affect sleep, eating habits, behaviours and thinking.

Wouldn't it be lovely to give your mind a break? Slow it down and create a bit of space in which to breathe, put things into perspective and move off again in a more positive direction. This is where mindfulness comes in. You hear it a lot, that mindfulness is a great for mental wellbeing, but how do you do it and where do you start? Well, you can start here, today, with these simple instructions for a quick and simple calming of your internal environment provided, with thanks, by the wonderful team at Heart Mind Institute (info@heartmind.co).

Give it a go, what have you got to loose?

I will be sharing weekly mindfulness tips to help build up a toolkit of positive mental practices you can use as and when or build into a regular habit.

If you are struggling with stress, worry or anxiety don't do it alone. Free Discovery Calls available now to find out how Solution Focussed Hypnotherapy with me could help you get back on track.

Warmest wishes,
Kim

What real people say about hypnotherapy?

Sometimes it can be hard to make a decision to pursue change in a direction you don't know much about, whether that's moving house, changing jobs, starting a new relationship, or choosing a therapist.

So hearing what people, like you, have to say on the subject can offer that first glimpse of clarity and give you the confidence you need to make the first step. This is why I love to share reviews people leave for me, just like this most recent one from a wonderful client, Leanne.

When you're ready to find out more about your first step towards positive change, get in contact however you feel comfortable. I have free Discovery Call slots available for next week or you can jump straight in a book your first session: https://www.kimhypnotherapy.co.uk/book-online

Positive Thought. Positive Action. Positive Interaction

I'm always banging on about these 3Ps because it's so important to our mental wellbeing. The more of them you do on a daily basis the more spare capacity you give yourself in your stress bucket. The more spare capacity in your stress bucket the more easily to can deal with the daily stresses of life, put problems into perspective and live a happy and meaningful life.

Opportunities to work on your 3Ps come in all shapes and sizes and will be different for everybody. Find what works for you.

An opportunity for the art lovers amongst you: https://thebigcolytonartshow.co.uk/

If you are struggling at the moment or would like to find out more about the 3Ps, hypnotherapy or wellbeing, please don't hesitate to contact me however you feel comfortable. Free Discovery Calls available.

Do you ever crawl into bed exhausted, only for your brain to choose now to hit overdrive?

Replaying the day… worrying about tomorrow… feeling like your thoughts just won’t stop.

Popping down one rabbit hole after another.

You’re not alone. Many people find anxiety and worry shows up most strongly at night, leaving them restless and drained before the next day even begins.

💤 Hypnotherapy can help calm racing thoughts, ease your mind, and support more restful sleep.

💬 I offer a free 20-minute Discovery Call, no pressure, just a chance to chat about what you’re experiencing and whether hypnotherapy could be right for you.

👉Send me a quick WhatsApp from here or visit my website to book your free call today.

🌿 Where do you feature on your own list of priorities?

Life has a way of filling itself up with work, family, friends, endless responsibilities. It’s so easy to put ourselves at the very bottom of the list, telling ourselves we’ll find time “later.” But too often, later never comes.

The truth is, self-care isn’t selfish. It’s essential. When you feel good, confident, and recharged, everyone around you benefits too.

In my latest blog, I share why it matters to prioritise yourself (without guilt!) along with some simple self-care ideas you can try right now.

And if you’d like a little extra support in building self-care into your life, my September sessions are now open for booking.

Because when you take care of yourself, everybody wins. 💚

Life has a habit of filling itself up, doesn’t it? Work, children, caring for family, supporting friends, keeping the household running, volunteering, or being part of organisations… our days can feel like a never-ending “to-do” list. From the moment the alarm goes off until our head hits th...

Worth a little watch for today:

When you obsess over a text, your boss’s mood, or something a friend said… you’re giving your power away. You’re saying, “my worth depends on what someone else thinks of me.” No. That stops right now. A negative comment doesn’t have to make you feel negative about yourself. Your boss.....

Grief can feel incredibly isolating—even when you’re surrounded by people who care. Sometimes it’s just the quiet understanding of others who truly get it that makes the difference.

Whether your loss is recent or many years ago, it’s still hard. And you don’t have to face it alone.

There can be real comfort in simply being with others who are facing similar struggles—no expectations, no need to explain. If you’re feeling the weight of grief right now, something like this regular walk might be worth a try.

Sharing the flyer below in case it speaks to you—or someone you know.
