I took this picture this afternoon, whilst out for a walk to clear my head… At the moment, the natural world feels quiet and still… as if it’s waiting for spring to arrive 🌱.

The last few days have been rainy and windy, with storm clouds gathering, releasing their fury, and then slowly passing on. And sometimes, life feels just like that too.

We all experience the highs and the lows — the storms, the sunshine, and everything in between.

That’s often how anxiety can feel. Like being stuck in a dark storm you can’t escape. The familiar dread in the pit of your stomach, the racing heart, the nausea, the stomach gripes swirling like black storm clouds, the sleepless nights and 3am wake-ups. Withdrawing into yourself, feeling isolated and irritable. Even the simplest daily tasks can feel overwhelming, leaving you exhausted and defeated with a sense of futileness.

The phrase “this too shall pass” used to irritate me beyond belief. When you’re in the middle of a storm — mentally or physically — it can feel like an empty platitude, completely out of reach.

But there are ways out of anxiety. I know, because I’ve been there. And I know how much it can suck.

So, if you’re ready to step out of the storm… if you’re tired of the long, wakeful nights and would love to feel a little warmth and light again — please do get in touch. We don’t have to walk this path alone. And once you know the way, the journey becomes so much gentler 💛

Winter is meant to be a time for rest. For reflection. For slowing right down. ❄️
And yet… so often we do the opposite.

Straight off the back of the Christmas whirlwind (and all the stress that can come with it), we launch ourselves into unrealistic New Year’s resolutions. We join gyms, eat lettuce, and convince ourselves that once the last slice of Christmas cake is gone and the final glass of wine is poured, we’ll magically transform overnight into people who love salads in the coldest, darkest months of the year. 🙃

This year, though, I’ve chosen something different.

I’ve been leaning into wintering — resting, reflecting, and creating space for ideas to gently take shape. Like spring bulbs beneath the soil, quietly preparing to bloom. 🌱
A season for introspection, recalibration, renewal… and rest. Preparation, not pressure.

In a world that prizes relentless productivity, giving yourself permission to slow down in tune with the season feels almost deliciously rebellious.

There’s real wisdom in preserving your energy at this time of year. In allowing yourself the time and space to simply be.
(And yes — in eating big bowls of stew and dumplings if that’s what your body’s asking for. 🥣)

So if you’re tired of constantly pushing forward…
If you’re feeling burnt out…
If the anxiety treadmill seems never stopping….
If you need support to truly relax…
Or if you keep setting goals and struggle to reach them…

Get in touch and let’s explore how I can support you — in a gently, compassionately, winteringly supportive way. 🤍

Recovery & Hope

What Recovery from Burnout Really Looks Like

Recovery from burnout isn’t about bouncing back.
It’s about coming back differently.

It’s when you stop measuring your worth by how busy you are.
It’s giving yourself permission to rest without guilt.
It’s saying no — and realising that isn’t weakness, it’s self-respect.

At first, it feels strange.
You might still wake at 3 a.m.
You might still feel restless when your inbox is quiet.
But slowly, your body starts to trust calm again.

You begin to sleep deeply.
You wake without dread.
You think clearly, laugh more, breathe easier.
You start to feel present — at work, at home, and in your own skin.

That’s what real recovery looks like.
Not perfection. Not productivity.
Peace.

As a Clinical Hypnotherapist, NLP Trainer & Master Practitioner and Certified Coach, I’ve watched this transformation many times — and it always starts with one small, brave decision:
To stop pushing through and start listening inward.

If you’re ready to find that calm again, I’m here. Pop me a message, call or email 💚

The Hidden Signs of Burnout People Often Miss

Burnout doesn’t always arrive with a crash.
Most of the time, it creeps in quietly — hidden behind “I’m fine” and “just a busy week.”
Maybe some of this sounds familiar...
 You wake up in the night, your mind already running through tomorrow’s to-do list.
 You feel constantly behind — even when you’re getting things done.
 Little mistakes or feedback hit harder than they should.
 You can’t remember the last time you truly relaxed without guilt.

You tell yourself it’s temporary. That once things settle, you’ll feel better.
But the truth is… things never really settle.

This is what I call quiet burnout — when you’re still functioning, still performing, but slowly losing energy, joy, and confidence.

As a Clinical Hypnotherapist, NLP Trainer & Master Practitioner and Certified Coach, I see this all the time.
The people who look like they’re coping are often the ones who are closest to the edge.
If you recognise yourself in this, take it as a gentle nudge — not a criticism.
Pause. Breathe. Reach out before exhaustion turns into collapse.

You don’t have to wait until things fall apart to get support. 🌿

If this resonates, you can message me privately — or just leave a 💚 below to say “yes, this hits home.”

Do you suffer with insomnia? …

🏥 Insomnia and the Changing Seasons

😴 As the clocks go back each autumn, many of us notice our sleep patterns shift. Shorter days and earlier nights can make it difficult to maintain a steady sleep rhythm.
For some, this disruption lasts only a few nights — but for others, insomnia can become a persistent issue.
Maybe you find it hard to fall asleep? … or perhaps you drift off easily but wake up at 3am, staring at the clock, unable to get back to sleep?
That familiar cycle of frustration and anxiety can make it even harder to switch off — and before you know it, you’re dreading bedtime altogether. The effects of insomnia can be far reaching…
Chronic sleep deprivation can lead to:
🩺 A weakened immune system
⚖️ Weight gain
❤️ An increased risk of heart disease
🧠 Impaired memory, focus, and cognitive function
The frustration and anxiety surrounding poor sleep often make it worse, creating a cycle that feels impossible to break.
Hypnotherapy offers a gentle yet effective way to address the underlying causes of insomnia. By calming the mind and resetting your body’s natural sleep patterns, it can help you experience the deep, restorative rest you’ve been missing.
If you’re ready to wake feeling refreshed and rejuvenated, I invite you to get in touch to learn more about how hypnotherapy can help you achieve better sleep. 🌙

You Look Like You’re Coping — But Inside, You’re Running on Empty

I meet so many brilliant people who tell me, “I’m fine, just tired.”
But as we talk, it becomes clear they’re not fine at all — they’re quietly burning out.
Maybe you’ll recognise this…
You wake up at 3 a.m., mind racing before the day even begins.
Your phone pings and your chest tightens.
Emails, deadlines, messages — they never stop.
And even when you do stop, your mind doesn’t.

You keep smiling, keep showing up, keep saying yes — because that’s what capable people do.
But inside, you’re running on fumes.

The truth is, burnout doesn’t always look dramatic.
Sometimes it looks like being “high-functioning.”
Sometimes it looks like coping — until you can’t anymore.

I know, because I’ve been there – that was my story….

As a Clinical Hypnotherapist, NLP Trainer & Master Practitioner and Certified Coach, I help caring, capable professionals find their calm again — to sleep deeply, set boundaries that stick, and rebuild confidence without losing the success they’ve worked so hard for.
If any of this feels familiar, please know you’re not alone.
You don’t have to keep pushing through.
It’s okay to pause. It’s okay to ask for help.
You deserve to feel rested, grounded, and in control again.

🌿 If this resonates, drop me a message — or just leave a heart emoji below to say “me too.”

A lovely review from a hypnotherapy client this week - what great way to start the weekend 🥰.

I went to seek help from Steph after losing a lot of self confidence and became quite anxious after a bad experience in Hospital. I went to her feeling quite broken and very low but after her wonderful treatment and support I am now in a much better place and able to smile/ laugh again.
Without Steph’s help I really don’t know where I would be today.
Thank you doesn’t seem enough. ML
