The Butterfly Effect - Emotional Freedom Techniques & Hypnotherapy

12/01/2026

Think hypnotherapy is mind control? 🧠

Let's clear things up:

❌ MYTH: You lose control
✅ FACT: You're fully aware and in charge

❌ MYTH: Only weak people need it
✅ FACT: It takes strength to seek support

❌ MYTH: It's just relaxation
✅ FACT: It rewires neural pathways

Your brain can change at any age. Neuroplasticity isn't just for kids!

What's the biggest myth you've heard about hypnotherapy?

INTRODUCTION TO INSIGHT PRACTICE

If you’re keen on taking your mindfulness meditation to the next level and gaining a deeper understanding of yourself, then insight meditation might be just what you need.

We're starting small group teaching sessions in late July and August this year, especially for those who are new to insight meditation.

The sessions will be held online using Zoom, with groups of no more than 3 people. This allows for a more flexible and personalised approach to learning.

If you’re interested in joining us, just drop Peter Wilkes a line at peterwilkes239@gmail.com

We'd love to have you join us and explore the benefits of insight meditation with Dr Peter Wilkes of the Glen Mindfulness Group and colleagues from the Highland Mindfulness Group.
