Green Leaf Hypnotherapy with Jenn Thongtan

Green Leaf Hypnotherapy with Jenn Thongtan I help women journeying through perimenopause and menopause release old masks and embrace this life stage with ease, clarity, and confidence.

I will guide you to trust yourselves again, shed what no longer serves you, and equip you with inner resources. I am a fully qualified Clinical Hypnotherapist based in Lancing, West Sussex. Through Green Leaf Hypnotherapy, I offer one-to-one sessions online to help you overcome challenges like anxiety, stress, low confidence, and unwanted habits. My approach is calm, supportive, and focused on helping you build lasting change using practical tools you can carry forward in life. Whether you're ready to let go, move forward, or simply feel more like yourself again—I'm here to help. I started in restaurants in the UK and had my own Health Cafe in Thailand before returning to the UK and pursuing a career in the Health Industry. I am often found on the beach or walking on the South Downs with my dog to keep my mind, body and soul energised.

Brain fog in perimenopause can feel unsettling. Like your sharpness has disappeared overnight.
But often, it’s not a loss of ability, it’s a nervous system under pressure.
When stress hormones rise and blood sugar fluctuates, focus naturally dips.
Supporting the body with protein, hydration, and healthy fats creates stability.
And through hypnotherapy, we gently guide the mind back to calm, allowing clarity to resurface in its own time.

Imagine your thoughts flowing again.
�Easier. Softer. Clear.

You’re not losing yourself.
�You’re recalibrating.

Save this if you’ve had a “why did I walk in here?” moment lately.

Perimenopause Migraines are Real

Hormonal Sensitivity
Many women notice migraines:
* Before or during their period
* During perimenopause
* With hormonal fluctuations

When your system is overloaded.
Hydrate the body.
Understand your triggers.
Then gently ask…
What am I bracing against?
Hypnotherapy helps you soften the bracing.
You’re not dramatic.
You’re overloaded.

Support:
* Track your cycle for 3 months
* Note sleep + stress around migraine days
* Prioritise magnesium (if appropriate for you)
* Protect sleep before hormonal dips
Patterns reduce fear. Fear increases tension.

Migraines often sit at the crossroads of hormones, stress and nervous system overload.

External triggers matter.
Internal triggers matter too.
CBT helps you challenge catastrophic thinking.
NLP shifts conditioned stress responses.
Hypnotherapy teaches the body to feel safe again.
Because sometimes it’s not the light itself 
it’s how tightly the system is holding.
Relief begins when we soften the response.

If migraines visit around cycle shifts or perimenopause, you’re not imagining it.
Hormones amplify sensitivity.
Stress lowers the threshold.
Body support: hydration, mineral balance, trigger tracking.
Inner support: retraining how your system reacts to perceived threat.

Through hypnotherapy/NLP/CBT techniques we:
✨ Reduce anticipatory stress and lower hyper-vigilance
✨ Calm anticipatory anxiety and calm the nervous system response
✨ Reframe internal triggers and unlink old stress patterns
✨ Build resilience instead of bracing and increase neurological flexibility

Your brain can learn a new pattern.

And when it does, intensity often changes.
Not by force.
By safety.
Migraines aren’t weakness.

They’re a sensitive nervous system asking for relief.
Yes to hydration.
Yes to tracking triggers.
And also…
What if the trigger isn’t just the light, the food, the hormone shift but the pressure around it?

When the subconscious feels safer, the body softens.
You don’t just manage migraines.
You retrain your response to them.

Spoke at a wonderful monthly event Worthing Menopause Matters organised by Rachel Boon The Naturopath Herbalist and Lisa at Yes You Can Gym Worthing

Free event to highlight and empower women living through menopausal transition.

Guest Speakers and community to show women are stronger together to hear, listen, witness and share the challenges.

Thank you to the women who joined in the conversation!

Key takeaways:
Relaxation is foundational for accessing the subconscious and benefiting from hypnotherapy.

Self-awareness through tracking and journaling helps regulate emotional reactions and manage menopause symptoms.

Hypnotherapy provides practical tools for symptom management, emotional regulation, and personal empowerment.

Regular practice (even five minutes a day) can significantly reduce stress and improve well-being.

Community and sharing enhance the process; group work is as valuable as one-to-one.

You are in control: Hypnotherapy is about empowering individuals to access their own resources and wisdom.

Wait…. Or… is this just hormones talking?
The luteal phase can make your inner critic LOUD.�But loud doesn’t mean true.
In perimenopause, hormone shifts amplify self-doubt.�That doesn’t mean you’re failing.

Perimenopause doesn’t create a broken woman.�It amplifies the critic.�Your job isn’t to silence her perfectly.�Turn the volume down on the critic.
Turn up the voice that remembers who you are. 🤍

I’ll show you how - follow for more or DM INNERCRITIC

Low Mood in perimenopause
If today feels heavy… this is for you.

Low mood often needs rest, not pressure.�Your subconscious responds well to images of safety and hope.
That future version of you already exists.

You don’t need to feel better yet… just stay with this.

Low mood softens when we stop fighting it.�Your subconscious listens to images, warmth, and reassurance.
You are not behind.�You are moving through.
Save this for slower days
Gentle support matters
Healing doesn’t rush
This shall pass!

Read this slowly if your mood feels low.

Sleep is healing
Rest deeply
Rest supports recovery�Sleep restores balance�Prioritise sleep

“This phase is not permanent… even if it feels that way.”
�Hypnotherapy uses gentle imagination to guide the nervous system toward safety and hope.�There is no rushing here.
Your mind knows how to heal when given permission.
�Gently imagine a future version of you — steady, safe, at ease.�The one who has already come through this.�Calmer. Lighter. Steady.�Let them offer you reassurance now.
Notice how they look at you now.
Notice what they want you to know.�Let them sit beside you.
Let their reassurance settle in.

Future-pacing is a powerful hypnotherapy technique.�It reminds the subconscious that change is already possible.
Let that reassurance be enough for today 🌿

Read below to support your cycle.

Winter
(your period/bleed days, approx Day 1-5)

Your period is not the time to power through.
It’s the time to power down.
Rest isn’t laziness — it’s regulation.
When you honour Winter, your whole cycle benefits.
You have permission to stop explaining. ❄️

You are hibernating for the winter
You have permission to:

Rest!
Hibernate (mentally if physically is not possible)
Say No!
Keep your power
Leave the cleaning
Book a day or two off work
Get comfy
Lie in (guilt-free)
Not engage in useless convos (save it for spring)
Watch tv/scroll as you wish
Walk over run
Sit over stand
Lie over sit
Journal and reflect the month ahead

Spring
(Post bleed days approx Day 5-11)

Energy doesn’t come back all at once.
It whispers first.
Stretch. Breathe. Follow what feels light.
Spring rewards gentleness 🌱

Helloo! Good Morning World

Gently awaken into movement - yoga/pilates/strength
Enjoy the bubble of energy returning
Ideas popping up
Ease into it - not too much too soon
Go to things that make you happy
See people who make you laugh
Let hassles bounce off you -
Eat lighter, more protein less carbs

Breathe even if its fizzling up

Summer
(Post ovulation approx Day 12-18)

Confidence is high.
Charisma is flowing.
Just remember — not every “yes” needs to be said out loud 😌🔥
Let Summer serve you, not overbook you.

Woo-Yeh!
Be careful making plan that seem like a good idea!
Enjoy your hot queen power!
Flirt if you want
Use your confidence to get things done you need to
‘Yes yes, No no” you rule! You decide!
Implementing your ideas!
Completing tasks - moving on!

Autumn
(Nesting phase approx Day 19-28+)
Remember this gets longer in perimenopause

Sensitivity rises here for a reason.
It’s data — not drama.
Cancel the plans.
Cook the food.
Protect your energy.
Autumn is wisdom 🍂

Tell your inner critic to **** off!
No need for that negative voice
Push away the self doubt!

Cancel the plans you made in the summer that def weren’t thought through
Don’t make new ones yet.
Slow down
Eat more comfy food
Permission for good carbs -
Start to say no
Start to nest
ready for hibernation
Batch cook
Plan your winter rest

Perimenopause Anxiety

A signal — not a failure

Support your body:

Less caffeine
Regular nourishment
Slower breathing

Support your subconscious

You may begin to notice a sense of safety returning…
You are safe right now.

Hypnotherapy works by speaking the language of the subconscious —
gentle, permissive, and reassuring.

There is nothing to force.

Just space to soften.

Night Sweats
Perimenopause night sweats don’t just disrupt sleep, they affect mood, resilience, and how you cope the next day.

Broken nights often point to a nervous system stuck in night-time overdrive, not simply a hormone issue.

Practical support matters: magnesium, a cool sleep space, and a consistent bedtime all help signal safety to the body.

But when the subconscious remains on alert, sleep can still feel light and fractured.

Hypnotherapy works at the level where night-time disturbance begins by calming the subconscious and supporting deeper sleep cycles.

As the nervous system settles, the body no longer needs to stay “on watch” through the night.

Sleep improves when the subconscious feels safe.
And when rest returns, everything else feels more manageable too. 🌙

Mood Swings
Perimenopause changes how the nervous system processes stress.
That’s why mindset tools alone often fall short.
Hypnotherapy supports emotional regulation by integrating subconscious responses not suppressing them.
Stability comes from safety, not self-control.

Irregular Periods
Your body hasn’t lost the plot, it’s changing rhythm.�
Best advice is to track your cycle,
Eat more protein that carbohydrates,
Rest when you need.
Hypnotherapy supports internal hormonal rhythm.
Hormones follow safety, not pressure.
When the nervous system softens, rhythm reorganises.
Your body knows how.�Your body responds to inner regulation.

Hot flushes aren’t random — they’re stress + hormones talking.
You can help yourself by reducing alcohol, caffeine and be mindful of your added sugar that can cause your blood sugar to spike that stimulated anxiety feelings.
You can use hypnotherapy to cool the body through nervous system regulation.
Hypnosis retrains temperature control from the inside out.
Connect to your inner control centre and take back control of your symptoms.
What do you do to help yourself?

Clinical studies show hypnosis can significantly reduce menopausal hot flushes — a JAMA trial found over a 50% drop in frequency and severity with daily self-hypnosis. UK hypnotherapy bodies also note evidence for symptom relief.
