Hi Sam, having chemotherapy treatment today. Arrived at Mount Alvernia and be was 129/89 which is the lowest it’s been for 18 months so all the techniques you have shown me are paying off! Thank you!

Its not just that Reflexology helps my clients experience much deeper levels of relaxation - its that Reflexology can be a stepping stone on your journey of tools that you can use to feel better and improve your autonomic response - so i teach my clients self hypnosis and meditation and psychosensory techniques so they have their own kit 😀

Who is ready to reset now?

January is tough and it is very easy to spend the entire month self admonishing for not keeping to that ideal version of you that you said you were going to start being in 2026.

How's that working out for you?

Its time to reset -

I do this every year, but I also recreate habits that last and are attainable and easy to latch on to my day.

First and foremost is what I make sure I notice and what I do for my mental health, focus and nervous system.

I have done it (well actually started when I was 8) throughout my life and it has become a daily mainstay, it supports my ADHD, aids anxiety and makes me feel connected to my family, clients and my values.

I have taught Mindful Meditation and Self Hypnosis.in schools since it was "allowed" into the curriculum for little ones, teens, teachers and heads.

Private clients use it to rediscover themselves - 10 weeks to rediscover what makes you tick, what you used to love but somehow let go of, how you communicate, what you pay attention to, what you decide to let go of and how you adjust your physiology so you sleep well and feel well.

I am running the course from my therapy room, a warm, welcoming, quiet space where over 10 sessions you can become part of a small community of supportive, like minded people who are looking for meaning to what they do. There is ample safe parking - amenities.

If you want to rediscover what makes you feel alive and what depletes you and quietly steers you towards your goals then please join me.

Each class is £12 - 70 minutes - you are given some simple practical things you can weave into your day that enhance your well being - but its not homework - its an option.

I am currently polling times so have a look what suits you best and let me know.

6pm - 7:15pm - Tuesday or Wednesday or 6:30 - 7:30pm Friday or Sunday 5pm - 6:15pm

For those who are too far away from Liphook (GU30 7AN) it is something I teach online as well so just message me.

It's such a wonderful way to slow everything down and take care of yourself for peace and longevity.

How reflexology works.

Clients have favourite parts of their treatments, depending on what they need support with.
Clients also have different preferences in pressure and how their body responds to these special moments of peace and rejuvenation.

When we work with the reflexes - every reflex can relay messages to the brain that create a pathway for adjustment and reconnection.
This can work well with babies, children and teens right up to wise elders and the principles have been used for thousands of years.

January can be an aggressive month of beating our bodies into submission with one new gruelling health commitment or diet after another - or it can be a beautiful moment to say, this year I commit to taking care of my body and mind, gently and consistently to restore my well being.

Reflexology can be your road map to reframing the year ahead as one of self care and kindness.

I have appointments for February.

Best wishes on your journey wherever you are...

Treatments give you a chance to reframe, take time for your own well being, improve blood flow through your body, release stress and boost muscle recovery in both your face and body.
You can think of it as pampering but you can also think of it as making your health a priority.

I have appointments for February for Reflexology and Natural Lift Facial Massage.

Would love to see you thrive...

I have been a teacher in mainstream and specialised education for 25 years and have used therapeutic techniques throughout those settings because they help a young person have understanding and agency with regards their rapidly fluctuating emotions.

So often the education setting is fraught with stress and tension which I have come to understand from both the Head, teacher and pupils point of view. The pressure on everyone is immense with deadlines, planning, curriculum challenges and differentiation.

School settings are frantic and constantly in flux and this can leave our young people feeling exhausted emotionally and physically. What I have found is that young people can navigate their way through these challenges if they understand the why behind their emotions - giving them the knowledge that, when they feel dis-regulated, nine times out of ten, it is the brain's natural way of assessing the situation with a fight, flight, freeze or faun response.

Once young people understand the techniques they can use (quickly and efficiently) to bring themselves back to "okay," then they start to adapt and respond in more helpful ways.

This why mind and body strategies are so helpful and can be used throughout a young persons life once they know how; this will then translate to other areas of their life in the future when they face challenges. You just have to think how important these ways of calming the nervous system and being able to feel safe would help you as you were growing up.

Right now, most of my clients are young people navigating their way through very challenging learning environments and what is very clear is that giving a young person understanding, agency and clarity over why they may feel a certain way is like giving them they key to a brighter future.

So how is everyone?
How was the festive season for you? I do hope it was filled with connection and time to rest and reflect..
My favourite bits so far... definitely time with my loved ones, the roasts, walks and Uno!
It allowed me to cherish the laughter and time off the hamster wheel.

But I do love my health and exercise, both mentally and physically; I love creating those menus for the week that will keep the kids and my partner and I on track and the practices I do that keep me regulated and mentally grounded.

It is this balance between exercise, meditation, sleep, self hypnosis, reading and recovery that makes me feel like I am really living my best life. And I will be bringing all that in to 2026.

What are your uplifting, "non negotiables" that you can bring in to the New Year?
This is the best time to reset and reflect.

If, however, you are finding that it is the things that got in the way in 2025, perhaps poor sleep, poor nutrition choices, feeling constantly low or run down, losing confidence - and these issues stop you from looking forward to 2026 - then you may consider a session of Hypnotherapy to give you clarity and motivation, or my 6 session course in reaching your healthy weight goals.
And if you want to reset your circadian rhythm and sleep well, learn all the right tools you need to maximise your sleep, reduce digestive issues, or increase your ability to relax deeply, then a couple of Reflexology or Natural Lift Facial Massage and Massage sessions may be just what you need.

I hope this post encourages you to reflect on your strengths and wins from 2025 and identify those areas you want to change.

With best wishes,

Sam

I am taking booking for January now if you need that boost ;0)

What does the New Year hold for you?
Are you ready to reset your relationship with food?
Do you want to know how to stop cravings?
Do you want to know how to stop eating poorly?
Do you want to start feeling comfortable with the way you look and feel?
Are you preoccupied with food?
Does food become a comfort or replacement for something?
Would you like to know how you can completely shift out of that self-sabotage relationship with food into one of nourishment, health and well being
Are you fed up of ending up in an endless cycle of poor eating, yo yo dieting, and negative self image?

Let me show you how in 7 sessions you can easily reinvent yourself – and have some fun on the way!

If you head over to google you can read my 5 star reviews or message me for a chat about what that reinvented you looks like ;0)

7/11 Breathing - Enjoy the Calming Effect it will have on your body!

Breathing techniques produce a bodily response that lowers your anxiety in a very physical way.
Deep-breathing techniques all have one thing in common: they work by stimulating what is known as the parasympathetic nervous system; so when we feel highly threatened but can’t do anything to change the situation, or know that staying calm would help us, breathing deeply is invaluable. Out-breaths decrease our blood pressure and slow our heart rate –Practising a breathing technique a few times a day can lower our overall stress levels in the long term.
7:11 breathing is one of the most powerful; It is just as it sounds:
1 – breathe in for a count of 7
2 – then breathe out for a count of 11
Make sure that, when you are breathing in, you are doing deep ‘diaphragmatic breathing’ (so when you breathe in try putting your hand on your tummy – it should go out as you breathe in and go in when you breathe out) It is kind of the opposite of what we normally do.
Or if it is easier for you - in for 3 and out to 5, or whatever suits you best, as long as the out-breath is longer than the in-breath.
Continue in this way for 5–10 minutes or longer if you have time – the very act of counting to 7 or 11 is a distraction technique, helping take your mind off your immediate concerns.

I will be sharing more of these techniques along with self-hypnosis practices to enhance your focus and well-being in my 10 week course starting in January in 2 locations.

Meet yourself where you are now.

Think about all the things that have led you to now.

And how are you doing?

What are the words you are telling yourself?

What is the story that is running your program again and again?

Who is that voice in your head that tells you what you should be doing rather than what you love doing?

The most amazing fact is, if you are not happy with how things are you can change your attitude towards it.

You can reframe, take stock, focus on what you do want, what you are excited about achieving.

Rather than run away from that story that has shaped your journey so far, just really go for the future you.

One immediate thing you can do today is rewrite the story going forwards.

And also think about the way you will look and behave, how you will relate to others and the things you will say to yourself when you are living that future you.

You are aways able to reinvent yourself.
